Beautiful, clean lines, comfortable—just great
Loved this small place along the river. Great rooms overlooking the river with big deck and super room. A perfect place to relax and enjoy the beautiful river.

Nice Hotel Overlooking The Plett River
We only stayed at Plett River Lodge one night, but it was very nice. Rooms were very large and comfortable. The deck area was beautiful and had lots of outdoor furniture so you could enjoy your time outside as well. Unfortunately the wifi hardly worked in the rooms, but you could go to the common area to get it, so we were fully without it.

Quiet getaway from busy Plett.
Lovely spot. Excellent restaurant too. (Open for breakfast and lunch and closed Monday). Comfortable large room. Good bed and shower. Quiet. Lovely riverside views. Only minor issue was weak wifi in room but fine in reception area. Very nice staff.

Maria and Linah were wonderful. The place itself was looking rather tired and in need of maintenance. Rooms were comfortable and large.

So magical
This place is absolutely stunning, it's so brilliant, particularly for that price. Maria met us as we arrived who was very lovely. Loved it!

The family room was great for us - nice and big. Spare room for our toddler. The staff ensured our heater was on and electric blankets for when we came home from a chilly dinner. The on site restaurant was really good and so nice to have a play area on site for our little one. The view was stunning!

Quaint and right on the river
Room lovely and spacious with very comfortable king size bed. Sitting on the deck right over the Bitou river was lovely. Only drawback was the continuous highway noise.

gut und günstig
Preis/Leistung stimmt, schade haben die Zimmer keinen Kühlschrank bzw. Getränkeangebot. Für kurzzeit-Aufenthalt absolut zu empfehlen. Es empfiehlt sich das Frühstück im anliegenden Restaurant zu nehmen.

Hotel Abandonado.
Fiquei triste...Esperei 45 minutos na recepção SEM NINGUÉM. Após esse tempo chegou uma funcionária que queria me cobrar 1.100 ZAR somente para que a minha filha entrasse no quarto e esperasse a chegada de sua prima...pois eles iriam ficar em outro hotel...ABSURDO. Logo após esse incômodo fui para outro hotel e estou esperando o ressarcimento do valor pago para o HOTÉIS. COM

am Wasser, ruhig und freundlich
Vom Zimmer und der Terrasse aus geniesst man den Blick übers Wasser. Der Parkplatz ist vor dem Hotel, Frühstücken kann man gleich im Restaurant daneben (separate Rechnung) Bei Ebbe kann es vorkommen, dass es in der Umgebung nach Fisch stinkt. Sehr freundliches Personal Geräumige Zimmer mit Dusche und Badewanne

Idyllische Lage mit tollem Ausblick
Der Ausblick von der Terasse auf das Flussdelta ist super schön und die Terasse ist auch genau so gestaltet, dass sie wahrlich dazu einlädt diese Aussicht auch in tollen Ambiente genießen zu können. Allein die Mücken können hier und da das Vergnügen trüben, aber auch deren Aufkommen hält sich eigentlich noch in Grenzen. Wir hatten ein 4 Bett-Apartment mit einem extra Schlafzimmer, welches relativ klein ausfällt, aber angemessen ist und einen großen Bereich, in dem sich ein mit Mückennetz geschütztes Doppelbett sowie ein Sofa befindet- Der Fernseher ist dabei etwas unpraktisch in weiteren Abstand von Bett und Sofa entfernt angebracht. Auch geht das Schlaf-/Wohnzimmer direkt in den Bad-Dusch-Bereich über, was evt. Geschmacksache ist. Nur Toilette ist mit Tür abgetrennt. Auch fehlt ein Kühlschrank. Das Personal ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit gewesen und auch das nebenan befindliche Restaurant (montags und abends i.d.R. geschlossen) ist sehr empfehlenswert.
