We stayed in the Riverside suite- beautiful room with lovely outside table and view of stream.

Wood for indoor fire was provided and a bathroom with a tub and shower. The TV is old and not really visible from the bed or couch, but Hogsback is so beautiful, we were hardly inside long enough to notice. There is no network/wifi in the rooms. This was missed as one had to move to the reception to sort out phone admin. Hogsback is a magical destination. Hogsback Inn is central and full of Hogsback history.

Dit was absoluut fantasties. Dankie.

Ek het gevoel ons stort was nie baie gerieflik nie. Water het baie gemors op die vloer. Dit kan verbeter. Televisie het ontbreek in ons kamer en dit het gelei dat ons later verveeld geraak het. Andersins was die diens uitstekend. Die ontvangsdame het 'n pragtige gesindheid teenoor haar kliënte. Die hele personeel het almal 'n vriendelike gesindheid. Ek gee hulle 100% vir menseverhoudinge. Goeie diens.

It was absolutely fantastic. Thank you.

I felt our shower was not very convenient. Water spilled a lot on the floor. It can improve. Television was missing in our room and this led to us getting bored later. Otherwise the service was excellent. The receptionist has a lovely attitude towards her customers. The entire staff all have a friendly attitude. I give them 100% for human relations. Good service.

Hogsback Inn has kept a lot of tradition and history in its building. It is a very homely place that should not be ignored by holiday dwellers. Two thumbs up from me.

Aangenaam verras met die backpackers.

My indruk van backpackers is dorm rooms en almal in mekaar se besigheid. By Hogsback in is dit nie die geval nie, genoegsame geriewe vir die paar privaat kamers beskikbaar. Eenvoedig, maar voldoende. Goeie beddens met goeie kwaliteit, warm beddegoed, Skoon kombuis en badkamer met warm water. Glad nie sleg nie.

Pleasantly surprised with the backpackers.

My impression of backpackers is dorm rooms and everyone is in each other's business. At Hogsback Inn this is not the case, sufficient facilities for the few private rooms available. Simple, but sufficient. Good beds with good quality, warm bedding, Clean kitchen and bathroom with hot water. Not bad at all.

Beautiful on the outside but verwaarloos inside.

After returning after many years was horribly disappointed. The room we booked was terrible. Used to stay in it. Was upgraded to a 'better'' which was indeed bigger and more spacious but still dirty. The carpets are horrendous and the curtains are also dirty. Restaurants serve good food. Just very slow. Took an hour for our food and we were the first to order. Unfortunately will not visit the Inn again. Much nicer places to stay in Hogsback.

Dilapidated and dirty.

Furniture is dilapidated. Curtains and bedding are old and not clean. The doorknob simply fell off upon arrival. I had to go look for towels in the evening at the reception, which also took 10min. DSTV is not working. To top it all off, we find dog or human excrement in front of the front door on the second night. They also can't advertise wifi because the wifi doesn't work where we stayed. Then we also had to pay R6400 to stay in this place for 2 nights. The place was definitely not full.

Hogsback Inn needs to focus more on customer service.

Although we booked the "budget" rooms I believe Hogsback Inn can do more to attract the customer back. We were on a motorcycle tour and by nature a rider doesn't carry much with him on his motorcycle. There were 2 biscuits in the room and no coffee, tea, sugar etc. not in the shared kitchen. So I had to go get coffee from friends. And the 1 shower was blocked and the hot water was on after 1 man showered for 2 min. I believe they can do more. I am a regular visitor to Hogsback and would like to recommend the people. But based on this weekend's experience, I can't do that. It's all in the details.

The inn is fairly centrally located. It is somewhat dated, but has a rich history. Grounds are beautiful, although the rain can cause some deep ditches in the clay road leading up to the inn. Staff is kind and very friendly. Had a great stay!

Beautiful location, poorly maintained.

The Hogsback Inn is located in a beautiful location but the 4 sleeper is poorly maintained and sleeping arrangements not suitable for a family with 2 teenagers. Although clean, the furniture is old, with holes in the fabric and the springs worn through. Only one plate on the stove works and the oven does not work at all. The bottom of the kitchen cupboards are rotting.

Dit was nie lekker by Hogsback Inn nie.

Vir backpackers-kamers is die tariewe veels te duur. Die plek kort baie dringend opknappingswerk. Mure gemuf, matte kapoet, meubels in die portaal stukkend en afgeleef. Kombuis nie 'n plek om kos te berei nie. Waar daar glas vensters moes wees tussen die kamers en die portaal was net houtplanke. En die kamer wat ek in moes slaap was die plank nog in twee dele wat beteken dat die kamer geen privaatheid het nie. Geen behoorlike parkering buite nie. Storte kort aandag en is nie higiënies nie. Die yskas in die kombuis het nie enige ys in gehad nie en ek het die bestuurder via die kroegdame gaan sien en gevra dat ek ys kan koop. Die man was baie kortaf en het my meegedeel dat die ys wat hy het net vir sy klante/gaste is. Ons het flippen duur betaal en ons was nie gereken as gaste nie? Ons het met ons verdere vakansieverblyf baie beter gekry vir minder geld. Ek sal duidelik seker maak in my gesprekke met ander dat Hogsback nie 'n goeie plek is nie. Ek het ook heelwat foto's geneem om my storie hier te staaf.

It was not nice at Hogsback Inn.

