Goeie admin, professionele diens, skoon, netjies, ontbyt heerlik.

Ons was aangenaam verras deur die mooi plek met professionele, dog vriendelike personeel. Sal maklik vir 'n hele naweek net gaan rus daar! Alles was 10/10.

Good admin, professional service, clean, tidy, delicious breakfast.

We were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful place with professional, yet friendly staff. Would easily just go and rest there for a whole weekend! Everything was 10/10.

Absoluut amazing.

Ons het vreeslik lekker gekuier. Almal was baie vriendelik en so behulpsaam. Ons het nie geskroom om vir enige iets te vra nie en niks was te veel of eers onmoontlik vir Gabbata Lodge se mense nie. Baie gasvry. Ons sal enige tyd weer teruggaan.

Absolutely amazing.

We had a great time. Everyone was very friendly and so helpful. We did not hesitate to ask for anything and nothing was too much or even impossible for Gabbata Lodge's people. Very hospitable. We would go back again anytime.

The service was incredibly cute, the food was also delicious.

There were only a few things that bothered me, there was no DSTV decoder in the room at all, we should have asked for it first, I was actually hoping I would get a room with a fridge but I didn't. The room did not look at all like the 1 we booked, so we were a bit disappointed. Also the toilet wouldn't flush so we had to open the toilet every time to do it. But other than that we can't complain, it was nice to get away from the city.

Lekker geëet. Net warm gekry. Sal 'n lugverkoeler voorstel. Daar was ongelukkig net 'n waaier.

Mens kan sien deur die beveiliging wat aangebring is, dat hulle al vele kere probeer inbreek. Dit het my 'n bietjie onrustig laat voel en die mat het vir my bietjie nie lekker geruik nie.

Eat well. Just got warm. Would suggest an air cooler. Unfortunately there was only a fan.

One can see by the security that has been installed, that they have tried to break in many times. It made me feel a little uneasy and the carpet didn't smell good to me.

Gabbata Lodge 's response

Middag Janine

Eerstens dankie vir die terugvoer ons waardeer altyd opbouende kritiek.
Ons sal beslis die Chef's laat weet dat julle die kos geniet het.
Ons is in die proses om lugverkoelers te installeer, dis net moeilik op die stadium met Eskom se onbetroubare toevoer.
Dis nie dat hier by ons ingebreek word nie, verlede jaar was daar enkele voorvalle in die omgewing en daarom het ons dit goed gedink om ekstra beveiliging in al ons eenhede aan te bring. Ons het al by verskeie van ons vorige kliente gehoor dat dit hulle inteendeel laat baie veiliger voel.

Ons hoop om julle nie te min sommer gou weer te ontvang by ons.

Groete

Fantasties!

Vanaf ons by Gabbata aangekom het tot ons uit geboek het, het ons net die beste diens ontvang. Beste kos en waarde vir geld. Die personeel was ook fantasties. Van oggend tot aand vriendelik en altyd 'n glimlag op hul gesig. Ons gaan definitief weer plan maak om daar te gaan kuier. My ondervinding met Babbata van begin to einde was die beste ooit!

Fantastic!

From the moment we arrived at Gabbata until we checked out, we received nothing but the best service. Best food and value for money. The staff were also fantastic. Friendly from morning to night and always a smile on their face. We will definitely plan to visit there again. My experience with Babbata from start to finish was the best ever!

Skoon en gerieflik.

Was regtig 'n baie lekker naby genoeg wegbreek, met die mees fantastiese restaurant! Al wat kan verbeter is die privaatheid tussen selfsorg-eenhede nr's 17 en 18. Dit kan lekker werk as jy bekendes is maar dis too close for comfort as vreemdelinge. Sal vir seker weer daar gaan kuier maar die keer in 'n nie-selfsorg-eenheid.

Clean and comfortable.

Was a really nice close enough getaway, with the most fantastic restaurant! All that can be improved is the privacy between self-catering units nos 17 and 18. It can work well if you are famous but it is too close for comfort as strangers. Will definitely visit again but this time in a non-self-catering unit.

Heerlike wegbreek nie ver uit Pretoria, maar ver genoeg om die rustigheid van die natuur te ervaar.

Baie beïndruk met Gabbata Lodge. Personeel was baie vriendelik en alles was pragtig skoon.

Not what I would choose but was there for a wedding.

The curtains look old and dirty. Some of the electrical outlets and lights did not work.

It was lovely accommodation. The restaurant could definitely improve its variety and quality, but we both enjoyed the food.

Great stay! Rooms were a little cold, but the staff were friendly and everything was neat and tidy.

Teleurstellend. Onveilig gevoel. Swak diens.

Ek was die enigste gas in die hele lodge met geen personeel aan diens of eers bereikbaar per foon nie. Ek moes betaal vir ontbyt wat ek nie kon eet nie, want hul bedien dit baie later as wat ek kon bly en niemand van die lodge het my alternatief gebied nie. Hul het bloot hul skouers opgehaal en gesê die prys sluit ontbyt in ongeag of jy dit eet of nie. Hierdie swak diens laat 'n wrang smaak, want die plek self is baie mooi, netjies en in 'n mooi area geleë.

Disappointing. Feeling unsafe. Poor service.

I was the only guest in the entire lodge with no staff on duty or even reachable by phone. I had to pay for breakfast that I couldn't eat because they served it much later than I could stay and no one from the lodge offered me an alternative. They simply shrugged and said the price includes breakfast whether you eat it or not. This poor service leaves a bitter taste, because the place itself is very nice, tidy and located in a nice area.

Was vriendelik ontvang en het die diere/ wild geniet. Gevoel soos die bosveld.

Kamer was pragtig. Die bokke was 'n pluspunt; amper gedink ons was in die bosveld. Die kos en mense was goed. Die diens uitstekend.

Was kindly received and enjoyed the animals/wildlife. Feeling like the woodland.

Room was beautiful. The goats were a plus; almost thought we were in the forest. The food and people were good. The service excellent.
