The new owners are very nice and helpful. Food was great, and the views are amazing!
Wish we could have had more time there but we only had one night

Excellent rooms, food, and great service.
Posted 27 Apr 2021 on HotelsStayed at Kings Waldon 25/26th April 2021.
The stay was excellent, the room spacious and well appointed, the food home cooked, well presented and very tasty.
The service was excellent and owner very friendly and helpful in suggesting places to go in the area. Lovely walks in gardens.
Would definitely recommend it as an upmarket place to stay.

Beautiful Setting, but little else.
Posted 28 May 2018 on HotelsNot worth the money, a very expensive stay and the hotel needs lots of TLC. It is quite obvious who ever manages the Hotel is not very interested in it.
Breakfast was disappointing, no normal bread only a microwave "bread basket"!!!

A place I would like to visit often
Posted 2 Feb 2018 on HotelsThe history, the garden, the service, the food, local knowledge of staff, standard of the room are all outstanding. Lizzie the chef is exceptional.

Romantic getaway on a stunning hilltop
Posted 19 Nov 2017 on HotelsAn amazing lodge perched on top of the mountain with a stunning view over Tzaneen. The rooms are huge with a very confortable king sized bed and 4 kinds of pillows. There is also a fireplace in each room and it just adds that extra touch for a romantic getaway. Bathrooms have both a tub and a big shower and water pressure is great.
But the best part is the food, prepared with only the freshest ingredients and a lot of loving care.
There is also a pool but it's the gardens with little ponds and all kinds of trees and flowers that make this place special.
It is situated about 1/2 way between Punda Maria (Kruger north gate) and JNB so perfect for a stopover before and /or after a safari

A relaxing and peaceful overnight stop.
Posted 2 May 2017
Pros: Staff, room and dining
Cons: Had asked for some "special" recognition/treatment for our anniversary, but it seems that this opportunity was largely overlooked.
Location: We did not explore extensively, drove the full length of the Agatha Road and stopped in at one or two of the tourist destinations along the way.
Peaceful, well prepared and classically modern clean rooms with huge bathroom. Nice hot shower and bedroom very spacious with lovely outlook to the beautiful gardens, pool and water features. Ideal to get to reading that book that you have wanted to get into! Staff were exceptionally helpful and professional. Dining was good with a set 4 course dinner and a elegant and hearty breakfast seated outside, overlooking the valley, trees and generally stunning scenery. Pre-dinner drinks around the fire was pleasant. Manager was highly informative and passionate about his menu and keen to ensure that everything went well. Roads are good up to the tar off-ramp and adequate, albeit in the rain a little muddy, to the lodge. Well positioned to explore Tzaneen and surrounds. Great wedding venue.
