Cayley Mountain Resort
8.4 (43 reviews)

Cayley Mountain Resort ★★★★

📍 D184, Cathkin Park

"The road to the resort was terrible. The service was not up to standard. The room had no wifi at all. A sense of ****** was noticed on several occasions. On the positive side the rooms were clean and comfortable. Don't go if you don't have a suitable vehicle for the gravel road."

Three Tree Hill Lodge
10 (40 reviews)

Three Tree Hill Lodge ★★★★

📍 Rhenosterfontein Farm, Bergville

"An understated and unpretentious lodge with charming atmosphere and staff. The comfortable rooms had fabulous views. The battlefield tours were fantastic with Pierre, our guide. The lodge had Boer War memorabilia dotted around to add to the interest. The food was innovative and delicious and the wine selection excellent. A weekend to remember !"

Mont Aux Sources Drakensberg Resort
8.4 (4 reviews)

Mont Aux Sources Drakensberg Resort ★★★

📍 off R74, Bergville

"The resort is beautifully designed with the full view of the majestic Amphitheater, the very spacious, well equipped chalets are so peaceful and with good distance to the other chalets to keep your stay privately. The private braai and esp. the hot tub are a real plus and very enjoyable. Breakfast buffet is very good, the staff are so helpful and friendly, although the pancakes were very different on 2 different days (no critics there😀 - one world-class, one good average), good portions and fresh, maybe a professional coffee/espresso-machine could be a perfect addition. We did also a challenging hike up to Sentinel Peak/Tugela Falls via the chain ladders which were thrustfully and professionally arranged and accompanied by Lunga on recommendation by the General Manager, Anton, who is the mastermind behind all the organization and communication in the resort. With his life experience and communication skills he lifts all other staff, esp. at reception to a new level which made our stay really a highlight of our trip, thanks again!"

Cathedral Peak Hotel
9.0 (68 reviews)

Cathedral Peak Hotel ★★★★

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

"What a special place - we were married at Cathedral Peak 25 years ago and visited in August 2026 with my Parents and Son. We were lucky to have been there when it snowed which was awesome and so beautiful. The service from booking to our stay was fantastic. I really love that everything is how it always was - with excellent food, friendly and helpful staff, wonderful hikes, and comfortable rooms. Highly recommended. "

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 "

"WE WENT THERE TO CELEBRATE OUR 56TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. OLD BUILDING BUT EXCELLENT AMBIANCE AND NICE SHADED PARKING. THE ROOM WAS HUGE AND THE SHOWER WAS GOOD WITH NICE HOT WATER.

Aha Alpine Heath Resort Hotels in Uthukela DC

Aha Alpine Heath Resort

"I had the opportunity to stay for a week at aha Alpine Heath, nestled on the hills of the Northern Drankensburg. It was like heaven on earth. The place is beautiful, well kept, the food is great, with a mix of local traditional dishes to international cuisines. The challets style accommodation is perfect for family or for a romantic getawa or even business travel. There are plenty of activities onsite but ill recomment the hiking. The site of the lodge from one of the hills in the hiking trail is breathtaking. The staff also, they are great, they make you feel like you are at home with your brothers and sisters. I'll recommend Alpine Heath anyday for anyone visiting the Northern Drankensburg."

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."

"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."
