    I was made to abandon my breakfast because I booked through booking.com with lower prices and breakfast couldn’t be included. I was frustrated because nothing about paying for breakfast is mentioned on booking.com . I paid $180 for a room and $40 extra was requested for breakfast. Other better options were available at that price only if I knew.

    The Hotel was nice and clean .

    The rooms don't have enough natural light. And also not enough lighting in the room. Dark rooms . Towels were very old. not enough bathrooms amenties not even bathroom sleepers. At breakfast they didn't have normal tea said their supplier had run out of stock. Also they served mostly pork dishes for the meat section. Through our entire the rooms lobby had a very bad smell. 👎

    House keeping Staff services . They allowed us a late checkout without charges.

    Service was poor despite the staff being kind - Room Service was always 1hours late and they had to be reminded to bring food - Aircon was noisy and running like tractor - Ventillation in the bathroom was not good - lots of humidity smell in the corridor on the second level

    Good location of the Hotel, around restaurants and small shopping center

    Stayed here before and actually a radisson VIP member but terrible service, loud noisy rooms despite asking specifically for quiet room, we changed rooms 3 times, I was there for 3 nights even left early.

    Disappointing subpar 5 star
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Superior Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    Disappointing for what is rated as a 5-star hotel, it was a subpar 3 star. its premium price excludes breakfast or nice coffee in the room (only instant coffee sachets and not enough provided in the room). The linen was not impressive and not fresh. The restaurant dinner and breakfast options only offered full buffet, and not a la carte options. The room was far the least impressive, outdated, the low quality finishings were dismal. No stocked-up bar fridge in the room. I have never seen such in a 5 star to say the least is better as certain things are just obvious.

    Good and prime location, 16kms from the international airport. The staff was attentive.

    Not value for money. I was given the choice to pay in Kwacha and they charged me in Sterling Pounds. This was not nice. Prices for breakfast was 550 Kwacha per adut and I was charged 575 Kwacha. When I arrived after 2pm room was not ready. They allocated another room and the bathroom was smelling to sewer. It was not pleasant for the price paid.

    The front dear staff were below par Quick to swipe your card and give you poor service Money first ! A Minister and Former Ambassador was put in a room with a leaking ceiling water in the bathroom. Early arrival in the early hours and I was requested to pay extra or else room would not be available for the Ambassador until checking in time . Attending an International Conference other lawyers who had arrived early experienced this !! On check out the front desk staff neglected to refund my deposit. Again quick to collect slow to perform. Would not recommend this Hotel .

    Our spacious room with a little terrace and garden view exceeded our expectations. We experienced a very warm welcome at the reception. The staff's friendly and attentive care for their guests is outstanding (personalized service: delicious goodies and a lovely card in the room). Buffet breakfast is excellent. In the evening our stay on the terrace of the restaurant was highlighted by fantastic live music.

    The only thing I disliked was that when we got to the hotel to check in,everybody was so busy and there was nobody to help with our luggage.

    I liked how quick they are. I noticed the water in the shower was not getting hot but only lukewarm and I immediately called to the reception. And a few minutes later,they sent someone to come and check it out and fixed the problem.
