Overall good experience
The hotel is in a great place for walking and has a beautiful aspect. The rooms are fairly standard with a good bathroom but fridge or tv. The hotel provides a good breakfast and food throughout the day and it is very good value. There are options to hire guides for mountain walking if you’re new to the area.

Hiking experience
Fantastic place for hiking in the area such as Tugela falls
Crister, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A good starting point for walks. The Sentinel room was nice with a good outlook to the mountains. The food in the restaurant was not really special. We wifi in the Sentinel room was very poor.
Hanspeter, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very unique place to stay if you are hiking in the area. Our stay was very brief, arriving on one night and checking out and hiking the next day. The staff was great, assisting with transportation and packing a lunch since we would be missing breakfast. The room was very comfortable sized. Would recommend a side with a view of the mountains if you are staying a bit!
Richard, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The bed had bugs. The sheets were not clean. The bathroom floor had tufts of hair everywhere. The restaurant hardly had food. Each time we chose a meal we were told that it wasn't available.

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic views, and the best place to start the hike to Tugela Falls. Very quiet. The only sounds at night were the sounds of the horses eating grass. Excellent breakfast. The road to the property is paved, but the road from there to Sentinel Carpark is definitely a rock crawl and best left to a transfer by the lodge. Note that there’s a fee to get to the property (save your receipt for the way out as they ask for it). There is also the transfer fee and hiking fee. Also, the queen size bed is German style (2 mattresses shoved together, each with separate bedding).

Bel endroit pour départ de randonnée
Un joli hôtel bien situé pour effectuer la randonnée de Sentinel Peak. Le personnel est accueillant gentil et les restaurant est bon. Les bungalows sont confortables. Si nous devions revenir dans le drakensberg nous re ferions un stop ici.

Tugela Fallsへの登山目的で利用しました。 宿泊前からメッセージにて丁寧なご案内があり、相談にも乗って下さりました。また当日も、当方は片言の英語でしたがレセプションの方には熱心に相談に乗っていただけたのがとても助かりました。ロケーションは山の尾根上にあるため周囲には絶景が広がっていて抜群。その絶景を眺めながらの夕食も美味しく素晴らしかったです。朝一のシャトルを予約してであげるTugela Fallへと向かいましたが、登山用のお弁当セットも用意して下さり、滝を眺めながら食べたサンドイッチが格別でした。

Wunderschön gelegen, Sonnenaufgang direkt vor der Tür. Frühstück war sehr abwechslungsreich und das Highlight war die Wanderung mit 4x4 Anfahrt zum Amphietheater.
