"Mount Nelson Hotel review"
2 nights Arrived 18 Dec 2023
"Beautiful place with very helpful and friendly staff.
What we liked most was the overall atmosphere of the place.
It’s a bit of a pity that we got here at the very beginning of our safari route and not in the middle, when you want to relax and unwind in comfort and coziness." See all these reviews: 7n in Kenya; 3n in Rwanda; 3n in Botswana; 3n in Tanzania; 2n in South Africa; 2n in Zimbabwe

"Mount Nelson Hotel review"
4 nights Arrived 8 Sep 2023
"The hotel itself was amazing, as was most of the staff.
We loved the daily breakfast buffet and the concierge was extremely helpful and proficient. We did experience some issues with the "rusty" water in our bathroom which was promptly taken care of by the facility staff.
They really don't have casual dining on site. The Red Room and The Verandah have limited reservations. The Lounge and Planet Bar have a limited menu and the service is very limited if you choose to sit in the Lounge. You're better off walking down to the one of the restaurants close by if you are just looking for a quick bite to eat." See all these reviews: 6n in Botswana; 4n in South Africa; 2n in Zimbabwe
