325 guests' feedbackWe had a very nice stay.
Was delicious. Restaurant has nice food.
The staff are friendly and helpful, the accommodation was clean and comfortable, and the meals were good. I did feel that the receptionist could be more careful and professional in her work.
Cute place, slept well. Recommend to stay overnight.
Comfortable and neat.
La La Nathi is set in the most beautiful area of the Free State. The lodge is beautiful, the staff is extremely helpful and friendly, the Orchid room was comfortable, clean and convenient. I would recommend La La Nathi to all, whether it is for business, family or a quick break. The wedding venue is stunning too.
Lovely safe overnight just outside of Harrismith, people are friendly, food is good and the views are amazing!
We only stayed one night but it's a beautiful place, peaceful, will stay there again for sure. Very friendly staff.
Very, very nice stay! The chalet was lovely: clean, well equipped and comfortable. The staff were all, from the get go, so friendly and helpful. The restaurant serves delicious food at reasonable prices. Load shedding didn't affect us at all either!
We had a very nice stay.
Although the one light in the bedroom and bathroom was not working, the excellent service from the staff made up for it.
What an incredibly neat place with very professional staff. Very happy.
Very good restaurant and personal service.
It had been nice and quiet.
It was good, was happy with everything.
Harrismith is a very cold place. The air conditioner's warm function did not work and there are no electric blankets or even winter sheets on the beds. Just slept very cold. Furthermore, the staff were very nice and friendly and the meals of high quality.
Very neat place, safe and quiet. The living unit is very nicely furnished and clean.
Staff were very pleasant and went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. The restaurant and reception staff were amazing.
It was wonderfully quiet and peaceful. Nice bed with a firm mattress.
We slept well. The destination is not "self catering". The cottage has a fridge with glasses and mugs, as well as coffee and tea. There is no oven or microwave, and no cutlery or plates. We would like to have a fire closer to our rooms. There is a small braai by the pool. Just take your own wood and/or charcoal with you. The pool was very dirty and we could not swim in it. The children's play area was also overgrown.
Wonderful, it was very nice to be able to spend the night in a safe, clean and tidy place like this with all the basic facilities one needs.
Orchard Unit was beautifully clean. The air conditioning was a plus. Wonderfully peaceful and traffic didn't bother me at all. The restaurant kitchen hours may need to be confirmed upon arrival as we were almost too late to order.
Lovely place to stay. Room was comfortable, and the views are spectacular.
La La Nathi Country Guest House was comfortable, clean and reasonably priced. Easy access from the N3 highway. The food at supper and breakfast was excellent. The staff we engaged with were friendly and helpful.
Great stop for halfway to Durban with young baby.
My sister and I had a great time at La La Nathi Country Guest House. The rooms were nicely furnished and the staff friendly and helpful. The on-site restaurant is affordable and makes delicious food. We will definitely visit again.
This place far exceeds expectations. Great and absolutely recommend to anyone interested.
For years I have seen the impressive buildings when we drive to Durban. Now I got the opportunity to spend the night there. The rondavels are neat and have the necessary facilities for a lovely gathering. The restaurant's food is great!
Very nice dinner and breakfast with friendly staff.
We visit La La Nathi Country Guest House once a year when my husband runs the mountain. We stay for 2 nights. The premises are always super neat and tidy and an absolute beauty to stay at. The rooms are always neat and tidy, and the linens on the bed are fresh and crisp!
Beautiful place. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Food is excellent and tasty.
Fantastic place, clean, tidy, value for money and the food is 5 star. Just one suggestion would be to upgrade the children's play area outside.
Accommodation is great. The food is top notch. Compliments to Chef Charlie. Maybe just a suggestion to put a bottle of milk in the fridge for coffee.
Best value for money accommodation in Harrismith. Perfect place to stay if you want break up your journey.
We slept over one evening and ate at the restaurant, all were excellent. Thank you. Next time I hope to see snow.
Very nice and tidy, would have liked to have had a braai with the unit.
The rooms are clean and comfortable. Winter in Harrismith is no joke. However, a nice hot shower and an aircon that worked well, made our stay comfortable. The restaurant's food is excellent! The chicken pot pie is like ouma made it.
We stayed at La La Nathi Country Guest House on the way between Ballito and Pretoria. The rondavel is a comfortable size and very tidy. The restaurant is lovely, there was a nice log fire and the food was excellent. We had fun watching rugby in the bar area and had fun walking around the premises and our little girl enjoyed watching donkeys and ostriches. Excellent service!
