The Nest Drakensberg Mountain Resort Hotel

The meals were great. The log fires in the evening kept us warm while we enjoyed our dinner . The hotel reminded us of an old country inn with all the modern amenities, which we had been looking for. The owners personally greeted us every morning at breakfast, which showed that they cared about their guests.

The hotel offered a traditional Berg hotel experience including Breakfast, 4 course plated dinner and morning and afternoon tea. It was the holiday season, so activities and entertainment where offered and the staff, particularly Vincent, our waiter during our stay, where amazing. the views from the hotel are exceptional and this is a really special part of the Berg.

The rooms are cosy and clean. Beds very comfortable. Rooms are nice and cool for the summer. Serviced daily. There is a TV with satellite but we didn't watch. Breakfasts are generous and very tasty. Dinner was 4 courses and very tasty, meals always hot and service brilliant. Our waiter, Vincent, was professionally friendly. Will absolutely return. Views from verrandah were exquisite. Very central to Monks Cowl hikes, cheese shop, chocolate tasting & brewery and the amazing Valley bakery with the best pizza ever.

We loved. every moment of our stay from beginning to end. From the cheerful, helpful smilingly receptionist to a comfortable clean room, good food, great staff. Awesome views whether you want to just relax or be active The Nest has it all. We felt welcome from when we arrived. Made friends with guests who have been returning year after year so what does that tell you😊 we'll be back. Highly recommended.

The Nest is an older property but has all the comforts. Rooms were okay and had extra comforts like underfloor heating and electric blankets. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was excellent. Staff are excellent and go the extra mile in every way. Mzwa was brilliant!! We also enjoyed that the location is quite central and has a lot of activities on-site. On-site we went for a massage at the SPA, played tennis, bowls, ping pong ball, did archery and went for a walk. Off site we did a canopy tour, horse riding and went for cheese, chocolate and beer tastings.
