The hotel setting was spectacular, and the service was exceptional. Our room was exceptionally quiet. Just exploring the hotel grounds was a mini-adventure! The only area for improvement was in a few of the meals (steak over-cooked, service occasionally slow at Tusk's bar).

5 star hotel with 3 star service.The hotel and the facilities were excellent however the service was very poor on a number of occasions. We also had some issues with the room that weren’t resolved despite raising them a number of times and service in the bars and restaurants was so slow and not very professional. Loved the palace itself and the food was very good but the service was a real let down.

I had stayed in the Palace Hotel 8 years ago and it was fantastic. This trip was a little disappointing because the standards have dropped somewhat. The tents at the pool were torn, one had a missing roof, some fountains and waterfalls did not work. Tlsime ponds were green with algae and water stank in places. The jungle between the palace and valley of waves was messy. However people were very friendly and well trained, breakfast buffet must be one of the best in the world. The palace is a remarkable and unique building, just a pity that standards have slipped a bit. Having said that i would go back again in the future.

Definitely NOT what to expect in a 5 Star hotel
A broken door mechanism should have been replaced - particularly in a room of this category. No turn-down service. Otherwise room is OK. The restaurant "the grill" was most disappointing, with two dishes not available and service either painstakingly slow or no service at all. The evening ended in a "Spur" manner with a little crowd deafeningly screaming "happy birthday" to some guests, in absolute oblivion of the tranquillity of the others. Definitely NOT what you would expect in a 5 Star hotel.

My wife and I would like to praise several members of staff: Itumeleng from Room Service - what a nice and efficient man! Then Maddeleine, Betty, Josephine and Beauty from the Main Restaurant, where we had our 3 breakfasts and 1 dinner The Palace is an incredibly beautiful place - we just admired the decorations (African annimals as statues at the front as well as inside, floor mosaics, the structure of the Palace you see on arrival and on the passage from the lobby to bedrooms

Sun City is nestled in an absolutely beautiful area and truly offers a luxurious escape. We stayed at The Palace which we were really looking forward to. The resort itself offers plenty to do and see, or just relax by the pool, at very affordable prices. The negatives is that our bedding and the linen used in the main restaurant had stains on them each of the days we were there. The Palace itself needs touching up as paint is peeling and umbrellas and such have holes in them. Lastly, the staff kept coming into our room multiple times throughout the day for reasons we couldn't quite figure out. Sometimes it was to clean our room, other times to ask if our room has been cleaned, and a few times a staff member walked in, saw us there and simply walked out. We would definitely visit again but there is definitely room for imporovement.

The entire holiday was an unforgettable first class experience from arrival to checkout. We stayed for 9 nights as a family holiday. Facilities and food were all excellent. The steaks in the Grill Room were among the best we have ever had. Staff could not do enough to help and were really friendly. Would love to come back
