    The location was magnificent and perfect, just off the centre, the Mamba Cafe and restaurant, and the center of town. Double room was functional and new-fashioned with a great air conditioning. The workers were accommodating and exceptionally nice.

    We had a fantastic stay at this luxurious 4-star hotel in the heart of the city. The location in a green residential suburb close to the Central Business District provided us with a peaceful and serene atmosphere. The hotel is conveniently situated near the center of the city, making it easy for us to explore all that this vibrant destination has to offer. We were delighted to discover that the hotel is located right by an open-sided restaurant, where we enjoyed delicious meals with stunning views of the lake.

    With its exceptional location, superb service, and impressive room amenities, this hotel is highly recommended for anyone seeking a luxurious and comfortable stay in this bustling city.

    Decent Amenities and Friendly Staff the amenities were decent and the staff was friendly. They offered two drinks vouchers as a complement and the location was pretty central. the pool area was quite lively on the weekend and there were a lot of events happening. the hotel restaurant offered good food, especially their chef's specials.

    Noisy and Overpriced the hotel was quite noisy during the weekends. There were multiple events happening in the pool area which could be annoying and there was no option to change the room as all were booked.
