    Unusual venue and definitely worth stopping by, including a visit to the restaurant. There are cute little shops to visit too. But it’s interesting to see the eccentric architecture and mix and mashup of different things, that I didn’t quite understand.

    Nice place for chilling and event. Restaurants serve good food, but it takes us 3 hours to have our first bites. Although we order first,they serve other tables first.

    Most interestingly designed and laid out venue. A good restaurant and various nice shops. All feels rather upmarket with a unique twist

  • 2/5 Sara S. 7 months ago on Google • 4 reviews
    First off the only thing good were the drink bar and the view but the waiter took an hour and a half to give us our food and when they finally gave us the food they didn’t even say sorry for taking so long. I definetly recommend the place just not the restaurant

  • 5/5 Mark B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great view and amazing stone art. Good, very reasonable priced

    Even if there is not an event on, if you're in Swaziland or even in nearby Mozambique or South Africa, you should stop by House on Fire simply for the visual experience (especially if you are just visiting in Africa). The beautiful mosaics, the intricate layout and unique architecture alone make it worth the trip, not to mention exploring the sculpture-filled grounds and shops and taking in the gorgeous views of the Ezulwini Valley. Malandela's restaurant is also there and you can have lunch or dinner and make a day of it. Special events are staged there including concerts and art exhibitions, and the House's website lists schedules...or you can arrange to hold your own special event there, such as a meeting or party, by contacting them. There is even a B&B on the grounds, so if you want to make a day trip you can stay overnight and not have to make a long drive home the same day. My wife and I visited for the first time last weekend and took photos, and look forward to returning for more interesting experiences.

    Bushfire festival was held here and it was an amazing experience. There was enough parking for day visitors and campers. There were unique food stalls that got your mouth water. The music was so diverse and it was beautiful to see everyone enjoy the live performances. My only complaint was the Wi-Fi connection was poor. I'm definitely coming back next year
