We didn't feel the need to leave Little Switzerland to further explore the area as everything we needed was at our fingertips.

In terms of fittings and furniture the chalets are somewhat inferior to those found at most other resorts in the area. The chalets need an interior revamp. "

"We had an awesome stay at Little Switzerland. The staff went out of their way at every turn to make sure everything operated smoothly. The chef should be commended as dinner and lunch was amazing. We did breakfast and one evening braai in our chalet and the kitchen was very well equipped. The unit was serviced efficiently and spotlessly cleaned. And lastly all the activities we booked for our children was presented perfectly and exactly on time. We will definitely be returning in future."


"The beauty of Sterk fontein Dam"

Razack Uddin

"Enjoyed the stay. Accommodation was comfortable, clean and cosy. However, don't like the idea of paying for wood. Many other places in the berg provide wood without charge. Becomes restricting to enjoy the cosiness fully. Otherwise certainly would recommend to friends and family."


"The place is really beautiful; it was awesome being away from the city"

Nomsa Mngadi

"Really friendly staff and good service. They need new blankets"

"Great facilities"

"The hotel needs further upgrades if it wants to charge the costs it is currently.We were disappointed as it did not match up to the hotel we stayed in the previous year in the berg -which costs a similar amount and has the same rating.The buffet is less than varied. The bar area is shoddy. The spa was shocking and the therapist was a misery. The rooms are cold. The kids area is dismal and my children did not want to spend any time there.It's missing all the little things that make it a quality hotel for the money you are paying.It is adequate.... if you want adequate for R3000 a night!

"This is a lovely place in the Drakensberge on the border of KZN and Freestate. It has some stunning views and friendly staff.

I got engaged at Little Switzerland on the passed weekend. The staff went above and beyond to make this event a special an unforgettable one. It was a lovely experience.

I would recommend Little Switzerland anyone that wants a lovely weekend away. With just 3 and a half hours trip away from Johannesburg it is just close enough to have a lovely weekend away without spending too much time on the the road.

"We enjoyed a very relaxing family get-away at Little Switzerland for a couple of days. Excellent service, clean and comfortable self-catering accommodation and amenities in and around the hotel are well maintained.

We were a little concerned about the health of the horses at the hotel - they seem to be malnourished (one in particular had protruding hipbones and clearly visible ribcage) and neglected. I do hope someone is concerning themselves with the welfare of these animals.

Apart from that, a wonderful stay. The restaurant serves excellent buffet meals, the kids are entertained all day long and the staff are friendly and accommodating all 'round.

We will surely be back."

The restaurant at the main gate was a huge surprise. We expected toasted treats, but instead we got the best meal of our holiday. I believe the chef was on Masterchef SA. That explains it. Superb grub!

Thanks for a lovely night."

"We thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent at Little Switzerland. We were there on a family holiday and were so impressed by the number of staff at the resort who seemed determined to do what they could to ensure that we had a great time. I can see how that would translate into excellent service of corporate clients. The time in this beautiful and professionally managed resort was well worth travelling over the short stretch of poor road over the Oliviershoek Pass. Taken slowly it posed no threat."


"Beautiful views"

(South Africa) Danie Grobler

"Chalets are a bit old but neatly maintained. The place has the most beautiful views from the top of the mountains and great walking trails. "

"Excellent facilities"

(South Africa) Rebekah Brown Brown

"Little Switzerland is a beautifully situated resort with excellent facilities for all. Pony rides were a hit with the kids. Staff could be more friendly but I suppose such a large resort will inevitably be slightly impersonal."

"Not only is the setting absolutely amazing, the staff go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. Our daughter fell ill on the weekend. When we went to the restaurant on the Saturday night, the staff prepared a special corner for her to lie down in. They brought her a pillow and blanket, without us requesting any of this. The food in the restaurant was top notch and perfectly prepared to our specifications. Never did we have to look around for our waiter when we needed him. The spa at the resort was excellent. We were treated like we were the only guests they had to tend to that day. The tranquillity of the resort made us think to stay another few nights, if only we could. We'll definitely be back."

Food tasty but not all that well presented e.g. beautifully cooked fillet just dumped on top of chips. Unacceptable not to have marmalade for breakfast! Enjoyed the stay very much. Oh, nearly forgot to say how much we appreciated the bottle of champagne presented to us by Management for our 61st anniversary dinner!"

