Warm, inviting, clean and will camp here again.
Amhitheatre Backpackers Lodge has a beautiful view of the Drakensberg. The receptionist was very inviting and friendly upon our arrival. The kitchen was spotless and dishcloths pure white. The lady who keeps it so neat and clean definitely deserves a Bells. We did not feel unsafe for one moment. Children went for a walk, played table tennis and sauna. Our two dogs ran around the world on the green grass. Nice!

Pictures do not reflect how cute the lodge really is.
The Backpackers Lodge's interior decoration is very creative. Around every corner there is something interesting to see. It is located in a beautiful, peaceful environment. However, the road to the lodge is not pleasant with the road falling away in a few places. On arrival we were warned that the lounge area/bar can get noisy especially on weekends, but that we are welcome to tell them if it bothers them and they will move us to another room. The lodge is very accommodating and really went out of their way to make our weekend as pleasant as possible.

One night's overnight stay - perfect overnight stop for motorcycle tourers.
Real genuine backpackers. Everything was as I expected. Had fun sitting around the fire and chatting with Americans, Swedes, Dutch and Brits.

It's an overnight backpackers lodge, nothing fancy.
The place is no longer in the condition as in the photos. Food is very expensive, but it was very tasty.

We had more expectations about the place and were disappointed.
I booked the place through the website. A very last minute change of plan happened and my mother then came along. I tried to get hold of the website, but there was something wrong with our mobile networks. I contact the place myself, explain everything and the woman says we have to pay them the difference. We arrive at the place no gates or fences. The people are not very friendly at the reception, I said that I have to pay extra for my mother and they then asked for a ridiculous fee and did not even give us a bigger room with an extra bed. Their excuse was that the fault lay with the website with their prices. Actually what they are saying is that the website asked us too little. We then get to our unit, the plants from outside are growing into the roof. The door cannot be locked from the inside. The bathroom door cannot close. The place was also not properly cleaned. I would not recommend the place. Not value for money at all and they treat their customers unfairly.

Low point of our accommodation.
Our stay at Amphitheater backpackers was unfortunately the low point of our 2 week family holiday. As a family we have already stayed with a few backpackers and were prepared for a bit more basic accommodation and e.g. noisier than most of our other accommodation places. However, we are now convinced that backpackers accommodation may only work for us for 1 night's quick sleepover, but certainly not for 3 days of family visits.

We didn't stay there. I found other accommodation.
The place looks nothing like it is advertised. There was no one in reception. I had to ask other guests if there was anyone here who could help me. Bitterly disappointed.
