The staff were great. The breakfast was delicious but unfortunately neither of us enjoyed our dinners. One suggestion would be to improve upon the extractor fan/ ventilation in the kitchen if possible as the passages/closer rooms smell of cooking. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul Dec 30, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Nice lodge; poor room. Friendly welcome, but that’s where the good news ends. Our room, immediately adjacent to the kitchen and restaurant, filled with the smell of frying food from about 4pm. Our request to change rooms was denied. As the restaurant filled, so the noise level in our room escalated. The layout needs review. Breakfast was good. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 8, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good choice in Underberg We very much enjoyed our stay at Malachite Manor. The room was spacious and well equipped. All staff members were very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was nice. We also had dinner there and we would definitely recommend it. With a special mention for the absolutely delicious lamb curry.

The food is cooked by her as well, and though it takes some time to prepare (it's just her after all!), it was delicious and worth the wait! She offers traditional South African fare as well as some very tasty Thai dishes (definitely recommend the chicken green curry!). Couldn't have asked for a more beautiful, comfortable, and lovely stay, would love to stay there again! ##### Joy ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin, Durban North aka Mars May 17, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### THE ARMSTRONGS THE OWNERS AND THE STAFF OF THIS ESTABLISHMENT ARE GREAT- YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE VISITING OLD FRIENDS.

It was excellent with the most friendly host and hostess, Mike and Carrin. The bar bill was the most reasonable out of all the hotels we have been to during our holiday. Thank you and we would definitely return to the same place on our next visit to the berg". Needless to say I think they LOVED it! ##### Heather ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 24, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Palace-Of-The-Lost-City-At-Sun-City-Resort.h392096.Hotel-Information) > > [Shibuya Excel Hotel Tokyu](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Shibuya-Excel-Hotel-Tokyu.h486569.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Belleville](https://www.expedia.ca/Belleville-Hotels.d6057820.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Chicago](https://www.expedia.ca/Chicago-Hotels.d178248.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Toronto Downtown Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Toronto-Downtown-Centre.h26247.Hotel-Information) > > [Family Hotels in Paris](https://www.expedia.ca/Paris-Hotels-Family-Hotel.0-0-d179898-tFamilyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Polokwane](https://www.expedia.ca/Polokwane-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Polokwane.h17771611.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Orlando](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels.d178294.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [OTL Gouverneur Sherbrooke](https://www.expedia.ca/Sherbrooke-Hotels-OTL-Gouverneur-Sherbrooke.h18964290.Hotel-Information) > > [Mafigeni Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Gravelotte-Hotels-Mafigeni-Safari-Lodge.h3954755.Hotel-Information) > > [Thorn & Feather (Vermaaklikheid)](https://www.expedia.ca/Vermaaklikheid-Hotels-Thorn-Feather.h61102048.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Bentley](https://www.expedia.ca/Bentley-Hotels.d3000432818.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Canton](https://www.expedia.ca/Canton-Hotels.d7239.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/del/toronto-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Miami (MIA) to Boscobel (OCJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mia/ocj/miami-to-ocho-rios) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Shanghai (PVG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/pvg/vancouver-to-shanghai) > > [Flights from Orlando (MCO) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mco/mia/orlando-to-miami) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Suðurnesjabær (KEF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/kef/vancouver-to-reykjavik) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Taoyuan City (TPE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tpe/toronto-to-taipei) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Los Angeles (SMO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/smo/vancouver-to-santa-monica) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Gander (YQX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yqx/toronto-to-gander) > > [Flights from Amsterdam (AMS) to Velika Gorica (ZAG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ams/zag/amsterdam-to-zagreb) ### Packages > [Las Vegas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas.d178276.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Banff Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Banff.d10550.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Taipei Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Taipei.d180030.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### Vacation Rentals > [Sidney Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Sidney-Vacation-Rentals.d9614.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals)
