Trip to SA - Southern Sun first time visit
The staff at the hotel was amazing. Very friendly and helpful and always available. They followed up and was just terrific. Cannot say enough good things about them. Breakfast was amazing and catered to everyone. Transport to and from airport every 15 minutes via shuttle with competent, friendly drivers. Safety is not an issue moving from the airport to the hotel. Just loved our stay here and will definitely use the hotel again for future trips.

Just a short walk from the airport to the shuttle that took us to the hotel. It was evening, so dark. Several people offered to take us t o the shuttle stop but they were leading us down a somewhat iffy alleyway. We headed towards the Intercontinental Hotel and their staff showed us where the shuttle was. Attentive staff at Southern Sun. Had appetizer and drinks at the bar since we got in late. Breakfast buffet was great with lots of vegetarian options for me. Marvin,who was at the front desk was great. Overall an awesome stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

Rummet var slitet med gammal heltäckningsmatta Gammalt badrum med väldigt lågt handfat. Sängen var ok och det var rent och fräscht i den men kändes som väldigt slitet i övrigt på rummet Restaurangen var bra med god mat Jag åt dock ingen frukost då jag lämnade hotellet 04:30 Man fick smörgås och kaffe i foajén om man hade tidigt flyg.
