    Location just off a lake where the locals seem to spend a lot of time relaxing, and the nearby national parks.

The staff here were incredibly friendly and professional, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. They even made us breakfast at 4.45 in the morning to take with us on our safari! The room was spacious and clean, with a beautiful balcony where we could witness the breathtaking sunset. The pool was also clean and inviting, perfect for a refreshing swim. The hotel provided excellent services such as room service, car hire, and housekeeping. We were truly impressed by this hotel and would highly recommend it to others.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with anything I needed. The rooms were modern, clean, and equipped with air conditioning and hot water. I absolutely loved the private balcony that overlooked the beautiful lake. The pool was clean and inviting, perfect for relaxing after a long day. Additionally, the hotel organized a safari for me, which turned out to be an amazing experience. We set off early in the morning to beat the crowds and our driver was excellent at spotting the animals. the hotel's facilities, location, and staff made my stay truly enjoyable.

    The location of this hotel was absolutely stunning, right by a beautiful ancient lake. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with a neat and clean ambiance. The balcony facing the lake added an extra touch to the experience.- The swimming pool was well-maintained and provided a pleasant area for relaxation.- The staff was exceptionally courteous and friendly, ensuring a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the stay.- The food served in the hotel was excellent, offering a wide variety of dishes to choose from.- this hotel is a perfect choice for those who want to unwind and enjoy a peaceful stay.

    The hotel's WiFi was not functioning properly during our stay, which was a bit inconvenient as we needed to stay connected. We also faced some issues with the water pressure in the shower, which was quite low.

    Loved the peaceful and serene atmosphere, the stunning view of the lake from the room and the refreshing swimming pool. Staff was super-friendly and helpful during our stay. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast with a great variety of local dishes. The affordable pricing for our comfortable room and services was a bonus.

    The location was quite far from the city center, making it challenging to find other food options. The towels provided were thin and not very absorbent.
