“Perfect venue for kids and adults”

Reviewed 6 May 2013

This was my second stay at the hotel. The first time was last year in October 2013. My only complaint at the time was the way the rooms looked and everything else was beyond my imagination. I recently went back for my second visit ( 03 May 2013) and to my surprise the rooms have been made up/ refurbished which... More

“Not as good as you would expect”

Reviewed 22 April 2013

This was definetly not worth the money we paid! The service was excelent but the carpets needs a wash and the bedrooms have nothing much to offer. The linen was full of little marks and holes in it. The bathroom facilities was very bad and every time you try to run the bath the shower spits water, which is not... More

The Hotel is in a beautiful location, the landscaping and the dam are well maintaned.

“Incompetant service and dirty showers”

Reviewed 29 March 2013

I have a standard booking with this hotel and every week they seem to get confused with my business needs. I would like the rooms with a desk and desk light - how difficult do you think this could be? 30minutes later and I finally got a suitable room.. The showers have poor temperature control and the grim! Rather don't... More

“Good Buffet”

Reviewed 26 January 2013

We opted for the buffet in the evening. The spread was good and well prepared. The atmosphere was pleasant but the bar service appears to be rather slow. The so called security at the gate would not put off a very determined criminal.

The staff morale is very very low. Management is not recognizing this or is just ignoring it. The 1st day I got to the room there was un-cleaned spew in the basin and no toilet paper.

“Horrific Hotel to be associated with Tsogo Sun”

First of all the signage directing to the hotel is inadequate for a hotel that should be one of a kind especially in that part of Gauteng. The carpet is filthy everywhere.

“Great place for the family!”

We had an amazing time at the resort. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Great space for kids to play and be cared for. My kids always insist that we stay at Tsogo Sun establishments. They associate it with good times and precious memories. According to them the Riverside is the best one of the lot. Will visit soon again. The... More

“Boring but good hotel”

Reviewed 28 December 2012

This was our first time in this resort. The rooms are really good, spacious and beds are really nice. The rooms are great overall but room service is really slow and takes ages to even bring 2 plastic boxes. If not out there for adventure ( speedboating, fishing), then your stay will be pretty boring. The only things there are... More
