Super clean and cozy stay. Delicious breakfast with peaceful and spectacular view. Excellent service from the friendly manager, Percy. It was quite chilly so the electric blanket was great. We had the whole place to ourselves for most of our stay which was an added bonus!

    The facilities at this hotel were a pleasant surprise. Though budget, there were toiletries provided, breakfast at an additional charge of ZAR 110 and there is a full lunch and dinner menu too. The bar is fairly stocked and there is a pool as well. We watched the Rugby World Cup in the dining area (TV is faulty as it kept blacking out). Location is close to Sandton City. The hotel is gleaming and the rooms are spotless - kudos to the cleaning staff.
