Positives: interesting history of the property
Breakfast was fabulous
Staff were great, friendly and helpful.
Shower had lots of hot water and good pressure.
SP3-Negatives: light from outside “lobby area” shines directly onto the person sleeping on one side of the bed and is impossible to block out.
This outside area is also a smokers hangout - was very noisy at times.
Noise from other guests in the “central lobby area” echoes and is very loud. All conversations sound like they are being held inside the bedroom.
Bed is VERY soft - we both had back ache after 3 nights.
Christie's was a beautiful oasis in contrast to Nelspruit/Mbombela which is not the most attractive city. The staff were the best asset, but the facility itself was gorgeous, peaceful and functional. The room and bed were comfortable and the food was very good in the restaurant.
The stay was good just found out that your rates should include breakfast as the price you pay should include a breakfast and the other thing is that we were not aware of no liquor licence and we ended up paying R550 for 6 beers which I found to be a complete RIP OFF so there' I can not give you a good rating 🤔😕
Our stay was good, the venue is very nice but can use some refreshing after coming out of lockdown.
We booked for dinner but were disappointed to learn that they do not have a liquor license so no drinks upon arrival nor wine with dinner. Had we known in advance we could have made prior arrangements to bring something.
The place was very beautiful and clean. The staff was kind and ready to assist whenever needed. We enjoyed the main house pool area, very refreshing and reviving. I would recommend this place with the utmost confidence😊
This place is a real gem. Spacious rooms, great service, everything you need. Delicious breakfast, beautiful place, safe, comfortable, will always book this place in future.
What an amazing place. Beautiful rooms with everything you need. Beautifully decorated. Safe, comfortable, spacious, great breakfast. The best stay in Nelspruit ever.
