The most popular place in town for those on a budget. There's plenty of space for campers, as well as dorms and double and twin A-frame chalets. Staff can give you info and tips on travelling in Malawi.
It's a little faded and the bar and restaurant are a tad poky, but the rooms are comfortable and there's a picturesque, sprawling garden out the back. Rates don't include breakfast.
St Peter' Offers excellent, clean and safe rooms with mosquito nets, all of which open out onto a peaceful courtyard garden. It's quiet and part of the parish so guests should be respectful.
Upstairs in a large building near the bus station. The bright blue exterior hides a pleasant, airy lodge, with wide corridors, breezy rooms with fans, mosquito nets and hot water.
This is the best-value place in town. It's located bang in the centre of the Old Town action. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and stylish - all white gauze and linen topped off with bright African prints.
Heuglin' A lovely guesthouse with tasteful rooms, pleasant gardens and a pool. There's also a great wildlife library here. It's 3km north of the City Centre. There's a restaurant for residents and rates include breakfast.
This place is all jungle prints and wooden décor with a small bar and a pleasant veranda, although the staff's obsession with Western pop music may interrupt any plans for relaxation.
Has large but shabby rooms, which vary considerably in size and condition so check a few out. There's a nice terrace café dishing up good burgers and Indian food.
Nelly' This is cosy and popular, with conservatively decorated rooms, a pretty garden, and an internet café. There's a restaurant for residents and rates include breakfast.
Set amid sprawling, manicured gardens, this hotel is well appointed (there's a business centre, car hire and an Air Malawi desk) but rather uninspiring.
