The Old Mushroom Farm
8.7 (42 reviews)

The Old Mushroom Farm ★★★★

📍 11 Karkloof Road, Howick

"Luvit. On my favourite list of places to stay. Wonderful revamp plan created good vibe while maintaining excellent functionality. Central to all the fun bits around Karkloof. Their breakfast cook makes the best poached eggs, exactly as you order! I like cooking for myself, so the well-appointed kitchen designed around a mighty gas stove went a long way to please. It was rather warm during my stay, so I didn’t get to start up the wood furnace. I can only imagine how cozy that could make the apartment on a chilly evening… Staff: always helpful and friendly. Shops are full of homemade treasures."

📍 Private Road D534, Howick

Granny Mouse Country House & Spa
8.5 (657 reviews)

Granny Mouse Country House & Spa ★★★★

📍 R103 Old Main Road, Balgowan, Howick

"Truly a relaxing getaway. We stayed in the deluxe suite- lovely views, comfortable room with underfloor heating in the bathroom that was ideal for the cooler weather. Especially enjoyed the window seats in the room- perfect for relaxing and soaking up the sun. We had breakfast and dinner at The Bistro and received excellent service and delicious food. We requested for our hake at dinner not to be beer battered and to be prepared seperately for religious reasons and the staff were very accommodating. We also visited the spa for a massage. The spa was clean with heated blankets on the massage beds which really elevated the experience. Would definitely return to Granny Mouse for future getaways! The tranquility can't be beaten."

Sunbird Guest House
8.0 (2 reviews)

Sunbird Guest House ★★★★

📍 30 Anderson Rd, Howick

"Everything inside was nice & clean but outside needs some work. Other than that not bad value for money"

Nutmeg Guest House
7.7 (272 reviews)

Nutmeg Guest House ★★★

📍 5 Dicks Street, Howick

"VERY over priced. Coffee - only 2 sachets provided. No option of tea. So either have one before bed or the morning!!! The only form of toileties, was a little round soap in a wrapper and an empty plastic bottle with a label stating "shampoo". Not even hand soap at the basin or a hand towel. Single ply toilet paper looked like rats had been at it. Mats in the bathroom had holes, as did the spare double/queen sized blanket for the single bed. No hairdryer. Electric blanket did not work and temp was around 3°. Thank goodness I had taken my hotwater bottle. Had 3 mis-matched cups, glasses, plates etc. Floor rug could do with a wash. Curtains are really thin and don't block out the lights from outside. Only 1 2-pin plug point in the room. There were various notices stuck with prestick on the walls indicating Rules, Tv guide, don't feed dogs, no smoking etc. Why not put all in a little flip file all in one place?? The single bed was comfortable and there was hot water for a shower. Location is good but needs loads of TLC. Don't think I will be going back any time soon."

Loxley House
8.8 (50 reviews)

Loxley House ★★★★

📍 1 Loteni Rd, Nottingham Road

"Communication was very poor leading up to our visit and whilst we were there (even when the cellphone towers were back working) There was no electricity which is no fault of the owners we understand but no extra effort made to accommodate this like a bucket of hot water to wash etc. They knew about the lack of electricity from the day before we arrived and didn’t inform us so we could have planned a bit better we left a day early and again heard nothing from the owner after watsapping them The feeling was one of we were an irritation and they’re actually over the service industry We felt it was expensive for what you got and there are many other places on the midlands more value for money.

Fordoun Hotel and Spa Hotels in Howick

Fordoun Hotel and Spa

"My husband & I have been visiting Fordoun for twenty years. This past December we invited our children to spend 3 days with us at the Farm Village over Christmas. This is the first time in twenty years that we were disappointed. The 6 sleeper was very inadequate, bare floors, rickety furniture & a tiny main bathroom with a minuscule shower. The Christmas lunch was equally disappointing. I am pescatarian & was promised a seafood main. The tasteless blob of fish that was delivered to me was inedible. I actually got food poisoning straight after. We did complain & the head chef apologised to my husband but didn’t make eye contact with me. I thought I would be charged a discount for my meal, since they didn’t deliver what was promised. Alas, that wasn’t the case. The spa was, as always, fabulous. I think now my husband & I will have to find a new favourite place. Highly disappointed with Fordoun."

