Carpets were very smelly and dirty considering it was a suite it should've been well maintained.
The overall room was very old fashioned

Great location for visiting the apartheid museum.
Pros:

The location was just opposite the apartheidmuseum, our main purpose of our visit.
Staff was very friendly and the rooms were very comfortable.

Cons:

The hotel seems to be focused on gambling. Looks and feels like a massive casino.

Horrible! Not for Families! Too crowded and busy
Pros:

It’s beautifully decorated but very overrated

Cons:

Tooo busy !
It was really a bad experience
It’s not a hotel for a family but rather for gamblers only and a horrible party and drink vibe too loud and crowded !!!!!
