Doogles

Top choice in Malawi


Doogles is popular with discerning travellers of all stripes, its inviting pool and bar ringed by walls with a cool sunset-safari design. From there, the complex leads to a big TV lounge, lush gardens, super-fresh en-suite rooms with shower, clean six-bed dorms, and thatched en-suite chalets with mozzie nets and fans.

The restaurant (mains MK5000) serves international and Malawian cuisine. Doogles is next to the bus station.
