My first stay was unplanned, I was feeling ill in South Luangwa and we decided to stay at Protea Chipata while I rest and recover. The hospitality and care from the entire team was just wonderful. They even catered gluten free meals (I have celiac disease) and showed such great concern, it left a lasting impression. Our next visit, we received the most warmest welcome back. So many team members came up to greet us and welcome us back. It’s just so special. The meals are prepared with such pride, the service is impeccable. I can’t name everyone personally as every single staff member was great, but Kelvin, Zak’s, Nyirenda and the rest of team are just amazing. Paul the guard is such a delight! We highly recommend you enjoy the wonderful stay at Protea Chipata.

Exceptional hotel!
Amazing hotel with outstanding customer service. We’re from Australia and on bicycles. We were warmly welcomed the moment we arrived and made to feel special! The food was exceptional! Dinner and breakfast surpassed our expectations. We’ve been travelling for 4 years so it was a lovely surprise ( congratulations to the chef!) The only negative comment is that the location on google maps is incorrect so we ended up cycling an extra 10 kms ! However just a minor point as the hotel certainly was a 10/10 for us.

Easily the best hotel in Chipata. The front desk staff are EXCEPTIONAL. I have travelled all over the world and been lucky enough to experience some of the best hotels in the world and I can safely say that from a service, attitude and friendliness point of view, Protea Hotel Chipata is right up there amongst the very best. Whilst the hotel itself is good enough with clean rooms, great facilities and proper WiFi, the staff make this hotel everything it is.

Staff were wonderful and helpful. Dining room is spacious and lovely. Supper and breakfast meals were excellent.
The building is showing some wear. The pool seemed very cloudy so unsafe to swim in my opinion.
