The room was great and the hotel itself was fine. The only issue was the service in the restaurant for our evening meal. It would have been better not to have to wait for so long for food to arrive and it would have been nice if we could all eat together, rather than some finishing before the other meals arrived.

The overall experience was amazing, the place is gorgeous, the staff was great especially Boitumelo and the cleaners. The only issue is the place not having allevators, we had to carry heavy luggage up and down