"Have you ever experienced that feeling that you’ve just arrived in a little space of heaven after having driven the road from hell? Well then Welcome to the Little Switzerland Resort in the Drakensberg. If you’re looking for artificial comfort and opulence, then rather support the Hilton family trust or any other chain enterprise for that matter. The nature of this resort is very different.
With a history that spans over a hundred years, from having started as a Tea Garden to having transformed into the quaint chalets and hotel rooms with breath taking and majestic views of what feels to be the top of the South African landscape, this resort possesses an old world charm.
Led by two forces of nature - Mr and Mrs Mumby, supported by their exceptionally dedicated staff (the genuine smiling voice of Glen Hadden confirming your booking, to the wonderful Barbara and her hospitality and waiter staff in the restaurant, Little Switzerland, possesses a sincere warmth and an accommodating spirit which I haven’t experienced in many of the establishments we’ve been fortunate enough to visit over the years.
The Rooms and Décor: We had the pleasure of staying in their Honeymoon suite, overlooking the valley, and (of course my favourite) the stables down below! I found the décor to be in good taste – exquisitely crafted dark wood – not the stained attempts. The room was clean with a wonderful smell, which greets you as you open the front door. The spa bath in the bathroom was a godsend esp. after having returned from one of the numerous (and very well worth it!) hikes the resort has on offer.
The Spa: Nancy from the on-site spa offers one of the best Aromatherapy Body Massages ever (and believe me, with the demanding lifestyle of Johannesburg we’ve been to a few). The product they use in the spa is Gatineau – which is still one of my all-time favourites. I have a sneaking suspicion that Mrs. Mumby has something to do with that, one can see she is a true lady in every sense.
Food: We enjoyed it thoroughly  The old world restaurant with its high ceilings, offered a buffet with a wonderful range of options. An A’ la carte menu is also available, but we hadn’t dipped into that one, well not yet. Should you be lucky enough to experience the Mezze starter options, you will never want to have it anywhere else. Be very cautious of the desserts however, they chase you down and turn every possible rubber part forcing you to gain at least 5 kgs!
Activities on Offer: This resort has the capacity to cater for a myriad of needs - from the team building corporate with conferencing facilities, to the family with young children or the couple whom simply wishes for a romantic and relaxing weekend away. If you are fortunate enough to be able to share the experience with your children they can choose amongst pony rides, swimming, supervised quad biking rides or simply admiring the zebra which wonder in and amongst the buildings. From what I have seen the supervision has been tightened and the entertainment host is an exceptionally fit and patient young man gifted at entertaining both the young and the not so young. As an experienced rock climber and hiker, who knows the trails in this area like the palm of his hand, this young man will make any individual, or group enjoy the beauty this region has to offer. During summer months the resort even has water sports available on the dam!
More importantly this family shares their passion and the fruits thereof, with people whom are not always as fortunate. This fact in itself is a great indication of who and what they are, as well as what the heart of this resort entails.

"We arrived after 23h00 on Friday and were pleasantly surprised when we opened the door of our unit. The unit was spacious, clean, smelled lovely and nicely furnished. The daily service was a bonus! This was the first time from all the self-catering places we’ve been at that all the utensils needed in the kitchen was actually there! It was a joy cooking. The big fridge and stove was again a lovely surprise. With an amazing view both from the patio and the large upstairs balcony together with the stillness, tranquillity and fresh mountain air we were rejuvenated within three days and actually looked forward to commencing work on the Monday. Our teenage boys had a fabulous time with all the amenities available to them and we will most definitely be back."

"We came for only 4 days and the chalets were perfectly equipped, the bedding warm, and everything we needed was there. Each day we went for a walk, we were given a range of options, some longer through the forest and up the mountain, and some shorter to a gentle river and then relaxed by the fire or outside watching horses and zebras wonder around. So it was only 4 days but it was a really restorative time.
Thank you

"Wow! Wow! This is how I felt after a well relaxed weekend! The Hotel more than lived up to its promises, we had a fantastic time. The Deluxe Suite that we had was excellently furnished and was filled with warmth and made us feel immediately at home! Although it was a rainy weekend, the indoor atmosphere made up for us not being outdoors. The view from our room of the Amphitheatre was stunning and unbelievable. We highly recommend the SPA, very skilled and friendly staff that made the treatments that much more special! The meals were indeed excellent and although Buffet on both evenings, the variety was different and of very high quality, highly recommended! We truly had a memorable weekend and will definitely return!"

"We originally wanted to stay in the self catering chalets as we have a 7 year old daughter but management offered us alternative arrangements and as we wanted to visit we made the booking. WOW! It was great, good food and very friendly and helpful staff. Pony rides, Putt Putt and play station all provided (Thanks from Candice!) A stunning setting. Did not realise that there was a kiddies menu until the last day-Candice was not up to the indescribably delicious snails and mussels amidst other delicacies. Well done to the chef - he certainly knows what he is up to.
Not inexpensive, but all round excellent value for money.
Please can you perhaps extend the breakfast hours on a Sunday till 10h00.
Once again-Well done to the staff, we will be back, many more times!"
