It was boiling hot when we arrived, cabin was closed up, no windows open so took almos 5 hours to actually cool down. When we went to the pool it was green and apparently they are still getting it ready for summer??? Really? If I had not paid yet Inwould have left and booked into another place. The photos were misleading....... ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8A970698AD4D41266EF737BBE5E2B77BA64598B81575732509829.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Deirdré Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 25 Mar 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness Bains lodge is a beautiful setting and great restaurants to choose from. My bed was comfortable. The bathroom was my problem, the shower floor tiles looks about 20 years old and did not look clean at all. Also the roof of the bathroom was full of mould patches. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### olivia 8 Jan 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ok place The apartments smell of dampness and smoke, I think they should be very strict with their "no smoking in rooms policy" that is if they have one. The braai area outside the apartment was nice and the garden around the apartment clean ##### olivia Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 6 Jan 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful exterior but interior was rather shocking. Extreme mold on bathroom ceiling, toilet was leaking, a hole in one of the duvet covers and hand prints and smears all over the sliding door glass panel.

This place is too noisy until 23:00\. The noise is coming from people speaking outside and music. In the morning the staff is talking loudly proclaiming n the morning while you're sleeping. The lodges reception is very convincing. You'll get the shock of your life when get to your room. The money charged is a rip off compared to the state of the lodge. ##### Kgaogelo Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sid 2 May 2018 When travelling one needs a two prong plug for charging cellphones - this facility was not available. There was no hanging place in the bathroom for towels etc ##### Sid ### 6/10 Okay #### Jacob Willem 16 Mar 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Cabin 3 I love staying at Bains game lodge especially in the Wooden Cabins, very relax and homely feeling. But Avoid staying in Cabin 3, need a refit example the door is old and there is a massive ant infestation inside. every morning the floor is covered in ants. It is the only cabin that is like that, the rest is perfect. ##### Jacob Willem Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elize 5 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bains lodge overnight Overnight stay only and will make use of this facility again ##### Elize Stayed 1 night in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Kelleigh 12 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Simple and safe The room was clean and comfortable however there was only 1 bathroom towel for the 2 of us and the patio door did not seal properly ##### Kelleigh Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacob Willem 8 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great ##### Jacob Willem Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacob Willem 8 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Money worth ##### Jacob Willem Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 11 Dec 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service #### Place itself is great, but big disappointment My first impression of the hotel was very good. Staffs were so friendly and welcomed. I really loved it. So when we found that they gave us a wrong information about the neighboring tourist site, we thought It would be better to inform them so that they can update or correct their information. We got the information from them and took a taxi to go there paying R170, and we found the site was closed. So we had to pay R340 for taxi for nothing. We never accused them, but wanted them to update the information so that they can improve their service. However, when we told them, both of the staffs who gave us information turned their face, and started to give us their excuses. One of them even confessed she didn't even know the place without hesitation. Other one just said to us "It was what I was told by the site," as if it's none of her business. No apology with sympathy, or promise to update the information. It was such a disappointment to us, since our first reception was so good.... The site is beautiful, and restaurants are good. But I personally don't want to have that kind of experiences anymore.... ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Mabula Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bela-Bela-Hotels-Mabula-Game-Lodge.h1559026.Hotel-Information) > > [Tsala Treetop Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Plettenberg-Bay-Hotels-Tsala-Treetop-Lodge.h1030430.Hotel-Information) > > [Lush Private Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Lush-Private-Lodge.h24940930.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kingdom Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moses-Kotane-Hotels-The-Kingdom-Resort.h6792618.Hotel-Information) > > [Glen Afric Country Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Broederstroom-Hotels-Glen-Afric-Country-Lodge.h27136993.Hotel-Information) > > [Gondwana Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mossel-Bay-Hotels-Gondwana-Game-Reserve.h4145102.Hotel-Information) > > [Woodbury Tented Camp - Amakhala Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sidbury-Hotels-Woodbury-Tented-Camp-Amakhala-Game-Reserve.h9642577.Hotel-Information) > > [Ivory Tree Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Ivory-Tree-Game-Lodge.h5994597.Hotel-Information) > > [Kariega Game Reserve - Main Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kenton-On-Sea-Hotels-Kariega-Game-Reserve-Main-Lodge.h4576469.Hotel-Information) > > [Margate Beach Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margate-Hotels-Margate-Beach-Club.h9458217.Hotel-Information) > > [Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hlabisa-Hotels-Rhino-Ridge-Safari-Lodge.h9401037.Hotel-Information) > > [Kwa Maritane Self-Catering Chalets](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Kwa-Maritane-Self-Catering-Chalets.h22471915.Hotel-Information) > > [Inverdoorn Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Breede-River-Hotels-Inverdoorn-Private-Game-Reserve.h3131643.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Polokwane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Polokwane-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Polokwane.h17771611.Hotel-Information) > > [Hartford House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mooirivier-Hotels-Hartford-House.h27344764.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cabanas Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cabanas-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9459.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanbona Wildlife Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barrydale-Hotels-Sanbona-Wildlife-Reserve.h1155735.Hotel-Information) > > [Garden Route Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albertinia-Hotels-Garden-Route-Game-Lodge.h2917158.Hotel-Information) > > [Pumba Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grahamstown-Hotels-Pumba-Private-Game-Reserve.h2319463.Hotel-Information) > > [Mhondoro Safari Lodge & Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vaalwater-Hotels-Mhondoro-Safari-Lodge-Villa.h11522151.Hotel-Information) > > [Vuyani River Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Vuyani-Tented-Camp-All-Inclusive.h57157744.Hotel-Information) > > [Vuyani Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Vuyani-Safari-Lodge-All-Inclusive.h36961786.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Kwa-Maritane-Bush-Lodge.h526966.Hotel-Information) > > [Sebatana Private Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vaalwater-Hotels-Sebatana-Private-Reserve.h32459379.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cascades Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cascades-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9515.Hotel-Information) > > [Tshukudu Bush Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Tshukudu-Bush-Lodge.h1201423.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun City Hotel and Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-Soho-Hotel-Casino-At-Sun-City-Resort.h527184.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oyster Box](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Umhlanga-Hotels-The-Oyster-Box.h2939964.Hotel-Information)