The winter took its toll on the gardens, but it was still so nice to be able to go for a walk in the cold and wind and drink in the beauty of the surroundings. Thank you for friendly staff, helpful and accommodating.
Rooms were comfortable. Heaters had been switched on beforehand so that the room had a comfortable temperature on a very cold evening. There was even a hairdryer.
Units very nice clean and tidy, the location is very convenient. We will use the accommodation again.
The accommodation is well looked after and good service makes it an excellent destination on the way to and from KZN.
We slept over on the way to the North Coast with friends. The accommodation was perfect and very tidy. I read the reviews before I made the reservation and everyone "raved" about the restaurant's food and I have to agree, it was off the books. Delicious.
It's a comfortable place to sleep between Durban and Pretoria and we had a comfortable, clean and peaceful sleep over with delicious food in the evening and breakfast in the morning.
Enjoyed our overnight stay, great place, and lovely accommodation.
Will definitely come again. Delicious restaurant.
Meals are very well prepared, friendly perosneel, neat rooms and environment and the silence is definitely a big plus.
Will definitely go there again.
The environment and location is perfect. The buildings are very nice with an excellent restaurant.
Still the best we had and the cleanest, the meals fair and very well prepared, thank you, see you again soon.
Very nice ambience, family friendly and superb service. Great Location. Beautiful scenery. Everyone is very nice and makes you feel welcome especially. I would highly recommend. Very friendly management who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable.
Perfect place for a half-way recharge!
I will definitely visit them again. It was really value for money.
Been there probably 15 plus times and always come back.
We felt welcome as soon as we walked in! The staff was friendly, the food delicious!
Well located for a comfortable half way stop to the sea! Restaurant as part of their facilities also very comfortable with delicious food.
The unit we stayed in was very nice and tidy. The restaurant's food was off the books.
Good halfway point on the way to Durban or South Coast.
Beautiful area, beautiful accommodation and the people are so friendly. I would sleep there again anytime.
We only booked one night to shorten our journey back to Pretoria but it is a beautiful place for a wedding! The staff were friendly and helpful. Food is not included but can be ordered at the restaurant - it was delicious! All that can bother you is that while you are outside, you hear the highway's noise but inside the room itself where we slept, we did not hear it.
Perfectly located next to the highway. Always experience good service and the rooms are complete and very tidy. Beautiful place in winter.
We stopped at La La Nathi on the way to the sea. The accommodation was good and the food top notch. It was fun for the kids to be able to walk around and explore. There is also a swimming pool, pond and play area. The only downside is the location right next to the N3 - you can only hear the trucks passing by at night.
Slept very well.
Slept in Rondawel for 1 night on the way to the sea. There are coffee facilities, wi-fi and a shower. Very friendly staff. Thank you very much. Will stay there again.
Accommodation and food in the restaurant very good. Staff friendly and helpful. Would just love to have comfy chair and a microwave in the rondavel. Thank you, it was the ideal place to break up our trip. We will come again!
Very nice and tidy place to sleep where you feel safe. Staff are friendly and helpful. The rondavel is deliciously cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
Beautiful venue for a wedding. On the way to KZN from Gauteng, it's a perfect half-way stop right next to the main highway.
European feel, very very good home cooking with nice chapel and many rooms for weddings.
The setting and the gardens are lovely and the staff are very friendly and efficient. We enjoyed our stay and would consider stopping there again.
Great stopover place between Pretoria and Durban. Everything very neat. Carpets in rooms only need a good cleaning once. Other than that, everything is great. Staff friendly and helpful.
All problem was that we had to wait a long time to be served during meals. Staff do their best, but there is too little service at busy times.
As before, we enjoyed staying at La La Nathi.
What a lovely overnight stop for us. Well maintained, beautiful settings, friendly staff, clean accommodations and good food as well.
The restaurant's food was exceptional and affordable. We will visit again.
We always recommend La La Nathi to friends for sleepovers. Everything was neat and clean, but was very disappointed with carpet in room - it was very dirty and full of dirty marks. It needs a good cleaning!
Nice guesthouse, enjoyed the veranda. Unfortunately the traffic was disturbing our sleep.
Very nice stay for a night on the way to Ballito. Lots of space for small children to release their energy.
The noise is very bad throughout the night.
