They did not recognize you guys (Hotels.com) as an active "third-party" agent. This led to a delay in finalizing my check-in to the hotel. Also, I was never informed of the breakfast times and venue, so I missed the breakfast (I take partial responsibility for not asking though).

Good rooms,poor service

When I checked in is was a circus. They first insisted that I donot have a valid booking,and after some time they found the booking but insisted that the booking was not paid for even after showing them proof that it was fully paid for. They eventually put a hold on my credit card for the booking amount. This was one of the most embarrassing experiences I ever had. The hotel and room was neat,clean but customer service was bad

Americans touring beautiful South Africa

We picked this hotel because of its location on the route to Kruger and the positive ratings. The area around the hotel was dark and a little scary as we drove up, but the parking lot was well guarded. Initially we felt a little out of place but the warmth of the staff made us feel very welcome. Dinner and breakfast were both very good.

Quantity, not quality!

Went to visit my brother in Witbank. Family came over to spend time at the apartment but there was not much to entertain with. Kitchen had fridge and microwave but no dishes or even glasses or a cloth to wipe spills with. Bathroom had a damp smell and there was mildew on the wall. Was not impressed at all. It was embarrassing... It was neither a hotel experience (that I usually have and expected) nor was it like other self catering experiences. I will not book an apartment again. For the price, the space is better but the overall experience was dismal.

AN acceptable place to stay as highway stop-over

An okay place to stay- we used this as one night stop over after leaving Kruger Park before our noon time flight at Tambo the next day. The location was good in terms of being a quick stop off the highway. If you are using garmin or google maps on your iPhone, the address of this property comes up as in the city of "Emalahleni". not Witbank. We struggled a bit to find it. The hotel service is good and place is reasonably clean but the condition of the room and furniture is aged and a bit worn. This was a turn-off to me. The Wi-Fi was however strong which as a plus.

Wrong allocation of rooms for clients.

I had to shift from room 37 to 61 because of the following; 1. Did not have the ablution door. 2. The confirmed room was 36 Sqm and I was given a 22 Sqm room which is no.37. I was happy with number 61 as it is 36 Sqm and had ablution door. That change of rooms inconvenienced my stay.

A place to stay if you have no other choice

We made same day reservations so we're happy to get a room. The room was clean and bed was ok in a room barely big enough for the bed. We ate in the bar and it took us an hour to get 2 sandwiches and fries. Inefficient is an understatement. The people were very friendly but their accents were so heavy I barely understood half of what was said. And I am sure the feeling was mutual because of my southern accent. The area was iffy but security was obvious.

Communication would have made it all ok

The hotel was aware of plumbing maintenance being done, however failed to inform us on arrival. We therefore were unable to take a bath after spending a couple of days in the bush prior to our arrival there. They kept saying it would be back to normal "soon". We left with taps still running brown water, if any at all, and are still waiting for them to send clean drinking water to the room.

Zweckmäßige Lage

Das Hotel ist für unsere Zweck gut gelegen. die Zimmer sind etwas klein, aber für unseren eine Nachtaufenthalt nicht hinderlich gewesen. Das angeboteneund extra zu bezahlende Frühstücksbuffet war angemessen umfangreich, aber gemessen an dem Preisniveau anderer Lokale in Süd Afrika etwas teuer. Alles in allem aber war das Hotel für uns eine gute Wahl.
