Reviews and Ratings
Our stay at Charity Hotel had its ups and downs. The hotel grounds are absolutely lovely, providing a nice atmosphere to relax before and after our safari. The rooms offer beautiful views, but the noise from the corridors is hard to ignore. The service, while warm, cannot completely mask the shortcomings in the dining experience and room conditions. Overall, it has great potential but needs a little more attention to detail.
The Charity Hotel is a solid choice for budget travelers, offering a clean and safe environment with great staff. I enjoyed the lovely garden and the full breakfast each morning, but I did find the overall condition of the hotel quite dated and some amenities lacking. The location was convenient for my needs, though the shower in my room was a bit of a hassle since it wouldn't stay in place. Overall, I felt like I got good value for my money during my month-long stay.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The staff was simply amazing, providing support and guidance throughout my time there. The rooms, while not fancy, were spacious and clean. The serene garden was a perfect place to relax. However, the wait times for food were quite long, and the location is a bit outside of the town, so that may be a concern for some guests.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel with some standout moments, particularly thanks to the amazing staff who were always helpful. The beautiful garden was a calming backdrop, and the price was very reasonable for what I got. However, I did experience some delays with food service and the rooms, while comfortable, could use a bit of modernization. Overall, it was a good, budget-friendly stay.
