Prins Albert is a beautiful small town and never disappointed at our stay at the Swartberg
Pros:

It has a great location in the middle of town with secure off-street parking and easy access to restaurants and shopping. A beautiful historic building with great staff

Cons:

Nothing not to like

Pros:

Wer den Flair alter Hotels liebt ist hier richtig. Knarrende Holzböden erinnern an vergangene Zeiten. Aber alles funktioniert bestens. Klimaanlage gut und sehr leise. Findet man in neuen Hotels selten.

Cons:

Nichts

I love Prince Albert and have menories of vety pleasant stays in the Swartbetg Hotel, but will certainly look for anothe
Pros:

I love the old worldly Victorian feeling about the hotel.

Cons:

The Swartbergpas Cottage needs attention: patio floor full of “potholes” and in desperate need of attention.
The second bedroom had no hooks or clothes hanging space. A picture fell from the wall behind the bed headbord and was not replaced. No hooks or rails in the bathroom ro hang a gown or a towel. Our bathroom toilet was filthy after my friend had diarrhea and was not cleaned untill we left in the 6th of March. Dinners in the diningroom were exceptionally expensive, overpriced. One would rather eat at a choice of other better restsurants with value for money meals. Sadly, all over just a sad state of affairs in this hotel.

Disappointing. We were so excited to go there, but we won't be back.
Pros:

Breakfast was good, staff lovely.

Cons:

1. The room we were in was next to noisy extractor fan. The hotel was empty, and we don't know why we were put in that room if many better options were available.
2. Plugs not working in room – had to keep moving this around to charge phones, boil kettle etc.
3. The pool chairs had no cushions and were very uninviting, and the area was very messy, so we ended up not using the pool
4. Ladies bar (featured as a highlight on your website) was closed and has been for a while. WHY?

Interesting experience, like stepping back in time.
Pros:

The hotel is very quaint and has an old world charm. Everything is very tidy and well maintained. The garden and pool was the highlight of our stay, a beautiful green oasis in this karoo town and a stylish set pool. Breakfast on the stoep was great. The staff were friendly.

Cons:

Our bed was a bit small, a regular double bed, for larger people this may be tricky. We had to shift rooms as the one advertised on Booking .com was deceptive in its description and not all rooms have a garden view or direct access to the garden. Each day a new small piece of paper containing a wifi code for each device was issued to update access.
