Misty Hills Country Hotel, Conference Centre & Spa

Beautiful location, being in the middle of a rainforest. World class facility

Incorrect pricing given at reception for carnivore restaurant. Was close to the generator that was very noisy.

The staff was so warm and welcoming and were willing to help with whatever I needed. The breakfast could have been better but it was alright. Over all, I love hoe beautiful the facilities are and I really appreciated how safe it was for me as a solo traveller. The spa treatment was exceptional!!! a very big thank you to them because that was an amazing experience.

Just the breakfast really and I do wish they had smart TV's but that us honestly not too big of a deal. I also do wish there was more activities to do on the property. I also wish the staff were about more helpful in letting me know about which activities I could do because I asked but the information was very vague

The location is awesome, amongst the trees, and golf carts to carry you around The staff was really exceptional Beds was very welcoming

The coffee shop /restaurant is sadly lacking in quality food considering the venue, and that there is really nothing else nearby for a light meal I understand not switching on the generator in the night, but there should at least be a candle or emergency light. I went to the bathroom at about 3 am, and just when I was about to leave, the power went off, it took me almost 20 minutes to get back to the bed as it is so dark in an unfamiliar room Very limited channels on the TV, almost as if it is the basic MNet, E TV, SABC 1-3. Surely you can afford a better bouquet

Misty Hills Country Hotel is a wonderful place to stay. The thatched-roof bungalows are spacious with lovely interior décor and furniture, and are laid out along many winding brick paths in a lush tropical setting with flowers, shrubs, and trees, some with botanical labels on them. Along the paths are many splendid African art carvings, statues, small flowing brooks, ponds, and beautiful scenic views. The grounds have been meticulously planned and laid out, as have the rooms and buildings on the many acres in this resort. Each room, dining area, meeting room, and the reception area are adorned with African art—sculptures, paintings, and historic artefacts/memorabilia, with windows that look out in to the tropical gardens and trees. The service is first class. The accompanying huge breakfast buffet has dozens of choices of fresh fruit, warm and cold meats, special dishes, cheeses, cereals, and pastries, with several people ready to cook any personal preference you may have, as well as table service in the large dining hall with its African motif surrounding you. Of course, the world-renowned Carnivore restaurant is on the Misty Hills grounds and is a real treat for those who enjoy a meal of game in a festive setting with meat delivered to your table on large skewers. There is also a nice dining room with a good lunch and dinner menu adjacent to the reception area. In every way, this hotel is great and a wonderful experience; we’re from Canada and have returned every time we’re in the Johannesburg area.

We liked everything.

Warm reception from the staff. Excellent scenery.

Poor WiFi service.

The reception was awesome. Friendly staff. The room was beautiful. They refilled our tea/coffee station to our satisfaction when we requested. Room service was quick and breakfast was great. We enjoyed white sheets and the bed was nice and big and soft. Because it was raining we were given an umbrella to walk to our car. The hot water was awesome....I usually enjoy taking a shower but this time around I enjoyed bathing ..the water was relaxing...The parking was safe for all the cars.

Everything was great. But the parking was too far from the hotel but cars were safe. The aircon didn't function properly it only stayed on 22degree Celsius even when we wanted to increase the temp as the room was cold due to rain but luckily the room had an oil heater and it helped. Really regardless of these minor things...I would go back to Misty hills....its a very calm peaceful natural environment.

Having someone to escort us to our rooms made it easier to locate them. Later in the evening we were also provided with emergency lights in preparation for the expected load shedding. Great planning on their part.

The parking was a bit far from the reception and the rooms. What helped is that once you check in, you are given a WhatsApp number, enabling you to request for a cart to pick you up and take you to either the Gin Box or Carnivore restaurants.

Tranquility and atmosphere was relaxing

we waited 1 hour at the Gin box for an order for 4…. we then asked then to send it to the room - as we had an evening dinner - with guests coming over to the Hotels restaurant after waiting another 45minutes -at our room - This now totals to 1h 45m waiting we phoned and canceled the food and drink order - as we were thinking- it’s now too late to eat anything- dinner would be in an hours time ,,,,,,, as we were cancellling the order - the food came…… which was not that great - a lot of deep fried food

Lunch was at the Gin Box! Massive burgers which led to us not having supper. Breakfast was tasty and very quickly served. Snacks at the Spa was delicious.

We arranged a special platter for the room which was tasty. One suggestion is to wrap the dried fruit separately because it made the entire platter taste and smell like dried fruit.

The room we stayed in was amazing.

The roomservice plates from previous guests were on the wall outside for our full stay. Some staff were fantastic but some very mediocre at reception and with service. We were not given any warning or notice that electricity and water would be off from 22.00 to 5.30... yet the staff lead us to believe that this was normal when we went looking for someone to help us at 5.00 am.
