Excellent security, friendly staff, delicious breakfast.

The stay was pleasant in a lovely location, central to all other amenities. Staff were friendly and helpful, with delicious breakfast served on both days that we were there. The room was clean, but the kitched facilities in the room were somewhat outdated. Also, be warned that the climb to the upstairs room is not for the faint-hearted, or weak limbed. However, it did afford us a lovely view over the premises.

Baie aangenaam.

Die warmwatertoevoer na ons wooneenheid (Stalle nr 6) was aanvanklik foutief, maar is spoedig herstel. Die toegang van buite by die sekuriteitshek het nie gewerk nie en moes ons die personeellid aan diens skakel om hek oop te maak.

The hot water supply to our residential unit (Stalle no. 6) was initially faulty, but was soon repaired. The access from the outside at the security gate did not work and we had to call the member of staff on duty to open the gate.

Ek en my man het slegs vir een aand oornag en dit was heerlik.

Die enigste ding wat ongelukkig ons bietjie afgesit het, was dat ons vir roosblare gevra het en toe is daar net so hier en daar rose neergesit. Die lodge moet dalk eerder by hulle ekstra goedjies "rose" opsit en nie "roosblare" nie. Verder het ons geen klagtes gehad nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

My husband and I only stayed for one night and it was lovely.

The only thing that unfortunately put us off a bit was that we asked for rose petals and then roses were just put down here and there. Perhaps the lodge should add "roses" to their extras instead of "rose petals". Other than that, we had no complaints.

Tidy but not value for money.

The room decor was a bit dated and the shower was very small. Regardless, the rooms were tidy and comfortable. Excellent service in creating the booking but manager at breakfast was visibly annoyed with questions and unhelpful. A special mention to Thomas that compensated for the managers unpleasant behaviour by making us all feel welcome.

Gerieflike oornaggeriewe.

‘n Rustige atmosfeer en gerieflike kamers. Die kombuislig in die cottage se skakelaar het nie gewerk nie en ons kon nie die lig afskakel in die aand nie. Daar was ook geen skottelgoedseep of 'n lap by die wasbak in die kombuis beskikbaar nie, en kon ek nie my baba se bottels was nie. Selfs toe die skoonmakers die cottage kom diens het, het hul slegs die koffiebekers met water uitgespoel en nie behoorlik gewas nie. Die restaurant se diens was flink en beide die aandetes en die ontbyt was heerlik.

Comfortable overnight facilities.

A peaceful atmosphere and comfortable rooms. The light switch in the kitchen didn't work and we could't turn the light off in the evening. There also wasn't any dishwashing liquid or a washcloth available in the kitchen and I could't wash my baby's bottles. Even when the cleaners came to clean the cottage, they simply rinsed out the coffee mugs with water and didn't wash it properly. The restaurant service was good and the dinners and breakfast were delicious.

Beste Marie,

Dankie vir jou terugvoer. Ons waardeer dit waneer gaste die tyd neem om vir ons te laat weet waar ons ons dienste kan verbeter. Ons is ook bly om te hoor dat julle die restaurant geniet het.

Ons het ondersoek ingestel, en verstaan nie die uitdaging wat julle ervaar het met die lig in die kombuis nie. Ons het gevind dat die skakelaar wel in 'n werkende toestand is. Dit kan moontlik wees dat julle van die verkeerde skakelaar gebruik gemaak het. Om seker te maak dit gebeur nie weer nie, het ons ook nou etikette op die skakelaars gesit.

Ongelukkig was die kamer nie bespreek op 'n selfsorg basis nie, dus voorsien ons dan nie enige skoonmaakmiddels nie. Indien u gevra het, sou ons met plesier vir u skottelgoedseep verskaf het. Die personeel gebruik 'n meer omgewingsvriendelike skoonmaakmiddel in plaas van gewone skottelgoedseep. Ongeag daarvan, is dit altyd goed om terugvoer te kry om op standaard te kan bly.

Indien julle weer by ons sou oorbly, is julle meer as welkom om enige uitdagings wat julle ervaar direk met ontvangs te bespreek sodat ons dit dadelik kan regstel.

Groete,
Oudrift Riverside Lodge-bestuur

Kamers baie mooi skoon, restaurant personeel baie vriendelik. Net jammer geen respek vir kliënte se stilte nie.

Dit sou baie aangenaam gewees het, maar daar was 'n fiksheidsklas Saterdagmiddag op die grasperk reg voor ons kamer met oorverdowende musiek en skreeuende kinders wat voor ons venters verby gehardloop het. Ons het die hele oggend hard gewerk en sou baie graag die middag net wou rustig verkeer en dalk gaan stap langs die rivier. Niemand het ons voor die tyd gewaarsku dat daar so 'n groep gaan wees nie. Daar is ook geen veilige parkering nie. Geen hek wat in die aand gesluit word nie. Eiendom is heeltemal oop vir enige iemand om vrylik in te stap.

