"Hopewell is potentially a stupendous destination. Accommodation was excellent and luxurious. I feel they tried too hard to provide very fancy food that did not quite come off and this could be improved. They do not have the Big 5 but there is plenty of game to see and the Ranger is excellent. This is a fantastic location for a honeymoon or just a peaceful getaway in the Eastern Cape Bush."

It felt like diner was prepared during the day and heated up in the evening, just not fresh. Breakfast was really poor. Only meal that was good was the lunch. No snacks during the day.

Radisson Blu Hotel, Port Elizabeth

8/10 Good
"Good breakfast, close proximity to a shopping centre (within walking distance), great view of the beach. The blackout curtains however don't close all the way, and shower door doesn't close all the way so there's water everywhere after you shower. But overall clean and friendly staff."
