La Montagne Guest Lodge

Lovely place... beautiful views, the set up is great. One can relax and feel great. I am definitely coming back.

Such an amazing place to relax. Their food is amazing, service is excellent and the atmsophere is just excellent

Met the chef by chance at the entrance, we drove up with him to the place. A kind spirited man. Enjoyed the food even more knowing that we had put a face to it. We enjoyed our stay.

The room amazing for the weekend stay and was cleaned every morning. And the waiters was friendly and made you felt welcome at their lodge.

"We had an exceptional stay at La Montagne Guest House! Our room was spacious and comfortably equipped, boasting an impressively large bathroom. The breathtaking view of Hartbeespoort Dam was a highlight, complemented by the beautifully maintained gardens. The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The on-site restaurant served well-prepared and tasty dishes. A standout favourite was the thin-based pizza, offering a variety of delicious toppings. We highly recommend La Montagne Guest House.

This establishment may have been rated a 4-star *decades* ago but there's absolutely nothing 4-star about it now. I booked the family unit with my kids for 5 nights but ended up checking out earlier. From the facility - (we used up a can of Morten by the 2nd night but we could not enjoy a full night's sleep without cockroaches and wasps flying all over at night; and millipedes crawling all around, the shower handle of one bathroom broke on our 2nd day and it was never fixed till we checked out, the water was shut off and we all had to use one bathroom, the 2nd bathroom was all stuffy and moldy from the moment we checked in till we left) to the menu - (you get one tiny shot of juice for breakfast. Any extra request for juice costs R18, request for water also comes with a price and the breakfast menu is very much restricted). The service was nothing to write home about either. On the 2nd day, we were seeing pieces of pretzels and cookies from under the bed, possibly left behind by previous guests. I requested to speak to Kim the manager but that never happened and I had to leave. For a 4-star rated lodge, there was no Wi-Fi. Don't get me started on the road but I wouldn't blame the lodge for the road as they have no control over that but every other thing is within their control and it's definitely NOT a 4-star experience. It was a disappointing experience for my kids and I as we had expectations from the pictures and the reviews we saw online. We got little to no value for what we paid.
