Top Pilanesberg National Park Hotel Reviews

Bakubung Bush Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at Bakubung Bush Lodge. The staff were incredibly helpful, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to make our stay comfortable. The lodge itself was very clean, well maintained and had such a great atmosphere throughout. The safari experience was absolutely unforgettable — seeing the animals up close in such beautiful surroundings was a real highlight. The whole place has an amazing vibe, perfect for families or anyone wanting a relaxing bush getaway. We would definitely come back again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Sun City/Pilanesberg area."

Black Rhino Game Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely lodge but the rooms are a bit tired and the housekeeping team could do with improving the amenities in the rooms as well as the turn down service which is currently messy and inconsistent. The main lodge staff, including servers, front desk, and chefs were all welcoming, friendly and helpful. Food was always fresh and delicious. Changing high tea to a lunch would be a good move in my opinion. Highlight of the trip was the Guide Cameron who went out of his way to give everyone on his vehicle an excellent and memorable safari experience. His sense of humour, knowledge, care for his guests was above and beyond expectation. He also had an obvious passion for the location and lodge. Overall a great experience - including the Elephants drinking out the pool!"

The Cabanas Hotel at Sun City Resort

8/10 Good

"The Cabanas hotel is great for families or if you want to stay at Sun City on a budget. The rooms have great showers and being in the ground floor you e got use of sunbeds. Out look fantastic in block 23, must say rooms spotless, staff great but it’s in need of a bit of TLC. The breakfast buffet plentiful but weekends are busy and can be noisy. The walks, the amenities and swimming pools fab, so much to do and see. Crazy golf and water world all extra. Lost city and wave world awesome. Evening walk around the golf course stunning specially with the visiting animals. One thing though if you want to do a safari send an enquiry don’t wait till you’re there. Also be aware if you arrange a taxi you’re best to ask the hotel to let the front gate know otherwise outside companies find it difficult to gain entrance. We’ve had a great few days sad to leave but would have preferred more of a hotel style holiday than the apartment style. We had a lovely meal at the Gary player clubhouse recommend trying the hole-in-one cocktail Sun City a fabulous location, great for all ages. So much to do and enjoy for all ages with a range of accommodation. Its approximately 2.45 hours drive from Johannesburg airport"
