Attention given to detail.

Loved our stay. There was a few noisy customers, but realised it is a Friday night and people had been "kuiering". The room is really nicely laid out, staff friendly, lovely breakfast and very special lady Aletta that served us with a smile.

Netjies en goeie bestuur.

Diens was uitstekend. Die bestuurder het ons baie mooi gehelp al het ons funksie laat verloop. Ons kon nie ontbyt bywoon nie so 'n wegneem-ete was gereed in ons kamers. Kamers is netjies en skoon. Sal net melk in die yskas waardeer en WiFi was swak in die kamer. Beveel die gastehuis aan.

Neat and good management.

Service was excellent. The manager helped us very nicely even though our function was delayed. We were unable to attend breakfast so a take away meal was ready in our rooms. Rooms are neat and clean. Would just appreciate milk in the fridge and WiFi was poor in the room. Recommend the guest house.

Onderskeiding! Stil en rustige omgewing, ruim kamers, 3-4-6-8 bedkamers, veilige afgemerkte parkering met dieselfde naam as die eenheid, bv. olifant of luiperd. Die sleutels van die eenheid het ook 'n afstandsbeheerde drukskeutel om die toegangshek oop en toe te maak vir voertuie.

Die beplanning, ontwerp en landskapargitektuur van Aark Guest Lodge en die erf is professioneel gedoen en afgewerk. Die indruk wat ek gekry het van die konstruksie daarvan en waarskynlike gedeeltelike aanbouings was vir my die ekwivalent aan vliegtuigkonstruksieprotokol. Verskeidenheid van langwerpige skraal vlagpaaltipe bome kom voor op die terrein, o.a. Yuka-langwerpige palmspesies, moontlike Witstinkhout en ander tipe bome het hoog bo die dakke uit getroon. Gepaard hiermee is die houtplatform loopoppervlaktes op eerste vloervlak met verniste splitpaal handrelings, dit het my verbeelding aangeryp en onmiddellik my gedagtes weggevoer na die houtkonstruksietreinbrug "The Bridge on the River Kwai". Die eetsaal het marine elemente teenwoordig gehad, soos die blou en wit strepe op die stoele die wit en swart kleredrag van die kelnerinne, breë houtraamvensters en wanneer ek by die ontbyttafel sit en uitkyk na die swembad het dit vir my gevoel soos ontbyt op 'n boot se dek. Ontbyt was standaard met vrugtedrankies, vrugteslaai, koffie, tee, graanvlokke en ander graanprodukte met melk en dan die hoofontbytgereg waarvan 'n mens kon kies van'n spyskaart. Die voorstad van Aark Guest Lodge is SE3 (South East 3) en naby Vaalrivier. Dit was heerlik om soggens vroeg in die buurt se strate te stap soos Olive-, Poplar-, Beefwood-, Koorsboom en Groendoringstraat, tussen ander stappers en drawwers. Die strate is stil en hoofsaaklik beperk tot die voorstad se inwoners en bestaan uit singels, doodloopstrate en T-aansluitings.

Distinction! Quiet and peaceful surroundings, spacious rooms, 3-4-6-8 bed rooms, secure marked parking with the same name as the unit, e.g. elephant or leopard. The keys to the unit also have a remote-controlled push button to open and close the entrance gate for vehicles.

The planning, design and landscape architecture of Aark Guest Lodge and the yard has been professionally done and finished. The impression I got of its construction and probable partial additions was to me the equivalent of aircraft construction protocol. Variety of elongated slender flagpole type trees occur on the site, e.g. Yuka elongated palm species, possible White Stinkwood and other types of trees towered high above the roofs. Coupled with this is the wooden platform walking surfaces at first floor level with varnished split post handrails, this caught my imagination and immediately took my mind to the wooden construction railway bridge "The Bridge on the River Kwai". The dining hall had marine elements present, such as the blue and white stripes on the chairs the white and black clothing of the waitresses, wide wooden framed windows and when I sat at the breakfast table looking out at the pool it felt like breakfast on a boat's deck Breakfast was standard with fruit drinks, fruit salad, coffee, tea, cereal and other cereal products with milk and then the main breakfast course which one could choose from a menu. The suburb of Aark Guest Lodge is SE3 (South East 3) and close to Vaal River. It was lovely to walk early in the morning in the neighborhood's streets such as Olive, Poplar, Beefwood, Koorsboom and Groendoringstraat, among other walkers and joggers. The streets are quiet and mainly restricted to the suburb's residents and consist of single-lanes, cul-de-sacs and T-junctions.

Baie rustig en waarde vir geld.

Ons het heerlik gebly en dit is regtig waarde vir geld en het dit waardeer dat hul my en my kinders se kamers langsmekaar gesit het. Ek beveel net aan dat hul dalk elektriese komberse op die beddens sit in die winter en ook dalk kan voorsiening maak as 'n gas te laat is vir ete. Verder het ek baie lekker gebly en sal ek weer daar bly.

Very peaceful and value for money.

We had a lovely stay and it is really value for money and appreciated that they put me and my children's rooms next to each other. I just recommend that they maybe put electric blankets on the beds in the winter and also maybe make provision if a guest is late for dinner. Other than that, I had a very nice stay and will stay there again.

Baie netjies.

Verblyfplekke was ideaal, die ontbyt het egter baie lank gevat, en was yskoud.

Very neat.

Accommodations were ideal, however the breakfast took a very long time, and was freezing cold.

Rustig, maar dit waarvoor jy vra is buite werking.

TV, DStv en Jacuzzi was buite werking. Spesifiek gevra vir kamer met Jacuzzi. Die rustigheid was fantasties en het 'n heerlike ontbyt gehad. Kan wel aandag gee om kamers skoner te maak, bv. spinnerakke agter TV.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Calm down, but what you're asking for is out of order.

TV, DStv and Jacuzzi were out of order. Specifically asked for room with Jacuzzi. The tranquility was fantastic and had a delicious breakfast. Can pay attention to making rooms cleaner, e.g. cobwebs behind TV.

Aark Guest Lodge 's response

Hallo,

Baie jammer daar oor maar ons het 24 uur diens en jy kon net geskakel het dan sou ons julle kom wys het hoe werk dit.
Alles is in werkende toestand daar was dalk net iets wat jy nie reg gedoen het nie maar ons sou kon help.

En met ons vreeslike mooi bebosde tuin is daar maar altyd n ou onwelkome gas in van die kamers.
Ek verseker jou ons maak ons kamers elke dag baie mooi skoon, soos jy kon sien.

Ek het ook nerens n boodskap gekry dat jy n Jacuzzi gevra het nie.
Wil julle graag weer nooi vir n aand as julle die kant toe kom.

Skakel gerus.
Lekker naweek

Dit is voorwaar 'n baie netjiese gastehuis en naby aan alle besienswaardighede en besighede!

Kan slegs 'n aanbeveling maak dat daar paslakens op die beddens gesit word. Die platlakens wat oor matrasse gesit word, veroorsaak dat ons in die nag die bed moes regtrek. Verder was dit 'n uitstekende gastehuis en sal dit aanbeveel word.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

It is truly a very neat guest house and close to all attractions and businesses!

Can only recommend that fitted sheets be put on the beds. The flat sheets that are placed over mattresses cause us to straighten the bed at night. Furthermore, it was an excellent guest house and would be recommended.
