Hotels in South Africa

Excellent service - beautifull location and the food was out of this world!

Personal touches with the hand written notes, the friendliness of the staff, beautiful surroundings

I cannot rate the communication from the owner highly enough. Super helpful and prompt. The location is super and the villa itself simply has all the comforts. So cosy. Lovely villa with exceptional quality. Especially the beds and pillows. Thank you 🙏

Good value for money! Excellent food! Knowledgeable guides with the biggest respect for nature! Situated at a riverbed with a lot of animals!

We spent 2 nights in Motswari Private Game Reserve and it was an unforgettable experience! Wonderful food, service, exclusivity and personal attention. Our ranger, Marius was exceptional and made every game drive and our walking safari unforgettable. His trackers, Elvis and Misha was just as amazing with their knowledge of the animals and the bush. We saw 3 of the 5 "big five" in just 1.5 days of being there, thanks to these guys. The food and service at the lodge was beyond our expectations in every way. I was a vegetarian and they catered for me with exceptional skill and charm. The food was really outstanding, thank you Glenda and team! Our other hosts, Desmond and MJ looked after every detail and made our stay wonderful. Our room was large, luxurious and comfortable. We each had a great massage too (thank you Lerato), in a space where you can watch giraffes walk by... The setting of this private lodge is amazing, you overlook a river with giraffes and elephants walking by. We even had a hyena come close to us while sitting around the camp fire - so special. This was a once in a life time experience and we hope to be back again soon!

I don't usually write reviews as I work for one of the largest travel, leisure and hotel groups in the world, but this stay was so exceptional that I must. From attentive, friendly staff that would always go above and beyond, through to a beautiful location and thoughtfully appointed rooms. I would highly reccomend this as a place to escape and relax. If you like high quality, this is definitely the place to be.

location, restaurant and rooms are lovely

The beautiful view from our family room, the wonderful breakfast, the friendliness of the staff, the garden, the location away from touristy waterfront.

The staff were helpful and knowledgeable. They provided us with useful tips and recommendations for dining and tours. The hotel is comfortable with a very pleasant ambience in a quieter part of the town. The breakfast was great and the quality of produce was high. We really enjoyed our time at Derwent House and highly recommend it as a place to stay in Capetown

The Thatch House is a beautiful property, it is like home away from home. The staff are extremely professional yet friendly. The room was stunning, with a lovely view of the lake

It was the best hotel in our South Africa trip! The hotel is small,cozy and private. The location and the garden are beautiful,especially flowers. I could just seat there for many hours and relax. The personnel is extremely helpful and friendly! I was very sad to leave this place. Thank you!

The staff went above and beyond. From the manager, to the waiters, to the service staff and the skipper (Alex). Service is world class.
