Highly recommend a stay here!

Perfect for an airport layover

Reviewed By Mely662

We found Aero Guest Lodge as we were looking for somewhere to stay nearby to go off on our safari early the next morning. As soon as you get within the gates of the property the hotel felt so calm and the staff were really friendly. They provide a free shuttle service which is fantastic when you have an early morning. The room was spacious and the bathroom was lovely. Of course as the airport is nearby you do hear the planes but for our stay it ticked all the boxes.

Stranded outside with no response

Reviewed By Wayne G

We notified them of our late arrival and received an acknowledgement. But when we arrived at 9:30 pm we were locked out. No response to the gate buzzer, phone call, text, or email. We were simply stranded outside on the corner. Had to find other accommodations. Called the next day and were told that they close the desk at 8:00 pm, sorry. Terrible, simply terrible way to run a guest house.

The Hotel has beautiful themed Suites surrounded by a lovely garden and pool area. I stayed in the Presidential Suite which was very pleasant | spacious and comfortable. There is a beautiful Piano Lounge which has unique antiques with a great ambiance. The cuisine was great and the service was excellent.
