    Fairly clean hotel, perfect rooms, perfect location in a quite area. Location really close to the restaurant and housekeeping, and the high mountains of the Drakensberg. Again, 5 minutes walk from Matatiele Museum.

    I got amazing value for my money at the Royal Courtyard. The rooms were spacious, well-appointed, and comfortable. The location was central and close to all amenities. The staff, especially Miss Mbali at reception and Noncebakazi during check-in, were incredibly welcoming and made me feel right at home.

    The breakfast option could be improved by offering a wider variety of choices.

    The hotel had well-designed modern interiors and comfortable, well-appointed rooms. the location was perfect, providing easy access to the town's busy areas. the air conditioning was effective and perfect during summertime.

    Security in the hotel was compromised, and the gate looked embarrassing. Some construction workers were all around the place.

    Our room at The Royal Courtyard was well-appointed and comfortable, with a modern interior design. The beds were particularly comfortable and we were pleasantly surprised by the effective air conditioning, considering the winter weather. The hotel also offers safe parking under a large roof near the entrance of the room, providing noticeable security in the central courtyard. Additionally, the location of the hotel was ideal for exploring the town.

    There were a few drawbacks during our stay. There were noisy people in the central courtyard during the afternoon and early evening, but the staff assured us that it was due to a conference.

    We stayed at a hotel that had a well designed modern interior. the room was comfortable, clean, and quiet with a particularly comfortable and firm bed. the staff was friendly, check-in was easy, and the location was central. the hotel provided tea and coffee facilities as well as ironing facilities.

    Breakfast was overpriced and we found a better and cheaper option elsewhere.

    The hotel is centrally located, making it easy to access the most important landmarks in town. The rooms are equipped with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. I particularly enjoyed the effective air conditioning system and the firm, comfortable beds. In addition, the hotel ensures that there is effective security inside the central courtyard, which made me feel secure during my stay.

    The Wi-Fi was weak and at times not working at all. The TV channels were limited and not very entertaining. I also found the breakfast to be overpriced, as I discovered a nearby eatery that offered better breakfast options for a much lower price.

    The hotel is located in a gated area, providing a sense of security. The rooms are spacious and clean, with amenities such as tea and coffee facilities and ironing facilities. The staff is considerate and helpful, ensuring a comfortable stay.

    The breakfast area is far and requires a dingy walk to reach it.
