1 night Arrived 12 Jul 2024
"We were allocated room four which was pretty noisy because it is by the restaurant and bar.
We arrived late in the evening and it took an hour to get drinks and a meal because it was a busy Friday night.
The staff are very helpful and friendly." See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia

1 night Arrived 4 Jul 2024
"To maximise our time in the bush, we decided to get the late flight from Mfuwe and overnight in Lusaka before heading home.
Latitude 15 is a lovely boutique hotel and, as we arrived earlier than expected, they were flexible in moving our dinner booking forward.
A nice place to chill with good food and a great atmosphere." See all these reviews: 14n in Zambia

"Easy check in, despite arriving early from the airport. Nice quiet room at the back of the property. We enjoyed dinner.
The hotel is very lively, full of locals which is good to see. We had booked a table for dinner before leaving the UK which was good as we were in the dining room ( it was surprisingly cold in Lusaka in early July)." See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia

1 night Arrived 25 Jun 2024
"This is a great hotel for a short stay before or after a safari in Zambia. The accommodation is very good, the food excellent and the hotel is full of interesting African art. It’s also not far from the airport so transfers are very easy. Would definitely use again if visiting Zambia."

"Just a wonderful boutique hotel with gorgeous decor.
We spent a lovely first afternoon and night in Zambia here, had a great meal of nshima and grilled fish/goat stew at the restaurant and relaxed with some Mosi at the bar afterwards." See all these reviews: 11n in Zambia

1 night Arrived 21 Jun 2024
"We decided to stay in Lusaka on our first day as we had changed aircraft in Doha during the night and thought that trying to go straight onto our first lodge on the same day was both too risky and would be too tiring.
As it happened the flights worked perfectly and we arrived at Latitude by about 9 30.
It is a lovely boutique hotel and our room was ready within an hour of arriving.
A nice place to chill after the journey with good food and a great atmosphere." See all these reviews: 14n in Zambia

"Latitude 15 review"
1 night Arrived 14 Jun 2024
"Latitude 15 was a good place to rest up before going down to South Luangwa The staff were excellent and the hotel offers a welcome change from the large international chain hotels.
I was, however, disappointed to discover that no menu service was offered at breakfast and that food was restricted to a fairly average buffet. When checking out the desk told me that I should have been offered a breakfast menu as well as access to the buffet.
I hope that this was an aberration rather than a change in breakfast policy!" See all these reviews: 11n in Zambia

"Probably the most efficient solution if you need an overnight stay in Lusaka on your Safari.
However, service was poor, environment extremely noisy, and rooms decidedly average." See all these reviews: 13n in Zambia

"The accomodations and hotel were very nice. The service in the restaurants was very slow and the food was mediocre. We had some minor issues with the TV. I would stay there in the future."

2 nights Arrived 27 May 2024
"A very comfortable base after flying in or coming back from the bush. The room is very spacious, Gardenside Deluxe, with an enormous bathroom and a nice terrace with two chairs.
There’s a very lively vibe here, a good mix of tourists, expats and local people who come for drinks or dinner or visit the several small businesses that hold office on the property. Also there’s a lot to see as the walls, nooks and crannies are full of artefacts, historical maps, etc.
The neighborhood is pleasant too, very green. We walked to a nearby shopping centre to check out the local businesses and also to a nice art gallery about 10 minutes away, people on the street are friendly and it all felt safe." See all these reviews: 16n in Zambia