We worked hard all morning and would really like to just relax in the afternoon and maybe go for a walk along the river. No one warned us ahead of time that there would be such a group. There is also no secure parking. No gate that is locked in the evening. Property is completely open for anyone to walk in freely.

Dankie vir jou terugvoer Liezil.
Ons vra verskoning oor die lawaai, dit is die eerste keer wat die groep by ons was en glad nie wat ons verwag het, of wat gereël was nie. Op grond van jou resensie is die besluit gemaak om dit nie weer toe te laat nie. Die rustigheid en stilte op die perseel is iets wat vir ons, en ons gaste, baie belangrik is. Weereens jammer oor die ongerief.
Jou punte oor sekuriteit is ook aan ons eienaars deurgegee om hersien te word.

Teleurgesteld.

Ons het in die cottage gebly vir 3 dae. Daar word aangedui dat dit vir 6 persone is, maar dit is in werklikheid 'n eenslaapkamer met TV-kamer waarin 'n bunkbed met sleepercouch staan. Die sleepercouch het geen basis nie, maar is soos 'n trampolienseil met 'n matrassie wat presies 3 cm dik is, nie eens geskik vir 'n kleuter se gewig nie. Daar is ook geen pakplek of kaste vir die 4 gaste wat in die TV-kamer moet slaap nie, slegs een kas in die een slaapkamer. Die gebou is baie oud en yskoud, die aircon het ook nie gewerk nie, dus was dit permanent yskoud. Die ligging van die kothuis is ook van so aard dat dit baie min son/natuurlike lig kry. Die treinspoor loop 15 m agter die huis verby en is baie steurend snags. Ons het vriende gehad wat in ander enkelkamers gebly het wat baie tevrede was, maar die kothuis is beslis nie waarde vir geld nie, en baie beslis nie geskik vir 6 mense soos geadverteer nie. Geboue is oud en moet opgeknap word. Die linne is ook oud. Ontbyt was lekker en diens in die restaurant was goed.

Disappointed.

We stayed in the cottage for 3 days. It is indicated that it is for 6 people, but it is in fact a one-bedroom with a TV room in which there is a bunk bed with a sleeper couch. The sleeper couch has no base, but is like a trampoline sail with a mattress that is exactly 3 cm thick, not even suitable for a toddler's weight. There is also no storage space or cupboards for the 4 guests who have to sleep in the TV room, only one cupboard in the one bedroom. The building is very old and freezing, the aircon didn't work either, so it was permanently freezing. The location of the cottage is also such that it gets very little sun/natural light. The train tracks pass 15 m behind the house and are very disturbing at night. We had friends staying in other single rooms who were very happy, but the cottage is definitely not value for money, and very definitely not suitable for 6 people as advertised. Buildings are old and need renovation. The linen is also old. Breakfast was nice and service in the restaurant was good.

Rustige omgewing, gerieflike en baie netjiese verblyf en die ontbyt is n groot verskeidenheid vars geregte.

Ons sal beslis weer Oudrift Riverside Lodge besoek.

Die kamers was skoon en netjies, maar 'n bietjie aan die duur kant vir wat 'n mens kry.

Ons het in 'n standaard kamer gebly, en kon seker nie te veel verwag nie. Maar teen R450 per persoon het ek meer verwag. Kamers is skoon en netjies, maar dit het gevoel asof ons in 'n tronk bly met al die tralies voor die kamers en 'n gemeenskaplike hek wat baie sukkel om oop en toe te maak. Ek sou baie gelukkig gewees het met wat ons gekry het as ek eerder R300 per persoon betaal het. Daar was ook geen parkeerplek vir ons gewees nie, en moes nogal ver van die kamer af stop. Hulle het ook gesukkel met die administrasie. Die skapies wat voor die kamers wei is baie oulik! Ontbyt was lekker!

The rooms were clean and tidy, but a bit on the expensive side for what you get.

We stayed in a standard room, and probably couldn't expect too much. But at R450 per person I expected more. Rooms are clean and tidy but it felt like we were staying in a prison with all the bars in front of the rooms and a communal gate that was very difficult to open and close. I would have been very happy with what we got if I had paid R300 per person instead. There was also no parking for us, and had to park quite far from the room. They also struggled with the administration. The cupboards that graze in front of the rooms are very cute! Breakfast was delicious!

Baie dankie vir jou konstruktiewe terugvoer Nicolene. Ons waardeer dat jy die tyd geneem het om vir ons te laat weet oor jou ervaring.

Ons vra om verskoning oor die uitdagings wat julle gehad het met die hek, ons gaan verseker daarna kyk. Ons het terugvoer ontvang van vorige gaste wat se hulle het onveilig gevoel sonder enige veiligheids besperring by die kamers. Omdat dit vir ons belangrik is dat ons gaste met geruste harte kan slaap, het ons die veiligheids tralies opgesit - albyt die nou bietjie die oog.
Jammer vir die ongerief oor die parkering, as gevolg van die troue op perseel daai dag was dit maar bietjie besig gewees.

Weerens, dankie vir die terugvoer.
