"Very good Radisson hotel."
2025-11-28
I stay at a lot of Radisson hotels, and this one is unique. It is in an industrialised area, but within minutes of the nearest towns.the staff here are fabulous. Lizette BOTHA (GM) was amazing and solved an issue with absolutely no concerns. I am a VIP Radisson member, and reallly enjoyed my stay here. Well situated, clean, quiet and friendly staff.

"Great location, good value"
2025-06-21
Location was great, just off the highway but in a quiet location. It was easy to check in and offload our luggage at the entrance. We were greeted warmly by the friendly staff at both the reception desk and bar/restaurant. Great service. Food and drink prices were decent. Appreciated the little things, like free peanut snacks during happy hour. Breakfast buffet was a terrific value, similar to the Radisson Blu we stayed at in Bruges in 2022. Always lots of delicious choices. Room was spacious and comfortable. Although we didn't use them, the sauna and exercise room were great benefits. It would have been nice to have a note card in our room to provide an orientation with a short description of available hotel benefits and services and their operating hours.
