Fodor's Expert Review Aristo Manor Guesthouse
16 Whydah Wing, Richards Bay, KwaZulu Natal, 3900, South Africa
Minutes from the airport and close to Richard's Bay and Lake Mzingazi, this elegant seven-room guesthouse combines all the personalized service of a bed-and-breakfast with the amenities of an inn or small hotel. Each of the manor's spacious rooms is charmingly done up with period antiques. Some with four-poster beds, and all have en suite bathrooms and all the modern conveniences: TV, Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, and a stocked bar fridge (extra). There's also a comfortable lounge-dining room where you can relax with a drink in a leather club chair. A small pool and dining option make this a nicely self-contained place to wind down. Don't miss the on-site spa. There's self catering apartments called Town Hopper on-site, too.
