The hotel had problem with WiFi, so staff helped us set up hot spot from our phones so we could still access WiFi when we needed it. Very helpful.

Suzanne Australia

We traveled to Rutherglen for a 2 night stay and picked Poachers Paradise for a 1 night STAY. The Staff was very accomodating to our needs and the room was spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfy as well. It was also very central to everything in this pretty little town. Thanks Petra
