We stayed here for one night only as part of a wedding party. We had one of the single rooms (double occupancy) at the back of the hotel in the garden. It was quiet and we could enjoy a quiet, peaceful rest after the wedding! The bed was comfortable with good, percale linen. We had a shower only. There is... More

We as a family visited your excellent, amazing, wonderful and fantastic country hotel. With the referral from Joey from housekeeping. Upon arrival we were treated like royalty. We were escorted to our room and much to our surprise we found a welcome letter written with rose pebbles on the bed. We were invited, after having several cream brulees and coffee... More

I checked TripAdvisor before deciding to stay at Shangri-La. You might have noticed the mixed reviews - I did. I want to post something definitive! The restaurant is lovely, and the staff are well-meaning despite being a bit lax. But the room was *terrible*. Dirty towels, broken furniture, generally grubby... Not even close to worth their R940 per night for... More

James Hilton, in his novel "Lost Horizon, described a mythical utopia; a permanently happy land, isolated from the outside world and called it "Shangri-La". That's what you will find just one-and-a-half hours outside of bustling Johannesburg. My family and I have been visiting Shangri-La since the mid-1990's. It really is an ideal place to relax and unwind for a night... More

We were very impressed with the Hotel. The gardens were very well maintained and the rooms that we had were spacious and comfortable (36/7/8). Our only grumble was that we had looked at the menu and chosen between ourselves what we would like for dinner, only to be told at the last minute that we were now having to have... More
