Check in process was excellent, Reception looks very good. Dining area excellent. Rooms are clean but the furniture is very old and having some cracks. Entrance door including locking mechanism is also old. The room that i chose was the deluxe room but its not deluxe at all. I paid a premium for that room i.e. R3950.00 per night but it doesnt deserve that price yet its 4 Star rated. I doesnt deserve the 4 Star rating but 3 Star. The facilities at the hotel are great.

Hotel Rooms needs serious upgrade especially furniture

The room was the filthiest i have ever seen. There were rats in my room and when enquired the manager said apologies this is very coomon here. So you pay a hefty price for sharing rooms with rats . These guys make so much money out of us and give us crap service in return. 

Living with Rats 

Lovely resort, with lots of activities on-site and close by. The canoeing on the dam was a highlight with many species of birds to photograph. Games room could be upgraded with more options for cold days. Housekeepers were very thorough in their cleaning and all was well maintained. We loved our stay and would definitely go back.

Had a lovely stay!

There are 12 timeshare chalets in the Drakensberg Sun complex. They are separate from the hotel in a wooded area and are self catering units. The units have a wonderful setting facing the mountains with large trees inbetween the chalets holding lots of bird life. Our unit can accommodate 8 visitors in two bedrooms, a loft and  the lounge. The units have two bathrooms and a kitchen and dining room, and a magnificent balcony with a table and a braai fireplace so that you can eat level with the top of the trees. The units are fully serviced by the cleaning staff. We ate at the hotel on one night and braaied for ourselves on others. 
You have to be prepared to climb a lot of stairs if you want to stay in these units as they are on the side of a hill and our unit has five different floor levels. ad a wonderful stay.

Drakensberg sun timeshare

Been to this hotel many many times.  The hotel feels cosy and comfortable but quite dated. 
Very little has changed over the last 20 years. The hotel could do with some upgrades. 
Good quality food and staff were extremely attentive and accommodating. We stayed 4 nights and didn’t feel that the service slipped. 
At checkout, were overcharged for dinner which was already included in the room rate. It took quite a long time for the manager to refund the payment.
Despite a few issues all was good. 
We always feel very at home at Drakensberg Sun.

Comfortable Hotel

we had a wonderful 3 night stay there during load shedding. The hotel is situated in the mountains in one of the most beautiful places in the WORLD. Service was exceptional, the food was excellent - highly recommended. 

Great hotel in one of the most beautiful places in the world

Arranged with Fezeka for interleading rooms becos of infants.confusion at reception.quite chaotic.infant with pram..room 202.Many flights of stairs.was really difficult to manoeuvre....reception staff not bothered...very incompetent .Worst of all...men at egg counter at breakfast  very curt and impolite.omelette without ham because hotel apparently caters for Muslim guests.so hindu guests font matter?5 month old has lunch at 12.request for  1 hr late checkout was grated with high handed manner despite us being frequent guest card holders....certainly not a report i would visit again



Disappointing Visit

Enjoy a sundowner or play a game of pool or darts at any of their three bars or eat a delicious meal at one of the three restaurants with yummy breakfast, lunch or dinner offerings. Drakensberg Sun Resort is a haven in the berg with hotel suites, cottages and conferencing facilities for business, leisure and pleasure. Set in a pristine natural mountain setting, guests can benefit from gorgeous mountain walks, trail hikes and runs, golf and other outdoor sports while breathing in.pure fresh air and vista's that go on forever. Luxurious offerings include a wide range of choices at the La Vita Beauty Spa as well a jacuzzi and heated swimming pool. So much to see, do and be part of! So much to love about Drakensberg Sun!

Epic berg getaway 

Called in to use restaurant and walks.   Unusually totally unhelpful staff-security manger rude to us and his own staff.   Need a lesson in modern hospitality.  Shame as lots of other fantastic experiences in the berg.   I would suggest management review  there security manager.   Won’t be returning

Called into visit.    Rude staff

Beautiful Resort ,clean and friendly staff. 
Food was great from breakfast to dinner.
There is a lot of activities to do with the kids in the area some walking distance from the resort. 
Hiking available to do almost everyday to different areas.
House keeping, not so great at all those carpets need to be cleaned in the rooms. We had a beautiful view of the mountains from our room.

Overall good place and we enjoyed our stay
