Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with better value for money than the basic rooms. The views of downtown Maseru and the mountains, especially at sunset, were breathtaking. However, some rooms had a similar problem as the basic ones booked through Booking.
The hotel offers decent rooms with all home comforts provided, but the noise from the elevator shaft can be bothersome. The staff can be more attentive and friendly, with some instances of delayed service. The location provides stunning views and is suitable for those who prefer a quieter stay within the confines of Maseru. The dining experience offers a fair selection of foods, and the facilities are well-maintained.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice and clean, but being near the elevator shaft made it quite noisy. The service was warm and welcoming despite some staff not having proper knowledge. The location was excellent, offering a great view of the city and the mountains. The dining options were decent with generous servings.
I felt lucky with the stunning mountain top views from the hotel, although it could use some sprucing up. The room had a bar fridge, but the carpets need replacing. The pricing was reasonable but lacked clarity on food options.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with stunning mountain views and decent rooms. The service was pleasant overall, though there were some moments lacking attention. The location on the mountain top was excellent despite minor room for improvement. The dining experience was good with a variety of choices. The facilities met my expectations.
