Hogsback Arminel Hotel, hotel in Hogsback

Located in Hogsback on the Eastern Cape of South Africa, this thatched-roof hotel offers rooms or self-catering cottages surrounded by native forest.

What a lovely venue,and loved the house,the front door sticks a lot ,however it is clear that the maintainance that is starting is much needed(grass around house,eg) We had a dinner,the side dishes and salads were nice,but wow wow wow the beefstew was not edible,besides the "roast"potato was n 1cm piece in the sause,the meat was only chunks of fat and bone,and the total of meat was 1 tablespoon.The chef needs to know that although the taste was ok,a very expensive meal if without a reasanable amount of meat,something was really wrong with her choice of meat cut. Besides that all was pleasant

    I liked the water flowing sound made by the Lake at the back of our room,the place is basically a nature resort thee best place to visit if you're seeking to regroup and find inner peace while enjoying all the entertainment places around.

    The road is just terrible - and it puts you off having to leave your accommodation as you know you have to venture onto that road through town. The Pub owners need a little education on how to create a cosy atmosphere as there was none. But restaurants are great.

    Its an awesome little town with scenic views.

    Its an awesome little town with scenic views. It has everthing you need but if you do happen to leave your entire bag at home, like me, Alice is just a 25km drive away. Everyone is friendly and helpfull and the nature walks are a must but maybe take a flask if cofee and or some water with in a backpack for the road. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be going back for the garden show in the summer. I was amazed at the large variety if azalias growing evrywhere. The pizza at the restaurant was amazing. The Savemor surprised us with a wide variety of cheeses and other food options.

    A small friendly village. The Beer Brewery isa must visit.

    A small friendly village. The Beer Brewery isa must visit. A walk in the Arboretum to the 39 Steps waterfall, the labaryth at the Edge and a visit to ST Paul's on the Hill are all all must do activities. Do yourself a favour and taste the locally brewed beer and enjoy the tasting in their garden or tasting room - th biltong bowl is also highley recomended.

    The forest in the mountain is breathtaking beautiful.

    The forest in the mountain is breathtaking beautiful. The road between Cathcart and Hogsback is only for serious 4x4 cars, no warning about the terrible condition. The chocolatier in the main road needs a recommendation as well as the warm pastries.

    We enjoyed our 2 day stay at the Goonvrea. Thanks to Nick for his patience with us. We were driving from Cape Town straight to Hogsback. On our way to Hogsback we had to stop a few times on the roadside with tyre bursts. Which resulted in me and my partner missing the check up time. Nick was amazingly patient with us throughout the our ordeal. The weather was not so friendly with us on the day. Thanks to Nick for your patients, we wont hesitate to come to Hogsback again , people were very friendly with us there.

    If only. . . If only it was a getaway, instead of an overnight. If only we had more time. Plan better next time, and stay a few days to absorb and experience the true splendor of Hogsback. (Note to myself) It does not matter the season, nor the weather (it was a chill, rainy day when we stayed here), Away with the Faeries is pure soul food. Take time for the road less traveled over and down the other side of the mountain. You will find the angels blessing you with even more beauty.

    Location brilliant, loved the homely feel of our suite (Frodo) and that we could self cater, the fireplace in the bedroom was absolutely amazing as it was chilly in the evenings and it lent such a lovely atmosphere. Right at the edge of the forest so easy to get to. The cliff bath was so special, monkeys running around outside and the resident dogs....OOOOHHHH and the amazing Kahuna massage we had with Amanda in the area overlooking the forest. All staff were great!

    Location is (I'm 99% sure) the best in Hogsback. The view is breathtaking and the cottage is perfectly situated to see all the landmarks of Hogsback. The cottage is unpretentious, but comfortable. It is well equipped and had whatever we needed. The manager Annari is amazing, she is welcoming and made us feel right at home like old friends. She was very helpful with everything happening in town with recommendations on where to eat, where to go and not to go etc.

    I really loved how clean and historic the hotel was. It made me think that we were living in a different era. The hotel has a history and you can feel it. The staff treated us well and gave us some good tips on which restaurants to visit and where the starting points were for some nearby hikes. The town has a general loving atmosphere and everyone is welcoming and happy.

    Bramber cottage is in a beautiful location in the Hogsback. It is quiet with lovely views. It is convenient for The Edge and for Touraco restaurants and for the Satrurday market under the oaks at the Edge. Eric and Gloria were marvellous hosts and Eric rescused us when we were stuck on a difficult local road!

    The house is very spacious and is set in a beautiful location. The owner is very warm, welcoming and shared a lot of information with us about Hogsback. The essential oils shop on the premises is a must visit. We were especially happy about the house being dog friendly so we could take our dog with.

    Amazing views of the mountain, super friendly hosts, very clean stone "cottage", with fireplaces, a full kitchen and full DSTV. Absolutely safe, with gorgeous walks on the property, and very central to coffee shops/ restaurants etc. The best accommodation you'll find in Hogsback!

    What an awesome place. Serene and calm in the Hogsback mountains. The host was super nice and offered for us to stay another night free of charge. Unfortunately we could not take him on his offer as we already had prior arrangements. Will definitely visit again.
