Cozy, Pleasant, Great Location Proximate to Airpor
Just one night but it was wonderful. Had a couples massage in the attached spa - very relaxing - and a wonderful, pleasant full breakfast in the AM. Very nice neighborhood and close to the airport. Highly recommended for a pleasant, comfortable stay.

The venue was nice, however when I made the booking it was at Aristo Manor and I was not made aware that I would be staying in their sister place next door called Town Hopper.

Angenehmes Hotel für Zwischenstop. Es lohnt sich, den Mehrpreis für das Deluxezimmer auszugeben. Guter Service.

A very nice guest house with clean rooms and comfortable beds. Manager was very friendly and informative and although breakfast was not included in price, cost was reasonable and of superior quality. Somewhat outvof the way, close to airport but little else. Closest restaurant was guest house next door and of average quality

Self-catering units not as good as guest house
We booked a self-catering unit on the strength of the guest house's good reviews. While I cannot really comment on the guest house rooms, the self-catering unit was disappointing. Everything looked and felt tired and in need of a refresh. Upon departure we were not asked whether we were satisfied or whether everything had been o.k. - probably for a reason. The most disappointing stay of our 2 1/2 week trip of SA.

Excellent Accommodation
Had an amazing stay. Oret in reception was outstanding and went out of her way to assist us in our time of need. Could not have asked for better service. We stayed in the self catering as well as the guest lodge. Thank you once again Oret.
