poor almost terrible experience

the hotel was really poor for what it advertises. the room is old and the furniture looks like it has not been refreshed in ages. the whole hotel is very old. location is great though. but was really bad was that the wifi is capped at 250 megs per day, which you reach in five minutes of use, and then no more wifi - and they advertise free wifi! same for breakfast, you gotta pay for a cappuccino. so overall given the price, not to be recommended, justo go to backpackers place same service but much cheaper!

Loved the setting and the staff. Just a bit difficult carrying suitcases up the flights of steps to your room, yet once there absolutely great. Also, easy downhill walk into town to restaurants and beach but all uphill on the walk back. If you are driving, no problem at all. Breakfast was very good, views stunning, rooms very private.

Nice hotel in nice place.

Was there for one night. Nice view from the room, great service. Breakfast (omelet or fried eggs, deserts, fruits). Tree trunks through the floor balcony - really nice place.
Room not so big.
Really worth the money.

Google maps show wrong way to this hotel - be attention, look at the signs on the road.

150 Stufen - Stairway to Heaven

Wir hatten das Chalet #5 gemietet. Viel Platz, gute Ausstattung, schöne Terrasse mit traumhaften Blick auf das Meer. Der Weber-Grill war blitz-blank sauber, die Küche mit allem ausgestattet, was man im Urlaub braucht. Der tägliche Zimmerservice war sehr aufmerksam. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt und wir können das Chalet nur weiterempfehlen. Angeblich haben die einzelnen Chalets unterschiedliche Besitzer und sind unterschiedlich ausgestattet - Nummer 5 war auf jeden Fall sehr schön. Chalet 3 gehört dem gleichen Besitzer und hat ein Schlafzimmer mehr.

Als wir nachmittags in die Unterkunft kamen, mussten wir trotz Klingeln an der Rezeption fast eine halbe Stunden warten, bis ein Mitarbeiter kam. Die Sauberkeit ließ zu wünschen übrig: Auf der Waschbeckenarmatur waren noch viele Barthaarstoppel von dem Vorgänger, die Fenster waren dreckig und im Zimmer müffelte es. Allgemein war das Zimmer nicht sehr sauber. Die Badezimmertür ließ sich nicht schwer schließen, da entweder die Tür aufgequollen war oder schief im Rahmen hing.
In unserem merhwöchigen Südafrika-Aufenthalt war die Boardwalk Lodge die schlechteste und zugleich teuerste Unterkunft.

Hotel mit Schimmel in den Zimmern

Der Aufenthalt hat bei uns nur eine Nacht angedauert (für 2 Nächte gebucht) dann sind wir schnellstmöglich von dort weg in eine neue Lodge.
Die Zimmer haben Schimmel, es roch muffig und die Betten waren klamm.
Mehr als enttäuschend! Nicht zu empfehlen.

Ansprechend und erholsam in der herrlichen Natur

Man hat einen genialen Blick auf die Küste. Es ist schön in den Berg gebaut und die Natur wurde integriert.
Das Personal ist sehr hilfreich und nett. In den Betten könnte man erholsam schlafen und das Meeresrauschen trug zu einem guten Schlaf bei.
Weniger schön ist die Tatsache, daß das WLAN nicht der Lodge gehört, sondern der Stadt Wilderness. Das hat extreme Schwankungen zufolge und erlaubt bis zu 250 MB pro Tag. Leider steht das nur an einem Schild im Zimmer und vorher gibt es keinen Hinweis dazu.
Die Minibar ist gut bestückt und das Frühstück ist okay. Man kann sich jeweils das Ei wünschen wie man es mag und auch die Beilagen.

Tolles Hotel mit großem ABER

Eine schöne Nacht im Hotel, die Lage ist einzigartig, die Aussicht auf's Meer super.
Das Personal super freundlich, Frühstück hat alles, was man braucht um in den Tag zu starten. Restaurants sind im Ort locker zu Fuß erreichbar.
Doch nun das ABER... 4 Sterne möchte man haben. Das Badezimmer: Fliesen im Boden defekt, Duschkabine schließt nicht richtig, so ist nach dem Duschen alles feucht im Bad. Außerdem schon ziemlich angegammelt an sämtlichen Dichtungen.
Im Wohnraum 2 Fenster defekt, beide lassen sich nicht mehr schließen, bei einem fehlt sogar der Griff.
