Roy's Lodge and Safaris is a trusted business consisting of a lodge and various outdoor operations, including arranging off-site fishing, photographic and eco-safaris as well as 4x4 excursions.
Roys Lodge is an accessible and safe venue for conferencing, corporate and training break-aways as well as related activities. The layout of the Lodge ensures privacy and personal attention to one group at a time.
Roys Lodge offers accommodation and is suitable for travellers as well as larger groups. It is 15 minutes east from Pretoria, 50 minutes from Johannesburg and OR Tambo International Airport, but still right in the bush.
Our friendly staff are committed to give you the best possible service and ensure your stay with us is hassle-free. Our restaurant offers guests a set menu or formal events by arrangement. Enjoy a typical African dinner around the boma fire, or indoors in winter. A selection of wines is also available.
Come and relax in the distinctive pub, with the best big screen for all your sport and favourite programmes, bachelor parties and the like, or at the rock-face swimming pool, sun deck, boma and lovely bush garden. Alternatively, enjoy the hiking trail, with antelope and various species of busy bird life.
"The first impression of the place is not too good. The path to the room is very confusing. No direction signage. The floor of the wooden house/room was very uneven. There is no bin in the toilet/bathroom, the toilet spray bottle was terribly dirty, shower curtain filthy dirty and the toilet is stained. The bed, however, was very comfortable.<br/><br/>Establishments response: <br/><br/>Good day<br/> <br/>Thank you for your review.<br/>We apologise for any inconveniences experienced.<br/>We would like to address your complaints as follows:<br/> <br/>We do not have signage as we have 9 chalets in a semi-circle with one way in and one way out.We do however take time to check in each guest personally and walk them to their assigned rooms to limit confusion.<br/> <br/>We appreciate your recommendations for the wooden floors and bathroom. We are in the midst of renovations of the wooden flooring.<br/>If our bathroom cleanliness was not up to standard we apologise, but on inspection we did see a bin in the bathroom so on this point perhaps this was a misunderstanding.While we can always do better we do feel that terribly dirty is an unfair assessment of the shower. The toilet was cleaned but the borehole water causes stains that is difficult to remove. Our staff is always on call, if this was not on standard, we would have happily came in and cleaned it for you again.<br/> <br/>Once again we thank you for taking the time to make suggestions.<br/> <br/>Kind regards,"

"Loved the bushveld feeling"
"Very friendly and relaxing atmosphere"
"Ons het baie lekker oornag. Jammer dat die chalet nie klein yskassie gehad het nie. Sal ook lekkerder wees as elke chalet sy braaier het."
"Irma, I just want to thank you for your prompt response and the fact that you assisted us in booking in earlier due to our event. Our stay at Roys lodge was pleasant and I love the layout."
"Beds were very comfortable"
"Nice quiet place only thing the bed was old and uncomfortable with a hard board under mattress"
"Friendly service. If you simply need a place to sleep this can work. If you are looking for any form of lodge experience keep looking. Buildings dilapidated. Decor crying for a makeover, linen in need of replacement.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div>"
"Our stay at Roy's lodge was short but comfortable. The chalet's are neat and tidy."
