Top UNISA Hotel Reviews

CT Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean room and good breakfast"

Muckleneuk Manor

8/10 Good

"Overall decent stay. I will say the place looks like it hasn’t had a refresh in a while because the pictures don’t look like how we experienced it. Maybe it’s because it’s off season or something. Also, the breakfast isn’t like the pictures and it’s a small portion. Staff was wonderful. The roof is tin so when it rains it’s extremely loud."

Muckleneuk Manor Guesthouse

8/10 Good

"Dineo was warm and welcoming. She was friendly and professional, they had only one room available yet I travelled with my teen son. She offered to separate the king bed to make 2 singles which was not perfect. The only thing was the shower curtain is sheer, so if travelling with a friend or older child, it’s not very practical."

Manhattan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"An awesome place with excellent service"

StayEasy Pretoria

10/10 Excellent

"EVERYTHING EXCELLENT AND SPLENDID. I L"

ANEW Hotel Capital Pretoria

10/10 Excellent

"A professional and well maintained and serviced Hotel."
