Chic city guide...
Pentravel is the leading retail travel group specialising in leisure and holiday travel. We are part of the Cullinan group, a public company
which is one of the most exciting travel organisations in South Africa. Pentravel is also one of the oldest travel businesses in the country, founded in 1983, and is the only national travel agency whose head office is based in KwaZulu Natal.
At present we have 25 shops nationally, situated in all the upmarket shopping malls with a Call Centre in Durban called PenDirect.
Pentravel sells all types of airfares – local, regional and international – but leads the way in its own special holiday airfares that combine airfares and hotel accommodation or resort packages, car hire or touring for not much more than the airfare alone. We are the Cruise experts and Ski specialists. Pentravel also provides foreign exchange, travel insurance and visa services. We put our own people first and ensure we employ outstanding people who are passionate about travel. This commitment together with a focus on training ensures a superior customer experience. We are the only travel company in the country that subsidises each and every Travel Advisor in our team to travel every year, ensuring we have firsthand knowledge.
At Pentravel we like to sell the difference; focusing on personal service, great advice and excellent value. We have a high rate of repeat and referral business. We are dying to meet you, so please call in or walk in for a free consultation and quote – its fun to dream a little.

S outh Africans can now afford to visit in London in style with a host of new inexpensive designer hotels!
City of Westminster» STAY The Rubens at the Palace. As the hotel situated closest to Buckingham Palace in London, it is the next best thing to being at home with the Royal family.
Our favourite. It oozes traditional English hospitality, with the ‘Royal Rooms’ each named after an English monarch, leaving you with a true sense of being in the very heart of noble London, but without the stiff upper lip. Its location, on the doorstep of the Royal Mews allows you to spy through your window on the comings-and-goings of the guardsmen. Ten minutes walk take you to Victoria Station and some of London’s best shops, theatres and restaurants, such as the B Bar restaurant.Ruben’s from R1 500 per person per night (room only)
South Kensington» STAY Base2stay. Stylish new concept chain with self catering.

Close to Shoreditch and its trendy bars, restaurants, art galleries and design-label boutiques, the Hoxton is described in his own words as an “urban lodge” and “no bulls**t” hotel.The Hoxton from R995per person per night» SHOP Spitalfields Market.
