King George's Guesthouse, Port Elizabeth, South Africa - Accomodation in Port Elizabeth for the 2010 Soccer World Cup

The King George's Guesthouse in King George's Road, Mill Park, Port Elizabeth, South Africa is a great place to stay for the 2010 Soccer World Cup. It is across the road from where I live. Our family and friends have used it and found it excellent - last used this December 2009.  Here is why it is just right:

• It is very comfortable
• It is in a safe area
• It is guarded by an electric fence
• It has electronic gares
• It is 100m from a supermarket (the SPAR in Cape Road)
• It is 5 minutes from an exellent Golf Course - The Port Elizabeth Golf Club
• It is about 10 minutes from the airport
• It is about 5 minutes from the freeway (beltway)
• It is about 10/15 minutes from the Casino on the Beach Front
• AND it is not too far from the Soccer Stadium

I spoke to the Guesthouse today (29 December 2009). There is still some accomodation available

Caution: When crossing King George's road on foot cross in the middle of the block as cars come round the two corners of the block quite fast. And remember: Cars drive on the left of the road!
