Yalla Yalla Boutique Hotel

I recently stayed at this lovely facility and I am pleased beyond expectation with the exceptional service I received from booking to my departure. The staff was friendly and available to serve at all times. The food was delicious, with an excellent presentation. Yalla Yalla is a perfect home away from home. When in Witbank I will sure return to this perfect home. Thank You Yalla Yalla for making my stay in Witbank as pleasant and memorable as it was. I loved and enjoyed my stay, thanx and gratitute to the entire staff, from reception, to the cooks, to the cleaners and those in the background 👌✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

I stayed here for 6 nights. Do not understand why it has got a four star rating. Breakfast was never on requested time. Always late. Steak was served well done no choice offered. Cold breakfast was not available. Cottage pie was burnt. Had to ask for milk at coffee station.

All that glitters is not gold! This place is the epitome of half-hearted, shallow, external appearance with absolutely no focus on what is on the inside. Good for a chic appearance on the runway and to be discarded after the 10 minute show! I only stayed here for one night and thank goodness I didn't spend a minute longer. The rooms are adequately sized with an interesting theme (mine was London), but I wasn't aware the white in England flag colours was meant to be mimicked as a dirty yellowish/brown. The England flag carpet had grey stripes that were possibly once white. The same applied to the bed cover. The pedestals were warped and fraying at the edges, some more than others. There were watermarks and cracks on the walls. The bed's base was dusty and looked like an infestation of creatures could erupt at any moment. To top it all off, in this South African summer, the room uses a totally ineffective ceiling fan. What is boutique about no air conditioning, struggling to breathe and sweating your.......? The TV looked modern but I did not get the opportunity to watch from my uncomfortable bed. From afar the set up looks nice but the detail and finishes were spectacularly poor. Dinner was an absolute disaster. The 3 wing starter was burnt. The butternut was burnt. The spinach (I think it was spinach) tasted acrid. The presentation on the big, shiny plate looked enticing, but the portion was small and tasteless besides the charcoal/cigarette butt taste. Hunger after a hard day at the coal face drove me to gulp down what I could, but I had to go and find other food. Breakfast was a dog's breakfast. The hash browns had enough oil to drown in, the baked beans were as cold as London in winter, the eggs were good for a game of squash and the bacon smiled in its dark grey hue and looked well beyond its best before date (possibly a reason for my long stop at the Total garage on my way back to Joburg). There wasn't even a choice with the type of toast I could have. The fruit salad was quite fresh, crunchy and bright though. The climax was that the breakfast and dinner are served in rooms that are devoid of any natural light and look rather dreary, gloomy and uninspired. The "uncapped" Wi-Fi that they raved about was intermittent. My phone's MTN 4G was far more reliable. The indoor pool, surrounded by all the rooms was looking crystal. If you're agitated and excited by appearance, this is the place for you. What lies underneath is an eye sore. The only reason I awarded 2 stars was to recognise the excellent service and attention from the lady at reception. A true service connoisseur who truly seems to enjoy solving problems for customers. 1 star belongs to her alone! Other than that this is truly a place to just lay your head in discomfort and misery for a maximum of one night.
