Description:
Hilton Manor Guesthouse
is situated in the rapidly developing town of Ermelo in
Mpumalanga. Set in the quiet and idyllic suburb of John Vorster
Park, the guesthouse is conveniently close to most amenities
like shopping centres, restaurants, banks, hospitals, etc. and
only a stones throw away from Ermelo High School.
The owner, Rina Fourie, recently acquired the property and
developed it into this beautiful guesthouse. Rina has gone to
great lengths to achieve the level of style and comfort that
Hilton Manor offers its guests. Each room is uniquely decorated
with extreme attention to detail. From the electric blankets and
luxurious percale linen that ensures guests sleep like Kings and
Queens, to the chocolates placed on freshly laundered towels, no
detail is to large or small to go un-noticed. The lounge and
dining room are richly decorated and offer a warm and cozy
atmosphere in which to enjoy conversation and meals. Guests can
also enjoy the beautiful and tranquil garden boasting an
enchanting dome, relaxing water feature, swing and lapa which
set the scene for total relaxation.
The vision that Rina has for Hilton Manor is to provide its
guests with a memorable experience that keeps them coming back
for more.
