This is a nice lodge, room very comfortable and the breakfast is very good, a lot of fruits. Next to the hotel and associated to him, there is a nice Spur steak house. The hotel is very clean, wireless everywhere and employees are friendly. The only thing that is shame is the pool, very small !

The rooms were well furnished and while the room was away from the river view, there was some view of the Orange River. Located to my business interest. However, the rate for the hotel was rather expensive considering that the shower in the room... More

Had problems with the aircon and the bedside light. Both the buffet breakfast and the buffet supper were disappointing in terms of quality and service. Buffet choices were quite limited. Patrons...

Parking is enclosed... More
