The hotel has a prime location just off the main road, making it perfect for travelers heading to Cape Town. I found the rooms clean and basic, but not super spacious, and I appreciated the helpful staff. The dining options were good in terms of breakfast, but the bar selection fell short. Overall, it’s a decent spot but has room for improvement in certain areas.

The rooms were basic but clean, featuring a separate toilet and a hand basin next to the shower separated by a curtain, which made privacy a bit awkward when traveling with a partner.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel which offers a unique experience with views of the zoo right outside my window. The rooms are clean and comfortable, although a bit small for my liking. The staff were welcoming and extremely helpful during my visit. The restaurant served decent food, especially breakfast, but the dining experience could definitely be improved with more options to choose from. The pool area is surprisingly tiny, but the overall value for money was fair considering the location.

I stayed overnight while traveling through Bloemfontein, and I was impressed by how clean the hotel was. The king-size bed was super comfy and the linen felt fresh. However, the bar could use more attention as the drink selection was limited. The hotel’s location is very convenient, right near the highway, making it easy for road trips.

I had a decent overnight stay at the hotel while traveling through Bloemfontein. The location is ideal for a stopover along the N1, with ample secure parking. The rooms were clean, featuring a comfortable king-size bed, but they felt a bit basic and small. The staff was friendly and efficient, and the dining options offered a reasonable buffet dinner. However, the bar selection could seriously use improvement to enhance the overall experience.
