The breakfasts were good, we had supper on Saturday evening and the eisbein was fridge cold in the middle. They had it watmed and replaced our sides and gave us discount. On Friday evening the hotel was fille with lively clasical music but the rest of the weekend they only played african music. It just didn't suit the surroundings... On the website they show a beautiful clean tennis court and volley ball area, which is now actually overgrown and not useable. The gardens need attention. The grass wasn't even cut where our room was. ##### Annari Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### ANTHONY 17 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### he bad and the good We were allocated, most probably the worst room available. Room 15 is extremely small, it really is a concocted room. The mattress was overused and hollow and extremely uncomfortable. The toilet kept on running through the night, very disturbing. Although the hotel knew that I am a diabetic, no sweetener were supplied. They further allocated our spa booking to another couple with the feeblest of excuses. We were supposed to go in 10h30, but were moved to a 12h15 slot, which inconvenienced us, as we had other arrangements which we had to cancel. Positives: 1\. Joey was very professional, friendly and accommodating in moving us to a far better room with a proper mattress; 2\. Special accolades to Alfred. He was the star of the staff. He arranged the spa treatment to be moved to the new slot. He really went the extra mile in arranging for us to watch the rugby Saturday afternoon, even when they had a problem with their power supply. His service gets a 10/10. ##### ANTHONY Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Roith 13 Jan 2020 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Shangri-la past its best Shangri-La is an old place and it shows.

Carpets in the room was filthy. Baby cot was dirty, I made them clean it with soap and water. They had a dirty torn sponge as a mattress. Grounds where very neat and tidy and gardens beautiful. Breakfast on Sat was good. Food and waiters helpful. Sunday food was terrible. Lacked flavor and taste. We where required to pay for our cappuccino as it was not part of the breakfast buffet yet on Saturday we got it with breakfast. We did speak to the manager and he did not have much to say. All cups where even smelling eggy as well as plates.this was my put off not to return to the establishment. ##### Devashni Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amelia 2 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort I thought it was good value for money!

Daher war der Preis nur 1/5 des Normalpreises. Zu diesem Preis ist das Hotel unschlagbar. Das Essen und das im Preis beinhaltete Frühstück sind hervorragend. Das Zimmer, welches ich hatte, war in seine Tage gekommen. Außerdem wäre besseres Lüften angesagt. Wifi ist leider nur bedingt vorhanden. ##### Verified traveller ## 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) > > [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) > > [Aha Makalali Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Aha-Makalali-Private-Game-Reserve.h2343567.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) > > [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) > > [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) > > [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) > > [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 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) ---
