Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to have heated and clean linen which was perfect for enjoying the winter nights. The spacious and clean rooms offered a comfortable bed, exceeding my expectations for the price paid. However, I was disappointed that the rooms didn't have a fridge, microwave, plates, or spoons to use when bringing my own food.
The hotel is conveniently located in Mafikeng, allowing easy access to nearby malls and restaurants. The rooms were a good value for money, but some amenities like a bar fridge were missing. The service from the security team, receptionists, and housekeeping was incredibly polite and helpful. However, the experience was slightly marred by the inconvenience of not having a toilet brush in the room.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nice and quiet, but missing essentials like a hairdryer and a fridge that I had to request. The location was excellent for reaching social spots, but there were concerns about safety and cleanliness. The service was friendly, but not up to standard as expected. The dining options were limited and overpriced, affecting the overall value for money.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant, with a few highlights and some drawbacks. The location was fine, the service was unimpressive, and the dining experience left much to be desired. However, the rooms were fairly big and nice, and the facilities were satisfactory.
Upon arrival, I found the hotel to be centrally located in Mahikeng, offering easy access to nearby malls and restaurants while providing a peaceful atmosphere. However, the lack of inclusive breakfast and slightly higher price were minor drawbacks during my stay.
