Hotel di Amajuba

The hotel is out in the middle is no where which would he fine it wasn't for the atrocious dangerous road there it's 20km from town , but actually takes you twice as long because of the road.( Come with a high ground clearance vehicle or you'll regret it). There's no network coverage for MTN at all so you'll be there and be unavailable to the outside world except for watsap via wifi. Make sure you buy all your snacks in town as there is nos shop or vending machine there. My room had vomit on the floor 303 so that means it was never cleaned. The food is way way below average which is shocking considering the fact that you are basically forced it to eat there because it's so far out and the price of R300 for dinner and only 1 desert malva pudding only. The breakfast is really bad I suggest people don't pay for it rather check out and go to spur . The hotel itself is very beautifully designed the view of the mountain is very nice, and the bed and pillows are super comfortable. There are no activities to keep you entertained, all in all I am glad I only stayed one night there because I will definitely never go back there again shame.

We planned a reunion of a group of friends who matriculated at Dundee high in 1977. Blackrock tsogosun was an excellent venue giving us the full range of services needed to cater for ppl all over South Africa and internationally for this event from accomodation for the weekend, to our breakfasts and our gala night of events at the Imbizo conference venue. The head of banqueting Andre and his team were over the top fantastic people. Going beyond their duty to cater for our halaal options and veg curries and even roti Set up of venue was so excellent. They worked with us towards such a memorable event. For the pricing their value for money exceeded all our expectations. Our friends sat till late night at the pool area, in the foyer and in the conference room they catered to our every whim and fancy. excellent well maintained property, pristine and manicured lawns...a delight to just sit and enjoy the views Hotel rooms were very well maintained and all amenities needed were there. Again value for money compared to even b and b who charge much much more in the Newcastle area Breakfast was so varied and plentiful we couldn't do justice to all that was placed on the buffet. What a great team at Blackrock from the reception staff to the housekeepers ...I can say as a top reviewer that Blackrock is s star in the tsogo flagship.

We were looking for 1 night's accommodation half way between northern Drakensburg (Witsiehoek) and southern Kruger (Nkomazi) and came across the Grey Goose Game Lodge. What caught our attention was the modern Superior Suite rooms and the opportunity to do a walking safari. We arrived around 12 noon and were given the map of the walking safari which we planned to do if our room wasn't ready. The reception staff were very nice and efficient and Flip gave us a good overview of the safari walk. We headed off with map in hand and directly opposite the car park there were a collection of Grey Geese so that was a good start (and obviously a mandatory viewing given the name of the lodge) but we didn't see any other animals for about 20 minutes after that. Then after going over a ridge, we saw a large collection of buffalo, zebra and blesbok. The path skirted around the outside of where they were gathered and we assume the animials keep away from the path as a general rule. There were large parts of the walk where the wildlife was absent and then you'd come across another cluster of animals. We saw more groups of springbok and blesbok and then the highlight... those 2 crazy lady ostriches. They were in the northwest area and as soon as the ostriches saw us they rushed away to the east. But at this point the path went east so 5 minutes later we were upon the ostriches so they then rushed across to the west. But guess where the path then winded to, yup, the west and again we were upon the ostriches. As the path zig-zagged the ostriches were always trying to rush away but only to the next point on the path. It was quite funny and by the 6th time we came across them they were too tired to rush away so we got the good photos. You'd think the ostriches would have worked out the route of the path by now but maybe rushing around is more important! After the walk we got the keys to the Superior Suite. There were building works going on around the Suite as they appear to be renovating all of the rooms. The room we were allocated was nicely decorated with a great bed and a nice bathroom. The bath had red petals all over it which was a touch over the top but a nice gesture regardless. We did run the bath but the water came out with dirt in it. We expect this is a temporary issue as the workers were working directly outside. A couple of improvements would help... the addition of a chair beside the sofa with a small coffee table. Also some form of heater in the bathroom as it was very cold on 31 August. The biggest let down was the restaurant. It really does need redecoration and looks more like an afterthought. Very uninviting and really cold. The food at dinner was basic but nice. The breakfast was also lacklustre. Very few options and the worst we had in 3 weeks in South Africa. We enjoyed our stay and especially the 2 crazy lady ostriches!
