Excellent stay. Clean and beautiful place!
Pros:

Location is perfect, very close to shopping centres and the highway. The staff is very accommodating and friendly. The amenities provided in the lodge are so thought out and so so convenient. This will be my go-to place whenever I am in Polokwane.

will consider them in my next visit to the City
Pros:

A place to be, home away from home, quietness and cleanliness, staff very friendly and helpful, this is a place to go back, no regrets, excellent experience, will definitely go back and recommend it to other travelers

Cons:

Selling of bottled water and some soft drinks, with the price one pay, bottled water should be complimentary, otherwise nothing more not be liked, the place is beautiful

Consistently excellent service. A true gem, complemented by a beautiful, tranquil garden.
Pros:

Well located and offering a high level of privacy, Polo Guesthouse features beautifully appointed rooms that are modern, clean, and impeccably maintained. It has easily become my go-to spot whenever I’m in Polokwane - reliable, comfortable, and just a little bit of a hidden gem.

The staff is consistently friendly, professional, and flexible, always ready to assist with a smile. Nothing ever feels like too much trouble. Honestly, it’s one of those places that makes me consider extending your trip.

Cons:

The bathroom in one of the larger rooms could benefit from an upgrade, but it was still very neat and clean. The smaller rooms, however, are impeccable.

As above - above sentence refers. Rest was really great!
Pros:

Excellent

Cons:

Breakfast: the 1x “cocktail” sausage is really disappointing…. nearly insulting to put 1 x cocktail sausage out… rather just leave it off the menu…

Overall is was awesome , the breakfast was good, place clean
Pros:

The gardening makes it so homely
Room was squeaky clean.

Cons:

The curtains are too visible to light from the outside , forced to wake up early at 5am because of the sunrise shining in the room . It would be best you add blockout curtains to all rooms

I used to have two places to sleep at when I am in Polokwane, I now found my one home away from home
Pros:

The food is just special, it was as good as any specialty restaurant. I had English breakfast the first day and the following day they surprised me with an Omelet. Both were excellent. I preferred to seat by their beautiful garden, nestled inside the greenery.

They were so considerate such that the next day, when I went to ask if I could be served in my suite, I found that they had set up a table for me on the same spot.

Cons:

I do not know why I only found out about the place now, when I had been travelling for work to Polokwane for over 5 years. Maybe they need to improve on their advertising footprint, I am not sure.
