I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, providing me with a comfortable retreat. The service was top-notch, with the staff being incredibly friendly and accommodating. The hotel's location was convenient, as it was close to a theme park and the casino, making it easy to explore the area. However, the dining experience was lacking in variety, offering only buttermilk biscuits, which was a bit disappointing. The facilities were great, offering all the amenities I needed for a pleasant stay.

What a great find! The hotel is conveniently located in Gold Reef City theme park, offering proximity to the FNB stadium for the Jhb cycle race and a casino nearby. The rooms are spacious with comfortable king-size beds, and the bathroom has plenty of hot water. The service is top-notch, with room service available along with housekeeping and a welcome drink upon arrival. Despite being in a theme park, the hotel is close to everything one might need.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The king size beds were so comfortable, and the bathroom had plenty of hot water for a relaxing shower. However, I did find the room a bit pricey for what it offered. The service was excellent with prompt room service and a lovely welcome drink upon arrival. The location was superb, being right next to the park and close to the casino; it was also convenient for attending events at the FNB stadium for the Joburg cycle race. The dining experience was top-notch with freshly cooked eggs for breakfast. The facilities were fantastic, offering everything I needed for a pleasant stay.