The management of the entrance is worrisome. There is no Security at the entrance. There is notice that asks you to press the reception button, but no response. I called the number provided on the gate and the Secuirty personnel directed me to jump out of the vehicle and go open the alternative gate in the dark. I think that it is too risky for potential mugging and hijackings. Wonder what happens during rainy days.
Very nice, clean and comfortable.
Very easy and close to the main road.
Restaurant food is very good, and rondavels adequately equipped for our overnight stay.
Lovely bar where we watched the Soccer WC Final. Donkeys and Ostriches for small children to enjoy. Fantastic lodging along N3.
The most beautiful view with the most beautiful gardens and cottage in which you stay. Definitely worth staying in.
Lovely place! Very neat and clean. Will definitely recommend.
The room was quite comfortable and suited our needs sufficiently. Beautifully furnished with solid furniture.
Your manager is amazing. She was always there for advice or if something was wrong. We will definitely stop there again.
We had a nice stay there.
James advised that there would be a shower, but there wasn't one. My wife had great difficulty at ablution time.
As usual, friendly service and a neat place to stay.
Second time we stayed here on our way to Newcastle. Highly recommended.
The reception was super friendly. The facilities and room were clean and very comfortable. The view is breathtaking. We will definitely go again.
Good location, only the N3's traffic noise bothers a little, but it's completely manageable.
Very friendly and helpful staff.
It was a wonderful experience.
Pleased that a caravan and car could be accommodated in a safe environment. Food is excellent at reasonable prices. This will be our halfway stop in the future.
Can highly recommend La La Nathi. From the reception, accommodation and restaurant everything was top notch.
The site is immaculately clean. The chalet is furnished with the most expensive and best sleeper furniture. The service was great and the food delicious.
This is definitely one of the best and most beautiful places we have stayed. We would recommend the hospitality and good food of La La Nathi anytime and we will definitely go back again.
It is a very nice place and very nice environment and location, I enjoyed everything, even the room service, will definitely be able to go there again.
Everything was picture perfect.
See stars.
We were pleasantly surprised. The units were neat and well furnished. We had a great meal at the restaurant. Beautiful place with excellent service and friendly staff.
Definitely recommend, will stay there again.
Near the main road. Easy access safe and comfortable and very tidy.
Great stopover to the south coast.
All facilities were nice and clean and the farm atmosphere was wonderful.
Very nice, well maintained overnight accommodation and staff are very friendly and helpful. Slept well in number 8. It's just that the braai place is not at all up to standard to use.
Neat, clean rooms. Excellent service from staff and delicious food from restaurant.
This is a beautiful place very neat the rondavel where we went home was very clean and tidy. Very practical place. Everything you need is in the living unit.
Very nice overnight destination. It's a shame it's so close to the highway. But would stay there again.
Was surprised that a generator was able to power the entire lodge during 2 load shedding sessions during our stay. Feel free to add it to the information for someone who wants to book.
The service was excellent. The room neat and breakfast next morning delicious.
Very good service and the cleanliness was really top notch. A bit noisy with the "after tears" party on arrival, but otherwise I recommend the place.
Beautiful setting, nice garden, off the main road.
Will definitely stay there again.
Particularly beautiful "venue".
Happy to spend the night here on the way to the coast, well located and only received good service.
The service was great. Food at restaurant was great. Nice clean place and well looked after. WiFi reception was a bit weak, but otherwise 100%.
Rondawel we booked was well furnished and everything we needed was there and in its place. The generator during load shedding was a plus point.
Very nice well maintained clean over night stop with delicious food.
Nice people in the restaurant and delicious breakfast.
Long time no stay in a rondavel type room. It was pleasant. N3 close to the resort, but still not disturbing.
Adventurous location. Tranquility observed.
We had a wonderful stay. It was clean, tidy and the staff friendly. It is a beautiful place.
We were very impressed with the accommodation, food and cleanliness. Overnight destination in Harrismith is guaranteed from now on La La Nathi.
We stayed in the rondavel. It was very clean and the bed was amazing. Service very well.
Excellent overnight stay on the way to the Cape. Neat and clean. Good location. Restaurant on premises. Friendly service.
What a beautiful place, right off the main road. Food, accommodation and the staff were absolutely outstanding.
Very nice place. Staff very professional and helpful.
