Set inside Addo, you get 5 star service, and knowledgeable game guides who zero in on your individual needs. Lots of elephants, kudu, zebra, and a mating pair of lions made for outstanding sightings.

This was an amazing place to stay in. How ever, the dinner which the establishment marketed as “gourmet” was a bit disappointing.. nice but nothing special, or that “wow” effect which you would expect from a gourmet meal. A bit unimaginative.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at the River Bend. The staff were friendly and helpful. Darlington was our Ranger for the Game Drives, who is very experienced, knowledgeable and very pleasant. During our stay we were lucky to see four of the "Big Five" and enjoyed each Game Drive.
The furnishings at the River Bend are in need of some TLC; furniture is worn, the bathroom towels old and areas such as the the library need a good dusting- we found "coffee-table" style books coated in thick dust. It is has a "faded glory" colonial style, which needs updating to make it luxurious.

We stayed at River Bend Lodge with another family. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The game drives were amazing and we were lucky to have some good sightings . Our game ranger was extremely knowledgeable and full of fun facts which kept the children entertained.
Our room was a little tired and the water pressure wasn't great would be our only complaints .
Overall we had a very enjoyable stay.

We just got back from a two night stay.. great rooms, lovely food. Really friendly staff, excellent safari guide. Maybe a few more up to date toys in the kids play room would be nice.

Amazing place with a real luxurious touch and attention to detail regarding service. Would love to come back and stay longer although it is pricey. Dinner and wine was very good value though. We had honeymoon suite with own private plunge pool and outside shower. Loved watching elephants at the watering hole.

Wundervolle Lodge im Addo Nationalpark. Es lässt sich jedoch nicht verbergen, dass der Zahn der Zeit nagt und an der einen oder anderen Stelle renovationsbedarf herrscht.
