The Hartford house
Impeccable is an understatement.
There’s a luncheon and fine dinning restaurant which offers a 4 course tasting dinner. If you want to sweep someone of their feet go here, you might just end up booking a room there

You better go there on a Saturday, there’s bottomless bubbly (Steernburg) for R100. The food is underwhelming, you can go there for the ambiance.
Your coins must be ready, it’s a bit expensive.

There’s been renovations to revamp the place, it does feel heavy and dull. If you really bored go there and have their Sunday buffet breakfast, it’s worth it.
