The location is beautiful, having not been there for a few years it was not as good as it had been. Paperbark, where we stayed had amazing staff and the food was great. The accomodation could do with a good clean and paint. Looking out of the bedroom window and seeing animals right there was wonderful.Checking in and out was quite difficult. One incident involved a manager arguing with american quests about the advertised web site price and the other with guests complaining about the food in the picnic basket that cost R 600 being still frozen. Not sure if we would return. The animal sightings were great.

Since we were traveling for work and this was a two day getaway, we did not have a car. The staff was quite accommodating, picking us up so we could meet a friend for dinner at the Aloe Restaurant even though we were staying on the other side of the reserve (thank you, Maxwell!), arranging car pickup for our return to the airport, and picking us up to return to reception for check out. The food was wonderful and the staff, particularly Teresa at Paperbark, were exceptional.

Although the finer detail and small touches have been missed. Being in the hotel industry I know that these are by biggest crowd pleasers. Advertised is turndown service which was not done at all.. Wifi is advertised your the room also had no internet. It is also advertised with a minibar. The only part of the mini bar we could locate we those and 5 drop milk triangles, other than that there was no fresh water or anything to drink. Biggest disgust is that soon chech I is the we were seated waiting for our key and other genetaleman walks I to check in...3 ladies facing our direction while watching a PC screen completely ignore the fact that there are paying customers needing something, when I tried to flag them down and call them out, the door was simply slid closed. Won't be back and would not recommend.

Food was average. Breakfast was good however we did not enjoy all the food for dinner. For the prices of the dinners I expected far superior food. We ordered steak which was over cooked and not medium as requested and the lamb shank was the smallest lamb shank i have ever seen. The General Manager was present all the time in the dininigroom talking to guests. Would have loved to have comfortable chairs in the room we stayed in which was Paperback number 1. Unfortunately there is a factory not far from where we were and made a terrrible noise early in the morning even on the Sunday. Great rock pool and picnic area and we did a self drive around the reserve and this was fantastic. ##### Claudette ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 6, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Fantastic stay,a must to do.

Other than that it was an amazing experience. The hotel was great with a absolutely stunning views. The staff were so friendly and always had a smile on their face. The food was so delicious.

Very informative guide - Milton. Air con didn't work in the room we stayed in and bath towels were very old and tatty. Sliding / Door coming out of restaurant onto verandah needs repair or replacing. Evening meal was satisfactory, but service in restaurant was average. There seemed to be a shortage of staff on duty. Both in reception and in restaurant? ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels.d178276.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Place Toronto - Brampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Toronto-Brampton.h73671293.Hotel-Information) > > [Beechwood B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Durban-Hotels-Beechwood-BB.h18303560.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Iberostar Hotels in Cayo Coco](https://www.expedia.ca/Cayo-Coco-Hotels-Iberostar.0-0-d6348829--bIberostar.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Copenhagen](https://www.expedia.ca/Copenhagen-Hotels.d178252.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Las Vegas Strip](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Strip-Las-Vegas-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-n800045-0-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sandman Hotel & Suites Squamish](https://www.expedia.ca/Squamish-Hotels-Sandman-Hotel-Suites-Squamish.h2840571.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Sheraton-Vancouver-Wall-Centre.h11699.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kingston](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingston-Hotels.d6057821.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Excellence Punta Cana - Adults Only All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Excellence-Punta-Cana-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h982733.Hotel-Information) > > [Makkah Towers](https://www.expedia.ca/Mecca-Hotels-Makkah-Towers.h17947.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartments Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Apartments.d178314-aaApartments.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Summit Cottage on Kawagama Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Algonquin-Highlands-Hotels-Summit-Cottage-On-Kawagama-Lake.h69330890.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d6023515-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/del/toronto-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County to NYC-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/nyc/detroit-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Paris (CDG) to New York (JFK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cdg/jfk/paris-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/lax/vancouver-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Regina (YQR) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqr/lax/regina-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from New York (JFK) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/jfk/del/new-york-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Mexico City (MEX) to Guadalajara (GDL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mex/gdl/mexico-city-to-guadalajara) > > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/gla/yyz/glasgow-to-toronto) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Toronto.d178314.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Pereira](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Pereira.d2763.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Costa Rica Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Costa-Rica.d42.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General > [Visit Saint-Émile](https://www.expedia.ca/Quebec-City-Saint-Emile.dx553248635976383573)
