- Lourenco (9/5): Brilliant - Setting was great and the meals were fantastic. The road closer to the venue
- Uwe (9/5): -
- Molebogeng (7/5): Wonderful stay. - The atmosphere and outside surroundings. The kitchen has everything you need and even more. The beds and upstairs room was full of dust. I would appreciate it they paid more attention to cleaning of the upstairs bedroom and bathroom.

- Naidoo (9/5): -
- Amelia (10/5): Heaven here on earth - - Caster and Buhle were excellent hosts and went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and looked after during my stay - I ended up staying ten days and had booked a room with separate lounge area which was a winner. Suggest that option for longer stays. - Fire in my room during turndown service - The food was fantastic - I loved the views and time on the deck with a cup of coffee was just what the dr ordered - Tumi, the cat was adorable - The housekeepers are thorough and they even put my pjs in my bed so electric blanket would warm them! - Spa treatments with Buhle was relaxing and highlight of my afternoon - The owner (Mouse) took some time to catch up and listened to my feedback - Amen, the gardener was so friendly and always made time for a hello and chat. - That I had to leave. I feel like I left a part of my heart behind. Unfortunately the road there is not great but do not let it put you off from experiencing this special property.

- XIAOSHAN (10/5): 一次十分完美的体验 - 位置非常好，景色很美，距离景区非常近。 非常有特色的酒店，服务人员也很热情 餐食准备的非常精致 但是由于是圣诞节期间，所以价格方面有点贵，本来觉得价格是非常的贵，但是如果考虑了三餐，价格可以接受。如果是平时的价格，这个就会非常超值了。
- JulieAnne (10/5): Amazing stay in a beautiful location - Absolutely loved Cleopatras from the outstanding food (most delicious I have had in ages) to the wonderful service delivered by their staff, who are very helpful and friendly. Location is beautiful. I hope to return soon to this lovely place! Nothing to dislike at all
- Leigh (5/5): - The meal was very good Had high expectations for the price we paid. The place looks tired and needs an upgrade.
- Claire (10/5): Spoilage from beginning to end with invisible service. - The location is absolute stunning. The mountains and dams provide an incredible view. The access is a little tricky but with the correct vehicle, the roads are navigable.
- Lea (10/5): Exceptional from beginning to end! - Tranquil, beautiful setting, full of charm, exceptional food and warm happy staff! Nothing not to love!
- Nola (10/5): -

- gilberto (7/5): -
- Malcolm (9/5): -
- Brian (9/5): Total luxury in a pristine environment. - Great staff, lovely room and amazing facilities. The whole place oozes history and a proud family background. The road getting there. (I was told it is being repaired, and there is much evidence of this, but "the money ran out".)
- Adele (10/5): A truly remarkable place! 5 ⭐️ service, food, accommodation, location!! - Everything! The road getting there was a tad bumpy 🙂
- Katie (8/5): Our anniversary was made special because of our stay with you guys! - The room was excellent, clean and comfortable There should be 2 complementary bottles of water in the room for guests
- Jade (8/5): The staff were so natural and welcoming. Felt like a home away from home - Beautiful views
- Susan (10/5): A beautiful step out of the hussle of life - The absolute serenity. The lovely staff, and one of the most incredible dinner experiences... a 5 course meal, included in your package, you would pay double for at any top restaurant, and this was top restaurant quality. I only booked for one night! But will definitely return
- Richardson (8/5): - Beautiful accommodation and attention to detail. Staff are amazing We were slightly disappointed with the food this visit.
- Warren (8/5): -
- Ruth (9/5): Very keen to go back in summer and enjoy the walks and outstanding cuisine - its a special place! - The afternoon tea, dinner & breakfast at Cleopatra were absolutely superb & delicious and the staff very friendly, charming and hospitable. The standard room #3 was perfect. Comfortable, great linen and although it was a very cold evening, the room was very warm (with a fireplace) and an electric blanket. Nice touches of toiletries and magazines. Had a look at the other accommodation options and all looked comfortable and cozy too. There is a lovely gentleness about Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse. The road to Cleopatra from Rosetta is rough and ready (it is being upgraded at the moment) but that must definitely NOT put you off visiting Cleopatra - drive slowly and take your time. The destination is worth the slow journey and the scenery is spectacular along the way. Why rush!?!