This is the only place I will repeatedly overnight/stay when in Harrismith. The staff is professional and so friendly, the accommodation is "spotless", everything works 100%. The bed sleeps like a dream and the bedding is crisp. The shower is lovely big and the water pressure fantastic. The on-site restaurant is 5-star, yet very affordable and the food is out of the books. The grounds are neat and the pool clean. There is absolutely nothing to complain about at La La Nathi Country Guest House.
Beautiful and neat. Breakfast is awesome and so much to choose from.
Safe, well located between JHB and Durban. The dinner was very nice and is recommended.
We stayed on the way to the sea, and were terribly spoiled! It was so peaceful and there is a nice place to run for the boys! Hospitality and kindness abounded. We stayed at La la Nathi again on our way back from holiday, just because it was so nice! We will never miss him in the future!
Such a lovely surprise on arrival and perfect for a halfway stop to Johannesburg. Very neat cosy units.
Very pleasant place and people are so friendly and breakfast is great.
The rooms are beautifully decorated, welcoming and well equipped for an overnight or even longer stay. The jungle gym was a bonus and being a coffee lover, I was surprised at the amount of coffee, tea and sugar supplied. The food was amazing and the breakfast was amazing (way too much). The staff were welcoming and friendly. Will definitely stay here again!
Meters from the N3.
Overnight facilities were very convenient. Small play area to keep children busy. Rooms were wonderfully warm and clean.
We were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and comfort of the accommodation.
It was nice to stay overnight halfway through our trip.
We were surprised with the cute place. Can recommend it anytime. The environment is so peaceful and everything is neat and clean.
Neat, quiet and the restaurant serves delicious meals!
Nice overnight facilities.
Couldn't have asked for better! Excellent service with food, cleanliness. Overall a brilliant stay with friendly staff.
Very nice. Would recommend and hope to visit again soon.
Very nice stay. Reception very helpful.
Fantastic place to stop en route to Drakensberg. Clean, spacious and fantastic service.
We stayed in Thandi, we unfortunately arrived there very late due to uncontrolled circumstances, but were escorted by the security to our room. Rooms were neat and clean, the bed with fresh linen was welcoming after the long journey. The restaurant was cosy, farm feel with delicious side dishes to choose from. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast delicious and filling. I will visit and recommend La La Nathi again.
Place is great for the elderly, teenagers and toddlers. The pool is a bonus, was just a bit cold.
Very nice stay and very nice place. Friendly, very clean and tidy.
Very friendly reception on arrival and the steak was top quality delivered to the room on request. Clean neat and comfortable. Would love to spend more time there on holiday.
It was a nice relaxed atmosphere and had a nice rest before we continued our journey.
All the staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms and other buildings and gardens are beautifully maintained.
Luxury rooms are special, pleasantly surprised.
I was incredibly impressed and at home from the first moment. Welcome reception, the unit and garden impeccably tidy and well looked after. The 5-star dinner at a very reasonable price was out of the book. What a wonderful privilege to be able to spend the night so relaxed.
We had a good stay at La La Nathi. The rooms are spacious and well equipped with a tea and coffee station, a small fridge, TV, a bathroom with a bath (this was great to bath our 8 month old) and underfloor heating that made the room very cosy and warm. We were a bit disappointed in the food at the restaurant. We ordered dinner and breakfast. Breakfast was really nice; a full English breakfast, however supper was a little disappointing. We ordered Eisbein, that was served overcooked with frozen vegetables, as well as a smoked salmon salad, which was really average. Other than that the stay was great and I would definitely recommend an overnight or longer stay here.
The unit was clean and the unit was a pleasure to stay in.
I was there for one night and it was peaceful.
Good halfway mark for visitors to the Natal Coast or business travellers.
Nice place to rest if you're on a long journey. It's peaceful and one has amazing views of the mountains.
We will make La La Nathi our halfway house for the future.
Very peaceful place to stay. Teenagers could roam and explore and the free Wi-Fi was their attraction. Two year old enjoyed the pool and play park. Grandma could go to bed early.
Just a pity we couldn't use all the facilities due to Covid. Will definitely go again and hopefully have a glass of wine in the cozy bar!
The noise from the road is a small factor, but otherwise an excellent overnight paradise.
Beautiful place to stay. Neat and quiet. Beautiful gardens and very comfortable. Friendly staff and very helpful.
Would like to stay here more often, really enjoyed it!
Everything nice clean and tidy.
From the guard at the gate to the reception, everyone was very friendly. Spares no effort to be helpful to guests. Breakfast was delicious. The whole estate was beautiful.
