Ideal gelegen für Ausflüge in den Krugerpark; komfortable Zimmer, hervorragendes Frühstück und Abendessen
Pros:

Ideal gelegen für Ausflüge in den nahe gelegenen Krügerpark. Das Phalaborwa Gate ist nur einen Steinwurf vom Hotel entfernt. Die Zimmer sind komfortabel ausgestattet, das Frühstück ist hervorragend und die Dinnerkarte kann sich sehen lassen. Das Essen ist vorzüglich.
