“Super Saxon”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

We used this hotel as a base when visiting several safari camps. This property is to say the least, fantastic! A 5 star rating is severly underrated for this place. Rooms were spacious, beautifully appointed with African tribal artifacts, and had a complimentary bar. The restaurant food was fantastic, and room service food was restaurant quality. The extras such as,... More

“Great place but...”

Reviewed 2 June 2013

Wonderful resort, great service. However, if you have food issues BEWARE! I cannot have gluten. I explained it to each of the eateries and the wait staff. One afternoon, I ordered an appetizer and questioned if it was gluten free. The chef of the moment came out and said it was absolutely fine. NOT SO! I was sick the next... More

“Qunu Restaurant Saxon Boutique Hotel - Delightful!”

Reviewed 27 May 2013

How much can you improve and reinvent yourself? Learn the lesson by visiting the Saxon again and again. We went for dinner at the Qunu Restaurant (a location we've known and enjoyed for 10 years although we do live in the area) only to discover a new gorgeous, refreshed warmer decor making it more welcoming than ever. Not that there... More

“It's clear from the moment you enter the grounds that this is where foreign dignitaries stay”

Reviewed 15 May 2013

We chose the Saxon on two separate visits because of its reputation for quality, and we were not disappointed. When a guest in our party had a severe reaction to a stinging insect, they summoned a private physician immediately, even though it was in the evening. Very attentive service. It's clear from the moment you enter the grounds that this... More
