“Weekend Away” Suites (at Urban Square Hotel)

The selection of suites offered at our Urban Square Hotel are very popular with couples and groups of holiday makers alike, as a “weekend away” accommodation option.

Each of these suites comes with a king-sized bed – you also have the option to convert this into two single beds – as well as a 43-inch Smart TV (with pre-programmed Netflix and DStv), a separate shower with double basin, as well as a bath.
