The location is amazing. Beautiful views and the mountain right there for hiking. The food at the hotel was wonderful. Room was clean and well-equipped. Staff were friendly and helpful. I did two hiking tours and a trip to Satemwa tea plantation; all were great and worthwhile.
Just a bit more information/help from reception staff/guides with the tours. I was late for the plantation tour because the taxi wasn't booked early enough.

Very nice hotel in Mulanje. Probably one of the best in the area with a nice view. Definitely high standard for Malawi. We stayed here before climbing the mountain. Staff was kind enough to let us leave our luggage since we'd be climbing the mountain for a couple of days. Especially, the food manager was amazing! He accommodated all our requests and was even kind enough to specially prepare food for us. They didn't have iced tea in stock, so he made it freshly for us. He even cooked an amazing Sri Lankan 4 course meal for us (which wasn't on the menu) because we expressed interest. He made us one of the best curry we've ever had. If you're in Mulanje you should at the very least stop by for the food.
It was a bit difficult to find the hotel. Make sure you don't blindly follow google maps because it might send you up an impossible to drive dirt road. There is a paved road up to the hotel.

Baboons in the garden, attentive staff, delicious food, comfortable rooms, an incredible view, hiking trails right from the property, a pretty pool and waterfall just a short path away
Nothing, though don’t leave your shoes outside your room overnight because of the baboons!

It was well laid out. Very attentive staff. Rooms were well equipped and very clean. Good choice on the food menu .
Drinks overpriced and not well presented. No need for a mosquito net in air conditioned room. Net was too short to be effective in any event of it being necessary.

Beautiful setting, couple of nice walks, great view for sundowners, room was comfortable and clean, friendly staff. Good base for exploring the Mulanje area.
Bathroom was a bit tired but fine. Security light outside the room was very bright at night, even with the curtains closed. They were unable to isolate individual lights, so on the second night they removed the bulb.

Memorable view of Mulanje peak and mountainside forest. Serene atmosphere. Baboons visit occasionally. Competent, friendly staff. Decent breakfast with fresh fruit offered. Good coffee.
No free outlet for charging in room— unless you unplug the TV from the ceiling. Sausage offered at breakfast was turning.
