Reviews from previous The Blades Hotel guests
“The Blades is one of our favourite work retreat venues. excellent catering and also lovely rooms. The best was the spa experience! The boma night braai is also a big YES for the social event during a work retreat. Very convenient for people not wanting to travel far but would like a lovely bushveld experience,” wrote Erna O on their TripAdvisor page.

I was on a business trip, arriving late and leaving early, so can’t comment on the bar or on the food generally, although the room service sandwich arrived promptly and was better than most.”
