The Legendary Nottingham Road Hotel was built in the 1890s and is historically known as one of the oldest pubs in KwaZulu-Natal. This old-style hotel has 14 en-suite rooms, and 10 modern Garden Suites, both twins and doubles. Set in typically old English gardens, this hotel is located in the village of Nottingham Road which is in the heart of the Midlands Meander. There is a beautiful restaurant on site serving an a la carte menu which caters for all meals. Within close proximity to the hotel is the Gowrie Farm Golf Course which is a well designed and beautifully manicured 12 hole course. The area boasts plenty of unique craft shops, fly fishing, cheese, beer and wine tasting, as well as many well known country eateries all within five minutes of the hotel. The hotel with its historical charm, warm and friendly staff and festive atmosphere is a definite stopover for any visitor to the Midlands. It is approximately one and a half hours from Durban and four hours from Johannesburg.
"We were unfortunate in booking a room on the night the Michaelhouse Grade 12s had their final going away bash."
"The scenery, the climate, the old feel, all what I needed."
"Unfortunately the first night some extremely drunk men made a huge noise till 2:30 in the morning and then started up again at 6:00. Will not stay at this hotel again."
"We checked into the hotel with consummate ease and were made to feel immediately welcome,Hotel is old but very clean and staff friendly,we stayed in the cottages and despite being a little noisy we were comfortable and enjoyed a great week-end.Very Central and the fact that they are Pet Friendly was a big plus and our Bulldog was welcomed with open arms."
"Great Staff...most helpfullF & B was greatStaff well trained , polite and delivered greatsservice"
"We stayed in the Garden Suites and were pleasantly surprised by the luxurious beds . My room had a small lounge area which led out onto a patio. Bathrooms very well appointed."
"We enjoyed our stay at the Nottingham Road Hotel. The rooms were clean, the linen and bed were clean and comfortable. But... little things tend to mar the whole experience. The fact that we didn't have warm water on the first morning of our stay was uncomfortable, but they fixed that asap. The fact that there wasn't soap for washing hands, and they did not replace the tiny bottle of shower gel the whole 4 days we were there, were not expected of a 3 star hotel. The room we were in, was close to the vent for the restaurant below, and we were unpleasantly blasted with cooking smells the whole time. Maybe they could just extend the 'chimney'? But, that all said, we would not mind staying there again. They only need to look more closely at the little things..."
"Although the staff are very helpful and food is good, the hotel relies far too much on it's historical appeal."
"My wife and I stayed at the Legendary Notties Hotel on our way back from the Comrades. The staff were really friendly and helpful.Food was also really nice and inexpensive. Can't believe that we have never stayed there before."
"We only stayed one night at the Legendary Nottingham Road hotel. On first impression, we had our doubts. But the rooms were clean, cosy and the beds comfortable. The room we had was large and spacious. The shower wasn't great. Our evening meal was exceptional!!Staff was friendly and helpful. Thank you!"
"The staff were friendly, the rooms clean and the bar had a great atmosphere."
"We had a great stay at Notties Hotel. All of the staff we had interaction with was very attentive and helpful (reception, bar & restaurant). The pub is loads of fun and the food in the restaurant is fantastic. Notties Hotel is a must in my opinion - great value for money! It definitely is more than a pub with rooms.Thank you, we'll definitely be back."
"I love the history of the place. It exudes old-world charm. The pub has a great atmosphere, the food was good, staff were friendly and the beds very comfortable. The eggs served at breakfast were really great. Only complaint - it is looking a bit run down and could do with a new coat of paint. All in all, great value for money."
"We thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay at the NRH. A special experience, so different from the normal boring hotel. Room was clean and comfortable, good food. Will definitely stay there again."
"I love the oldness of the Hotel, it is beautiful, the bed was fantastic and I just love the cast iron claw bath tub. The food was very nice. Next time I want to visit room number 10."
"We had a lovely weekend and were treated very well by a efficient and very friendly staff members."
"We had a really enjoyable overnight at the hotel. Our room was good, the bed superb and the dinner on Sunday evening was fabulous. Breakfast on Monday was exactly what we needed and the whole one-night stay will be a great memory for us."
"We enjoyed the stay tremendously and will do so again if the opportunity arises. A special word of congratulations on the friendliness and competency of staff."
"It still has Old World charm, with 21st century finishes. It took us back 55 years. The train screaming through in the middle of the night added to the fun. Great crowd of locals in the pub, great grub. Service was excellent. You will definitely see us again. Have mentioned your hotel to all our friends. Thank you."
"Enjoyable with very friendly staff. Saturday night was a loud party night. Good food at a reasonable prices."
"Very clean rooms and a very festive pub! Food was great! It was really great but Room 13 where we stayed had a VERY noisy "Generator/Extractor/???????" right next to it and unfortunately woke us up continuously!!!! Apart from that it was great to see that they are keeping up with the the "old" style hotel as far as furnishings are concerned."
