I stayed at "Notties" as the locals call the old dear of a hotel for one night, with my 15 year old daughter, on our way to the Drakensberg, for a dad-daughter adventure trip. Having read other, somewhat negative reviews (in need of renovation, old, dilapidated, etc) I did not expect much when we arrived on a cold, rainy Thursday... More

We stayed over a weekend for a friends wedding celebration. The ambience was rustic country and the dinner was pub style meals. The pre- wedding event was hosted at their dining rooms. I felt the rooms were quite pricey for the locale and quality of the rooms. I appreciated the age of the hotel and part of the ambience was... More

We have been here on a few occasions, a nice stop over on the way down to the coast. This time, we took our son and his partner and my daughter. Son's comment, "it is not the ghost that keeps you awake, it's the damn bar!!" this at 2.30am, we went to his room, my goodness, nobody could sleep with... More

What a delightful little gem, full of character that evoked memories of stays in small family hotels in Europe. The staff are clearly a "family" who value the guests and were a pleasure to deal with. Both our dinner and breakfast were delicious. Definitely we would stay again.

Although this hotel has a lot of character, we had a very bad experience staying there. We stayed in the first two rooms, room 1 and 2, practically right next to the reception and bar area which only closed at around 3am each morning. Needless to say, we had very little sleep due to the noise from the bar and... More

Not informed during reservation of the pub. Kept awake till 3 am on Saturday and 2 am on Sunday due to pub activities. Reception unmanned during night. Complained after first night of stay - nothing done. Compared to other hotels (eg Garden Court umhlanga), Notties is severely overpriced. Does not have the location, service, meals, comfort, maintenance, bathrooms, security and... More

The hotel is not in a great location. The rooms are ok but the bathrooms dismal. I think one would stay here only to get the "olden days" experience. The service was quite good and we had a really nice Pizza when we ordered room service.

My husband and I had a lovely weekend away at the hotel and enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere. The food at the hotel was delicious and I would highly recommend the breakfast. Lovely friendly staff. Thanks

Friendly staff, good food, comfortable rooms. Rooms could do with a bit of paint and new grouting in the shower but - overall - very clean and I'll easily stay there again. Good base for Midlands Meander.

We recently stayed at the Nottingham Road Hotel for one night - what a wonderful experience. So different from the normal boring hotels - if you are looking for something special, this is the place to stay. Even though the Hotel needs a bit of TLC, the room was clean and comfortable, food was great. We will definitely stay there... More
