Pragtig en rustig.

Kuier saam met suster, broer en gesin. Rian het ons welkom laat voel en was baie gaaf en het vir ons 'n ekstra bed in die eenheid ingedra. Omdat ons vir broer gewag het om op te daag, het ons aandete na die eenheid laat kom. Ongelukkig was dit bietjie koud, maar nietemin baie lekker: 'n klein mikrogolf in die eenheid sal baie help. Heerlike ontbyt en kuier om die tafel die volgende oggend. Vir ouer persone stel ek voor dat daar handrailings langs die trappe na die verskillende kamers opgesit word. Ons het lekker gekuier en vriendelike diens van die personeel ontvang. Ek sal die hotel beslis aanbeveel!

Beautiful and peaceful.

Hanging out with sister, brother and family. Rian made us feel welcome and was very kind and carried an extra bed into the unit for us. Because we were waiting for brother to arrive, we had dinner brought to the unit. Unfortunately it was a bit cold, but very nice nonetheless: a small microwave in the unit would help a lot. Delicious breakfast and a visit around the table the next morning. For older people, I suggest that handrails be put up along the stairs to the different rooms. We had a great time and received friendly service from the staff. I would definitely recommend the hotel!

Goeie waarde vir geld as oornag akkommodasie.

Gasheer was hulpvaardig en het ons dadelik laat tuis voel - het selfs sjerrie aangebied teen die ysige koue en die kaggelvuur vir ons aangesteek. Kamers was netjies.

Ons het heerlik geëet en warm geslaap.

Die hotel se kok het ons met heerlike gekookte boerekos bedien. Die malva nagereg was so lekker gewees. Ons het ook heerlik warm geslaap, want dit was regtig koud daardie aand. Alles het hulle vir ons so gemaklik en rustig moontlik gemaak. Baie dankie.

Welcoming location for an overnight.

We stopped at Mountain Shadow Hotel for an overnight stop during our recent road trip. The hotel is on top of the pass, so a scenic drive to get there. It was very cold, but rooms are equipped with heaters and electric blankets. The main building has a fireplace to warm up the bar/dining area. Breakfast was served in a sun-drenched dining room which was lovely! They offered us a few options for dinner that night, which was more than sufficient. Friendly place to break our travels.

Breathtaking.

I give Mountain Shadow Hotel the highest recommendation. It's a gem standing proud at the start of a most scenic adventure. The hotel is delightful, feels like Christmas all year round. When packing, make sure you pack for cold nights as the rooms are very chilly but it enhances the experience.
