Thunzi Bush Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"This was definitely a great experience. My sister and I were celebrating her pre birthday. Everything was impeccable. The views, facilities and amenities were absolutely great. A great hideaway. The only let down was the water, after the first person has showered the water does not fully get heated for the second guest. Overall a great experience."

Forest Hall Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Séjour d'une nuit seulement mais le site est paisible et on a l'impression d'être dans une résidence et non un hôtel."

The Hub Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel was nice, although we were the only guests, which felt slightly strange. There had been a mix up and we got a double room instead of a twin but it was sorted out and we were given breakfast as an apology. Large comfy room and pleasant staff. We went to a nice restaurant within walking distance but the location didn't really feel ideal."
