Family friendly Hotels in South Africa

"Walking distance to the airport terminal. We had dinner at the food court. Got enough rest before our next flight. "

"This is my fourth stay at the Cullinan over a period of 10 years and they’ve managed to maintain high standards throughout which is very impressive - in terms of food quality, cleanliness, friendly well trained staff and overall decor and state of the hotel. I can highly recommend the property"

"Great location just outside main Waterfront area. Classy nautical theme decor however parts of the hotel do show its age. Great value for money and super friendly staff"

"Good stay"

"We stayed at this hotel on 2 occasions: 2/21-2/23 and 2/28-3/1, that is, before and after our Garden Route Tour and Safari. For our first stay, the staff was kind and accommodating. The night guard recommended an excellent nearby restaurant open late. The devices and power outlets in the room were functional. We ordered an early takeaway breakfast for our road trip, which was made to order, delicious and generously portioned. However, the second stay left much to be desired. The outlets and phone in the room were not working. Since I was sick and needed hot water for tea, soup, etc., my husband had to go downstairs to the lobby 4 times to ask maintenance to reset the circuit every time we tried to boil the water, recharge our mobile phones, etc. In the morning, I discovered that the shower door was broken and could not be closed properly, but not until I was in it and wet. My husband was downstairs and could not help me get out. The floor ended up wet and slippery. At checkout, the lady listened to our complaints, but did not offer even a partial refund. She suggested an upgraded room when we return. I don't think we will be returning. They did store our luggage from the checkout time (11 am) until our departure (6 pm). When my husband returned to pick up the luggage, he requested a bottled water, figuring they could at least give us a free water for the trip to the airport after everything that had transpired. They said they did not provide free water."

"Perfect for a cheap stay near the airport. No frills, just a bed to sleep in. "

"The spa is excellent. Well trained staff and great massage and facial. Room was clean. But towels are very small. Unfortunately the power kept going off and their generator only provided lighting, no power sockets or tv which was frustrating. Investing in a better generator backup system would be good for customers. Breakfast was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. "

"Great service and location "

"The Southern Sun O. R. Tambo Hotel was a home away from home for us. We stayed there one day at the beginning of our trip to South Africa and for three days at the end. The hotel staff did everything they could to make us feel welcome. The hotel is very clean and well-appointed. The breakfast is amazing! And the restaurant was excellent for lunch and dinner as well. The best thing about the hotel was the staff -- they helped us with every request with a smile, whether it was large or small. I would definitely stay there again."
