Protea Hotel Lusaka Tower

Good location, near shopping mall and university campus. The stake house in the hotel is excellent.

The check-in is friendly, to the point and straightforward. The rooms are spacious, clean and well appointed with everything one needs. The breakfast is good but the dinner menu is a bit limited. Especially in the evening, the restaurant on the 9th floor is particularly cold. The AC's are on top speed and there is no way they will turn them down. If affected, flee to the bar on the opposite side, or better yet, sit on the terrace with pool beyond the bar. Check-out is again simple and quick.

I was kinda hesitant about the hotel with other major names available in the country but found this to be just right. The rooms were semi spacious and I am highly surprised as a Titanium Member I did not receive an upgrade. I was highly pissed that I was not told about the gym being available across the street. These were two things for me that were completely missed and highly disappointed that were missed. For three weeks I was never advised on any of these or offered an upgrade, another person walks in with a lower status than me and received all the information and an upgrade. As stated, the room and bed were perfect with no issues. The room was cool enough just as I like it and the bathroom was very spacious and the shower. On a budget or not I would still recommend this hotel as the malls are very close in walking distance and contribute to the amenities. The restaurant and staff were extremely helpful and amazing to see everyday. They made the stay very welcoming and loving, the restaurant staff and two chefs making the omelets really made my stay and are the MVPs.

We stayed at the Protea Hotel Tower both before and after our Zambia safari. Clean spacious rooms, very nice and helpful staff. The restaurant on the top floor was wonderful. Great steaks! The favorable exchange rate made it quite reasonably priced too. Location is good too, a short walk to a nearby mall.

Hotel is located 20-30 minutes from Lusaka International Airport. It is good for business stay with clean and spacious room, functioning shower and good room service. Breakfast at the restaurant on the top floor is good range and quality.

If you want a good nights sleep do not go - extremely loud disco music reverberates up through the entire hotel up until 4am even on a weeknight. Worst night I have had in a hotel. This is the second time I have visited the last time was at a weekend so I assumed that the music was possibly a weekend thing but apparently not.
