Cheryl

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean, the bed comfy.The room was not expensive. The staff did not seem friendly and the service was grudging. This is apart from the manager who was very friendly. The food at the bar was average, the chips were cold and hard. It is not possible to sit out by the pool as we hoped as the metal lounge chairs were old and covered in dirt and leaves. The few cushions were dirty and damp.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The venue was okay, and the staff were great — friendly and tried their best to be accommodating. However, some policies were not clearly communicated at the time of booking, which caused unnecessary frustration at check-in. For instance, we were not informed about restrictions on bringing alcohol into the rooms or the number of guests allowed per room. Additionally, the listing on Expedia stated that breakfast was included, but upon arrival, we were told that no breakfast was provided. Better transparency around policies and inclusions would have made for a smoother experience.

Liked: Room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The bed was comfortable and the surroundings were very nice, which gave a good first impression. The pool was fine, though it could definitely have been cleaner. Unfortunately, the room itself felt quite dated and the bathroom was not very clean, which took away from the overall comfort. The biggest disappointment came on our checkout day when there was no water at all, making it impossible to shower or even wash up. We had paid extra for a late checkout, but couldn’t use it because of the water issue. The staff were friendly and apologetic, and we were promised an email with a credit note — but we never received it. With a bit of maintenance, better cleaning, and improved communication, this hotel could be so much better. It has potential, but as it stands, it was a frustrating experience overall.

We booked with hotels.com. And our booking included a FREE breakfast buffet. One of the reasons we changed from the kingdom we were told by the management the problem was with hotels.com. I tried at the time to complain to you but your online rep just cut me off. This needs to be sorted asap. Or it will reflect badly on both hotel and yourselfs

A place to Relax and enjoy!!!

very nice surprise, a lot of history to the place especially if you are into the anglo boer war, Paul Kruger etc. Met the owner, Robert Forsyth, very nice and friendly person, full of knowledge about South African History. The room we were in was very spacious, it also included a sizeable bathtub. There are 60 something rooms in the lodge but they appear to be spread out as I only saw maybe a dozen which made the place very private. I would highly recommend Kedar lodge if you are don't want the hustle and bustle of Sun City (20 min away) and want to just chill and maybe take one of their history tours of the farm/lodge

Horrible hotel. To avoid at all price!

This hotel was horrible. We got such a dirty room full of mosquitoes that we could not accept to stay and we had to drive back to Johannesburg with our 1-month old baby. That was a really unpleasant experience. The staff and management would not admit anything was wrong with the room and, of course they refused to refund the 4 nights we had paid for upfront. That's just unacceptable and shameful. I strongly recommend to avoid this hotel at all price! There are so many other nice options next to the Pilanesberg (starting with Sun City hotels), there is no reason to subsidize awful places such as Kedar Heritage Lodge.

Excellent breakfast bar and dinner variety and service, comfortable beds, well replenished rooms. beautiful grounds, good staff, friendly and helpful. Only upset was that it took 45 minutes to check in after 6 hours of travelling as Supervisor was no where to be found, with a confirmed call 3 days before of exact check-in time.

How to spoil a short break.

Took involuntary cold showers on the night of arrival. Plumber could not get the geyser going. Drain clogged so water up to ankle high towards the end. Had to wait for a room to be refreshed in the morning before decent ablutions.

Für Geschichtsinteressierte

Zufallsbuchung, die ich nicht bereut habe. Wirklich abgefahrenes Hotel mit Militaria in allen Ecken, für Geschichtsfreaks, die sich für die Anglo-Burischen Auseinandersetzungen interessieren. Daneben Denkmale für so unterschiedliche Leute wie Ghandi, Cecil Rhodes und Sol Plaatje. Paul Krugers Farmhaus auf dem Gelände. Meine Befürchtung, auf ideologisch beinharte Buren oder Kriegsbegeisterte Mitmenschen zu treffen traf nicht zu. Sehr gemischtes, lockeres Publikum. Nur 30 Minuten zum Pilanesberg-Nationalpark: Preiswert und gut wohnen und trotzdem nahe am Park. Die Zimmer liegen verteilt auf angenehm schattigem Gelände. Gute EZ-Konditionen

I stayed at this original hotel/lodge after visiting Pilanesberg National Park. The historical decor and statues were quite a surprise. The room was comfortable and morning breakfast was great. The staff were friendly. The only downside is that the front desk double invoiced in addition to the prepaid Hotels.com fee - be careful.
