Ein tolles ruhiges Hotel mit sehr zuvorkommendem Service. Jeder Wunsch wurde erfüllt. Wir werden bei unserem nächsten Aufenthalt in Lilongwe wieder ins Bamboo gehen.

Pros:

Very comfy bed, friendly staff, nice meals.

Cons:

Loud music playing outside on the patio immediately outside my room, which was very audible because the bathroom window was broken and wouldn't close. Staff were quite confused when I asked for the music to be turned off and was initially told it would be on all night, though eventually it was turned down. I find this crazy, especially given the relatively high price for Lilongwe - please turn the music off without guests having to ask! Otherwise the hotel was fantastic so this was a shame.

Would definitely recommend!
Pros:

Great staff!

Cons:

If you’re a light sleeper, request a room upstairs. First floor rooms have a bit of noise from routine maintenance around the property in the mornings.
