Lots of potential

Very beautiful historic property with great views & location. On negative side -large airy village units only have warmish water not hot - village units outdoor showers had waist high weeds - supper menus are 5 course set menus that are repeated & are expensive for quality - restaurant staff lacking management & training - receptionists could do hostessing/oversight at meal times & spot checks on housekeeping/condition of units and gardens to support and train staff but do not - lack of comfy outdoor seating at accom units Positive side manor house units have character, pool area is lovely with v comfy recliners, rooms are clean with new bathrooms, access to amazing outdoor activities, you feel general staff really want to please but just need more training and support to do so

Eine Location mit sehr viel Charme, tollem Ranger Clifford, freundlichsten Personal, auch wenn die Eintichtungen etwas „in die Jahre“ gekommen sind. Für die Anfahrt über die letzten 14 km unbefestigte Straße sind sicher 30 min Autofahrt einzuplanen. Diese Straße muss man auch zurück, wenn der Nationalpark besucht wird.

A major improvement is a must

Needs major improvement... extremely cold rooms without heat and building needs also to be upscaled urgently. But the major issue was at dinner when a lady (probably the owner) approached us explaining that because there was not going to be electricity the next day I had to prepay all expenses + any future expenses, which I gladly did... but there was no electricity shortage the next day, even when I asked an employee they didn’t know what was so talking about. It seems to me and please correct me if I am wrong that somehow Spanish speaking visitors are not welcome. On the other hand all the service personnel was very nice.

Old school (in the nicest sense) hotel

Historic country hotel with great ambience and wonderful staff. We arrived during a cold snap to a warm welcome. There was a lovely wood fire burning in the reception/sitting area and we were offered tea/coffee with scones immediately after checking in. We were shown to our rooms which were a 2 minute walk from the main hotel area. The rooms were very spacious and clean, with all the amenities.

Tolle Location in Verbindung mit Addo Klein-Safari

Das Zuurberg Mountain Village ist eine charmante Anlage mit einem Hauch alter Kolonialzeit. Die Zimmer sind witzig als "Safari-Loft" konzipiert, Insgesamt ist die Anlage etwas renovoerungsbedürftig. Sehr interessant ist das hoteleigene Angebot zu Ausflügen in den ADDO-Nationalpark.

Zuurberg Mountain Village stay

Excellent once again. Second visit to the Zuurberg Village Inn and enjoyed it as much as the first time. Friendly staff and excellent service. Awesome breakfast and overall good spread of food at the dinner buffet. Can perhaps consider a hearty oxtail stew or lamb curry as an optional choice with the buffet. Our room was once again spotless and the privacy excellent. Well done all staff at this facility. Much appreciated!

Muy mal ubicado, caro y sin buen servicio

El hotel está muy mal ubicado, a 17km de la ruta, subiendo a la cima de una montaña y por un camino de tierra, lleno de piedras (pinché una rueda bajando). Si bien sobre la ruta está a 1.5km de la entrada al Parque Nacional, se tarda no menos de 45 minutos en llegar. Por "error" casi me cobran un 50% más de lo que había acordado. Y en la cancelación y nuevo cobro, de alguna manera se las arreglaron para cobrarme un 10% más de todas formas. El restaurante es muy caro y nada especial, pero al estar tan lejos de cualquier otro lugar no hay más alternativa que comer ahí.

Charming Classic African Hotel

Great hotel tucked away high in the Zuurberg Pass, with awesome views of the valley and Addo Elephant NP. The hotel was built last century, and has the charm of an African Safari Lodge. The staff have been working there for years, and are great for whatever you need. Nice gardens to walk around. It's a little remote, but an excellent and wonderful get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Mountain Safari Lodge

This is a very well-run hotel that dates back 150+ years to when the treckers use to go through the Zuurburg Pass. It's a phenomenal place with great views and good proximity to Addo Elephant National Park. Breakfast and food were excellent, and the atmosphere is like a 1920's game lodge. The gardens and grounds are well-kept, and the chalets are amazingly decorated. If you do stay here, take the road from the south and not the north (the Zuurburg Pass is really for 4X4 plus vehicles). The air is 20 degrees F cooler up at this location in the mountains.

Abenteuerliche, aber gute Unterkunft

Die Unterkunft ist gut, nur der Weg zur Unterkunft sollte mit einem 4wd Fahrzeug befahren werden. Vorallem wenn man am nächsten Tag Richtung Cradock fahren möchte. Wir hatten einen VW Polo und waren sehr froh als wir wieder auf einer geteerten Straße ankamen nach ca 1,5 Stunden! Die Unterkunft ist bei Nacht auch sehr schwer zu finden. Die Zimmer sind super ausgestattet, das Essen war gut und das Personal sehr freundlich. Es bietet eine gemütliche Atmosphäre, da man abends an der Bar oder vor dem Kamin sitzen kann. Das Hotel zu erreichen und dort eine Nacht zu verbringen ist auf jeden Fall ein Abenteur und lohnt sich!

Entspannung und Natur Pur

Super tolle Lage. Das Hotel/Lodge liegt auf dem Zuurberg Mountain welches man über eine 16 KM lange Schotterpiste erlangt. Man hat einen tollen Blick über die üppig grün gewachsene Buschlandschaft. Die Besitzer und die Angestellten waren sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Sie haben Ideen für diverse Freizeitaktivitäten (Game drive , Reiten, Wandern usw….) vorgeschlagen und organisiert . Als unsere Tochter mit Fieber erkrankte wurde sie von allen Seiten bemuttert. Ein Super Service. Die Zimmer /Chalets sind sauber, toll eingerichtet, und haben ein tolles Bad mit Blick in die afrikanische Landschaft.
