It's a beautiful property close to Kruger. The rooms are great with lots of hot drink options. The management appears to only hire nice people and the guests enjoyed engaging with them. The food is equal to top Jhb restaurants - very imaginative, tasty options.

Have stayed here many many times over the years, always on our way to the Kruger National Park and sometimes on our way out. I would very highly recommend staying here. It has very nice and easy, peaceful and relaxing feel about the place. Just the job to unwind after a long journey. The staff are always some of the best attentive staff that you will wish to find anywhere. Always a 10 out of 10 from me and the wife
