I would go there again inshAllah.they accomodated me as a Muslim too,that was something I loved the most .Not to forget the general manager Tanja who went out of her Way to make us feel more happy and treated my mother and kids with so much care and Love ?.we traveled as a family and it was my mother's birthday ,she made our stay so beautiful.i can say 1 thing about her, she's the face you want to see Infront and hoping that Southern Sun appreciate her.i will come back bcz of her, hoping she Will still be there inshAllah.

    Great staff, fantastic breakfast.

    On the last morning, in mid-shower the water went off. One hour before an important meeting leaving me covered in soap.Front desk reaction - crickets… no action for over 30 minutes.Pathetic.

    The hotel is well managed and in the perfect location in relation to the office building I need to go to. I got exceptional service from Hazel in reception, Wayne in the restaurant and from the manager Delnayde. Thank you for your contribution in making my stay pleasant.

    Good value for money. Clean and comfortable rooms. Helpful staff.

    A little bit far from the center. Breakfast could be better.

    8SharonPosted on: 10-2-2025

    Excellent buffet. egg station could be more visible.

    A decent outdoor space is lacking somehere to sit and have tea, lunch or just being in the open air.

    It was excellent. And the food most superb. The evening Cheff - Athini is one of the best chefs I've met. The quality of her food was of the best quality I've tasted before. Thank you

    Perhaps you can think of having some kind of live music. Perhaps one -man bands, a pianist...

    9PatrickPosted on: 8-15-2025

    Great location, amazing staff.

    The hotel is showing signs of aging - it is though recognised as parts are now being refurbished.

    The table mountain view from the room was awesome.The room size was good enough.

    The tv wasn’t working but didn’t bother us much.

    10Pieter/jolindaPosted on: 4-10-2025

    The staff was amazing with excellent friendly service. Top class and well done to them. they did a lot for the Two Oceans Runners to make their stay comfortable with own prize giving after the race. Absolutely amazing.

    Short stay. early check-out. did not eat breakfast

    Short stay. early check-out. Business trip. Didn't stay long enough to rate. sorry.

    7AliciaPosted on: 4-9-2025

    I booked 5 rooms. The one room was not ready on check in. We waited a few hours and the replacement room had a double bed and not a king bed as expected. The dinner was disappointing. 3 of the meals were cold and the pasta wasn’t great. However the breakfast was much better. The bathrooms need an upgrade. They need to replace the bath with a proper shower.R1800pppn is very expensive

    10KesinyPosted on: 4-8-2025

    The staff - especially Tracy and her team for looking after the Two Oceans athletes. Everything from understanding what athletes would need and how to make everyone feel special. The shuttle to and from the finish, the welcoming event to the hotel after the race, the pre- breakfast spread - EVERYTHING was top notch and well organised.

    I love everything - if there's a small detail they could have been better at is to ensure house keeping was done after breakfast in the morning as later on after the race, athletes need their shower and sleep.

    Warm staff, convenient location, very nice breakfast with good variety, nice room with good facilities.

    I had a very nice experience
