"My sister and I stayed here for 6 nights on a recent trip to Cape Town and generally enjoyed our stay. We arranged an airport pick up through the hotel and he was largely on time for our arrival. The price did change at the last minute though and when I asked why, multiple times, no one at the hotel would give me an answer. The room itself was good, very spacious. The shower was over a tub which was fine provided no mobility issues. Ours did leak a bit so we'd end up with some water pooling...

Accommodation in South Africa

Located on the southern tip of the African continent, the Republic of South Africa is a fascinating vacation destination that offers a variety of reasons to book rooms in South Africa hotels.

The extremely scenic Garden Route is also an excellent touring choice for those traveling with small children because there are no overly long stretches of highway. The Garden Route also provides travelers who are taking advantage of good prices on South Africa holiday packages with a huge abundance of activities such as golfing, wine tasting, sunbathing, fine dining, and whale watching. The Garden Route is also within easy proximity of Cape Town, allowing those who are enjoying vacations courtesy of South Africa hotel deals, which they've gotten through Expedia, to access as much of it as possible within a limited time frame.

If archeological exploration appeals to you, South Africa has some of the oldest known fossil beds on the planet. The caves in Gauteng Province are among the best places on the continent to see ancient human fossils.
