The hotel has a great location along the Vaal River, and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. The rooms are spacious and warm, but unfortunately, they need urgent renovations due to several issues. While there are nice amenities available, the dining options for families are quite limited and could use improvement.

This hotel is situated in a perfect location right next to the Vaal River, offering a clean and friendly atmosphere. The rooms are comfortable, but the dining experience left much to be desired with some miscommunication regarding breakfast. The pool area is a definite highlight, providing a nice spot to relax. Overall, it's a good value for money, but the service could use some improvement.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, which is beautifully situated by the Vaal Dam, featuring fantastic views and an inviting pool area that my kids absolutely loved. The rooms were a nice touch with drapings and rose petals, making for a romantic atmosphere. However, I encountered some issues with water leakage during my stay, which was frustrating. Additionally, the dining options were not the best; I found it quite overpriced for the limited variety.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the bright side, the views from my room overlooking the pool and river were absolutely stunning, and the staff was really friendly and professional. However, I was disappointed with the insect issue in the rooms and the slow service for larger groups during meals. Nonetheless, the location is beautiful with a dense forest nearby, providing a serene atmosphere.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which boasts a stunning location by the Vaal Dam. The rooms were clean, but I felt a second TV in the lounge area would have been nice, especially for families. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. However, the breakfast offered could use more variety, as it repeated over two days. Overall, it’s a comfortable spot with great amenities, but prepare for a few dining hiccups.