The rondavels are very neat and the underfloor heating a plus. The steak is out of the books, tender and delicious. Compliments to the chef. If you are not used to traffic, the trucks on the N3 are going to be a problem.
Everything was clean and very tidy with underfloor heating. The WiFi worked well. The dinner was fragrantly prepared.
See stars.
Peaceful atmosphere. Had good service. Neat and completely sufficient and well-located as an overnight place.
Only failing was lack of sanitisers in bedrooms. Breakfast as extra charge was a surprise and reduced the overall value.
We only stayed overnight but the room was adequate and the dinner was delicious. We were just a little unsure about the safety as we are naturally fussy about safety. There were no burglar bars on the windows but they informed us that there was a security person on duty throughout the night.
I work in hospitality and thought the service could improve slightly however it was nothing in particular that was bad. Enjoyed the lovely venue and quick overnight stop. The food was okay. The lasagne was kinda plain and Continental breakfast was alright, too bad it wasn’t fully set up at the time the first two families were there.
Hassle free check in and the receptionist was very welcoming and friendly. Beautiful place and clean.
Best chicken pie in town.
Preferably larger space for families that are more than 4. Maybe yogurt for breakfast that is already in the fridge.
Convenient stopover between Gauteng and KZN. Comfortable accommodation, nice restaurant, delightful staff.
Very neat and clean. Friendly reception.
Too bad it's so close to the N1 which is quite busy throughout the night. However, this did not detract from a lovely sleepover.
Ideal stopover on the way to the sea. Safe and very neat.
Nice place. Nice surroundings. Bit close to the N3 (trucks don't stop rolling by). Looks like a good function venue.
Noise from the highway bothered us a little. We were in the house closest to the highway. Maybe plant clumps of bamboo to break the sound.
Rondavels just need a microwave. Other than that, everything was perfect.
Friendly reception, place is neat and clean with beautiful trees and vegetation. Food is well prepared and tasty. Service is great and staff know what to do.
Very comfortable room with the most necessary necessities to rest comfortably there. Delicious and affordable food at the restaurant.
Very clean and safe.
Beautiful place, everything was great.
Will definitely visit again and recommend friends and family to visit.
Nice stopover back from San Lameer. Perfect distance for an overnight stay if you want to break up the trip. La La Nathi is very pretty and a restful place to stop over.
I was just looking for a quick overnight stay-over to sleep and refresh in the morning. When I arrived, I felt like I should have booked a longer stay. I will definitely go back for a weekend away.
Delicious cookies with coffee in the rooms!
See stars.
A few of the nice things include the fact that there are many plugs. The website stated that no meals are available on a Sunday evening, but we could get food at the restaurant. Food was delicious. Try the Msobu (nightshade) milkshake.
Very comfortable for a stopover on the way to the coast with small children for whom the road is too long. Good service, clean and good food.
Would also just suggest putting in cutlery like a plate, knife and fork and then also a tea towel or two. Furthermore, it is very convenient.
Very friendly people and excellent food.
Clean and tidy but needs renovation.
It's the fourth time we've stayed here on our way to the south coast. The facilities are fantastically maintained, very clean and the staff fantastic. Definitely the place to stay, it's right next to the N3 just outside Harrismith.
Lovely place to stay over. Clean, great food, friendly host and well-trained staff. I will definitely stay over again when I am in the area. I would recommend some softer pillows though please. Just as an option.
The sleepover at La La Nathi exceeded all expectations. The service and food are excellent. Would highly recommend it for people who want to sleep halfway between JHB and Durban.
We were surprised by the accommodation and friendliness of the staff. The food was excellent. We had a great rest. Thank you to La La Nathi's staff. You guys are tops.
We were surprised with the friendly and helpful staff. Our unit was beautiful and super tidy. Everything is stylishly decorated and everything you need for an overnight stay. The restaurant on site is top quality and we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. I would recommend La La Nathi without hesitation.
La La Nathi exceeded our expectations. The rondavel is very nice and clean and the receptionist very friendly. It was great, thank you.
Coming from freezing Southern Free State, I loved the underfloor heating and the heater in the bathroom! Friendly, welcoming reception. What a lovely place. Will definitely overnight there again.
Friendly service, helpful and tidy.
Excellent friendly service, very clean and tidy. Very nice accommodation and delicious fresh food.
Place is beautiful and rooms nice and clean. There is space for children to run and play and the hot pool was very nice! The staff are all very friendly and helpful, would stay there again anytime!
