"Montusi Mountain Lodge definitely lives up to its excellent reviews, a stunning mountain retreat. The food was delicious, very nice menus and the service could not be faulted. The family suite was very comfortable. A lovely place to visit if you are seeking tranquility. Particularly enjoyed the late afternoon teas playing good old fashioned board games with my sons in the lounge. Will definitely be back."

Very nice stay at MONTUSI LODGE
"We stayed once again at this lodge and felt very welcome, although our previous stay dated from two years back. This place really deserves a 5 star rating. Nice little touches in the room (candy, free pen, soft drink etc.) add to this feeling of well being. As does the excellent service during dinner and breakfast. The entire place is spacious, well maintained and run by a very friendly and helpful staff. We were glad we could finish our 6th stay in South-Africa in this lodge with its magnificent views."
