"Latitude 15 review"
2 nights Arrived 26 Oct 2024
"Great atmosphere and ambience, with wonderful examples of original local art on every side.
Room was excellent, large, well equipped with everything needed. Breakfast was excellent, and also the bar and restaurant for the evenings were excellent, with a most interesting dinner menu.
Short walk in the morning to some excellent shopping malls. Definitely a great place for some time before and after safaris." See all these reviews: 13n in Zambia

1 night Arrived 15 Oct 2024
"Wonderful decor, some outstanding pieces of original local art on every side.
The room was large, well equipped with everything that I needed for a short stay. Breakfast was excellent, and the bar and restaurant for the evenings were also great, with a very original menu.
A short walk in the morning brought me to a number of excellent shopping malls. Great place for a stay between safaris." See all these reviews: 13n in Zambia

"Latitude 15 review"
1 night Arrived 10 Oct 2024
"Latitude 15 was a wonderful stylish boutique hotel with a lovely bar and restaurant where we enjoyed pre-dinner drinks and dinner. Rooms were large and nicely furnished with local art. The art in the corridors was amazing.
There are two pools (though it was slightly chilly when we were there for swimming) and a casual poolside restaurant during the day. It was nice to see Zambians at a conference in the business bit and eating in the restaurant rather than just tourists, this gave the hotel a nice vibe.
A good place for an overnight stop in Lusaka, though it is a 40 minute drive from the airport and if you have a really early flight, there are probably places nearer the airport. We enjoyed seeing a slice of Lusakan life on the drive to the hotel." See all these reviews: 11n in Zambia

1 night Arrived 2 Oct 2024
"An excellent hotel to stay if needed in Lusaka. In traffic it took 40 mins from the airport but early in the morning to the airport it only took 25mins. Our room was upgraded on arrival and was very large and comfortable to repack and organise ourselves with a fabulous bath and shower.
We had an evening meal in the main restaurant which was fabulous and very reasonably priced. We were certainly not expecting it to be of such a high standard. They put out a very nice buffet breakfast (with takeaway cartons) very early so if leaving as we had to at 5am you can help yourself to take with you.
Extremely friendly staff in all areas." See all these reviews: 17n in Zambia; 3n in Namibia; 3n in Botswana

1 night Arrived 12 Sep 2024
"Very welcoming and accommodating staff. They helped with providing a takeaway breakfast as we were being picked up at 530am.
Outdoor areas very relaxing and two pool areas available (although we didn't use them). Enjoyed dinner al fresco.
only 'disappointing ' feature was that we were only staying one night!" See all these reviews: 5n in Zambia; 3n in Zimbabwe

"Hotel was comfortable with fairly good food.
It seemed to take ages to get to the hotel when we were tired from our trip.
We would have preferred something closer to the airport" See all these reviews: 7n in Zambia

"Latitude 15 - good intro to Zambia"
1 night Arrived 8 Sep 2024
"Room was excellent with a large bathroom.
I did have to ask for some help to close the door that opened onto the garden properly, as I was on the ground floor and wanted it to be closed properly and this was done almost immediately.
Very helpful and friendly staff.
I ate dinner in the bar area and it was delicious with friendly staff, excellent food and a good atmosphere.
Breakfast was superb - excellent selection." See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia

"Latitude 15 review"
1 night Arrived 5 Sep 2024
"The hotel was about a 30 minute drive from the airport in a nice area of Lusaka.
After a long flight ( we had a 6 hour layover in Doha) we were welcomed by Tours Africa at the airport and taken straight there.
I was a boutique hotel in African style and the facilities and staff were all very good.
Although we only had an overnight stay I would recommend this venue for potential travellers. In fact most of the people we met a camps had stayed there under the same circumstances. It would appear to be a travel agents recommended choice" See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia; 3n in Zimbabwe
