Very scary, no sleep
Woke up midnite to find someone in your room in Sourh Africa is no joke. Person had a key to enter our room and lock the door again when he left the room as we woke up. It took us a while to get our door keys that fell on the floor in the dark. We phoned all the available numbers - nobody answered. Even the security guard at the gate, could not get hold of the owner / management. The television did not work. Have to move furniture to get hold of plugs to charge our phones. The aircon could not be put off, due to the remote not working and no plug to put it off.

Best hotel in Pretoria, by far!
Easily the best hotel in Pretoria and one of the best in all of South Africa. To put it simply, this place made me feel like a king (quite literally). Everything from comfort, service, food, location were TOP-NOTCH. The only thing I could possibly recommend is that the hotel invest in a second backup power generator. The power was out and the main generator was being serviced when I needed to check out, so checkout was made difficult and since the wifi was also down I couldn't order an Uber. Other than that this place was excellent and the staff were very warm and welcoming and always willing to help. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Pretoria.
