- Mutua (10/5): -
- Thandeka (10/5): Amazing customer service from the front desk and great location - Location and service Nothing
- Kusotera (8/5): A great day - Conveniently located next to the mall The corridors had quite a bit of echoes, and so noise from the passageway was easily heard in the rooms
- Snoxolo (10/5): -
- brenda (9/5): VERY PLEASANT STAY - EXCELLENT BREAKFAST. CLEAN FACILITIES AND EXCELLENT LOCATION AND VERY GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY.

- Karabo (9/5): It was good and comfortable - The rooms were beautiful, particularly the bathroom finishes. The hotel seems recently renovated and as the facilities were still new and I love that they have various charging facilities including a USB-C slot on the wall. The breakfast has a lot of variety. The staff were helpful and friendly. The elevator was not cleaned, the Wi-Fi was slow most days. The bed was generally low and small for my requirements. Having a toilet brush can really assist as you do not have to wait for house-keeping to clean the toilet area.
- Didier (6/5): Great location and friendly stafd - Excellent location with shopping mall next to the hotel No ironing facilities in room
- Everard Paul (7/5): -
- Dreshnee (5/5): -
- Happson (8/5): Good - Location is great The brakfaast
- Kagiso (10/5): - The location, the hotel look and feel.
I loved the olive green theme in the rooms. Loved the capsule wardrobe and the breakfast varieties suited everyone's needs. It shows that the hotel was recently renovated and some small details were left unattended. For example, the showers seals were not done correctly and as such after a shower, there would be a paddle of water on the bathroom floor.
The hotel manager must ensure that all the finishing touches are done perfectly
I also didn't like that I asked for two single beds in one of the rooms and instead was given a queen bed with a side sliding bed. The room was for me and my 16 years old son, and the side bed didn't work. He ended up sleeping on the chair which was uncomfortable, luckily we were only there for one night. Next time please do better.
- Latomi fleur rosine (9/5): - Ok
- Mosa (8/5): Beautiful rooms - The rooms are beautiful, clean and comfortable. The location is the best because it's a walking distance to the Mall. When we arrived the bar fridge did not have welcoming drinks.
- Mokone (8/5): - The location and breakfast were good plus friendly stuff The cleaning staff did not do their job well, they just made up the beds and changed towels.
- Hajra (9/5): - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Clean, comfy rooms with noticeable improvements since my last stay. The recent renovations were really well done and made the hotel feel fresh and modern. Staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. Overall, a very pleasant stay and I’d happily retur

- Mathapelo (9/5): - Loved almost everything specially the breakfast👌and the location is very convenient. The staff is doing an amazing job Quiet noisey, one morning we were woken up by a drunk guy arguing with staff.
- Aisha (7/5): - The rooms are recently upgraded and looks good As a person who eats halaal food its difficult to have ypur meals with ur family together.You can purchase food but u not allowed to eat at the pool area, u hav to eat in the hotel rooms
This is uncomfortable as we traveled in a large group an wanted to.eat as a family at the hotel whilst the kids played at the pool
This needs to be looked into as all guests should be prioritized
I made a booking for 8 rooms for 3 nights
This was dissapointing
- Velia (6/5): - Staff member at the reception Luyanda is the guy who made my stay enjoyable always making sure I am well settled Rooms are small beds especially the two single bed room
No enough space

- Bongani Eugene (9/5): My stay was exceptional - Excellent The facility is perfect
- Mrs Madlala (8/5): Lovely stay near gateway - I was attracted by the colours and design, and was really impressed when we got to the room. The decor is really pretty. The staff was also friendly, especially the ones that help with breakfast serving. I really liked the facilities. As much as it is a green idea to have purified water by reception, it's quite far for guests to have to fetch water because we are mostly tired when we check-in.
We'd left a note that’s like a "do not disturb" sign, can't remember if it had the same words, because the room didn't need cleaning on our first day there, yet we got a letter stating they couldn't clean the room and they tried reaching us, so I'm note sure what the purpose of those notes is.
- Shaun (10/5): -
- Neshar (6/5): - Location, comfortable and easy access for my kids.
Staff helpfulness There was a party, a fight and so much noise in the next unit amd we were up from 3am till around 6am , security was truly useless and even got intimidated by the unruly group of men amd women jm the unit.
No one could help amd we were left to stomach all this
The words experience ever
