    the second night was better because they had given more fire wood so did not freeze from early hours in the winter morning

    Could provide fire wood for people not used to the cold. Was unpleasant when the fire wood ran out. I woke up at 3 am freezing but

    While the area is not the best in Johannesburg, it is fairly 'central' to the city, the Eastern suburbs and close to the N3 so it is easy to get around from there. Every effort was made by the Manageress and her staff to make our stay as easy and comfortable as possible. Breakfast selection was good (note it is Halaal only), and they have lots of facilities. Also very resonable.

    They could have supplied more firewood the first night as I woke up freezing at 4am as the fire was out in the fireplace and can have a place to sit and eat everything else was great. Would have been nice if horse riding and archey lessons were available instead of just the rides and facilities

    I liked the animal farm and the spa.

    Since most guests use the hotel to stay for attending functions at the property the rooms should be fitted with a dressing table for getting ready for these functions I find this highly odd that there are no dresser tables in the rooms with hair dryers etc

    It's a very good location and good facilities and good breakfast

    The room was quite cold, and there's a fireplace. However, staff do not offer the facility to start the fire for you, which we would have liked.

    The room was big and spacious and we loved the outdoor shower. Really enjoyed the glamping experience!

    A large room with two single beds. I NEVER slept on a single bed ever before. Unfortunately, This was the only option available. The bath room seriously requires an extractor fan as the whole room becomes moist with a hot shower. The window cannot be left open as it becomes an open view from outside. Noise seems to be a problem in this new block as it travels through the walls and becomes a nuisance especially with the interleading doors. Unfortunately I had to complain every night as there was a family with little children next door.

    Breakfast was excellent, the variety was good, the daily variation was super. Congrats to the cook and waiters.

    I didn't like that the beds were very hard. The amenities were not fully operational - as we were told the instructors won't come out for one person. The staff at the restaurant were not friendly and they were very disorganized during breakfast. The buffet wasn't completely set up at the stipulated time and they were arranging the tables while eating for all their reservations. The spa did not offer snacks... they just wanted you to do treatment and leave.

    I liked that all the food on the premise was halaal. The indoor pool was very clean and vibey. The gym was massive and well equipped. The rooms were clean but small. Yusuf was very helpful. Parking was close and secure. The lady at the spa who did the massage and facial was phenomenal.

    My family and I recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible hotel, and can confidently say it exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, the service was absolutely superb. Every staff member we encountered was warm, welcoming, and went out of their way to ensure we felt completely comfortable and cared for throughout our stay. The cleanliness of the entire property was impeccable—everything from the lobby to the rooms to the spa was spotless and beautifully maintained. It’s clear that the team here takes great pride in keeping the environment pristine and inviting. What really made the experience unforgettable, though, were the amazing amenities available. Whether it was the serene pool area, the animals, the multiple sports provided or the luxurious spa, there was always something special to enjoy. Every detail felt thoughtfully designed to promote relaxation and indulgence. And the food—wow! Every meal we had was absolutely delicious, with a variety of options that catered to different tastes and dietary needs. From the gourmet breakfast spread to the beautifully presented dinners, dining at the hotel's restaurant was an experience of its own. This hotel truly offers a incredible experience in every sense. We left feeling refreshed, impressed, and already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a luxurious and flawlessly executed getaway.
