Safetyness is an issue

Have rated this Hotel recently. The safetyness has become worse. Got scammed at an ATM nearby.
Rainer, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

First time stay in South Africa made comfortable!

The staff was courteous, the rooms were spacious, clean and modern with a good number of electrical points. The AC systems were very effective, but a little noisy. The hotel offers basic and premium internet packages with the basic being included in the cost of the stay but was more than sufficient for streaming and video calling.

My favorite place to stay

The Birchwood is a huge congress & holiday premise with dozens of small villas. Close to the airport and some major shopping malls. Several bars and restaurants in the property. All well mantained and in good shape.

Raj, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great stay. Very friendly and helpful staff. Only slight lowering of rating was no playground which was advertised in the Expedia hotel details and the reason we picked that hotel over others in a similar range.
Rebekah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing stay

Amazing stay. Clean and the shuttle service between buildings is also amazing. Staff was amazing from reception, shuttle drivers etc.
Thandeka, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I have often traveled to South Africa on business and stayed at many hotels, but I have never found a place where the staff were as friendly as this one. The hotel grounds were large and it was nice to take a walk. The downside was that the bathroom door was the wrong size so it didn't close completely, and the shuttle service ran every hour, so the waiting time was longer than other hotels.
