Enjoyable Mimosa Lodge
Receptipn staff were friendly an the room was as described. We enjoyed the balcony. Dinner was excellent and the night's rest was comfortable and cozy. Breakfast the following morning was a pleasant surprise. Very well presented and very enjoyable - the perfect way to start the day.

Never again
It was a freezing weekend and we were looking forward to our time away. After a promising friendly check-in it went downhill from there. Thin duvet with summer sheets, “aircon” warned about 5cm in front of it, water in shower was not a good pressure in the one, and on the other it fluctuated between warm and cold, remaining cold to the point where I could not finish washing my hair in the morning - we checked out after one night. Needless to say there was a no I cancellation policy so we had to pay for another night elsewhere. But it was still worth it.

Individual style and great comfort
Welcoming, stylish hotel on a central street in Montagu. We had a spacious, comfortable room in a separate building overlooking beautifully planted, peaceful gardens. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was impressively large, and the breakfast was fabulous. All-in-all, a fantastic hotel with wonderful service.

Great service and restaurant
The hotel is great. The staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. The hotel has an award winning restaurant, which serves excellent breakfast and dinner at reasonable prices. The only downside is that there is no internet connection in the garden suites. If you need internet ask for a room in the main building (which are also very nice). Wifi is free.

Dissapointing
A very Dissapointing hotel easily the worst out of the 8 we stayed in SA. The owner was unfriendly and we felt most uncomfortable. The hotel is tatty our room was dark with no window in the bedroom. Anywhere that serves one rasher of streaky bacon and half an egg scrambled for breakfast does not deserve our custom. Avoid this one.

Mimosa Lodge - Montagu
Stayed one night at this fantastic hotel in Montagu. Large designed rooms with a fantastic restaurant. The hotel also has their own wine brands. Can highly recommend this hotel. However, Montagu is a bit off the normal tracks, but as it is actually part of the Robertson wine district it is well worth a visit.

Mimosa Lodge in Montague South Africa
Charming accommodations on Route 62 in South Africa. After a beautiful drive through the mountains in this region it was a relief to arrive at the Mimosa Lodge where the staff was expecting us and our rooms upgraded and ready for our weary bodies. Ask for rooms 16 or 17 if you go because they are in the back of the facility where is was is quiet and peaceful. The lodge has several beautiful paths between bungalows and inviting setting areas to relax and enjoy the lush vegetations with many a picnic or bottle of wine. Breakfast was limited but tasty. Mimosa Lodge is centrally located in this small historic town and convenient to several excellent restaurants within walking distance. I would stay again if I am ever back in the area.

Eine große Enttäuschung
Seit vielen Jahren war die Mimosa Lodge auf meiner Watch und Wunschliste. Die erste Ernüchterung war das Zimmer No. 10. Ich hatte das Gefühl in einer Gefängsniszelle zu sein. Ein Zimmer ohne Fenster und dies auch noch zur Straße. Da ich lt. Aussage eines Mitarbeiters der wohl einzige Gast war, war ich von diesem Zimmer mehr als enttäuscht. Die nächste Enttäuschung war das Abendessen....... der Koch schien frisch verliebt zu sein, denn mit Salz wurde gar nicht gespart. Die Nachtruhe wurde durch Straßenlärm dann doch unterbrochen, aber das lies nun leider nicht mehr ändern. Das Frühstück war leider auch nichts - für ein so hochgelobtes Restaurant sehr enttäuschend. Ich war froh wieder in mein Auto steigen zu können und weiterfahren zu können. Schade, ich hatte mich auf dieses Haus sehr gefreut....... das war nix

Hotel für kulinarische Liebhaber
Montagu liegt toll gelegen in Mitte einer Berglandschaft. Die Mimosa Lodge ist vor allem für kulinarische Liebhaber eine exzellente Übernachtungsmöglichkeit. Das Nachtessen mit Winbegleitung lässt keine Wünsche übrig. Zum Zimmer: wir hatten das Classic-Zimmer gebucht und hatten auf Grund der Bilder etwas mehr erwartet. Unser Zimmer war unterteilt und der Schlafteil direkt gegenüber der recht hellhörigen Eingangstür. Für eine Nacht war es ganz ok. Typ: würde zukünftig eher die teurere Kategorie wählen. Gesamthaft ein schöner Aufenthalt, da das Nachtrssen einfach überragend war.

