Pros:

The food was exceptional, especially the buffet. Hotel is very clean bed super comfortable 😌 👌

Cons:

You have to ask for everything, the stuff don't tell you anything from arrival. E.g where to eat, what to find inside or around that is entertaining. We found out about the gym and spa on our last day. Also didn't like that there's no iron in the rooms, that's a hotel standard basic.

Everything you need and nothing you don't
Pros:

Hospitable and comfortable location for our first two nights in Lesotho. Fully appointed gym downstairs with steam room was a welcome treat. Restaurant with plenty of straightforward options as well.

Cons:

Possibility of long wait times at the front desk if only one staffmember working.

Exceptional and would highly recommend!
Pros:

Exceptional views, genuinely lovely and attentive staff. I was working for a week and everyone I encouraged on staff made me feel most welcome. It wasn’t fake it was genuine kindness. As a solo female business traveller I really appreciated how much they took care of me.

Cons:

Some of the utility side doors were left open at night and one of days, there was a stay animal or something died in the stairwell - however when staff was notified it was taken care of and cleaned up right away.

Great hotel in Maseru
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The kids loved the pool area. Breakfast was good, loved the nice pancakes that are freshly prepared daily. The in-house restaurant was also good, we had some options of food to choose from. I would definitely visit again.

Cons:

I was hoping to get sushi at the Yangtao restaurant located in the hotel. We waited for this Chinese restaurant to open, only to find out they didnt serve sushi 😔

A great hotel for a business trip in Maseru.
Pros:

Always great for a professional short stay. Spacious rooms with good internet in a beautiful hotel. Food at the bistro was also consistantly great, especially the meat. Overall a good experience and I highly recommend staying there when coming for business in Maseru.

Cons:

The chinese restaurant was not great and some of the windows in the room could do with a bit of better protection to not let in the wind and cold at winter time as it could get quite cold in the room at times.
