1 night Arrived 27 May 2023
"Latitude 15 was a wonderful place to relax, recover a little from jet lag and travel, join up with the rest of our party, and get more excited for the days ahead.
The staff on check in was very helpful and friendly ( in the middle of the night)." See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia

1 night Arrived 18 Oct 2022
"We stayed just one night, arriving mid afternoon. The room and bathroom were spacious, clean and quiet and the staff friendly and helpful.
We did not eat in the restaurant but had a bar snack on the outside terrace from a good choice menu. As we were leaving early by road to our first camp we asked for a picnic breakfast which, apart from the fruit salad, was inedible." See all these reviews: 19n in Zambia

"Latitude 15 review"
1 night Arrived 28 Sep 2022
"We returned to Latitude 15 at the end of our safari and we thought it well worthwhile enjoying the comfort and facilities again for 24 hours before embarking on the journey home to London.
This time my daughter used the spa facilities at The Other Place, a sort of club annex to the main building and gardens, available to hotel guests. A facial and massage was considered to be excellent and good value.
The hotel ordered a taxi to take us to the Lusaka Collective, an outlet for textiles and artefacts made by local women, well worth visiting. It includes goods made by Tribal Textiles, in fact it seemed a different and possibly wider selection than at Tribal Textiles’ own shop on the way to Mfuwe airport."

"Latitude 15 review"
1 night Arrived 20 Sep 2022
"Our rooms were very spacious and comfortable, and very welcoming after an overnight flight to Dubai and onward flight to Lusaka. The bathrooms were well equipped too. We enjoyed meals on the covered terrace area of the restaurant.
We had several hours to spend between checking out and collection for our flight to Mfuwe. We felt welcome to use the restaurant for lunch and sit outside in the garden in this period.
Whilst service was a little on the relaxed side, this was part of our process in recovering from a long journey and the restaurant, bar and reception staff were all very friendly and willing to help, which all contributed to an enjoyable 24 hours stay." See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia

"Latitude 15 transit stay"
1 night Arrived 8 Sep 2022
"A bit run down: for example rusty metals and toilet paper handle was broken.
The staff might be helpful but seem to have partly not enough training: For example nobody was able to regulate the room temperature with the AC, nor did they know how to turn it off.
Food: ok, but nothing more.
In general too expensive for what they do. Next time in Lusaka we shall try another place." See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia; 8n in Malawi
