Excellent experience at Illovo Hotel

To stay on campus was really great and to have then have all the necessity's and more made it an even greater experience. It was like being at home but cutting out all the travel. The rooms was comfortable, I had all I needed and the staff were very friendly. They even assisting when I fell ill and meds were delivered by a local pharmacy and I was brought water as well. Definitely an excellent experience.

Professional service, small but clean room. No elevator but beautiful campus surrounding with restaurant and coffee shop. Cleaning staff can be a bit noisy in the morning. So not ideal if you want to sleep in a bit the next morning. Wifi speed was the fastest encountered in all my hotel stays the last few weeks.

Everything was great. The breakfast place was wonderful. They have a way of rating them called 'rate my plate'. I forgot to do it but it was very good and made us an omelette with just eggwhites. Thank you.
