The hotel had a comfortable and neat room but needs renovation. It had a disgusting aroma, with the air conditioner not working, making it damp and smelly. It was not conducive for me and my child due to sinuses and insects outside.

The hotel's location is perfect, offering wonderful views and a natural feel with the mountain breeze and cool weather. The rooms, although spacious and beautiful, were not ready at check-in time, requiring an upgrade for a better view. The service was efficient and friendly, with a small hiccup of unfriendliness noted. Dining was good overall but had some delays and overpricing issues. Facilities were satisfactory.

The hotel overlooks a beautiful valley, offering a peaceful and homely atmosphere, but is in serious need of maintenance and a makeover. The service was a mix of helpfulness and untrained staff, with the location being convenient but still using an old boiler system. The dining experience varied from being an absolute feast to tasting very subpar. The facilities are in desperate need of improvements.

The hotel offers warm and comfortable rooms, although they were at the very far end of the property. The service, particularly from Makgomo at reception, was friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for resting and enjoying nature, with stunning views across the Afro-montane wet forest. The dining experience provided a wide variety of options but lacked some choices like beef sausage for non-pork eaters.

I had a mixed experience staying at this hotel. The rooms were outdated and in poor condition, but surprisingly good for a 3-star hotel. The service was a hit-or-miss, with some staff being very helpful while others seemed poorly trained. The location was peaceful and homely, but the dining experience left much to be desired.

The hotel is set in a beautiful area of Magoebaskloof, offering incredible views. The rooms are very clean, but a bit dated, providing a comfortable view of the valley. The staff are friendly and accommodating, doing their best in a location where there is no competition nearby. The dining experience, although charged in full, did not taste good. The hotel boasts beautiful facilities in a perfect location on the edge of a forest.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and offered incredible views of the valley, but they had an old smell of smoke lingering. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond to assist us, even opening late at night due to our circumstances. The location of the hotel was simply stunning, but the dining experience left something to be desired with expensive prices and subpar options. Overall, it was a memorable stay, with both highs and lows to consider.

The hotel is situated in a very beautiful area, convenient for escaping busy life, and ideal for reprogramming. The room was in need of upgrades but was spacious and good for resting. The service went the extra mile to accommodate unique requests, even though details could be better. The dining experience, though it had good varieties, did not accommodate dietary preferences. The facilities had potential but needed modernization.

The hotel offers large and very comfortable rooms despite some cold and damp smell issues. The staff were pleasant and accommodating, even under pressure of longer hours, assisting us in moving to a better room. The location is superb with great value for the money in a convenient and green area, though some bar stools were broken in the pub. The dining experience was below par and overpriced, with items running out early, notably missing coffee during load shedding. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory but with room for improvement.