Gateside Guesthouse Hotels in Howick

Gateside Guesthouse

"The location we stayed in was beautiful, and we truly appreciated the wonderful amenities. The views were stunning, and the neighbourhood felt clean and safe, contributing to a pleasant atmosphere. However, we encountered some challenges during our trip that affected our experience. On the fourth day, the host's communication style came across as demeaning, which impacted the overall mood of our stay. We felt uncomfortable with the constant reminders about potential penalties for damages, which detracted from our enjoyment. Additionally, our breakfast was unfortunately late on December 31st, and we were surprised that a hot breakfast wasn't prepared for us over two days. This created an inconsistency in our experience, especially considering the expectations regarding our treatment. We believe that with some adjustments in communication and service consistency, the overall experience could greatly improve. While we enjoyed many aspects of our trip, addressing these concerns would enhance the stay for future guests."

Crestwood Hotels in Howick

Crestwood

"Crestwood Estate is a wonderful place ideal for couples or families. It has well appointed accommodation and a great communal area with lounge, fireplace, pool table and a superb outside area with a brass and pool overlooking the valley. Great breakfast and friendly staff."

Arum Hill Lodge Hotels in Howick

Arum Hill Lodge

"We had a truly wonderful stay at Arum Hill Lodge B&B. The location is ideal, situated conveniently close to the wedding venue, yet offering a peaceful and secure environment. The property itself is beautifully maintained, with a sense of care and attention to detail evident throughout. The rooms were exceptionally spacious, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable—perfect for a re-set getaway where you can unwind from the fast-paced city. From the moment of booking right through to check-out, the host, Jan, was consistently helpful, efficient, and welcoming, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free. Overall, Arum Hill Lodge B&B is a gem in the Midlands. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a secure, well-kept, and comfortable place to stay with outstanding hospitality."

Rockwood Karkloof Forest Lodge & Mountain Cabin Hotels in Howick

Rockwood Karkloof Forest Lodge & Mountain Cabin

"We just loved our time at the Forest Lodge, I wish it was longer. We needed more time to explore the forest, walks and dams. The lodge is beautifully decorated and every guest amenity is supplied and available throughout your stay. We really did feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Cant wait to go back"

Bosch Hoek Golf & Lodge Hotels in Howick

Bosch Hoek Golf & Lodge

"Restaurant and rooms overlook a tranquil green pasture, home to deer species and the occasional Nguni cattle herd. An internationally acclaimed 9 hole golf course on the other side, out of view. Staff so genuinely friendly and accommodating. Excellent breakfasts while viewing the meadows. Dinners acceptable with huge portions but lack some culinary finesse. Overall a pleasant experience to remember."

The Old Mushroom Farm ★★★★
"The OId Mushroom Farm is a rustic, off the grid apartment. The reimagining of the operating farm into a holiday destination is successful. The addition of retail and entertainment spaces makes for a very pleasant stay. The accommodation is rustic, but comfortable. I have though a warning. The steps to the apartment do not have a rail and may be difficult to navigate for some people. The fireplace is very pleasant but cannot heat the room, which could make for a rather cold stay in winter. "

Granny Mouse Country House & Spa ★★★★
"Granny Mouse is a lovely country hotel. Fortunately there were no weddings nor functions during our stay so we had a relaxing, peaceful stay. Our room had wonderful views over the rolling hills and was relatively private. The meals were very good and the choice was sufficient for a three night stay, Staff were very friendly and helpful. Our Spa treatment was exceptional professionally completed by friendly caring staff. Our only downside was not being able to use the log burner as it was still cold at nights. "

Nutmeg Guest House ★★★
"I received this accommodation as part of my 6 day tour. Stayed here 2 nights. Things that matter to me. After using my towels first day, I left it on the floor. On coming back, found it hanging on the rack to be used again. Complaint to reception I was told "we don't change towels daily, welcome to Africa". I don't agree, this was my day 21, it's not true. Asked for towels which I was given. Breakfast was included in my deal, nothing special basic English Breakfast. Only soap is provided in bathroom. Toilet paper provided is very poor quality, worse than backpackers hostel in Thailand. Room is clean, no insects. Heater and power points. Fridge, microwave, kettle that worked. Toilet pan, cupboard and drawers all run down. WiFi good quality. TV was small and old, could not cast. TV hooked to a box with programs that wasn't desirable. No YouTube, Netflix etc. For SA room doors and windows were secure."
