"An excellent guest house. So so location, but friendly and helpful staff. Very comfortable and reasonable 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."

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 ★★★
"I stayed at Chinyonga Guest House with my husband as we attended a friend's wedding in Blantyre. We had a pleasant stay and the staff are very polite and responsive. Spent sometime at the pool and our dinner was served by the pool as well. Very well cooked food and nice basic breakfast. The room was clean as well. Only request would be that they should have mosquito repellent readily available in the rooms. Definitely recommend!"

Protea Hotel Blantyre Ryalls ★★★★
"I always look forward to my stay at the Ryalls. Each time I arrive it is a feeling of coming home❤️. Greeted by warm friendly faces, the personal touch of a welcome gift (home baked biscuits 😋), and checking in on how you are continuously during your stay. The rooms are comfortable and offer everything you need. Two restaurants and bars within the vicinity and beautiful gardens where you can unwind after a long day of work. The conference rooms are spacious and work well for meetings or conference needs. I can't wait for my next visit!"

Casa Mia Lodge & Restaurant ★★★
"Pros: Quiet location (no traffic noise) A short (daytime) walk to a busy part of Blantyre. Good size room. Cons: The safety deposit box was not working - I was told 'it's an old one and so can't be fixed, you can keep things in the reception safe'. Leaking water in bathroom. Very expensive drinks at the bar - 14,000 kwacha / $10 + tourism tax for a bottle of Castle beer (imported from SA). The other, local, beers are 6000 kwacha plus tourism tax so also expensive - Malawi has seen some huge inflation but I paid less than 3000 for the same beers at a lodge in Mulanje. The bill on check out added a 'tourism levy' (tax) to everything I ordered in the restaurant - I was not told about this when ordering and was not charged a tourism levy in any of the other 3 hotels/lodges I stayed in during my time in Malawi. This could have been in the T&Cs however and I just missed it. Breakfast is not particularly great (a la carte) - i had to return undercooked sausages. Overall, the lodge itself is in a good location and i would return again. I would skip the restaurant and go to the Crossroads hotel restaurant which has reasonable prices and good quality food (but no alcohol). Casa Mia definitely had the most expensive beers I found in Malawi, although the very friendly and interesting owner was kind enough to buy me a few so I guess it balanced out."
