Great place to stay in Wildernis

This is one of our favorite half-way stops on our way down to Cape Town. Wildernis is a quant little town with world-class restaurants and The Wildernis Hotel is such a great place to stay. Lovely pool, padel, tennis and mini-golf facilities. Excellent breakfasts! And very, very friendly staff.

Good value, good location, somewhat aged. Pros: Easy parking, seamless check-in, lovely staff, excellent sauna experience, delicious breakfast. Cons: A lot of stairs (not disabled friendly if you're disabled), our room was dark, the bedside lamps didn't work, a shortage of plug outlets for electronic devices, and the hotel could use a modernisation, though it is perfectly good and clean despite showing its age.

We booked an 84m2 suite with a king sized bed. It was the night before a 21km run, and sleeping well was critical. We receive two tiny adjoining rooms with a double bed. I am too tall for a double bed as my feet hang off the bottom and cannot sleep on a double, which is why we paid extra for the king bed which we did not receive.

A lovely hotel with a oul

I was quite often in Wilderness and looked at this wonderful hotel. Now I‘ve stayed here and I really enjoyed it. There is only one little - point. My bed in room no. 166 is a little bit too short for my length, but I slept really good. Friendly staff, good breakfast and a fair price = good value for the money

The rooms were a bit dated. The key cards stopped working and had to be reprogrammed every day which was annoying. My sister didn’t have hot water for 6 out of the 7 days we stayed and reception promised to resolve it but didn’t. My sister asked for her room not to be cleaned as she didn’t want her stuff being moved around but they cleaned 6 out of the 7 days even though they were reminded every day. Bit of a shame really that the promises made weren’t honoured
