    Nothing Could have been better, Everything was Just Perfect.

    Olive Hill Country Lodge, is indeed a great place to book in at, a quiet and serene environment, which if you are from the busy Metropolitan you would really enjoy. The Place is Neat and Clean, the bathroom facilities are also clean and neat. The Staff, Oom Derik was very welcoming and Accommodating, made my booking feel effortless and simple. Thank You So Much, My Daughter enjoyed the Animals she saw aswell. Overall 10/10.

    It was odd to have such a big window in the shower. We didn't think they needed the window treatment there, as it was quite soiled, maybe some window frosting would be better - for both privacy and cleanliness, but this is an easy fix, and deflects from how nice the rest of the establishment is.

    Very nice overnight visit, and we were surprised to see that, even though this is a self catering establishment, the owner had left us with drinks, milk, some fruit and breakfast cereals - such a thoughtful thing to do. The beds are very comfy, bedding nice, and the gardens are probably beautiful in the summer. It is very peaceful, and we had a very good night's sleep. Would definitely stay there again.

    Room 3's bath was WAY too small for me (I'm 1.9m tall so it's understandable). Also, the aircon's remote gave me anxiety. Jokes aside, REALLY nice place to stay at if you're on a budget.

    Place was clean, comfy and cozy when we arrived. Massive solar panel system so loadshedding won't be a problem here. Staff was super friendly as well.

    The owner took a long time to provide us with WIFI password. we have to call him to give us that password. staff said its only him who provide guests with it. To avoid inconvenience to the guests,its like he can write it down for guests and leave it in the safe maybe

    The property is a self catering but they went all out of their way to provide us with food that will help us to have a quick breakfast,it was really amazing how thoughtful they are. The location is very good for overnight. it is not far from the airport. I love it so much and it was so convenient for us as we had very early flight.

    We loved everything there was really nothing we did not like, fresh fruit and a breakfast starter pack in your room - milk, coffee and tea, rusks, yoghurt really good value for money

    Our host was very help full seen as we first got lost and then had a problem with our puppy we came to fetch, he was very understanding and made our stay such a good experience, really lovely place and awesome for pet owners with big lawn for puppies to walk about, would really recommend it to our friends

    Great place for an overnight, on the edge of Bloemfontein but close to lots of shops and restaurants. The room was neat and the water pressure great fro a shower. Full kitchen with biscuits for an early start.

    A friendly welcome and quick check in. The rooms were luxurious and spotless and offered everything we could need for self catering. The coffee station, cereal, rusks, fruit, milk and yoghurts in the kitchenette were a nice surprise. Aircon in the room, sufficient hot water and a lovely veranda and garden. We made use of the braai facilities.

    Nothing at all...all was good..i would however like more fresh milk for the cereal provided.

    Its a really good place to sleep on your way to Cape Town or East London etc...the silence...peace and fresh air helps to get a good nights rest..its pet friendly and very safe...will definitely stay their again...the staff is friendly and will go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable....a healthy breakfast is included...i will however advise you to take extra fresh milk for your cereal which is included in your breakfast.
