Weekend at Courtyard Arcadia
Pros:

Good stay. Everything was as expected and no complaints. Stage 6 load shedding while we were there, but the hotel obviously has back up power as we were not affected. Very convenient location for University of Pretoria as we were dropping our daughter off.

Lovely short-stay at Courtyard Hotel Arcadia
Pros:

My partner and I were here for 2 days and one night. (Had to be in Pretoria for a meeting monday morning). We arrived early in the morning and spent some time by the pool had a great night sleep then worked from the lounge the following day before heading back home. The staff have been incredibly helpful and attentive! We've enjoyed our stay fully!

The Hotel overall is lovely, well looked after. It is however an older hotel so some of the finishings are somewhat dated and could definitely use a bit of maintenance. This shouldn't deter you from having a lovely stay though!

Pros:

Booked through Expedia with no idea that we would, not only be given a room with steep steps only to find this out after being told by the reception that there were no steps then after the 3rd try a room with twin beds but obviously only set up for one person short glasses, no globe in second bedside light. No rails in to get in and out of the pool.
The staff assisting were pleasant helpful but could have done with more training and direction

Our stay at the Arcadia Courtyard was very pleasant. A beautiful historic building, lovingly restored and maintained. Very comfortable beds, good linen, and great pillows! The staff are always extremely courteous, and we will definitely go back to this establishment!

Excellent Base for Budiness Trip
Pros:

Travelling for business this was the perfect base for a productive trip. Excellent service all round. Had plenty of pleasant areas to work for all weathers. Architecturally makes a nice change from the more modern hotels. The architectural style is extremely well preserved. Would definitely stay again.

Adventures in Africa
Pros:

Beautiful old style very well kept Dutch mansion with lovely rooms, friendly and helpful staff. The area is close to the US and many other embassies and the Union building and university of Pretoria. And there are several nice restaurants in the area. But it’s in an area too dangerous to walk after dark. They do have Well guarded parking and we felt very safe on the premises.

Quiet, comfy hotel in Pretoria’s Embassy District
Pros:

Comfortable room with a nice view of the hotel gardens and pool. Our bed was super comfortable, and the little kitchenette was great. We had a slight issue with our room card deactivating, but the staff was really helpful and even checked the door lock for us. We really enjoyed our stay.

Pros:

I wouldve thought that breakfast was included, but it apparently wasnt, so after 2 cups of coffee and a bowl of cereal it cost us R290 for 2 people which is rather over the top Id say..Our room number was on the list and thus i thought that breakfast was included, rude awakening...

Oasis of refinement and peace
Pros:

This hotel is ideally located in Pretoria's embassy area. Pretoria does not have much to offer, although the parliament garden (Union Buildings) is one of the must of a travel in South Africa, so, if you are a bit tired of travelling all around the country, why not drop your luggage there and settle for a while? It is an oasis of peace and refinement modeled on the lifestyle of old brits gentleman club (but open minded and ladies welcome!). The kind of hotel we regret not having spend more time in to enjoy all it has to offer.
