    That it is not closer to home, so we could visit more often.

    Excellent location. Hospitality was top notch. Jean-Paul took every opportunity to make sure we were taken care of like royalty. Sarah and Dean have a beautiful property, and more importantly, staff members committed to the guests. When in Jo’burg, do yourself a favor and stay here.

    Although there is a generator, on the executive rooms, the electricity would often trip after load shedding.

    It is in a safe area, close to Rosebank Mall. It has 24/7 security services. One is able to enjoy a jog in and around the area. It has enough parking space. It has 2 swimming pools that are well managed. It offers a lot of therapeutic options. It has indoor and outdoor showers. It has a Spa Treatment. It also has a Library section with lots of books. It has a lot of benches for fresh air. It also has an Honesty Bar.

    More variety for hot breakfast.

    Breakfast was okay, although choice was limited. Very homely and relaxing place to be, quiet to the point we were surprised to see other people there. Really liked the separate courtyard and outdoor shower to our room. Sarah very kindly gave us an upgrade before our arrival which was a lovely surprise. Thank you for a lovely stay I was sad to leave!

    The breakfast options were quite limited. Admittedly, it would have been relatively easy to get breakfast outside in a coffee shop, but we chose not to and stayed in the comfort of the hotel.

    Ideal location, possible to venture out by foot to restaurants, shopping, and spa. Super friendly and helpful staff with a personal touch, making the stay comfortable and memorable. It was very nice to chill on the terrace with a book and tea. I also liked the beverages area where I could make myself tea or coffee or get a cold drink.

    My only issue was with the breakfast which was rather miserable. The eggs shortage due to avian flu was understandable but to run out of much of the rest that should have been available was very disappointing. The good coffees did somewhat make up for it but the standard was way below expectations and the cost of the extra 2 breakfasts was out of line for what was served.

    The staff and the comfort of the hotel as well as the gardens and security were very good.

    This is a fine luxury boutique hotel with exceptional bedrooms, very well appointed, with all amenities one could imagine. The property is set in magnificent gardens with deep shaded patios, and several swimming & plunge pools for summer travellers. Extremely helpful staff and although we did not stay for dinner or breakfast, the menu looked tempting and great value.
