My dear friend and I had lunch there to celebrate her birthday, which I unfortunately missed out on due to overseas travel earlier this month. I am extremely pleased by the high level of service there, from the friendly reception by the front desk staff, to the delivery of a cut glass ash tray in the garden area, whilst waiting... More

The attentive staff made our stay totally fabulous. The dinners were, long and leisurely and delicious, however people are in conference all day, the dinners were a little too long and... More

Yesterday my wife surprised me with a birthday lunch at De Hoek where we were joined by close friends and had an excellent lunch in the garden. From being warmly greeted on arrival and the welcoming complimentary cocktails, through to a short but well-balanced table d’ôte menu and very attentive service it was a memorable meal. The food was good... More

The hotel is classy and tranquil. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and are kept in great condition. The staff are on top form - always attentive, friendly and professional, and the food is superb. The conferencing facilities are also top-notch. From check-in to checkout, its always a great experience for a business conference or a romantic weekend away.

My wife spoiled me for fathers day and took me out for lunch to De Hoek Country House situated at the foothills of the Magaliesburg Mountains. This is a side of the Magliesburg I had never visited and I must say I will return and definitely consider De Hoek as a place to stay. The winding roads leading to De... More

My team and I spent 2 days and 1 night at De Hoek last week. It's a great place for a small conference. I believe that there are around 20 rooms, so unless you are sharing with your colleagues, 20 would be the max for an overnight conference. The conference room was nice and big, and in a beautiful setting.... More

My husband and I enjoy the odd escape to the countryside combined with a touch of luxury! This place does it all for us, from the peaceful babble of the river, the wind in the abundant tall trees, interesting menu, great wines & comfortable suites. The staff are friendly and service is excellent. Book a picnic down by the river... More

It is sad, in this day and age when everyone is battling to make ends meet to have this kind of Country Lodge knocked because there wasn't enough toilet paper! How much do you need at one time?
