Reviewers Mention About The Blades

The Blades offers well-maintained rooms with spacious and beautiful bathrooms. The balcony provides good views, and the food is delicious. However, the management struggles to control noise levels af (Read More)ter hours, which can be disruptive to guests. Some visitors enjoy the fireplace in the middle of the room, making it a great choice for a winter getaway. The service is excellent, and the food and rooms exceed expectations. The location is near a river and offers picnics and romantic dinners, but could benefit from more marketing.

Will definitely visit again it was a nice place

The breakfast was nice

The rooms could do with a bit of maintenance as the bathroom ceiling was not in a good condition.

Place and location has good potential, they can work on cleanliness and remove warn out furniture u

The food was good. That's as good as it got.

The rooms have dirty carpets and furniture, not good for someone sensitive to dust especially not a child, as the carpets carry all that dust. I'd score the place 3/10 for hospitality. We ended up checking out a day before our actual checkout day as we were highly disappointed.

Friendly staff, especially Mr Mabhena

It took them almost 30min to bring the ironing stuff after I requested. I ended up wearing other stuff because now I was late. I had to call twice
