We only stayed at Kingfisher for one evening, but we can’t say enough positive things about the staff. We had an early morning flight the next morning and Cilliers went above and beyond to ensure we had snacks to take with us and had a safe ride to the airport. Much appreciated!

Pleasant Stay
Very clean and tidy Guesthouse. Rooms are spacious and well serviced. Breakfast is good although buffet is not large. Chef's cooked breakfast is a highlight. Owners are very friendly and location is adequate with shopping centre only 10 mins walk away. WiFi is OK although had many difficulties with voice over data. It should be noted that this Guesthouse does not allow any visitors - they are very specific about this and do mention prosecution if any visitor is found on the premises. There were a couple of occasions I would have liked to invite my host in to enjoy the courtyard but was unable to.
