Traditional style in the Victorian gem of Prince Albert
The Swartberg Hotel has been operating for 150 years, is a national monument and has been fully refurbished and updated. This is a great country hotel offering accommodation in reasonably sized en suite rooms with air conditioning and many with beautiful antique furniture complimenting the beautiful wood floors. The restaurant is well regarded locally and in the warm summer evenings a cool beer on the stoep dripping with colourful bougainvillea is a must.
About the Location

The town boasts an excellent, small, leather shop and an outlet, which specialises in hand made rugs and other woollen items all made in Prince Albert. You are close to the spectacular Swartberg Pass and Meiringspoort Pass.