DIE Adresse für Gourmets an der Route 62
Seit bald 10 Jahren gehört der regelmässige Besuch der Mimosa Lodge bei unseren Südafrika-Reisen mit dazu :-) An der schönen Route 62 gelegen, bieten sich vor hier aus zu jeder Jahreszeit herrliche Ausflüge, Bike- und Motorrad-Touren, Passfahrten, Weintouren u.v.m. an. Am Abend rundet dann jeweils ein ausgezeichnetes Dinner und ebenso auserlesene Weine aus der hauseigenen Winery den Tag ab :-) Die Bedienung ist sehr herzlich und freundlich und spricht sogar teils "Züridüütsch" !

Schweizer Gastfreundschaft und tolles Essen
Die Mimosa Lodge liegt zentral mitten im Zentrum von Montagu und verfügt über eigene Parkplätze. Die Zimmer verteilen sich auf mehrere Gebäude. Neben dem Hauptgebäude verfügt die Mimosa Lodge noch über ein weiteres Gebäude im mit Zugang vom Garten her, wo auch ein Swimmingpool und BBQ Grill zu finden sind. Empfangschef Bernie und die anderen Mitarbeiter an der Reception haben uns herzlich empfangen und uns wurden zwei grosszügige Gartenzimmer zugteilt, welche individuell und zweckmässig eingerichtet waren. Alle mit TV und Bad/Dusche. Besonders Wert wird in die Liebe zum Detail gelegt. Am Abend haben wir im hoteleigenen Restaurant gegessen und uns für das "Wine und Dine" Paket entschieden. Das köstliche, kreative Essen (zubereitet von Schweizer Köchen), der Robertson-Wein und der aufmerksame Service war eine spezielle Bereicherung und trug zu einem unvergesslichen Aufenthalt in der Mimosa Lodge bei. Das Besitzer Ehepaar Bernhard und Fida Hess und Bernhards Vater Sepp sind tolle Gastgeber und kümmern sich mit viel Engagement und Leidenschaft um ihre Gäste in der Lodge. Schweizer Gastfreundschaft in Montagu. Wir empfehlen die Mimosa Lodge und das Abendessen gerne weiter.

Lovely hotel in a lovely setting
Lovely hotel in a lovely small town. Nice to stroll around and good hiking in the vicinity. Had a very nice room, Garden suite, (were upgraded). Nice staff. Good food but perhaps a bit overpriced. The same glass of (own) wine that cost R 55 at the hotel cost considerably less at a different restaurant in town. All in all we were very happy with our stay and can definitely recommend Mimosa Lodge!

Not a 4 star, but nice
The staff was very friendly and service minded. There is a nice garden with a small pool which must be a heaven during the summer. We were a bit disappointed when we arrived and saw the rooms, they were not as expected. Furthermore, there was a terrible noise during the night, probably caused by a water pump or pressure tank or something of the like.

On peut trouver mieux
Que dire de cet hôtel? Nous sommes restés 2j en famille au Mimosa Lodge, 4 etoiles... Notre chambre familiale, au bout du charmant petit jardin etait vaste et relativement confortable. Un problème: pas de TV dans la chambre. Vous penserez peut être que c'est un détail ou que c'est une bonne nouvelle...Venez donc plutot a Montagu et vous comprendrez ce que capitale de l'ennui veut dire. Nous n'avons malheureusement pas pu profiter de la "superbe cuisine" (telle quelle est annoncée) car les prix de 290 rands/pers sont tres elevés pour l'Afrique du Sud et qu'en famille, avec des enfants de 6 et 8 ans, la formule semblait inadaptée. On ne nous a d'ailleurs pas proposé de menu enfant. Accueil : passable, internet = 0 (ce qui n'est pas normal pour un hotel de cette catégorie) Verdict : On peut trouver mieux.
