Kempton Park hotel experience

My stay was horrible, both swimming pools were dirty. Their breakfast was very bad,the manager was so disrespectful, rude and arrogant. The managers mother who runs the place was a nice person, but the daughter was something else. I wouldn’t recommend any one to stay there especially African ( black) . The daughter is a racist.

Great inexpensive hotel near airport

New, modern and clean room with good lighting, cable tv, and WiFi plus heat and AC. Good quality linens. Secure property in a nice residential neighborhood. Restaurants were within walking distance. Even so, the owners offered to drive me. Shared kitchen available with dedicated refrigerator if wanted. Good breakfast buffet included in room rate. The quality of the construction and floor/wall tiles were very much appreciated.

Good old fashioned South African hospitality

Upon booking I was asked when my flight was due to arrive, it was the wee hours of the morning and I was informed that I could check in immeadiately. I was treated with respect and compassion throughout the stay and when I slept over at a friend I was informed that I had been missed on my return. Love you Marnie and the crew and I'll definately stay with you upon my return to SA.
