We loved our stay here. We stayed in Sentinel Rm. 4, which was large and comfortable. The views from the lodge are fantastic. We ate breakfast and supper each night at the lodge restaurant and were happy with our meals.
Like most visitors here, we were here to hike to the top of Tugela Falls via the chain ladders. The hotel handled the logistics for us--the transport to the trailhead and packed lunch.
The next day, we had a massage at the spa located on the property, which was also amazing.
The hotel is in a great place for walking and has a beautiful aspect. The rooms are fairly standard with a good bathroom but fridge or tv. The hotel provides a good breakfast and food throughout the day and it is very good value. There are options to hire guides for mountain walking if you’re new to the area.
Fantastic place for hiking in the area such as Tugela falls

A good starting point for walks.
The Sentinel room was nice with a good outlook to the mountains.
The food in the restaurant was not really special.
We wifi in the Sentinel room was very poor.
Very unique place to stay if you are hiking in the area. Our stay was very brief, arriving on one night and checking out and hiking the next day. The staff was great, assisting with transportation and packing a lunch since we would be missing breakfast. The room was very comfortable sized. Would recommend a side with a view of the mountains if you are staying a bit!
The bed had bugs. The sheets were not clean. The bathroom floor had tufts of hair everywhere.
The restaurant hardly had food. Each time we chose a meal we were told that it wasn't available.
Fantastic views, and the best place to start the hike to Tugela Falls. Very quiet. The only sounds at night were the sounds of the horses eating grass.
Excellent breakfast. The road to the property is paved, but the road from there to Sentinel Carpark is definitely a rock crawl and best left to a transfer by the lodge.
Note that there’s a fee to get to the property (save your receipt for the way out as they ask for it).
There is also the transfer fee and hiking fee.
Also, the queen size bed is German style (2 mattresses shoved together, each with separate bedding).
Chambre avec vue panoramique sur la montagne.
Hébergement dans un site naturel.
Le restaurant est correct
Lieu de rendez-vous pour prendre les 4x4 qui amènent au départ du Trail : le Sentinel.
Excellent emplacement pour réaliser le sentier vers sentinelle Peak. Personnel très accueillant et site grandiose. Nombreuses autres randonnées dans la région du Royal Natal Nat Park
Wunderschön gelegen, Sonnenaufgang direkt vor der Tür. Frühstück war sehr abwechslungsreich und das Highlight war die Wanderung mit 4x4 Anfahrt zum Amphietheater.