Had a delicious dinner. Service was very good.
Our stay was perfect from the onset, the staff was very friendly and the room neatly prepared.
We would recommend La La Nathi anytime. The sandstone-built chalets are spacious and very tidy. The service is excellent and the dinner was also very tasty.
Very nice room, was very clean and neat. Will stay there again.
Would have liked a small fridge in the unit.
We were warmly received. Staff are all well trained and friendly. The room was great and the food was awesome.
One no longer get such friendly service and it's all of the staff we dealt with, keep it up La La Nathi Country Guest House and be an example to others.
We were surprised by the beautiful place, the friendliness and hospitality!
The rooms were clean and neat, staff very friendly and helpful.
We would like to use your braaier by the pool to make dinner and have a good time together. The braai area was a bit disappointing and without washing up facilities. We then decided instead to order dinner and have it delivered to our room. I asked for extra vegetables that were not on the menu. The food arrived promptly at the agreed time, extra vegetables included. The food was delicious, thank you very much for the extra effort to accommodate us.
Room was very neat and clean. Dinner and breakfast was delicious, the food was well prepared.
The guesthouse has excellent staff and a beautiful garden and located in a nice area.
We enjoyed the sleepover. Just think the rondavels can be updated a bit. The food in the restaurant was of very good quality, the breakfast was delicious, and the staff very friendly. I just want to thank Thembi, the receptionist; she is such a warm, friendly person, it was nice to work with her.
The guesthouse offers a very pleasant stay and the facilities are very good. Unfortunately, it is very close to the highway and the trucks constantly make noise. Even at night, it is very distracting and hinders your sleep.
If travelling, an ideal place to rest and stay overnight.
We have enjoyed the room and environment very much. We were disappointed in the dinner. Although there was enough food it was really not tasteful.
We were completely surprised and blown away! It is so beautiful and you immediately feel part of nature - away from the city's noise. If you drive through the Akkerbome, you can only know that you are going to have a good time. I definitely recommend it as an overnight stop if you are driving a long way. Nice underfloor heating, so the room stays warm and cozy. I will visit La La Nathi again without a doubt! Thanks also to the staff who call us in advance and confirm that we are still on our way, and then welcome us with open arms.
Good service, very neat, friendly. Bar prices just a bit expensive.
Very neat, good value for money and friendly service.
Voor een kort verblijf rond Harrismith een prima verblijf dichtbij de snelweg N3. Dit is een voordeel voor de bereikbaarheid, maar ook een nadeel omdat de snelweg goed hoorbaar is. Personeel zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk.
What a fantastic stay, room Jabulane was beautiful and 5 star! Called guest house and asked if they would open bar for WC final and it was arranged. How surprised we were that the owners also just came to watch together. Will stay there again for sure. Food was very good and prices very reasonable. Enjoyed a lot!
The only criticism is that the bedroom we had lacked a stand to put our luggage on so the suitcases had to be put on the floor! Otherwise we enjoyed our stop over.
Very beautiful environment. Neat accommodation units.
Accommodation is good and staff very friendly and helpful. Power is a problem in Harrismith. The guest house does have a generator which is in operation from 5:00 to 22:30. It was very hot on 20 December 2019 and because the power problem we couldn't use the fans - so it was uncomfortably hot during the night. The guest house (Rondawel no. 15) is very close to the main road and the traffic on the N3 never stops. Throughout the night you hear heavy vehicles passing by - it was quite disturbing.
The place has been without power for 12 days and a generator is only switched on at certain times. You watch another movie then the power is off. Understand this is a problem in town, but we as guests could have at least been notified.
Lovely room! Great amenities in the room.
Extremely friendly reception and service was excellent! Very neat accommodation and the surroundings are beautiful!
Warm welcome, good food, value for money.
See stars.
Very conveniently close to the N3, very neat and clean. Breakfast is fantastic and they had Illy coffee!
Beautiful place. Friendly reception. Will definitely recommend it. Breakfast was excellent!
We always enjoy staying here. Fantastic food.
Our experience with La La Nathi Country Guest House from the booking to the stay was absolutely wonderful. Friendly service and all queries were answered quickly and efficiently. The stay was excellent and we will stay there again.
Most friendly staff ever. Delicious meals. Spotless sleeping facilities. They definitely deserve 5 stars.
