    Booked for my parents. Their feedback: "Had the most amazing stay at Fernwood. Our reception on arrival by Nathan was warm and friendly. We stayed in the executive suite with the mountain view. It was quiet & peaceful & everything was so clean, and we felt we could use a hotel bath tub for the first time because of how clean it was. Clean linen, excellent room. Very friendly staff, an excellent breakfast and all round excellent stay. It exceeded expectations. We'll definitely come back".

    Location is fantastic - close enough to the upbeat Kloof street yet quiet and peaceful in the rooms. The entire hotel has luxurious finishings and the bathroom is gorgeous. We stayed in the luxury suite which has a balcony and a lovely view. Furthermore we really enjoyed the valet service and the breakfast was superb - many choices for different diet requirements - we were spoilt and treated like royalty. Staff were lovely too! So warm and welcoming, always smiling and jovial.
