The Troyeville Hotel attracts a broad spectrum of consumers and they even have a lot of business people visiting their premises for lunch during the week.“We also have families consisting of up to three generations visiting over the weekend. Naturally, grandparents reflect on yesteryear. They share a lot of anecdotes with their children and the grandchildren about how they used to visit the hotel and the significance that the hotel had in their lives,” De Lima says.
