23 guests' feedbackOnly the water pump or something washing by the bedroom window disturbed the Karoo silence. Everything else nice, thank you.
Room was neat and clean. And that it is animal friendly is a big plus.
Very tidy, bed sleeps great, was quiet and clean. Someone who ran this lodge really had the guest's needs in mind. There was a thin blanket on the bed too which works great in the hot weather. Some of the spots don't offer that option. Then the mirror and the power points are perfect. Thank you very much.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Great service, clean with friendly service.
Positive criticism. Very weak water pressure which makes showering almost impossible. Rest is above standard.
In a self-catering room, tea, coffee, only one packet, no milk. No meals available or to order. Photo very nice, none of it received. TV not working, had to call late to fix.
Beautifully equipped for an overnight stay.
Booked self catering unit but not possible, had to use communal kitchen.
On arrival no person was on duty at reception. No one was aware of my booking. Television's image is so poor, it doesn't help to use it. No hot water in the bathroom sink. Definitely will not stay here again.
Directions to entrance are incorrect. Security guard at gate and receptionist were not wearing masks! Actual accommodation vs. detail on site borders on false advertising. Photo blanked out of free-standing unit because it is actually 2 rooms at the front with a centre entrance to a small communal lounge and one kitchen area and a shared shower and toilet. Not a good idea to share an area with complete strangers, especially with Covid-19 at its peak. Four tiny rooms are up a flight of stairs with a single bed wedged into each room. No problem to El Dorado Lodge, they booked my wife in one room and myself in another and then when you protest they want you to pay an additional fee for a double room! The receptionist, who eventually found her mask, was kind enough to move us to a double room at no extra charge. A microwave oven and two small coffee mugs are what El Dorado believe to be a self-catering unit. The room was clean but the bathroom ceiling has mould growth on it. The only good memory of El Dorado Lodge was driving out the gate to continue with our journey.
There were all the amenities one needs, such as an iron. I personally was not very comfortable with a communal fridge. I just don't trust my fellow man!
The Chalets are very neat and clean, although the problem is that you can share them with up to eight different guests. If I had known that then I would not have spent the night there. There were guests with stock cars that made noise all night and made noise with vehicles. Not all guests are so considerate of cleaning up and maintaining silence when other guests are sleeping.
The room was tidy and clean with air-conditioning. It was all a little impersonal as no dining or bar facilities were available.
The rate charged is hopelessly too much for the one bedroom place. Restaurant service poor. Bar only sells beer. Lots of noise in unit.
The staff at the reception!perfect professionals, they solved the dilemma regarding my baby. Rooms were clean and smart, how do you not serve supper or drinks but expect people not to bring food to the rooms?
When a person books for a hotel you would like to have a room to yourself and not a kettle etc. do not share with other people. The units are extremely neat, but would recommend them for a whole family and not as individuals. We were away for 18 days and stayed in 8 guest houses and this was the only one that had to share a communal kettle with others. We didn't pack gowns. My husband loves his coffee very much and every time he had to boil the kettle in his night clothes and make coffee with other people who talk a lot and make noise. Their TVs were also very loud. The staff are very friendly and understood when we explained that we were not going to spend another night there.
Great buffet breakfast served early to accommodate us.
Rooms are very neat and comfortable, especially if you only want accommodation for one night. The staff are friendly and caring.
Unlike the description the room didn't have a bath. Couldn't wait for a nice warm bath after a long day on the road but then there was just a shower - Description is as follows: Each room has a double bed and an en-suite bathroom with shower, bath, basin, and toilet. All the rooms hav private courtyards and outside showers.
Beautiful rooms, stunning detail. Nice and private with enough space.
Arrived late, slept great and left again at 05:00. Didn't really experience more, the waitress in the restaurant wasn't very friendly!
The rooms of this hotel are acceptably clean and spacious. Upon arrival Reception was not terribly helpful or friendly we were also informed that the Restaurant is only open Monday to Thursday. So we just had to see for ourselves and get ready for dinner on a Friday night I wouldn't recommend the hotel for anything other than a one-night 'Stop over'
