A nice gem

The hotel lives up to its reputation. Apart from the beautiful garden, the food was definitely given a thumb up. They supply several homemade items everyday including bread and jam. All of them were very fresh. Breakfast was generous. The four-course dinners were satisfying in terms of taste and creativity. Two choices are available for starter and desert and four for main course and a guest can order two for each course. The portion is not very big so people like me can have both to satisfy curiosity. The room we stayed for our first night is relatively dated and simple yet clean. We moved to another room next day whose toilet is equipped with more modern amenities including a bath. The hotel staff including the hostesses and housekeepers were cheerful and did their jobs very well. Our car was washed complimentarily and it was very much a pleasant surprise. We notice many people stay there for one or two nights, but our view is people can easily spend a longer there and we did eventually -- it had not been our plan. :) Highly recommended.

Paradise in Swaziland

One would not expect such a hotel after the drive over pothole-ridden streets and having seen the extremely simple living conditions all around. Surrounded by a secure fence, there is an island of splendor with great food, local staff, and very international clientele. The food is excellent; the table was always the same and the waiter by name assigned for breakfast and dinner. It’s a happy and beautiful place. Imagine this: you wake up and your car has been secretly washed by good spirits early in the morning, and so it goes on and on. Highly recommended!

A Hotel to come back again

Excellent (international) cuisin with exciting cookings. Clean, large rooms. Some rooms with own chimney (the chimney was ready prepared to start firing with a single match). The hotel is located in the woods, no noise - just recreation.

Sistemazione d'atmosfera in un ambiente da sogno

Bellissima atmosfera ed accoglienza, sembra di essere in un cottage inglese, camini accesi .. tutto perfetto. La cena molto ma molto buona e ad un prezzo davvero bassissimo se rapportato alla qualitĂ , quantitĂ  e al servizio. Purtroppo ci siamo fermati solo una notte, ma le escursioni che si possono fare nei dintorni devono essere molto belle. La proprietaria alla nostra partenza ci ha comunque illustrato le cose da vedere durante la strada di ritorno verso Johannesburg. Imperdibile per chi dovesse visitare lo Swaziland.
