Enjoyable stay in a neat and tidy room. The staff are friendly and helpful. Attending to your every need. The home cooked meals smells divine and next time I will make sure that I book a meal. The garden is so beautiful and the bonsai trees are a very attractive feature.
The pool gets sun all day long and the water 💦 is beautiful to cool 😎 off on a hot day

Nice place and good location but do not take breakfast if you want to be in time after breakfast. First come, first served principle should be followed but when we arrived first we were served last after 1 hour and 20 minutes waiting.No apologies, no explanations, no coffee...

Op de doorreis van Krugerpark naar Bloemfontein een eenvoudige tussenstop gemaakt bij Aark Guest Lodge. Diner op t laatste moment mogelijk; dagmenu. Ontbijt ook prima. Kamer maakt een erg gedateerde indruk, maar nog steeds goed genoeg voor een doorreis overnachting

The theme is attractive and well developed. Management needs to remember that customers are paying to stay at the hotel. A less strict approach will serve them well.
