"The room was basic, but clean and comfortable. The mosquito net was in great condition. The restaurant steak is delicious, and the included breakfast (and espresso machine!) was excellent.
My only gripe is that the staff seemed not to understand how things worked -- every question I asked had to be communicated to the boss, even really basic things. But, overall a great stay."
"Everything about this hotel is great except for internet connectivity. It is not the best for business travel where you are likely to have virtually meetings while at the hotel. IT is very helpful in providing an individual router upon request which is an improvement but does not always provide uninterrupted connectivity."
"Apparently the property has recently changed ownership, but this was not apparent in any way. Everyone was very welcoming, the food was excellent, the room spacious and tidy. The gardens offer a good place to sit and relax, and were in good condition given that it was towards the end of the dry season. I recommend the Leslie and would stay there again."
"If you're looking for modern conveniences like air conditioning, wifi, great service, and nice rooms, this is Blantyre's best hotel by far. The staff was incredible - it made me realize that Malawi can have a real five star tourism industry if it wants to. Mwai at the front desk is exceptional, as is the manager of the breakfast buffet (short young Malawian woman) and all of the concierge, cleaning, restaurant, and garage staff. Really exceptional on every level. Gym was good, and when I come back, I also want to swim in the pool!"
