Protea Hotel Blantyre Ryalls
8.5 (27 reviews)

Protea Hotel Blantyre Ryalls ★★★★

📍 2 Hanover Ave, Blantyre

"I recently stayed at this hotel and had a generally pleasant experience. The facilities were well-maintained, and the services provided by the staff were excellent. The breakfast was good and satisfying. However, I did feel a bit uncomfortable with the room decor. The posters of stamps from the British protectorate era, Nyasaland, were a bit unsettling for me. It would be great if the hotel could consider updating the room decor to reflect a more modern and inclusive atmosphere. Overall, I had a good stay and would recommend this hotel for its excellent facilities, services, and food."

Crossroads Hotel Blantyre
8.4 (19 reviews)

Crossroads Hotel Blantyre ★★★

📍 Crossroads Mall, Blantyre

"I really enjoyed my stay here and would stay again. Staff are friendly and responsive by email. I got an airport pickup for $30. The room and bathroom were very spacious and even came with a tub! The breakfast is an extensive buffet—not to my taste but I think the locals like it. As for clean food, you can get fresh fruit, coffee with milk, nuts, cucumber and boiled egg. There’s a nice lobby where you can hang out and charge your phone. There is a restaurant inside the hotel but I didn’t eat there. There is an ATM right outside the hotel and inside the mall. I had a room that faced the back side with a lovely view of trees and some urban maize fields. Room had AC and lots of light too."

Chinyonga Guesthouse

Chinyonga Guesthouse ★★★

📍 52PR+762, Kalolo Rd, Blantyre

"An excellent guest house. So so location, but friendly and helpful staff. Very comfortable and reasonable food. However my stay was somewhat spoilt by having money stolen.from my room The owner made enquiries, but to no avail. If you do decide to stay, I would advise not to leave any valuables in your room"

Casa Mia Lodge & Restaurant
8.5 (19 reviews)

Casa Mia Lodge & Restaurant ★★★

📍 Kabula Hl Rd, Blantyre

"We liked the place and the restaurant where we took lunch and breakfast. The room is not so new, but it was clearn enough and the bed was comfortable. The staff are friendly and supportive to our requests. One bad experience was that the other guest came to our room wrongly and tried opening the door. He tried several times even his key did not work. I would suggest the room numer should be put on the door or anywhere to find easily."

Amaryllis Hotel Blantyre ★★★★★
"Home away from home. Worth recommending to friends and partners. Night view of the city is amazing. So overall hotel is properly situated and i love morning walks so i get a chance to go for walks in the nearby quiet neighbourhood as well as the Gym and pool give you amazing view of the city. The breakfast options too are great as you find a variety to choose from. If you are in Blantyre Amaryllis is definitely the place to stay and I always look forward to the next visit."

Chinyonga Guesthouse ★★★
"This was our 4th visit with a fairly large group of 22 faculty and University students. Accommodations continue to improve. The new buildings are fantastic with balconies facing west and great views. We arranged for dinners and box lunches which permitted great efficiency as our teams visited hospitals, clinics and university facilities at Malawi University for Science and Technology. The chef created a wide variety of affordable good food. We could not be happier with the manager, Chikondi, and her most gracious staff. We look forward to our 5th visit later this year!"

Heritage by Serendib ★★★
"The room was spacious, and the location was very convenient, just a few minutes' walk from the nearby wholesale market. The owner was very friendly; knowing we were heading to our second city, he helped us book a taxi and even gave us a discount. I'll definitely stay here again next time I come."
