Nice meal, very good service.
This is review of restaurant only. I went for meals here, both dinners and some breakfast, but I was staying in a guest house nearby. This location is excellent for quick access to the central business district, but it’s also very quiet. The hotel is exceptionally friendly, Service was always prompt and they listen to my special request for ways to cook or spice my food. Today I had a particularly excellent breakfast sitting out in the sun and an outdoor patio, my mail came quickly and just as I asked for it

Decent stay, room for improvement
The hotel is perfectly located in Gaborone, close to all the major places and sites worth seeing in the Capital. A walking distance to the Three Dikgosi Monument and Fields Mall. I liked this convenience that the hotel offered. The hotel also has plenty of rooms, over 14 and has a Spa, conference venues and a restaurant. There is also a pool inside and the main entrance is guarded with security personnel.
Upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed by a gentleman named Sebalo, who also adjusted my booking to a room that he recommended, has better Wifi connectivity, to which I agreed. I appreciated this as the Wifi in the Kgosi room was good during my stay. I also liked that I had covered parking, which I didn't need to pre-book, located close to the room.
I also had a decent breakfast for all the days here, prepared promptly and with care by a lady called Violet. I welcomed this value for money aspect to my stay. She was very friendly, warm and tried by all means to vary the breakfast options and presentation on all three days which I appreciated.
The room was spacious, had adequate lighting, Aircon, LCD tv, coffee station and kettle and enough mirrors all round. There were also enough bins in the room, an extra blanket and the bedding was clean. There was a desk and chair, which ensured that I could spend some time catching up on my reading in the room. There was no safe and I had to arrange my own twin plug, which was not an issue.
The toilet was separate from the shower which I liked and there was shampoo available. Clean towels were on offer, regularly.replaced and room service was offered. The hotel was peaceful and I did not experience any major distractions. I also liked that I paid once I got to the hotel and that no deposit was withheld.
Where I think the hotel could have scored more for me was in the following - there was no info-welcome sheet in the room that orientated me to the rules of the hotel, wifi password, breakfast times, lunch or dinner, important emergency numbers and nearby sites worth seeing for instance which is common in most hotels. I had to ask many of these and Sebalo was of assistance. I feel that the hymn sheet would have made it much easier. I found a booklet about sites to see in Gaborone close to the reception area, which I only saw and made use of during breakfast. Those booklets can be placed in the rooms as a suggestion.
The bed was not comfortable at all for me and there were some small insects here and there in the room which was not pleasant to see. This is where the hotel dropped points from me. I believe that if the hotel works on these few items, it could do better.
However, the service I received from Sebalo and Violet, together with the convenience of the location, shaded parking, breakfast and good wifi in the room, made the stay decent overall.

African home disappointment
The outlook on arrive is not bad however the rooms are dull and basic to say the least. Staff is friendly but the poor facilities and excessive noise from the bar area from outside visitors made it unbearable to stay in. Numerous request to reduce volume and screaming patrons went unattended till the early hours of the morning. More respect and accommodation is provided to day visitors than paying staying residents

The only possitive thing is that staff was helpful howeer they supposed to arrange airport pick up and did not happen
Beside on Expedia website is a statement that airport shattle is free of charge and it is not
This hotel is noteworthy thd money

I stayed three nights and the room was clean and simple. Amazing wifi, but poor tv reception and selection. My room was near the office and spa and there was a lot of foot traffic and noise -- I'd recommend a room on the second floor. They seem to be renovating so there was renovation noise after 9 am too. Pool looked good but was too cold to try it out. Nice breakfast included. I had two strange breakfast related experiences. First, I was told breakfast was served between 7 and 9 am, but then got a call at 6:30 am my first morning to ask what time I wanted breakfast. On my third morning, I had someone knocking on my door with room service at 7 am. I hadn't requested room service/breakfast at all so that was odd. Very nice personnel and not a mosquito!
