Buffet was expensive taken into consideration that the main meat dish was grilled chicken (cheapest meat) with pork rashers. The vegetables were bland. The red velvet swiss roll (desert ) was like compressed cake and tasted old. The meats were limited and vegetables.

Footpaths and stairs from main building to rooms are dangerous, very uneven and unkept. Lighting could be better. My wife and father in law both fell and had multiple cuts and bruises. Reception check in was lovely but checkout was very uninterested. Food was very average, could be better.

Reviewed Aug 16, 2026I made a Booking via Booking.com and paid R3674.63 for a Deluxe Room for the period 12/08/2026 to 14/08/2026. I was given Room 102, which is a small room and very much different from what was advertised and reflected on Booking.com. The door in Room 102 broke and I informed reception, upon which I was allocated a Standard Room, Number 125, which are much bigger than Room 102, but still different from the Deluxe Rooms as advertised on Booking.com. It is unfair for me to pay R3674.63 for a Deluxe Room and be allocated a different room (Standard Room), which in fact costs cheaper than the Deluxe Room that I paid for. The Standard Room 125 allocated to me was way bigger than the Room 102 and I appreciate that. However, it was still way different from the Advertised Room of Booking.com and was cheaper in price compared to what I paid, namely R3674.63. Please allocate the Rooms equivalent to what has been paid for. In addition, validate the Rooms advertised against the Pricing to be paid by Customers.

My 12 year old son and I absolutely enjoyed the food - what we ordered on the ala carte menu for lunch and the breakfast was scrumptious. The room was fresh, clean and felt so 'personally' picked. Other seemingly little but things that matter like the water pressure was on point. All in all, it was a wholesome stay - would definitely visit again! Thank you Hunters Rest and your staff.
The only downer was that the heated pool 'advertised' was freezing cold - we were told the pump is being repaired

Dinner had option for a three course meal: soup to main and dessert. Our room was clean and comfortable bed with an option to require more pillows.
