Brett

Exceeded expectations

This was a beautiful hotel, with very comfortable rooms. Unfortunately, we only stayed a very short time and did not get to enjoy the attached cultural center or second restaurant. The staff was very friendly, the check-in was easy (we were greeted with a fresh, hot towel and fruit juice), the rooms were large and comfortable, and the food was excellent. I was not expecting much based on the pictures avaialble, but I was very pleasantly surprised by the actual comfort and beauty of the hotel.

DO NOT Book this property

DO NOT book this property with hotels.com. We are missing our safari because the hotel will not acknowledge our pre-payment and is making us wait to have a manager drive to the hotel to sort this out.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Worst expensive hotel ever

Very bad, I spent the whole night fighting with mosquitoes. I did not sleep. The hotel house keeping is very poor. Mosquitoes are every where. They should work on this or else they don’t even deserve to be rated higher than one star.