For us it was a halfway stop between Durban and Joburg. Would be a good location for day trips to the Drakensberg region too. Location is just beneath the N3 outside of Harrismith and you can hear the trucks passing by all the time. For us it was okay. Our bungalow No. 6 was spacious and well appointed. Staff was nice. Had a very good dinner at the restaurant.
We were very impressed with La La Nathi Country Guest House. I would love to stay there again. It was great value for money, the staff were so friendly, the food was delicious, the room was warm, clean and so comfortable. Loved it!
Was on the way home, so it was a overnight break, will recommend it any time.
Very cute houses. Good service. Nice surroundings and the main road was not a hindrance. Would love to go in the winter to use the underfloor heating. We were received so kindly by the receptionist. Thank you very much would recommend the place anytime.
Very comfortable for overnight stay.
Very neat place and would recommend it for an overnight stop as well as a weekend destination.
We were well received and friendly. The food was excellent and the people were very hospitable. Really enjoyed the night there, and plan to go back again, all I can complain about is the bed.
See stars.
Except for the tarmac's noise so close.
This was the second time we slept over at La La Nathi on our way to the sea and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. Thank you.
Staff were professional and very helpful. Dinner was value for money. Had a very nice stop to the coast.
Pleasant overnight stay and friendly staff.
See stars.
On our way to the South Coast we decided to spend the night there. Very tidy, good food, friendly staff and we felt very welcome. Would love to go back again.
What a wonderful place! We enjoyed it immensely. This place is incredibly beautiful and clean and everyone is helpful with any request. I'm sorry we didn't book with you longer. Will be back for sure! I would definitely recommend La La Nathi.
Would recommend it to everyone.
Beautiful place. Cold outside but warm and hearty inside.
Good value for money and well located en route to the ocean or Drakensberg Mountains.
Very nice place to stay. Rooms are spacious, clean and neat. The food and service was excellent. Friendly service. We can definitely recommend La la Nathi and would like to stay there again.
Very neat with friendly service, fresh air, was a fantastic experience! La La Nathi will see me again!
Reception very friendly at our arrival. Best food at restaurant. Service quick and friendly. Rooms very neat and contained everything we needed. The manager was very kind and showed personal interest in her guests. Would definitely suggest La La Nathi to anyone, whether it be for a stopover en route to Durban or for a week's stay.
Cosy, neat gardens, excellent household, professional reception.
What a wonderful overnight stay between Gauteng and Durban! Clean, neat, friendly, delicious food.
Very friendly and hospitable staff, enough space to park the caravan. Will definitely go back.
Friendly welcome, comfortable place to sleep, good food in a safe environment that is easily accessible means that we will go back again and again!
Clean and tidy half way overnight facilities.
La La Nathi is really a very quiet place to sleep between Pretoria and Durban. We slept in a cottage that was wonderfully private. We also ate dinner and breakfast, which was really very delicious. The bar made of sleeper wood is also something special. Will definitely be back and recommend it!
Room beautiful. Service in restaurant was lacking in certain aspects.
Although we only stayed for one night, the suite was of high quality as well as the service and breakfast. The only negative is that the guest house is a bit close to the N3 main road and heard vehicle noise throughout the night.
We were pleasantly surprised with the stay and the delicious meal we could enjoy on the same premises.
Very convenient close to the N3, for a quick stay on the way to the coast. Friendly staff and helpfull and the food was delicious. Divine dinner and breakfast was really nice with something for everyone! I'll recommend La La Nathi to others.
Convenient and nice. Clean and tidy.
Very nice neat place. Only problem is the location next to the N3. The traffic never settles down and can bother light sleepers a lot.
Well received. Room fully equipped and very clean and well maintained. Make sure the account is correct. Was helpful and called that we forgot mobile phone in room. We would love to come back again.
During our arrival it was raining and the room was overflowing. However, they immediately wiped it dry. They can certainly make a plan so that the water does not flow into the room. The shower-over-bad's floor definitely needs a good cleaning. It was not possible to use it.
Everything was excellent except for the bed. I have a back problem and the bed was too soft. Other than that no issues.
Beautiful, tranquil place to relax before continuing our journey to KZN.
Very neat, clean accommodation.
Clean, friendly staff, excellent food, clean room, didn't need anything more. We only woke up at 08:55, which says a lot. We will definitely book this place again. LekkeSlaap, your service is excellent and we will approach you again in future. Thank you very much.
Recommend better matresses - did not sleep to comfortable. But it was still a nice experience.
Lovely and warm on a cold night.