- Tania (10/5): A magical winter escape filled with laughter, luxury, and unforgettable memories. - The setting is absolutely breathtaking - serene, scenic, and surrounded by mountains. The attention to detail in the rooms and the warmth of the hospitality made us feel completely at home. Dinner was an experience on its own - beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The fires, the fresh mountain air, and the cozy atmosphere made for the perfect winter escape. Honestly, it’s hard to fault anything.
- Hayden (8/5): Very good -
- Henry (10/5): out of this world - Tranquility, nature and the excellent service. Nothing

- Irma (8/5): Very good -

A whole lot of imagination and hard work went into making the cleopatra the dream location it is. the food was absolutely delicious, while we were eating, the fires in the rooms were lighten so we came back to a cozy warm room. Caster and the rest of the staff made us feel special. It would have been better if we could stay longer.
- Elize (8/5): Very good -
- Théo (10/5): Exceptional - wonderful location. the staff is fantastic, the food is amazing.
- Ysabel (10/5): Like a gourmet fairy tale!! - The food was incredible, it felt like a Christmas dinner to me!
- Andrea (10/5): We’ll be back! - The best location! Our 2nd visit to This gorgeous, quaint cottage!
- Stephen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Esther (10/5): A special place to rest. - The staff were so lovely, every single one of the staff, even the gardeners, kept an eye out for our well being. This place is just so relaxing and peaceful, with views of the mountains over a pond, a destination in itself and it really is a place to rest. The room (we stayed in the garden room) was very comfortable, with a great fireplace, and an amazing comfortable bed and luxurious bedding. Cleopatra also prides itself on their gourmet food, and I'm always a tad skeptical, but the meals (dinner and breakfast) were well presented, thoughtful and most importantly, really delicious. That bread basket is scrumptious! I would be back in a heartbeat. The layout of the room necessitated the toilet and shower being in a different section from the main bedroom and the bath. Not a big deal. New hairdryer probably needed (I forgot to tell them).
- Cassandra (10/5): A brilliant get away, close enough to Durban and far enough away from everything else. - We love the quiet setting of the Farmhouse and also the peaceful time away from Durban. Nothing, it was absolutely fabulous.
- Prinita (8/5): Memorable stay - Awesome venue Lovely accomodation. The condition of the roads to the property are very bad with multiple deep potholes and gravel making the risk for punctures high. Wish we had been informed about this by the property.
- Vanessa (8/5): Very good - The setting is spectacular! The hotel is very comfortable and the staff were lovely. Tasty food. Love this part of the Drakensburg.
- Bheki (8/5): Very good -
- Gary (7/5): Enjoyable weekend away. - Lovely location, friendly welcoming staff, good food and wine. Warm and gregarious host/owner. We made it into a leisurely drive via Nottingham Road with stops at various midlands meander shops and eateries. Road to the guesthouse is absolutely shocking, more pothole than tar! (would not attempt it in a small/low slung car of if you do plan for a much longer travel time, you will have to go very slowly) Walking trails very poorly kept but manageable, ask about the conditions before you set off.
- Devin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andrew (10/5): We loved it - The food and the staff were wonderful. The attention to detail was really impressive and the staff Could not have been kinder. Nothing
- Eben (9/5): Superb -

- Frank (9/5): Wonderful holiday in a beautiful part of the Drakensberg. - River run cottage was excellent located with superb views of the mountains. A lot of attention was given to detail in providing for every possible need. We had our dinners in the main lodge and it was outstanding. The staff were v friendly and helpful.
- Martin (10/5): Escape to nature in comfort. - Stunning and tranquil scenery, nestled deep into the Drakensberg. Uniquely furnished and comfortable interior, with great outdoor spaces that take advantage of the views.
- Susan (10/5): Exceptional service, atmosphere and food. A lovely retreat. - Warm and helpful staff. They went above and beyond for us. Spectacular gourmet dining! Peaceful and beautiful setting. We liked everything. Roads in the area are rough, but that is to be expected in the countryside.
- Jade (8/5): We had a wonderful night away. Delicious food and beautiful place. - Was beautiful as always. Staff and management very friendly. So glad the road is being fixed…
- Bumblebee23 (6/5): Lacking the personal touches that we have come to expect. - The welcome on arrival was warm and friendly. The dinner was exceptional. The room was ice cold inside. My husbands electric blanket didn’t work. Mine had a huge lump where the plug point was. No blanket on the bed. No towels at the bath. No travel set toiletries like cotton buds and cotton balls as expected for the stars and price. No little touches like a chocolate on the pillow. It is those little touches missing
- Dharshana (10/5): The best ever - Everything from the location to the food the suite the bed the peace the staff nothing short of absolute perfection All was perfect
- Andrew (9/5): Tranquility and hospitality. - Lovely personal friendliness from the 3 main staff we dealt with. Lovely tranquility with places to sit inside and outside near the water. Useful 6km hiking trail that showcases the foothills.
- Mami (9/5): Superb -
- Keith (9/5): Superb -
- Rajendran (10/5): Exceptional - Exceptional food! Amazing scenery and walks within close range Starry skies on cloudless nights were incredible The roads to and from the hotel were challenging, especially after the rain! Won't stop me returning when I'm next in the country but I'll get a 4-wheel drive car the next time!
