Very good

Road is a bit bumpy to get there but wow well worth it if your looking for piece and unique experience. The food was nice but a little over priced i thought for such small amount of food. Otherwise amazing. Driving on the main road i saw just as many animals on the Addo land as what i did driving around it for 3 hours. Wish i'd stayed another day.
It was a nice place in the middle of the bushes, had it been 2-3 stars, I wouldn't have complained. We were there with our parents and stayed in the mud hut. There were very few pics of the mud huts and there was no electricity nor wifi in the room! And our parents were shocked.. also the walk from the huts to the main building is relatively far (10 min walk?)
I hope the hotel could be a bit better at pointing out the real condition of the rooms, which isn't really in the pictures and the rooms are definitely not 4 stars...

Rustic type accommodation
Comfortable but far away from Addo and all amenities. No meal options. Staff extremely helpfull and friendly
Manager Jonathan is very friendly. Hotel is located in amazing location, however unless you're driving a 4x4/SUV, you should arrive from the east via Paterson, and either way you should do the drive in the day. The building is beautiful and the rooms are nicely decorated. The only reason I gave the comfort 4/5 was because the pillows were way too big for me and bent my neck too much. As the owner continues to develop the hotel to include zebra and other animals on the premises it will truly be an amazing gem of a small hotel.
We were on a family trip planning on visiting Addo elephant park. Too late to get any lodging in the park, we picked this. Possibly a little bit too far from the park and maybe not a four-star hotel, but still it was worth it to see something other of SA than CT and Garden Route. Also the hotel manager and his staff was very friendly and helpful.
Arriving late makes (after darkness) make you question whether you are on the right road ... Also drive carefully - we met both one bok and a cow on the wrong side of the fence.
The views around the place is stunning! We went out to morning jog whereof on the mornings we did uphill. If you have the time - do that (or walk up and see the view)!
