    We absolutely love staying at Life & Leisure! It's become our go-to hotel during our trips to this area. the intimate atmosphere and convenient location make it a top choice for us. the rooms are well-appointed and comfortable, and we always have a great night's sleep. the breakfast spread never disappoints, with a variety of delicious options to choose from. the staff, including the owner, are welcoming and genuinely attentive to our needs. We appreciate their patience and flexibility, especially when we've needed to return late in the night. the modern and sophisticated facilities add to the overall enjoyable experience. We highly recommend Life & Leisure and can't wait to return. Cons: All good 👍.

    I had an amazing value for my money at this hotel. The room had a lovely balcony where I could enjoy drinks with friends while stargazing. The location was perfect, just a short walk away from restaurants and the town center. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

    The breakfast selection could have been better.

    Our stay at the Rattray/Van Reibeck property was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the warm and gracious hospitality of our host. The room itself was spacious, comfortable, and immaculately clean. We were delighted to find fluffy gowns, complimentary wines, and little snacks waiting for us. The breakfast provided was beyond scrumptious and the service was top-notch. The location couldn't have been better, with all the restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. We felt safe and secure throughout our stay, and the on-site car park was a convenient perk. The communal areas were beautifully decorated and provided a modern and inviting atmosphere. The big, warm bed was perfect for a good night's sleep. The separate and quiet outside room was an added bonus. We were also impressed with the services available during loadshedding. our experience at this property was mind-blowing and we highly recommend it!

    We got amazing value for our money with a complete floor of a building, massive bedrooms, and super comfortable beds. The location was convenient for accessing town, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating.

    The breakfast option could be improved with more variety and better portion sizes.

    Great location, close to restaurants and shops. Friendly and helpful staff.- Enjoyed the breakfast options, especially the fresh fruit salad

    Noisy construction noise disturbed my sleep in the morning. Room was small and noisy, especially being near the restaurant and hotel entry.

    This accommodation is located in a great spot, with many restaurants within walking distance. the yummy Fat Butcher restaurant is close by. Being able to walk to restaurants and shops is very convenient.

    There was an issue with the lights in the stairway not working, which made it difficult to see at night.
