The Magoebaskloof hotel restaurant used to be renowned for their excellent food. It was our favourite restaurant for lunch on route between Gauteng and Tzaneen. We visited the restaurant on Sunday,29 April 2012. The deserted parking lot should have warned us that all was not well. To start off, the coffee shop could only offer us instant coffee. The filter... More

I stayed here with my husband and my 85-year old mother -in-law from Johannesburg. While we had a few minor problems with defect light bulbs etc., my mother-in-law had to change her room because she had no hot water and the light in the bathroom couldn't get fixed. Rooms can look a bit tired depending on category with old carpets... More

Great Hotel with beautiful surroundings! It's very green en bushy. You can have a walk down to a little waterfall, i think it's an hour walk. The weather can be a little cloudy sometimes due to the mountains. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The staff was kind and friendly. Dinner was perfect and so was breakfast. We really enjoit...

We stayed at the hotel for two nights. The hotel was very comfortable, clean and roomy, but simple. The surroundings were beautiful and great for bird watching. The garden was great to walk in and relax. However, the first night, there was a power outage for most of the night. We had to clean up before going to bed in... More

During our stay in Magoebaskloof, but not at the hotel, we once again went to the hotel for dinner as during our last stay in October 2008, we enjoyed an awesome meal there while residing at the hotel. This time round we were very disappointed. The service was extremely slow and unless we called the waiter by waving our arms... More

We stayed at the Magoebaskloof Hotel for 2 nights as part of our 3 week trip to South Africa. The hotel is pleasantly situated at the top of a pass between Polokwane and Tzaneen. In summer, it must provide welcome coolness. We were there in winter and unfortunately, our stay coincided with a cold front, so we arrived in mist... More
