Top 10 Crystal Court Hotels

advantage: The overall architecture and garden view of the hotel are great, the swimming pool and restaurant are great The room has welcome wine and snacks, and the room is facing the swimming pool to take pictures nice The service of the staff is very good, which is praised. shortcoming: Room: I booked a king-size bed of 51 square meters in the online reservation, but the room arranged by the hotel is not like this at all. The room is not big and the bed is small. If you have booked on trips, you'd better confirm that the travel agency agent booked the room you want. Then the mattress collapsed and I slept very tired. Can hear the noise all night don't know what machine in the hotel is causing it. Bathroom: toilet and shower The bathtub is very small, the hot and cold water is not well adjusted, and the bathrobe is too old. Restaurant: Buffet in the morning and in the evening. There are not many things to accept in the morning. You can sit outside and face the swimming pool to feed the birds. They like to eat grapes. The quality of the buffet at night is very poor and it is not recommended to eat. You can go to the grill room next to you to eat, remember to make an appointment, that location is great for taking pictures, bonfire + dinner. Travel: The hotel has a fixed number of buses to pick you up to the area you want to go to the resort. If you drive by yourself, you can only park your car at the hotel. There is basically no parking space outside and you cannot drive in the park by yourself. Summary: If you come to Sun City, South Africa, this hotel is worth staying, and it is worthy of the 5-star feeling. But don't be too demanding about the food. The overall score is 7.8, which is one of the must-see items when you come to South Africa.

Rooms are well-equipped & very spacious, however decor is dated. House keeping pop.in several times daily to top everything up tidy up shut curtains, turn beds down. Breakfast is plentiful & good quality however restaurant is extremely busy at weekends. Pool Area is lovely however pools are not very clean,sand,leaves & insects in abundance. Free bus service to anywhere in sun city. The staff were all extremely friendly and polite, especially Busi. Would definitely stay again

In January 2024, my husband, our 20-month-old son, our 19-year-old niece, and I set out on a family adventure to Sun City in South Africa. Nestled near the Pilanesberg National Park, we sought a break from our daily safari explorations and were curious to discover if Sun City could cater to the diverse ages in our group. The result? A mix of delightful moments and unexpected frustrations, all of which I'll share to help you plan your visit. The Valley of the Waves: A Family Oasis: Our primary draw to Sun City was the ”Valley of the Waves.” This water park, though smaller compared to international counterparts, boasts a wave pool, splash area for little ones, lazy river, zip-lining, and water slides ranging from mild to heart-pounding. It was the perfect family-friendly hub and we really enjoyed our time there. Ticket Wisdom: Pre-purchase and Plan Early. One key lesson we learned - buy your tickets online before arriving. The gates don't sell tickets. For a non-peak midweek ticket, we paid 395 Rand per person, and children under three enter free. The ticket included full-day access to the Valley of the Waves, Access to Sun City 80 Rand voucher which you MUST use all at one time (annoying) and ONLY at the food kiosks in the Valley of the Waves + a few of the food stalls in the adjacent food court. ASK BEFORE YOU ORDER. Food Frustrations: Sneak in Snacks for Toddlers A notable frustration for us was the restriction on bringing outside food. With a toddler who needed specific snacks, we wish we'd snuck in toddler-friendly snacks. Next time, we will. It was a bit galling to us that the Valley of the Waves is a family location, but doesn't offer any food stalls where you can buy baby-friendly and toddler-friendly snacks that are not fast food (ie fruit. crackers. yogurt. etc). The food options within the Valley of the Waves, while plentiful, leaned heavily towards fast food, posing a challenge for our picky eater. Tip: Carefully and intelligently hide what you need for your baby so you aren't struggling to feed baby (if you don't like/want to serve fast food to baby). They DO check your bags but not super carefully. I think small containers of fruit or crackers or cheese etc will likely go unnoticed. Maybe split it up among your party's bags. Sorry not sorry. Transportation Trials Buses and Beyond: Upon arrival, we were directed to park at the day visitor parking and wait for a bus to take us to the welcome center. Unfortunately, communication was seriously lacking, and we found ourselves standing with our toddler, unsure of the next steps. It took multiple trips back to the gate (you'll need to drive there from the bus stop) to understand that even though no one as working at the bus stop (it was deserted at 8:30 am) the cameras on the platform were being monitored and ...eventually a bus showed up. Tip: Ask specific questions at the gate: Can you call a bus for us? When will the bus arrive? HOW long should we expect it to take? The staff

There is free parking, rooms are relatively small, breakfast is ok, the surroundings of the hotel are beautiful, and there are some facilities for children to play. It is suitable for families with children.

It has a royal style, the decoration is more royal, the garden is very beautiful, and the gardening style is also royal, but the residence feels more like a homestay. Parking and access are convenient and safe. The boss is very nice, and the breakfast is quite pure and royal style, very satisfied
