Don’t have any expectations add it’s a very quirky place. It won’t appeal to all but if you love down to earth people and a genuine loveliness by those working there then you are in for a treat. If you are lucky enough to have impromptu musicians get up and have a sing song in the bar then you’ve got the jackpot! I did!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Pleasant bar and excellent dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. We felt very welcome. Our unit was cosy and comfortable despite the thunderstorms on the night that we stayed. It was well equipped. The unit was big enough for us to sort out all our gear for our rest of our trip and our covered parking space was right next to us. It is close to a shopping mall with supermarket to stock up with supplies before visiting game reserves. The grounds of the lodge provided some early “birding” as we began our trip. We will return on future trips.

Guest review
Rorkes Drift B&B is ideally located. About 2km from the Rorkes Drift Battlefield and on the road to Isandlwana. We found the rooms delightful, the food delicious (we upgraded to full board) and even did Christmas lunch here. The staff are all local and were very friendly and engaging. Most of all I loved that the B&B is part of Khula Education and the Charles Aikenhead Innovation Hub and all profits go back into uplifting the local community. If you are socially minded and love sustainable non-profits, this is the place for you. Not only is the accommodation and food excellent but the cause is very worthy and I loved being able to play a small part in helping uplift this beautiful community. I would definitely choose Rorkes Drift B & B again.

In a perfect location, the amazing view overlooking the vast valley from the deck is all to yourself, where they set up the dinner for us. Each one of the meals were all very satisfying , just the right taste And not to mention, the superb Safari experience guided by experienced team, who knows it all. We saw a big herd elephants, cheetah hunting, brother lions eating their prey! This indeed luxury lodge of exquisite taste is yet cozy with very hearty hospitality.

The staff were always helpful and friendly, going the extra mile to make our stay comfortable. Catering staff were superb and Chef Owen made sure to get our requirements met in the kitchen. The quality of the food was outstanding! There were plenty of hours spent in the hot springs. We are already planning our next visit!

We loved our experience here. The staff all know our names right from the start. Nols was a brilliant guide, she knows everything! Especially where to fine the game. We saw EVERYTHING. Including a leopard which had just made a kill. And she's an avid birdwatcher! It was brilliant.

Stayed at Kwakunje Guest Lodge as it was right next door to Talana Museum. We did the tour of the Battle of Talana Hill (I only made it halfway up the hill due to my being so unfit) There was an arts and crafts at the Museum, bought a book, marmalade and honey. Lunch at Miners Rest. Just up the road at Battlefields Lodge for Dinner. Into town and I think the best Pizza I have had at Jeff's Service Station, cannot remember the actual name of the place. Took that back to the lodge and had beer and pizza under the communal area where you can braai. I loved every minute of our stay. Friday to Sunday.

there was very little that impressed me and certainly not value for money. roads to the resort are terrible with many potholes . weekend buffet was really good but a la carte for the rest of the week is mediocre with some items not available. the complete resort needs a revamp . no effort is made to entertain guests hot pools were really good but there should have been refreshments available nearby ( 300m ) to get a cooldrink.

People visit Rorkes Drift to see and walk the Zulu War battlefields, and this B & B is THE place from which to do so. A great kitchen! Breakfast included! Stunning views of the Buffalo River, and it's run by the Khula School/David Rattray Foundation that runs 20 +/- schools from Pre-K to HS, Well worth your visit!

I feel so incredibly honoured to have been the first guest to book at Hi Boutique. From the moment we arrived the friendly staff ensured that we were comfortably settled in. The rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable. the location is perfect, being so conveniently close to shopping centres and lovely eating venues. The breakfast area is also beautifully presented and has such a special ambience. I would highly reccommend Hi Boutique to anyone looking for a comfortable stylish and conveniently located place to stay.

The location of Van Reenen is a) convenient and b) a beautiful part of the world. The scenery is fantastic. The town itself could do with a good lick of paint and a rich and enthusiastic developer of historic buildings. There are a couple of very pretty house which are well looked after. Across the road from the petrol station is "The littlest Church" where we stop for breakfast. Fabulous - both the church, view and breakfast.

It is easy to get around during game drives because there are many internal roads and rugged 4x4s that you travel in. The game drives are incredible - it can get cold in the early morning but so worth it. The staff are next level excellent.
