Awesome, felt like i was a celebrity.
Pros:

I would just like to say that I have never had such an amazing experience as I did staying with you guys. The Hotel is absolutely beautiful. The staff overall were so friendly and caring. We took a lot of photos of the Hotel. I travelled up there for a book event and won a trophy for the best Non-Fiction Writer of 2026. We posted everything on Facebook including pictures of the Hotel and it is trending.

Please follow me on Facebook to revies all photos and videos of the Hotel and our award ceremony. Name Kim Bagshw

The next time there is an event in Pretoria we will definitely be coming back to your hotel. Wishing you all love and blessings

Kind Regards Kim
