Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Leuke, ruime slaap- en badkamer. Super vriendelijk en gastvrij!!! Goed ontbijt. Alles gewoon Super!!!
- Glen (4/5): Not so good - Our second visit was not at all. No dstv, faulty aircon, and at one stage there was no bread at breakfast.
- Tanya (8/5): Lots of improvement - We went there expecting the worst after reading a lot of bad reviews.To our suprise, the room we had was clean, it also ideal for our family. Water was warm, aircon worked, good channeks on tv. The best suprise was having both shower and bath options. Breakfast buffet was good. We used this place as our stop over, so we could tour around, and I would advise others to do the same. Phumzile, the receptionist, wss very nice and helpful. We left a packaage there, and it was sent to us the mext day.
- Brian (8/5): Was disappointed - I made a booking and had the option to pay on arrival but when l got there they had sold the rooms l booked. I had travelled all the way from Johannesburg and had children. Luckily there had extra standard rooms that l had to settle for because the family rooms l had initially booked had been sold to others without any communication. That was a bit disappointing .
- Thulani (2/5): Gatz guest house...thumbs down - Place is beautiful but doesnt match the hospitality. The service staff are not attentive, they dont deliver on what they have promised. They sit out in groups in the sun with no regard for the guests... stare and talk about guests. Our tv was broken and not working, the service guy spoke to us and spoke to us like we were his nephews or nieces...way too casual and still didn't fix the problem...when the manager offered that we use another room to access the television, he told the kids not to sit on the bed because we had been done a favour for. We stayed with that guy for so long, it felt like we were ay home on an inconvenient day with a maintenance guy...absolutely no boundaries nor professionalism, almost like the business doesn'tneed the money.
The breakfast wasn't ready on time...they hadnt cooked sufficient food for all guests. Most of our families ate at seperate times and the hostess didnt know how to respond to times it was going to take when asked by guests. We ingormed the manager that we were coming there because it was my son's birthday, going to Sun city on Sunday, no wishes were made and we took just over 2hrs with our now demanded food coming in drips and drapes...we were so dissapointed. What a waste of money on food and service.
The was a function the night before, we were not informed that there'd be one...so we had loud music the entire night umtil.the next morning. Staff is allowex to play loud music while preparing by the bar at all hours
- Ndumiso (10/5): Sun City visit - we had a grate weekend
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had a lovely stay at Gatz for 2 nights. We drove from here to Pilanesberg which can be reached within 20 mins. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, our room was clean and we had the most comfortable bed. Thanks again to the Gatz team!
- Neil (8/5): - The stay was good, but it was difficult having very little amenities. No microwave to heat left over food. It has a kitchenette, but only has a kettle
- Lufuno (8/5): - I enjoyed my stay, the service was great from the staff
- Verified traveler (2/5): Very unhygienic and messy - The staff were friendly and generally nice but didn't follow up on any requests at all for cutlery to new pillow cases (since the ones on the bed were full of make-up). The room was very dirty, used chewing gum was on the bedside table and shoe prints with dead bugs all over the walls. the toilet seat was broken and the toilet dirty. The place was dirty to a sickly level everywhere in the room, including the bed sheets. Almost wanted to sleep in the car.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was amazing
- Jesse Gerald (10/5): - Very good place; enjoyed the stay
- Verified traveler (6/5): False advertising - Not as advertised. Aircon not working properly makes noises. Showers hot and cold tap is not connected right. Cold is hot and hot is cold, luckily we could figure it out otherwise we would be showering in cold water for 4 days. Breakfast was terrible, cold and a shortage of food and juice. I will not recommend this place.
- Sally (10/5): Modern Guest house with professional service - the receptionist is such a professional and welcoming person who ensured our stay was the best. it was so lovely to find our car washed and it was done through out our stay. the cleaners where polite and breakfast was very nice the best unfortunately the waiters during breakfast where rude and ignored the guest except on the 27th we met esnath who was very polite even helped with the toaster that no one could help us with during our stay. the hotel is modern and the maintenance guys are always helpful and on call when needed with the reception ensuring all the support and services and available at the highest level.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Decent place considering the price. Staff does their best to help you in case of problems. Nice pool, bar and outside area. Rooms could use some maintenance but in all we enjoyed our stay here. The road to Pilanesberg is pretty bad though, but obviously can’t fault the guesthouse for that.
- Paulo (6/5): Suitable for over night stop over - Good place to spend the night if you are in the area, but do not expect much. You get what you paid for, which is basic accommodation however the room was clean and the bed was comfortable
- Kabelo (8/5): - the stay was great met our expectations
- Ronny (10/5): The guest house was very good - our stay was good, starting from the receptionist who was friendly and helpful, all the staff there were friendly and the place is clean. And it is in a quiet place
- Cornelis (2/5): - Kamer was redelijk maar de ontvangst en service waren niet geweldig. Zou hier nooit meer boeken.
