Stay was really nice, and I enjoyed the style of the place. Rooms are very spacious. A suggestion is to give better indication and directions of exactly where to locate reception. It was not very clear. I arrived late at night and it was dark already and could not locate reception for check in.

At first glance the rooms are beautiful and spacious. We had serveral disappointing moments. 3 days we had water trouble, no hot water for 2 and no water pressure the 3rd. They did however come and fix it. The towels had black marks on them, The plunger for the coffee was in a bad condition and the rusks which was a nice touch they only gave us1 rusk for 2 people in the room. So much potential however quite disappointing.

The Royal Elephant

Theres room for improvement especially customer service and cleanliness. Honestly the breakfast wasn't that good to you need to improve on that as well. The AC in my room had issue, either it didn't want to go off or on it had a mind of its own. Tidiness and neatness at the restaurant is very key. But generally it is ok and nearness to the road was good.

Comfortable room, great staff however R50 tray surcharge is ridiculous. Needed to get an adapter plug from them was told there was a R150 deposit required. When I paid they did not have change for a R200 note. Breakfast disappointing as there was only fruit and yoghurt this morning and I was due for examination at 07:10. No bacon and eggs etc. not the best place to stay also too far from any shopping centres.
