Incredible!
Pros:

Thank you, my family and I were in Mahikeng for a special occasion, finding an appropriate stay was important, and the Lodge exceeded all our expectations, especially the room with the skyline shower, which was the highlight of one of the rooms we booked.

The restaurant was just as amazing, including their staff.

Find another venue or skip Mahikeng
Pros:

Food average and the staff try to cope with the owner’s business model

Cons:

R1926.00 for 2 adults B&B (not cheap). Towels for only one person in the room and very old. No toiletries (other than bar of soap) at this price. Place very noisy from lunch to well after midnight. Mostly day visitors. Pick ups or deliveries started at 05h00 again and very noisy. Parking area is a mess and we had to squeeze in next to reception. Normal parking bays not suitable for Fortnuner’s etc. Breakfast on departure is a mess, just to many different groups. My view, this is a place for special events and conferences and not for travellers

Very poor
Cons:

The room was dirty. The sheets were dirty. The room was not cleaned. The wifi couldn't connect and the person who assisted me had no idea what they were doing. They "resolved" the problems by giving me a free cocktail.
