    This is what I call... luxury.
    The Palace Hotel is just stunning in design and fantastic to make your stay extra enjoyable.
    The decor is stunning and very african. Go on spoil yourself!!

    Not to far from the Palace, there is the Valley of the Waves, which is a man made sea where you can brave the wave machine and ride the waves.

    The main attraction at Lost City is the hotel, although it's not merely called the hotel, it's "THE PALACE.
    Why the Palace? Maybe because its outer doors are as big as King Kong. Maybe it's the dining room that's half the size of the Sky-Dome. Or Maybe -- and this is where fantasy borders on delerium -- it's the wilderness painting on the ceiling of the Rotunda that was created much the same way as Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel.
    Hans and I were only allowed in the main area as the security guard reminded us that we were not guests at the hotel -- sorry "the Palace".

    Well this is one stunning Hotel.

    The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City is one of the most enticing travellers' destinations in the world, a tribute to man's imagination and revered for its art and architecture. Fabled to be the royal residence of an ancient king, it is truly one of the 'Worlds Leading Hotels". The Palace lavishes its guests with 5-star service, and is luxurious in every facet of its fabulous architecture and décor.

    Surrounding the hotel is a 25 hectare botanical jungle. The jungle is threaded with meandering paths, cascades, lakes and pools and a variety of water-borne adventure rides.

    There are three hotels you can stay in, The Cabanas, The Cascades and Sun City Hotel. The least expensive is The Cabanas.

    Included in your hotel cost is a very generous buffet breakfast, with the highest quality fruit laid on. One thing that South Africa has plenty supply of is excellent quality, succulent fruit :)

    Each hotel is fully equipped with all types of facilities. The Cabanas is the least expensive and the one that my brother and his wife's family stay in most often. They go annually.

    Of the 3 hotels in Sun City, this is the least formal, and the most relaxed. They have all the facilities you would expect a hotel of this standard to have: Digital TV, television in the rooms, air conditioning (VERY important for this part of the world! The bushveld in South Africa is hot and dry)

    It has 380 rooms and leads down to Waterworld.

    • The Palace sits proudly on top of a hill overlooking the Valley of the waves, and the rest of the Sun City resort.

    The rooms are large and airy, and a full of the opulant touches.

    • I have stayed in lots of nice hotels & I have to say that this is by far the most impressive and my favourite.

    As we turned into the driveway, we were blown away by the architecture & ornamental features and had to stop the car just to take it in.

    Our room was huge, luxuriously furnished with an impressive bathroom.

    The service is top notch. The Palace has it's own pool that is not shared with the rest of the resort (though you have full use of all of the resort facilities). When lying by the pool you wouldn't notice the staff as they were unobtrusive but they seemed to anticipate our every wish. If we stirred because we wanted a drink, a waiter would materialise as we were finishing the though. If we wanted another towel, a memeber of staff would be there with one.

    If you want to to stay at one of the best hotels in the world, put this one on your list.

    Unfortunately I have never stayed in this hotel, but then again Sol Kerzner prefers the main hotel to this one, so I think I will take my que from him. Also from prices ranging between R5,000 and R50,000 it is just a bit too rich for my blood. I have visited the hotel on many occasions and chances are good that you will bump into someone famous.
