黃金島主題公園飯店(Gold Reef City Theme Park Hotel)

這是我們第三次入住這家飯店參加 94.7 Ride JHB 自行車賽。新的管理確實對設施和所有員工的整體態度產生了很大的影響。地理位置優越，輕鬆騎乘即可到達 FNB 體育場的起點/終點約 5 公里。房間翻新得很好，特別是巴尼斯餐廳。早餐很棒，午餐和晚餐也很棒。週六午餐時非常忙，因為主題樂園真的很忙，但他們應付了，只需要一點耐心，因為食物品質不會因此而受到影響。

非常方便，房間舒適寬敞，位於遊樂園中間，早餐很棒。孩子們度過了最美好的時光，我們很享受輕鬆享受所有娛樂。友好而樂於助人的工作人員為我們的美好體驗增添了許多色彩。

公園可能很精彩，但人群控制卻異常糟糕。你要等幾個小時才能上車，因為人們不斷插隊。當你向員工報告此事時，他們什麼也沒做。這些隊列需要持續監控和監管，否則會影響體驗並導致不必要的緊張和衝突。您的客人不應該負責維持秩序。這是我第一次來，懷疑我是否會回來。失望的

I stayed at the Gold Reef Theme Park Hotel from 6 to 9 September. My room number was 131. Once entering the block of rooms, there was a sewerage smell on the ground floor. The latch on my door lock was broken. These are relatively insignificant against the poor service and food quality at the Barney Restaurant. On the Thursday night I ordered a fairly simple dish, fish and vegetables. I waited 45 min for the food and on arrival the vegetables were raw. Uncooked butternut is very hard to chew and swallow. I sent a piece back for the chef to try. The waiter came back and said the chef agrees. With that, he put down a bowl of salad, said sorry, and left.

有史以來最好的體驗！友好的工作人員，很棒的住宿。 我所有的期望都超越了！ 我會一次又一次地訪問

We started at the Gold Reef City Theme Park Hotel in November, and the first noticeable and pretty unique thing about this hotel is that, unlike most theme park hotels which are outside the parks’ gates, this one is literally in the middle of the theme park. This makes it an ideal location to enjoy the park and not have to faff around with taxis, monorails or the other methods of getting into other theme parks around the world. Entry to the park is free for hotel guests. You go the reception every morning and they give you a wristband which get you on to all the rides. This is a nice little extra which also makes it exceptional value for money. We have stayed at theme park hotels at parks in Europe and the US, where you get charged extra for park tickets so it was great to see that wasn’t the case here. The theme park itself is stunning and I’ve written a separate review just of the theme park. There’s also a ****** on site with various chain restaurants and the Apartheid Museum which are both easy walking distance, or the staff are more than happy to take you in the mini bus or golf buggy, just ask at reception, they did this several times for us. The room felt a bit dated. The bed was comfortable enough, but the room just felt a bit bland and like it needed modernising. The front door to our room was very thin and that could do with being replaced. The light in the bathroom also stayed on permanently which was kind of annoying. The hotel grounds are very nice. They have gardeners everywhere and they do an amazing job at keeping the gardens looking nice. We didn’t bother eating at Barney’s restaurant in the evening but we did have breakfast there which was also included (again, making it a great value experience). The breakfast was pretty good, but at dinner time the restaurant looked too bright and didn’t look to have much atmosphere, so we instead ate at the restaurants over in the ****** building which were ok, but nothing amazing. There’s also a small pool at the hotel which had some table and chairs around it but surprisingly no sun loungers so we only sat by the pool once in the evening, when Barney’s bar was busy with a corporate function. It looks like some new rooms are being built, and so perhaps the hotel are in the process of updating all the rooms. Either way, I’d still return here. The location of the hotel, the helpfulness of the hotel staff, especially the reception team who were very kind and friendly, and the overall experience we had were all pretty excellent, so I’d definitely return and I’d recommend this hotel to others. The hotel also offer an airport transfer service, our driver was very friendly and took us all the way to the hotel reception, which was very handy for us as we’d not visited before so would probably have got lost otherwise. It’s also worth mentioning that the site is kept very safe. It’s gated and security staff are everywhere, as well as safes in the hotel rooms for valuables.

Since there aren't many reviews, I'll be a little more comprehensive: The hotel is literally inside the theme park- this is very cool. Getting in and out is not a problem. The rooms are spread out across a number of two-story buildings, so if you book two rooms, as we did, make sure you request they be in the same building. Rooms are fine- we had one suite and one non-suite- wifi and bathrooms are good, beds are comfortable, cleaning was not spotless. The inclusion of admission with the room makes this an incredible value for families. The restaurant available before/after park opening for guests, Barney's, is solid. The breakfast buffet is generous and eggs can be made to order. The hotel's technology is still paper-based in many areas, so don't expect an app or anything like that. The dinner options at Barney's were also solid- not gourmet, but above US theme park standards for sure. The bar is just okay- we had two of the worst glasses of wine we've ever had (didn't drink more than a sip as the bottles had probably been open a while) but then we had a nice bottle newly opened. The theme park is quite good- clean, with 5 coasters of varying thrill levels. The minigolf should not be missed (so different than beach mini-golfs in the US) but they only had a limited number of balls (!!). Staff was friendly and helpful whenever we had a question or issue. Overall, if Gold Reef City Theme Park is on your agenda, we'd highly recommend considering this as a spot to stay.

It was the day before my birthday and I needed a quiet space to work. Siphiwe and his team were so accommodating to me and my family. They organised accommodation for us and took time to mind the little details like ensuring the room was warm upon arrival and they left me a slice of the yummiest chocolate cake with orange slices - a surprisingly divine pairing. Thank you Siphiwe, Tshidi and Sebi. We really appreciated the exceptional service.

Very nice hotel room, very modern. You get free entrance to the theme park.
