Worthwhile. The lodge is quite difficult to get to because of the very poor condition of the roads. Once there, however, the lodge itself is comfortable and set in a tranquil environment right next to the river. The staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. We visited the small research centre on the property and found it very informative. We were based here because we wanted to visit Mapungubwe - but this again involves a fairly lengthy drive on very poor roads.

Not for me. Some of the rooms don't have air conditioning (average temperature was 44 degrees Celsius). Being the only guests at the lodge, we were given a free upgrade to a room that had air conditioning. The rooms do not have a TV or mini fridge. The bed was nice. There are no restaurants or shops nearby, and units are not equipped for self-catering, so you are fully dependent on their restaurant while there. We were not given any menus from their restaurant but were just basically asked which protein we would prefer. The rest was left to their imagination. The pricing for the dinner meal seemed excessive for what we received. We were booked for two nights but only stayed one (not refundable). They had impressive reviews in the guest book, so maybe I'm just petty. I guess it was just not for me.

Okay. Misleading information from website. Very poor WiFi only around reception. No satellite TV. No activities available which was advertised. Fortunately for us staff and food was top class.

Nice Bosveld getaway Great to just get away from daily routine and sit by the river with a glass of wine and wait for delicious food! Have fun!

Lekker Bosveld-wegbreek Heerlik om net weg te kom van daaglikse roetine en langs die rivier te sit met 'n glas wyn en wag vir heerlike kos! Baie geniet!

Staff very helpful and friendly and location is breathtakingly beautiful. Luxury unit overlooking water with goats and great ambience in the evening. Can definitely recommend!

Personeel baie behulpsaam en vriendelik en ligging is asemrowend mooi. Luukse eenheid wat uitkyk oor water met bokkies en wonderlike ambience in die aand. Kan definitief aanbeveel!

Located in a very beautiful place, on the river bank. Very well located, with luxury accommodation that gives you the African feel. Gardens are very well maintained.

Op 'n baie mooi plek geleë, op die rivieroewer. Baie goed geleë, met luukse verblyf wat jou die Afrika gevoel gee. Tuine is baie goed versorg.

Not as expected. I booked and paid for 2 people, but then there was the problem that my companion couldn't go with me anymore. The staff didn't offer to halve my R1800 deposit or credit my since only 1 person ended up staying. I don't expected a refund, but would've appreciated the offer to halve the deposit. Courtesy lacking. The accommodation wasn't what I expected for the price charged. Accommodation in other provinces at this price is more luxurious.

Nie soos verwag. Ek het onmiddellik betaal vir verblyf vir 2 persone met my bespreking. Daar was egter 'n probleem en kon my metgesel nie meer saamkom nie. Personeel het geensins aangebied die deposito van R1800.00 te halveer en my te krediteer omdat daar uiteindelik slegs een persoon oorgebly het nie. Ek verwag nie 'n terugbetaling nie, maar sou 'n aanbod om terugbetaling van helfte van die deposito waardeer word. "Courtesy" ontbreek. Die verblyf by Mogalakwena River Lodge was nie wat ek verwag het vir die bedrag wat betaal is nie. Verblyf in ander provinsies vir hierdie prys is meer luuks en afgerond.

Dear Mr. Black Thank you very much for your feedback and I am very sorry to hear that your experience at Mogalakwena River Lodge was not up to expectations. On the Travelground/nightbridge booking website it is indicated that our charges are per room and not per person and that they include dinner and breakfast. We would like to offer you a complimentary 2 night stay. Friendly greeting Isabella Williams (nee Coetsee)

Geagte Mnr. Swart Baie dankie vir u terugvoer en ek is baie jammer om te verneem dat u ervaring by Mogalakwena River Lodge nie bo verwagting was nie. Op die Travelground/nightbridge besprekingswebwerf word aangedui dat ons kostes per kamer is en nie per persoon nie en dat dit aandete en ontbyt insluit. Ons sal graag vir u 'n komplimentere 2 nag verblyf wil aanbied. Vriendelike groete Isabella Williams (nee Coetsee)