Definitely will use this as stop over between Johannesburg and Durban again.
Strikingly neat. Tranquility and a desire to be able to hang out longer. Fantastic!
Here you can relax and enjoy a delicious evening meal, sleep peacefully in silence and eat an equally delicious breakfast. Definitely a recommended stopover.
The best overnight accommodation I have ever been to. Friendly service. Always clean. High quality bed linen and towels.
From reception to departure they were friendly to us. Both rooms were beautifully decorated and met our needs. The luxury family suite was beautiful and entices you to stay longer. Thanks for lovely accommodation you guys!
Staff very friendly and helpful. Accommodation clean and tidy. Would stay there again anytime and can really recommend it. Only negative comment is the TV channels available ─ nothing worth watching.
The facilities provide everthing you need and the extra care is given to the meals and e-mailing the menu the previous day is very thoughtful.
The family room was clean and spacious and comfortable. New Year's dinner was value for money and very tasty and fragrant. Even our three children are still talking about the delicious cooking. We will definitely visit them.
Our family group had a wonderful relaxing time and experienced a wonderful night's rest.
La La Nathi was a pleasant surprise. The place is beautiful and the whole set up nice and well cared for. The staff were very helpful and friendly. It was wonderful to relax there after a tiring rest with nature and birds around us. Thank you very much La La Nathi and also LekkeSlaap for introducing us to this. We will definitely want to use their hospitality and LekkeSlaap's services again.
We were on our way to KwaZulu-Natal's South Coast and stayed over at La La Nathi just outside Harrismith. It was the third time we stayed over here and we have never been disappointed. The rooms are clean and neat and it offers all the amenities you need. You pay extra for dinner and breakfast, but we can recommend it - it's delicious! The guest house's location is very convenient, but unfortunately it's right next to the main road and you are constantly aware of the traffic.
We rode a motorbike, stayed there for 2 nights. Could easily visit other places at Drakensberge, well located, road was nice. Friendly staff, delicious food, beautiful and clean rondavel. Pool was a bit down and the grass was a bit long. Other than that just had a nice stay. Nice place for a night or two if you just want to rest.
Just missed a shower in the bathroom.
The only criticism is related to the noise from the N3.
It's the ideal overnight stop on the way to the sea, especially for older people who no longer want to travel so far in one day. The accommodation was comfortable and the meals particularly tasty and good value for money. We will definitely make a visit there again!
A place I always wanted to experience halfway between JHB and DBN next to the busy N3. Staff were friendly, the rooms and area was tidy and clean. Rooms could do with a roof fan or aircon.
The rondavels close to the road are quite noisy.
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at La La Nathi over the Christmas season. What a peaceful, beautiful place! We will definitely do it again and recommend it to everyone.
See the stars.
See stars.
Thanks to the management and staff of La La Nathi. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The service, accommodation and food is excellent and we could not have chosen a better place. Keep up the good work and continue with your warm hospitality.
Was our wedding anniversary and used La La Nathi as a sleepover. The staff were very helpful and really went out of their way with all my special requests! The food was so deliciously prepared!
Very nice stay in a beautiful environment.
The experience was amazing. The location the accommodation is great.
We always enjoy sleeping here and continuing our journey refreshed after a good night's rest and hearty breakfast! Thank you very much for hospitality and a friendly staff!
Definitely worth 5 stars! We rested well and ate deliciously. Bedtime was a great treat in a lovely room.
Nice rooms, well located, pretty good restaurant. Definitely recommend.
Very nice place to sleep over. The room is well equipped and the food was delicious! Friendly staff. Hope you get some rain soon - it's very dry!
The winter cold was tamed during our stay. Breakfast average.
Eat well, sleep well and rest well. Sitting next to a nice fireplace with coffee. The underfloor heating spoiled our feet. Easy for the whole family, perfect for winter and half way to the sea!
La La Nathi is really a beautiful place to sleep over the only complaint is the N3 which is so noisy but there is probably nothing to be done about it. Will definitely use them again
Perfect stopover for business. Just needs fans or preferably air conditioning for the summer.
We ate very well and the service was very good. I would recommend the accommodation to anyone. Overall a very nice experience! Thank you.
Will recommend La La Nathi to all our friends. We enjoyed it very much!
Very neat and clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Amazing food!
Very spacious, neat and clean rooms.
We especially liked the underfloor heating which, despite the cold, kept the room warm and cozy all the time.
