"Latitude 15 unscheduled stay"
1 night Arrived 8 Jan 2019
"As it was not in my itinerary I was not expecting to stay so knew nothing about this hotel. I loved the unusual decor and decorations in the room and the corridors.
I found out later Charlie and Jo's son Tom is one of the architects of the Latitude Hotels and he was telling me about the person who chose the decor and sourced the distressed frames and quirky decorations.
The room and bathroom I was given were huge, it was just a shame I was there such a short time. I had dinner which was very good. The staff friendly and helpful. The only negative it is quite a way from the airport which was made worse by the fact the driver drove very slowly!" See all these reviews: 8n in Zimbabwe; 6n in Zambia

"Latitude 15"
1 night Arrived 22 Oct 2018
"On previous trips to Lusaka we have stayed at the Radisson Blu but have not had good experiences, So this time we used Latitude 15 which was a much better experience.
It is a smaller operation being more of a boutique hotel with good quality food and staff who were most pleasant.
Although a bit of a longer journey to the airport it was worth the extra time needed and this was hardly noticeable as we were going for early morning flights and were on the road before rush hour." See all these reviews: 7n in Zambia; 2n in Botswana; 1n in South Africa

" Pleasant and Comfortable Lodging"
1 night Arrived 23 Sep 2018
"We were pleasantly surprised at what a pleasing and comfortable B&B this was.
It had been a long flight and when we arrived we were greeted by a nice staff member with a beverage. Once checked in, we found our room spacious and comfortable and enjoyed walking around looking at the art and photos on the walls in the lounge area as well as the halls. Nice poolside atmosphere with comfortable furnishings in which to have a drink before dinner. We enjoyed two meals, dinner and breakfast, and found a nice variety of dishes from which to choose and the food was very tasty and well prepared.
The staff at Latitude are very nice and attentive to travelers needs and comfort." See all these reviews: 11n in Zambia
