Lovely Hotel in White River

The Hotel, in White River, is ideally situated if wanting to take a trip to the Kruger National Park. The personnel are very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast at the Magnolia restaurant was excellent. The rooms are spacious, clean and have an enormous bed!

Good quality hotel, with good location

It's always a pleasant stay. The hotel presents usual expected hotel services, it's comfortable and the rooms are spacious. Not all rooms have bathtub. We always take some time to go through the nice center in front of the hotel, look at the gallerias and curated stores. The restaurant is good with interesting menu.

Only minor complaints, but any issue was very quickly resolved by the front desk staff. If you are a light sleeper, the trucks will be a nuisance but other than that you can't ask for much more
