"Ledumo ligger ret besværligt at finde i byen Emalahleni og vejene har meget store huller. Hvis man tager den første afkørsel fra N4 er det bedre, men det virker mere naturligt at tage den anden hvor bynavnet står og så er det svært at finde uden gps. De ville også have penge selvom hotel.com havde givet kvittering for betaling. De ville have at man brugte booking.com. Til sidst fandt de dog ud af at værelset var betalt og vi fik et bedre end det først angivne værelse. Det opfatter jeg lidt...

Top South Africa Hotel Reviews

Southern Sun O.R Tambo

Southern Sun O.R Tambo

10/10 Excellent
"Airport shuttle was efficient. Bar/restaurant served excellent food. Breakfast was included and there were many options including an omelet station. The shower was fabulous. Lots of hot water and good pressure. The room was clean. Small but that is normal in this area of the world. It was very convenient to the airport as we were there only a day and a half before continuing our journey. If you are looking for a nice, clean room while transiting Joburg, you will be pleased."
