Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
I pre checked in at 9am and i only got my room at 3pm and that also was me having to call the reception continously.
The guybat reception did not know what he was doing.and upon booking no1 tells you that the theme park rides are all closed on monday and we booked to spend the day on monday on the rides which was bad
Greeted with a warm and friendly welcome on arrival. The hotel offers a shuttle from/to the parking area and to/from the Gold Reef City Casino. The park is well maintained. All facilities and walkways are kept very clean which was a pleasant surprise. Breakfast at Barney’s Restaurant offered a wide variety of choices.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I didnt like that we had a bottle of perfume stolen from our shopping bag that we forgot in the hotel bus
The staff were excellent–very friendly, helpful and respectful. The rooms were spacious, well-appointed and well furnished. The tariff was good value-for-money. Highly recommend.
Very convenient with comfortable & spacious rooms, in the middle of the amusement park with great breakfast. The kids had the best time and we enjoyed the easy access to all the entertainment. Friendly and helpful staff added a lot to a great experience.
