We had a peaceful night at Burley Guesthouse. The rooms are well appointed with a comfortable bed and ensuite. The food choices are limited but good quality with a reasonable variety. We placed our order for breakfast and dinner on arrival and nominated an eating time. The dining room is cosy with tables set with fresh flowers. This is the perfect place for a short stay to relax but with limited amenities other than a gorgeous garden and a billiard table, you will need to organise daily activities away from the guesthouse. You help yourself to drinks at the bar, using an honour system and paid for on departure. Drinks are pricey with white wine ranging from $15 - $20 AUD (about 18,000 - 20,000 Kwacha) per glass. Local beer was okay. Staff are friendly and helpful, with Memory and Isaac looking after us beautifully.

Very helpful staff, nice rooms, very well maintained compound all at a reasonable price. Quiet garden and the chance to have diner in their own restaurant. Would like to take the chance, to again thank Memory for her help in organizing a ride out of Lilongwe to Lake Malawi. Excellent. 5 Stars deluxe:)

The Burley house is a wonderful small hotel with highly professional and friendly staff. It has the best coffee in Malawi available 24x7. And the food is quite nice.

Always good. Huge beds. Crisp linen sheets. Nice food. Good service. Carpet in rooms. Good food. Lovely garden. Stayed here many times and always impressed. Small enough to be intimate but luxurious enough to challenge bigger Lilongwe hotels.

The guesthouse was fantastic! The team is very friendly and kind, thanks to Isaac and Tony for the exceptional service.
The chef is very talented and we had delicious options every day of different style cuisines.
There is also a gym on the property

First dinner was incredible. Huge portions and delicious. Next two were not as good but charged the same price. Asked twice to get the AC fixed.

Relatively new, rhe staff makes efforts to keep their guests satisfied. Internet access, contact numbers and Map needs some work. There are a few structural improvements that could be done, but understandably this will take time and money. Overall, an enjoyable stay. I would gladly book with them in the future.
