4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Lilongwe

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Lilongwe is between October and December, when hotel prices may drop. Staying for at least 3 to 4 days is recommended to fully explore the city’s key landmarks and cultural attractions. During your visit, you can enjoy budget-friendly activities related to history and culture, such as visiting monuments, engaging in wildlife adventures, and experiencing local traditions. This timeframe offers great value for money, making it an ideal choice for those on a budget looking to immerse themselves in Lilongwe’s rich heritage.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover great prices on last-minute accommodation in Lilongwe, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay updated on flash sales and special promotions, so you won't miss any savings opportunities. Additionally, Smart Shopping is a helpful comparison tool available in the app, allowing you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're more likely to see the best options for your stay.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on various factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates might help you save on your stay in a Lilongwe hotel. If you're after something a bit different, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and potentially better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher end, we’ll suggest alternative dates that are likely to be more affordable, helping you find the best deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, but with Lilongwe's excellent public transport connections, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further out that remains well linked. For those keen to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often great value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative locations can provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
