Cayley Mountain Resort
8.4 (44 reviews)

Cayley Mountain Resort ★★★★

📍 D184, Cathkin Park

"We stayed there during one of the coldest weeks in June and had NO proper hot water for 5 DAYS. Only 2 people out of 5 could shower each day, the rest of us froze. We complained daily. And guess what? Nothing was done. Hendrick (Resort Manager) and Paseka (Front Desk Manager) were completely useless. They didn’t care, didn’t act, didn’t resolve anything. To "compensate" us, they sent a ridiculous WhatsApp offering a head and shoulder massage for 2 people. WE WERE 5! That’s not compensation — it’s an insult. We replied… and they’ve ignored us ever since. This was supposed to be a holiday. Instead, we spent our time chasing after staff who clearly couldn’t be bothered. We’re seriously angry and disappointed. 💬 And no, we don’t want another “sorry to hear about your experience” response. We want accountability and proper compensation. 🔥 Avoid Cayley Lodge. If something goes wrong, don’t expect help — because their management just doesn’t care. #TravelWarning #CayleyLodge #Drakensberg #HolidayFail #CustomerServiceFail #NeverAgain"

📍 Rhenosterfontein Farm, Bergville

"Could not fault anything whilst we were here. The food was excellent and the staff were so attentive. I would recommend this place to anyone. It was a long slog to get here but certainly worth the journey. A big thank you to everyone who made our stay so memorable."

Little Switzerland Resort by Dream Resorts ★★★★

📍 R74 Oliviershoek Pass Northern Drakensberg, Bergville

"We loved our 6 night stay. All the staff are so friendly and attentive from the minute you drive through the gate. We had the breakfast and dinner option and were pleasantly surprised each night with the excellent meals and variety. Our Mountain View room was extremely comfortable and kept spotlessly clean. We loved the hikes that start at the resort. No need to drive anywhere to do hikes. We can’t wait to go back and highly recommend this resort!"

Mont Aux Sources Drakensberg Resort
8.4 (4 reviews)

Mont Aux Sources Drakensberg Resort ★★★

📍 off R74, Bergville

"I booked three chalets (from Australia for family reunion in SA after 3 years) for 27 -29 December 2024 which turned out to be a disaster. Late check in (4-5 hours late), rooms were not cleaned, and toilet was not working. No wifi. I almost wanted to book an additional night or two, however did not. There was no offer to compensate the poor service and mismanagement of this facility, nor refund for delays and poor facilities. It's a pity that such a beautiful location is mismanaged and misrepresented. Trust and service will take time to re-build. Your future is not good."

Cathedral Peak Hotel

Cathedral Peak Hotel ★★★★

📍 R394 Cathedral Peak Hotel Cathedral Peak, Gaints Castle Game Reserve

"We decided at the last minute to sneak away from the madness and CPH was perfect as usual. Our favorite go to place for a reset and a recharge. The Staff are amazing, nothing is too much trouble, the rooms are perfect, and then there is the fantastic food. Thank goodness for the beautiful walks. We will be back again and again and always. CPH never disappoints. Thank you"

Royal Hotel Ladysmith ★★★

📍 140 Murchison St, Ladysmith

"We went for a Christmas Lunch the food was so tasteless, the only thing I enjoyed was the starters. Whooo the buttered chicken was terrible. The only thing that was better on their main meal was the pork and lamb the rest was horibble. I just wasted my money what Ana awful. Christmas I had😔"

Memra Guest House
8.0 (7 reviews)

Memra Guest House ★★★

📍 14 St Augustine Ave, Ladysmith

"We booked in for 2 nights on the 23rd and 24th of September. Our host Magda was warm and welcoming even at a 23h00 check in. She was so obliging and walked down to the guest room with milk, tea, sugar and coffee in hand to check us in. The room, kitchenette and bathroom was exceptionally clean. We were never asked for payment at any stage of our stay. I would highly recommend Memra Regards Charlton "

Montusi Mountain Lodge Hotels in Uthukela DC

Montusi Mountain Lodge

"We had a wonderful stay at Montusi Mountain Lodge and would definitely come back. The location is absolutely beautiful, surrounded by the stunning scenery of the Northern Drakensberg. It is a perfect place to slow down, enjoy nature and explore the area. We especially enjoyed the walks and trails around the property and the peaceful atmosphere of the lodge. What really stood out for us, however, was the exceptional hospitality and friendliness of the entire Montusi team. Unfortunately, both of our daughters became sick during our stay, but everyone was incredibly kind, caring and helpful. We felt very well looked after, which we especially appreciated while travelling with children far away from home. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable, the food was very good, and the whole lodge has a warm, relaxed and personal atmosphere. Despite our girls not feeling well for part of our stay, we have very fond memories of Montusi. A beautiful place with genuinely wonderful people, highly recommended for families and anyone visiting the Drakensberg. We would definitely return!"

Cayley Mountain Resort ★★★★
"Bad, expensive food, extremely bad roads, broken amenities, dirty swimming pools. Not a place I’d ever holiday again, especially when there are many, many places near there to stay for the same price or less. The staff seem to try and this place would be great if it was R350 a night, but it’s not. Good view."

Three Tree Hill Lodge ★★★★
"Our stay at Three Thee Hill definitely warrants a 5 star or 10/10 review….. from the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Melanie and Cheryl and showed to our lodge, which itself has the amazing views over the valley. We did an optional guided walk with Cheryl (the owner) which from the first steps was very special; we nearly stumbled into some Zebra and did a beautiful walk for circa two hours into the game reserve. Food that evening was excellent, as it was for the rest of our stay. Our main full day was spent with Pierre who is a walking history book on all things Spioenkop; his introduction over breakfast (wonderful again – surroundings and food itself) and his on-site explanations really brought the atrocities and mistakes of the battle to life; highly recommended for anyone with an interest into the past of South Africa."

The Nest Drakensberg Mountain Resort Hotel ★★★
"We decided on The Nest for a family reunion and we couldn't have made a better choice. Stuart and Shelley and all their staff were friendly, courteous and very helpful. As bowlers we also enjoyed playing on championship standard greens, expertly maintained by Theuns and his team (and Shelley you are a great bowls partner as well). The food was excellent and the accommodation was clean and comfortable albeit a little dated - but that just adds to the charm of the place. A great time was had by us all and hopefully we'll be back one day!"

Nauntons Guest House & Wedding Venue ★★★★
"Good, friendly service from all staff from reception to kitchen, clean comfortable room, easy to have dinner and not drive to town. Delicious food selection. The honesty bar is also convenient, and coffee station. The venue feels safe with security at the gate and the gardens are beautifully to have a early morning "

"We had a very good stay here - the staff were attentive, food good, chalets very clean. Fabulous location and walking. Only improvement would be start the hot tubs earlier - book them the day before so they are hot when you get back - and stir the water up. But great fun."
