Make sure that you know which room you have booked
I booked what I thought was a Safari tent room, but in actuality it was a “2 person tent”. My reservation clearly stated “tent but I had just assumed that it was the Safari tent room. Looking 5rough the pictures on the site of the location a “2 person tent” is NOT pictured. I asked for an upgrade and I paid an additional 380 Rand for a room. This mean the cost to me was 890 Rand per night as opposed to 700 Rand had I booked online. There was also an issue with the WiFi at the location. It was spotty at best and only available in the lobby. I was able to get online 1 day but only for about 2 hours. When I checked in the paper with the password info asked that you not stream. No where in their hotels.com location description state this issue. The Staff was very courteous and the breakfast was outstanding. I come to Hazyview yearly but will stay elsewhere next time.

It would be helpful if the Expedia listing explained that a "tent room" is actually a dome tent with 2 mattresses (no electricity). Good thing my wife and I have a sense of humour and it was only one night! Very nice staff and the safari with Michael was excellent and the best price we found.

Expected much more when you look at the photo's
Battling to get hold of the facility telepathically. My Credit card was debited in advance when I chose the option to pay at the facility. The chalet that we booked showed a sitting area but we only have beds, no table or any chairs. We were given a smaller room, double room with a very uncomfortable bunk beds although we booked and paid for a Quadruple room. The photo's are incorrect and outdated. The resturant and reception area looks totally different an the resturant have uncomfortable "camping" / " boma" chairs. The property claims to be wheelchair accessible but the path has small stairs and is very uneven. You cannot pull a suitcase with wheels on the leaves and gravel at the parking area, so definately not a wheelchair. There is also a stair at the reception door that leads to the resturant. Descriptions regarding the property definitely needs updating. Check in time is 14h00 but when we arrived at 16h30, we still had to wait about 30 minutes after check in for the key to be brought to reception. No drinks were offered while you wait or upon arrival. We were not informed about the snackbar or deli and did not see it. You would need to drive to the shopping centre for takeout if you don't want to eat in the resturant. There is free parking but they neglect to say it is not close to your chalet or undercover. The inside of the chalet requires attention. New pillows required, toilet seat didn't fit the toilet.

This hotel is nothing like the desciption. The reception, kitchen and diningroom burnt down in April. We had to eat outside in a tent. The food was absolutely awful. The position of the hotel is fair but not on a very nice area. The rooms were clean, but very dark and no way could we open the windows. No insect ot monkey proofing. I am so sorry I booked this place. Staff were very kind and helpful.

Be careful when selecting your rooms as we booked a room with twin beds and when we arrived it was a basic 2 man tent with 2 mattresses on the floor. When I queried it they advised that it was expedia that I need to talk to as their description was wrong.

The rooms do not have refrigerators, we had to throw away all the food we carried along as they got spoiled, the management team should implement baths for people like me who are having allergies against showers.The menu does not change and the food offered at the menu are for specific group of people only,it does not cater for everyone as a result we had one meal only at their dinning area.oh only their breakfast buffet does make sense n caters for all.

Kruger adventure lodge
The place is nice and quite affordable I must say, I spent 50% less than what I had budgeted for on my accomodation. Its only a few kms(8) from The Kruger National park Numbi(sp) gate. We were in luxury room 8 and it was nice, comfortable and cozy. The place is also next to the main road so u do not have to worry about getting lost especially at night or having to travel in the bushes. Keep it up and next time we come back its definetly going to be there. Please put shower mats in your showers as they are very slippery and inclined. Please enforce some measures on the reduction of noise after certain times, our last night there was quite a noisy one.
