Otherwise all in all it was okay
The hotel was okay the only issue was: They did not adhere to my request which was to combine the single beds into one. I had to complain about it and it was attended.

Will definitely return to this hotel next year.
Highly recommended. Hotel staff were friendly, helpful and polite. The room was great with air con. The staff refilled the complimentary in room coffee. Fresh bedding everyday. If you ask me this should not be a three star hotel. I give it five stars and I will definitely be returning next year.

Not so "Best Price"
Elephant Lake Inn was fine. Standard package tour accommodation with TV (few channels, no news) tea facilities and amenities. Unfortunately no fridge. Decent Wifi in lobby, though Hotels.com had it listed as in room. Only actual complaint is regarding Hortels. com price guarantee. Upon check-in, the hotel had us listed as Expedia clients with a nightly rate of 630 ZAR including breakfast. Hotels.com "Best Price Guarantee" price was 770 ZAR, a whopping 140ZAR per night difference.

Elephant Lake Inn
The inn is in a good location, just around the corner from the eating places. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were great and the breakfast was lovely. For a supposedly 3star rating it was excellent. I will definitely go back again.
