Comedian reveals favourite hotel
Comedian Frank Skinner has revealed that the best hotel he has ever stayed in is Tsala Treetops in South Africa.
In an interview with the Telegraph, the famous stand-up claimed he loved staying in the jungle residence in which all the rooms are treehouses and showers are outside in the wild.
"I always thought living the jungle life was fabulous," he remarked. "It's the closest I'll ever get to it. I was showering outside and hearing monkeys chattering above me."
The worst place he has ever stayed is the Las Vegas Hilton, which he said was "incredibly antiseptic".
He suggested he was looking forward to visiting the hotel because Elvis Presley performed there several times, but he found it disappointing.
Approximately 460,000 Brits visit South Africa every year, according to Statistics South Africa.
The Foreign & Commonwealth Office recommends that visitors purchase comprehensive travel insurance before heading to the country and warns that there are many fatal accidents on South Africa's roads every year.
