    my recent stay at a hotel in lilongwe was pleasant, but sunbird capital completely exceeded my expectations. the staff was friendly, the room was quiet, and the food at the restaurant was amazing. the location was also convenient for my meetings.

    The buffet at dinner was absolutely delicious! The variety of food options changed daily, keeping things interesting. Make sure to ask for the kachumbali, a mouth watering chili salad.

    The check-in experience could use improvement. It seems that the staff may benefit from more training, as the receptionist I encountered lacked knowledge and professionalism.

    The hotel is located in a very convenient area, close to the convention center, making it an ideal choice for business travelers. The on-site restaurant offers a great dining experience with a variety of delicious food options. The downstairs sports bar is a perfect place to relax and enjoy a drink, especially if the Wi-Fi in the rooms is weak.

    The parking situation is always disorganized and often full, causing inconvenience for guests.

    Had a blast during my Easter stay! The gym had all the equipment I needed for my morning workout. The pool was fantastic, its warm water was soothing after my swim. The breakfast buffet was to die for, serving different and delicious items every day. Love how their location was near the airport and had lots of trees around. A complimentary shuttle to the airport and free Wi-Fi were the cherries on top.

    Although some room service dishes were not up to my standards, it was an expensive option. The music played during the wedding hosted at the property was so loud that it shook my room windows.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location near the edge of town in the direction of the airport was perfect. We were able to easily explore the city and also have quick access to the airport when we needed it. The service at this hotel was exceptional. From room service to car hire and dry cleaning, we felt well taken care of. The housekeeping staff kept our room immaculately clean and the shops/commercial services were a convenient bonus. The airport shuttle was reliable and the welcome drink upon arrival was a nice touch.

    We would recommend this hotel to everyone.

The room was comfortable and clean, and everything worked well, including the power. The location of the hotel was convenient, and I appreciated the cleanliness throughout.

    The hotel's location in a park which is very pleasant. The cleanliness was impressive, with well-maintained rooms and a tidy environment. The staff were friendly and accommodating, always going above and beyond to assist. Additionally, the hotel facilities were top-notch, with a convenient on-site restaurant and a great sports bar downstairs.

    I recently stayed at a hotel on the outskirts of town and found it to be a pleasant surprise. The hotel has a lovely location near a park and is just a short drive from the airport. I enjoyed dining in both restaurants on-site, especially the one with an extensive breakfast spread. The rooms are spacious and clean with modern facilities.

    The hotel charged an unexpected additional fee for using the on-site business center.
