Amazing Race 7 Hotel Report: African Karma

Karma. In a place as spiritual as South Africa, you don't run around shrieking to the CBS cameras:  "I am not losing to the old folks. I look at them as sacrificial lambs."

Oh, and for future reference, you also stop to check on folks who have been in an obviously scary car wreck. Karma, it does count for something, you'll see.

Anyway, last nights episode was two parts, and there obviously isn't much we can say about 14 beds in a desert, thus we will concentrate on South African digs.

Our choice? Ten Bompas Hotel, of course. No, it is really no where near Nelson Mandela's birthplace, however, the property is a cool boutique hotel located in Johannesburg, between downtown and the business districts of Santon and Rosebank in South Africa.

There are only ten suites here, but hey, there are only six teams left, so capacity shouldn't be an issues.

More Post Jump...

Each suite is designed by a different designer, in different styles, from African tribal to haute couture. The rooms come equipped with either a patio or a balcony, a fireplace, and guests get a written weather report each evening. Nice touch.

Oh, if you go--check out the hotel restaurant bathrooms--with TVs beneath glass flooring and toilet seats embedded with colorful toy lizards and spiders.
