New to Nelspruit

Came to Nelspruit for work. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating, I was a little surprised to see on arrival they don't have an elevator. Thankfully, I'm not handicapped or disabled. I dined for breakfast and it was reasonably priced, food tasted well, there was options for everyone, and the staff were great and professional. The only thing that bothered me was everything closed early, 9pm....EVERYTHING! I'm from the USA so that was new to me, the cities shut down early during the week.

Idéalement placée ai calme.

L'hôtel bénéficie d'une superbe situation géographique dans une zone résidentielle et à côté du lac et d'autres commerces. L'aménagement et la décoration sont chics et plus ou moins vintage. Nous avons apprécié la piscine les deux jours où nous sommes restés sur place.
