Reviews and Ratings
I was delighted with my stay at this hotel! The rooms were beautifully decorated with rose petals to celebrate our honeymoon, each featuring a different African safari theme. They may not be very spacious, but they had everything I needed, from comfortable beds to spacious bathrooms with plenty of hot water for a relaxing shower after a long day of exploring.
The hotel offers clean and agreeably cooled rooms, with water bottles stocked here and there, along with welcoming service that ensures an enjoyable stay. The location is a peaceful place to relax or have a celebratory drink, while the dining experience is really excellent. However, the rooms didn't have something and the hotel is a great place for both business and pleasure.
