The hotel provides clean and comfortable rooms with daily bottled water but lacks modern amenities and has noisy old air conditioning. The dinner area is clean and comfortable, albeit a bit rough around the edges. A good choice for those seeking a homely atmosphere and a garden, suggesting considering a guest house instead.

The rooms were cleaned well every day and included bottled water. Though the old air conditioning was noisy and the lack of real amenities was a downside, they were still comfortable and clean.

The hotel is centrally located, which was convenient for my work; however, it also faces aggressive street vendors and a risky street. The bustling city center can be a bit overwhelming and traffic can be an issue during peak times.
Dining

The dining options were standard, and the location in the town center was convenient, but the waiting time was too long. It's worth considering the nearby dining options for a variety.

The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were equipped with multiple ports supporting various plugs without the need for adapters, yet some were noisy and needed a room change. The service was friendly and accommodating, although a shuttle service cancellation for delayed guests was a plus. The location was ideal for business in Lusaka but not recommended for solo female travelers due to traffic issues. The dining experience varied, from not meeting Marriott standards to enjoyable homemade cakes. Overall, a decent choice depending on your priorities.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, though there was a lingering smell of cigarettes and they appeared a bit worn in some areas. On the bright side, the room had multiple ports accommodating various plug types so no need for adapters, which was convenient. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, going out of their way to accommodate our late check-out request and even preparing breakfast ahead of schedule. However, the central location, while convenient, had its downsides with aggressive street vendors nearby making it a bit uncomfortable.
