What an incredible experience!

What an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in until we left. Staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, food is superb and the walk around tour, pays homage to the incredible human that was Madiba 🇿🇦

Visiting from Norway we had a couple of amazing days at this historic place. Everything was perfect! Beautiful and elegant rooms, high quality food, and exceptional service. In combination with the history and heritage a unique experience. We also visited the nearby Nelson Mandela Foundation and its exhibition which really added to the overall experience. Highly recommend to stay here. But a great place just to go for lunch or dinner also.

Staff were very attentive and friendly

This place is very serene and a fantastic location for holding business sessions. The venue was easy to get to and the staff were very attentive and friendly. The bathrooms were clean and it was lovely to see memorabilia and paintings linked to Madiba there.

All dishes we ordered were so delicious

We went to there to celebrate our birthday celebration. It was Sunday, so we enjoyed all dishes with jazz live. Atmosphere is cozy and modern, staffs are also very warm. This restaurant serves as a tribute to his favourite dishes as previously prepared by his long-time personal chef, Xoliswa Ndoyiya. All dishes we ordered were so delicious, especially tagine chicken!
