Voor onze safari naar Botswana zijn we hier 2 nachten geweest. We sliepen in de Pool villa, een mooie zitkamer,slaapkamer met inloopkast en primabadkamer met genoeg handdoeken , zeepjes enz. Een vriendelijke ontvangst. Het ontbijt was zeer uitgebreid met veel keuzes zelfs oestrrs. Prinalunch op.het buiten terras en heerlijke diners met een uitgebreidde kaart. Een zeer goede keuken en vriendelijke bediening. Ook lekkere wijnen om uit te kiezen. Zeker een aanrader.

My husband & I stayed here for 2 nights before flying back to Vancouver. We loved everything about this beautiful 5 star boutique hotel ! The food, pools, spacious bedrooms , design, and friendly staff. The attention to detail is excellent. The staff at front desk helped me with a local phone call to a friend in Jo'burg that did not work on my mobile phone. Thank you!

A beautiful oasis in the outskirts of Johannesburg. The rooms have elegant interiors and the people working there are extremely dedicated and friendly. Impeccable service. Last but not least, the food is just amazing. Kudos to Chef Nicolas, who is not only a magician but a true artist!

We headed here after a disappointing night at the Westcliff. What a difference! The atmosphere was so relaxed, the staff were charming, and the food was great. There were so many beautiful places to sit and relax, and the gym was great as well. A great place to overnight in Johannesburg.
