Magoebaskloof Hotel

Magoebaskloof Hotel is set in one of the most breathtaking locations – the views of the valley are absolutely incredible and really make the stay special. The staff were truly exceptional too – warm, helpful, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. That said, the rooms are a bit tired and could be cleaner. The bathrooms are quite dated and would really benefit from a revamp. Small touches – like matching taps, a TV that’s properly aligned, and milk for coffee that isn’t rock solid – would go a long way in improving the overall experience. The restaurant menu is quite limited, especially if you're vegetarian or gluten-free. The breakfast buffet has a good spread, but it’s pricey, and unfortunately, there’s no alternative breakfast option. For someone who is gluten-free, paying full price for just fruit and grated cheese doesn’t feel great value. All in all, the views and the staff make it a memorable stay, but with a few upgrades and more inclusive food options, it could be truly fantastic.

Where do I start? Our fist room was dank, the hot water for shower took ages to come through. Obviously a very old structure and far from the geyser. The room hadn't been refurbished in a long time. After complaining we were moved upstairs to a much improved room. Generally, the whole hotel needs lots of tender loving care, and considering the most amazing situation and view the management should do something.

Magoebaskloof hotel is an absolute gem! We were treated to welcome dinks, snacks and an amazing bouquet of flowers in the room. The staff were super friendly and helpful and the food was excellent. The hotel has a charming air of a bygone era with dramatic views over the indigenous forests. The trails in the forest allow one to be immersed in all that nature has to offer. Highly recomended!

Visiting this hotel is like coming home. Steeped in tradition and with mountain friendliness and warm hearty food. Stayed for 3 nights. Enjoyed every minute of it. Roolien made us feel welcome and helped plan all our outings. The room was spacious and clean. Staff was helpful and friendly

The Magoebaskloof hotel has such spectacular & refreshing views. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. The staff were also professional, friendly & so hospitable. I would highly recommend the hotel as a must visit & see destination. Thank you for everything. Dineo M

The quality of the food is outstanding, all the staff is very helpful an friendly. Can see allover on the property that maintenance and upgrades is in full progress. The fireman & phoenix bar is definitely a must visit, cant wait that the red post box re-opens. The view is amazing even if it's misty or a clear day.
