Pros:

The hotel is beautiful and neat. It is situated away from the buzz of the city and close enough to the surrounding towns for any activities you may want to enjoy in Mpumalanga.

Cons:

Nothing I can think of at the moment.

The perfect stopover after our Kruger safari
Pros:

We stayed at the hotel for just one night as a stopover after our time in Kruger, before flying on to Cape Town.

The hotel was exactly what we were looking for. From the restaurant staff and reception team to housekeeping, security and even the staff at the egg station, everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming and attentive. The beautiful surroundings and relaxing atmosphere made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived.

We also really enjoyed both the dinner and breakfast buffets, which offered a great selection and were the perfect way to round off our stay.

Even though we only stayed for one night, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would happily come back. Highly recommended!
