ANEW Hotel Hilton Pietermaritzburg

10/10 Excellent

"Such friendly staff made the stay that much more enjoyable."

Biggy Best Cottages

8/10 Good

"Location and grounds were lovely. Room was advertised as the "Stables Suite", but it was very small. We had to go outside and into another locked room to access our kitchenette. Front desk staff was very dry and not welcoming. She did not seem to like her job. Breakfast started 45 minutes after advertised. Listing and signage say "breakfast, lunch and dinner", but they only serve breakfast. Bed was very old and creaky. Lots of potential. Needs TLC."

The Hilton Bush Lodge

8/10 Good

"Kettle was dirty inside, and dead spiders left on the walls after being sprayed with doom... a small stove would be nice as will a braai /fireplace outside Otherwise, lovey and will be back"
