I had the pleasure of getting a hot stone massage at Safari park hotel. I enjoyed their friendly staff, the steam bath and sauna. The massage was done by a bubbly young girl. Her technical expertise was apparent by the consultation done before the massage. Leaving as a very happy and relaxed client!
