My two weeks business trip in Pretoria where very nice at the Malvin Residence. Piet got a lot of recomendations for dinner and more. If I would come back to Pretoria I would allways take a room here. The rooms are always clear, the breakfast was very good and all of the staff were very obliging. Cheers, Arne More