For backpackers rooms, the rates are way too expensive. The place is in dire need of renovation. Walls moldy, carpets kaput, furniture in the portal broken and run down. Kitchen not a place to prepare food. Where there should have been glass windows between the rooms and the portal there were only wooden boards. And the room I had to sleep in was still in two parts, which means that the room has no privacy. No proper parking outside. Showers lack attention and are not hygienic. The fridge in the kitchen didn't have any ice in it and I went to see the manager via the barmaid and asked if I could buy ice. The man was very curt and informed me that the ice he has is only for his customers/guests. We paid ridiculously high prices and we weren't counted as guests? We got much better for less money with our further holiday accommodation. I will clearly make sure in my conversations with others that Hogsback is not a good place. I also took quite a few photos to back up my story here.

Verblyf is skoon en netjies, maar hotel kort werk.

Verblyf was skoon en netjies, maar die hotel dekor is oud en kort aandag. Die mentaliteit van die eienaars is swak, goed word lui aangepak byvoorbeeld in plaas daarvan om die multiplug teen die muur te monteer balanseer hulle dit op die asblik, orals merke teen die mure wat geverf moet word etc.

Accommodation is clean and tidy, but hotel needs work.

Accommodation was clean and tidy, but the hotel decor is old and in need of attention. The mentality of the owners is poor, things are tackled lazily, for example instead of mounting the multiplug on the wall they balance it on the trash can, there are marks everywhere on the walls that need to be painted etc.

Beautiful setting with old school charm.

Lovely, old school charm, but don't expect any mod cons! If you're staying self-catering then remember to have all of your supplies as there is only one shop in town which is sometimes closed. The food is delicious at the restaurant! The Wi-Fi is only accessible in the hotel and not in the self-catering rooms.

Fantasties!

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Die diens was puik en Kerry en Belinda het uit hulle pad gegaan om in ons behoeftes te voorsien. Ons het al klaar ons volgende bespreking gemaak en hoop om volgende keer sneeu te sien.

Dit is uiters vervalle.

Die personeel is vriendelik, die kamers in treurige toestand. Plafonne losgetrek van die muur, die matte vuil en oud, spinnerakke in die badkamer. Dit het werklik gevoel of ons die oudste en vuilste kamer gekry het en ons het lank gelede bespreek. Die kos gemiddeld. Klein bakkie sop vir baie duur. 'n TV wat blêr in 'n eetstaal met 'n komedieprogram, nie aanvaarbaar nie. Sal nie sommer weer daar gaan bly nie.

It is extremely dilapidated.

The staff are friendly, the rooms in a miserable condition. Ceilings detached from the wall, the rugs dirty and old, cobwebs in the bathroom. It really felt like we were getting the oldest and dirtiest room and we booked a long time ago. The food average. Small bowl of soup for very a lot of money. A TV that blades in a dining room with a comedy program is not acceptable. Will not stay there again.

Give this place a miss! Old, dingy and worst of all dirty! Most of the taps leak, closets are broken, water damage on the ceiling everywhere. Hotel staff enter the room unannounced. Location is great but accommodation is down right terrible.

Lekker gebly en sal beslis weer terug gaan. Die netheidgradering is slegs omdat hulle besig was met opknappings en verstaanbaar is.

Was disappointing.

We stayed in a self-catering unit. The unit was very neglected, especially on the outside. The unit smells stuffy and the general impression was just not very good. We stayed at another resort the second night at about the same cost, but the value for money was much better. Can't comment on the hotel rooms or restaurant as we didn't visit.

'n Absolute moet! Hogsback Inn het soveel atmosfeer.

Fantastiese 2de besoek. Die ou hotel, met sy kroeg vol atmosfeer was ons tuiste vir 3 aande. Vir diegene wat hou van fancy hotelle, bly weg. Maar as jy, soos ons, hou van 'n fantastiese atmosfeer en goeie diens met ouwêreldse sjarme en 'n ongelooflike ligging, dan is Hogsback Inn die plek vir jou! Dankie julle, ons kom weer!

An absolute must! Hogsback Inn has so much atmosphere.

Great 2nd visit. The old hotel, with its bar full of atmosphere, was our home for 3 nights. For those who like fancy hotels, stay away. But if, like us, you like a fantastic atmosphere and great service with old world charm and an incredible location, then Hogsback Inn is the place for you! Thank you, we will come again!

Ontvlugting vir die die hele gesin.

'n Pragtige ligging met vele te doen vir die gesin as jul van stap en die natuur hou. Anders kan jy langs die kaggel sit en boek lees, en die kabbelende stroompie dophou.

A beautiful location with lots to do for the family if you like walking and nature. Otherwise you can sit next to the fireplace and read a book while watching the stream.

Hogsback is 'n pragtige dorpie!

Die Hogsback Inn is 'n pragtige plek, maar die kamers is duidelik baie oud en die instandhouding nie na wense nie. Nogtans skoon en het lekker geslaap!

Ouerige akkommodasie.

Die hotel vertoon baie mooi van buite maar die kamers is stokoud en die matte, beddegoed en gordyne kort 'n goeie skoonmaak. Hogsback is 'n pragtige dorp en die hotel is baie mooi geleë maar kort aandag.

Elderly accommodation.

The hotel looks very nice from the outside but the rooms are very old and the carpets, bedding and curtains need a good cleaning. Hogsback is a beautiful town and the hotel is very nicely located but needs attention.

Enigste probleem was 'n groep jong mense wat nuwejaarsaand baie vriende oorgenooi het en harde musiek gespeel het deur die nag.

Bestuur het niks gedoen om dit te stop nie. Goeie verblyf, die kamers is veral groot.

Only problem was a group of young people who invited many friends over on New Year's Eve and played loud music throughout the night.

Management did nothing to stop it. Good accommodation, the rooms are particularly large.
