Protea Hotel by Marriott Blantyre Ryalls

Protea Hotel by Marriott Blantyre Ryalls

8/10 Good

"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."

The Leslie - Bed & Breakfast

The Leslie - Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"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."
