“Beautifully appointed and great service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 24, 2012

Ended up by accident here on a business trip.. What a wonderful accident! On a hill with great views, not too far from the centre of Joburg, we got a great welcome and ever attentive service and friendliness. There's an equestrian theme, the rooms are wonderfully airy and exquisitely furnished with lovely touches everywhere. Food was excellent and excellently presented.. I'll be back!

“Tranquility in Joburg”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2012

The hotel is set in an equestrian residential estate. It is very secure and tranquil. The bedrooms are large, and the bathrooms are big enough to have a wet room shower.

The service was good, and there is a nice turn down.

I went for a walk around the 5pm jogging track and saw birdlife and two hares.

Nice place for a peaceful getaway.

Room Tip: The rooms on the left face the polo fields.

“Superb location, ambience and service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2011 via mobile

An absolute gem. Totally unique and so convenient for anywhere in Joburg yet you feel as though you are far away from the city. The themed bedrooms are fantastic. Excellent value for money too!

Great, spacious rooms with the best open shower. Great food and feel like you are in the country after a hard day of business in the hustle & bustle of Jozi