- Simon (10/5): Quality of service - My stay was amazing and peaceful..
- Agnes (8/5): - Nice place to stay at. There is a little room for improvement when it comes to facilities, staff and service. Lives the daily free car wash though. Would go there again someday.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Unsatisfied - We were downgraded after we already paid on Hotels.com for a family room, so we were crammed into smaller room (that costs less than what we paid for). We requested a braai the day before we arrived, by email, but no effort were made to accommodate us. Other guests played very loud music till late at night. The free car wash and breakfast was great.
- Verified traveler (6/5): STAFF NEED TRAINING - IT WAS JUST OKAY
- Busie (6/5): - The property is spacious and tranquil, with friendly reception staff. The free car wash is a bonus.
The DSTV signal is poor, watching television was not an option. Due to the use of sceptic tanks, there is room for improvement of the lavatory facilities.
- Etienying (10/5): Hotel Stay Review - It was a very good experience
- palesa (10/5): - I really enjoyed it.They Gats employees were very friendly and helpful at the same time.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Not happy - Shower drain was blocked, I had spider bite inside the shower. Wifi was not working
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Wonderful
- Rajjay (10/5): Happy Stay - Our stay was very comfortable and the best thing was the view of the fruit trees and how spacious the venue was.
- Sbonelo (8/5): good - It was ok
- Verified traveler (6/5): Nahe Pilanesberg - Gatz Guesthouse für uns, um den Pilanesberg National Park zu besuchen. Hatte das Guesthouse vor unserer Ankunft kontaktiert, und alles hat prima geklappt. Beide Zimmer waren vorbereitet, als wir ankamen. Das Guesthouse liegt in einer Mangoplantage, was an und für sich schon einmalig ist. Die Zimmer sind sauber und im guten Zustand, geräumiges Bad. Das Frühstück ist sehr einfach, und nicht mir europäischen Standard vergleichbar, aber mit einer frisch gepflückten Mango dann OK. Extrawünsche nicht möglich, es gibt was es gibt. Ein grosser Pool, aber nicht eine einzige Liege. Sowie die zum Pool gehörigen Toilettenanlagen im desaströsem Zustand. Für Leute mit Sorgen um die Sicherheit, gut gesichert mit Zäunen und zwei Gates. Der Ort selbst ist am Rande einer riesigen Platin-Miene, und das nächste Restaurant 10 Minuten Fahrzeit entfernt. Zum Pilanesberg Park weniger als 20 Minuten. Vor der Abfahrt wurde noch unser Auto gewaschen, prima Service. Fazit, ein einfaches Guesthouse mit ehrlichen 2 Sternen, Preis-Leistung gerade noch OK.
- Chantal (10/5): Thank you - Absolutely fantastic, just very short. Staff where very helpful and friendly.
- Edgar (8/5): wonderful weekend at Gatz Guest House. - It was amazing experience. keep it up
- thabelo (10/5): - it was wonderful everything was above our expectations lovely breakfast
- Xavier C (6/5): Nice place, nice people, requires some improvement - Gatz is a very nice place with good quality rooms. Still require some improvement, we couldn't manage to get warm water for the shower the two days we've been there.
People are nice and try to help and accomodate but we've been promised some tea and coffe as we had an early moring start and didn't get this. Nobody was awake when we left the place.
- Celia (8/5): Back next year - We really enjoyed our one night stop over at Gatz, friendly, helpful service and good food made it great for us, the breakfast was the best thing to get me going ready for my 10.30 Golden Mile swim at Sun City. Thanks again and hopefully we will be back for stay and swim next year.
- Brandon (8/5): Aircon needed - It was a brilliant stay . The only thing I can moan about is that the aircon didn't work so the room was very hot. Other than that it was good
- MR RKA PATEL (4/5): definitely not worth the money - no staff to help when we got locked out of the room.
codes to room left opening at reception desk with no-one manning it.
rubbish security
staff rude
other guests parting until 2 am in the morning
bed uncomfortable
towels smelt
- Kathrin (8/5): Schöne Anlage, aber etwas abseits - Die Anlage ist sehr schön und landestypisch abgesichert. Das Zimmer war ausreichend groß und gut ausgestattet. Leider dauerte es sehr lange, bis das Wasser zum Duschen heiß wurde. WLAN war im Zimmer nicht mehr erreichbar. Umfangreiches Frühstück
- Annelie (8/5): - Well managed and free car wash. Staff is friendly and helpfull. Could do with Free Wifi. Value for money
- Ephenia (6/5): - stay was good, but there was no hot water
- Samkelisiwe (8/5): - It was totally awesome
