All Comments for Little Switzerland Hotel by Dream Resorts

We love this hotel because everything is excellent there.

We stayed here for two days with our two children (primary school age), and we all LOVED it. The 2-bedroom chalet was so comfortable, clean, well-equipped and well maintained. The views of the Berg were breathtaking. My favorite part was our forest walks on the property (Rainbow Falls and Wishing Well), where we saw some beautiful indigenous forest. The children enjoyed all the adventure activities tremendously - go-karts, zipline, horse riding and putt-putt, and they also loved the wonderful games room. The staff were all extremely helpful, kind, friendly and hospitable. We will definitely do our best to come back.

I don't have words to express my experience. The views of the mountain was spectacular. The management was caring, checked on us to determine whether we were back from the mountain hike.

I was last there in 2002 and the chalets are exactly the same as 19years ago! It's impressive that's furnishings have definitely stood the test of time but the bathrooms could definitely do with a little face-lift!

Our family loved everything, from the views to horse/pony riding and our children also really enjoyed the kids club🤩 Staff were so friendly and made us feel so comfortable especially during this time. Covid-19 protocols were followed by everyone and we felt so safe while we were there. A BIG THANK YOU😉

Very comfortable and staff was exceptional. They were friendly, helpful and welcoming.

From the gate the welcome we got was so great...friendly receptionist explained everything in such that we had nothing to ask...the cleaning ladies wow...the chalet very clean and provided all the necessities...the surroundings as a whole very welcoming. Would love to come back.

Stunning views from the chalets

What a stunning location, we stayed in the honeymoon suite which had breathtaking views of the amphitheatre and horses and zebra that live on the property. We didn't feel the need to leave Little Switzerland to further explore the area as everything we needed was at our fingertips. The chef is really talented, everything from seafood to salads to steak to pasta & vegetables were deliciously cooked

Our chalet was neat and very clean. The cleaning lady was very efficient. The restaurant is above average, and the garden immaculate. All staff members that we encountered were friendly and helpful. In terms of fittings and furniture the chalets are somewhat inferior to those found at most other resorts in the area. The chalets need an interior revamp.

We had an awesome stay at Little Switzerland. The staff went out of their way at every turn to make sure everything operated smoothly. The chef should be commended as dinner and lunch was amazing. We did breakfast and one evening braai in our chalet and the kitchen was very well equipped. The unit was serviced efficiently and spotlessly cleaned. And lastly all the activities we booked for our children was presented perfectly and exactly on time. We will definitely be returning in future.

Enjoyed the stay. Accommodation was comfortable, clean and cosy. However, don't like the idea of paying for wood. Many other places in the berg provide wood without charge. Becomes restricting to enjoy the cosiness fully. Otherwise certainly would recommend to friends and family.

Really friendly staff and good service. They need new blankets

Dated rooms and decor

Chalets need an upgrade - bedding, curtains,ect

Very nice tidy place away from stresses of life. Lovely views of the mountains. Only the stairs in chalet a challenge with my bad back.

Although the accommodation décor was dated, the space in the self catering chalet was ample. The location and activities also make up for any negative experiences. I would love to return to the Drakensberg again.

Little switzerland was a lovely place to stay for a few days with enough to do. chalets comfortable and clean but need some upgrading.

The accommodation, the View, The service, the meals were all wonderfull. We had a super time at the hotel and would definately stay again.

We enjoyed the stunning views and peace and tranquility that Little Switzerland had to offer. The 6bed self catering chalet was clean and well stocked. The underfloor heating, electric blankets and indoor fireplace with wood in stock were appreciated in the cold winter weather.

we had 5 wonderful days this past week. The staff were all helpful, friendly and polite.  The food was well presented and really great. The accommodation was comfortable and clean. There was also alot of activites for my children. I would recommend Little Switzerland and we will defintely be back. 

Lovely,tranquil setting. Staff very pleasant and chalets very neat.  Enjoyed our stay. Will definitely go back.

The hotel needs further upgrades if it wants to charge the costs it is currently.

This is a lovely place in the Drakensberge on the border of KZN and Freestate. It has some stunning views and friendly staff.

I got engaged at Little Switzerland on the passed weekend. The staff went above and beyond to make this event a special an unforgettable one. It was a lovely experience.

I would recommend Little Switzerland anyone that wants a lovely weekend away. With just 3 and a half hours trip away from Johannesburg it is just close enough to have a lovely weekend away without spending too much time on the the road.

We enjoyed a very relaxing family get-away at Little Switzerland for a couple of days. Excellent service, clean and comfortable self-catering accommodation and amenities in and around the hotel are well maintained.

We were a little concerned about the health of the horses at the hotel - they seem to be malnourished (one in particular had protruding hipbones and clearly visible ribcage) and neglected. I do hope someone is concerning themselves with the welfare of these animals.

Apart from that, a wonderful stay. The restaurant serves excellent buffet meals, the kids are entertained all day long and the staff are friendly and accommodating all 'round.

We will surely be back.

We spent a long weekend at Little Switzerland for our anniversary. Had a lovely time relaxing and enjoying the mountain views and fresh air. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The room was spacious and clean with a patio with great mountain views. The food was good and there was a nice variety. The prices were affordable and there were a range of activities.

This is a fabulous place, hidden away from the noise, traffic, and pollution. The perfect getaway. We had lunch at the restaurant which was really good. The standard of their food is high.  Self Catering Chalets are perfect, well kept and homely.

Over the years we got used to not expect too much from the at food at a dinner, bed and breakfast establishment but we pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food , which was excellent. The portions was also very generous.

I want to thank each and every person involved in making our engagement weekend at Little Switzerland truly special and amazing. The staff has been absolutely awesome, and took it so personal to attend to our every need. You guys will not be forgotten, and definitely visited again and again. Thank you for making it awesome! The venue is fantastic and the rooms utterly delightful

The location is beautiful! in the middle of the mountains. waking up to that spectacular view of the Drakensberg is just wonderful. staff were very helpful and friendly. and the food was of great quality. thanks to the Hotel staff and the Coyote Cafe for excellent cuisine. We will go back for sure!

We were in transit and spent one night at Little Switzerland. Staff were were friendly and helpful. The chalets were nice, neat and warm. Great value for money. The restaurant at the main gate was a huge surprise. We expected toasted treats, but instead we got the best meal of our holiday. I believe the chef was on Masterchef SA. That explains it. Superb grub! Thanks for a lovely night.

Brilliant

Awesome positioning clean and tidy Food had great variety Staff was friendly at all times.

Happy stay

Pleasant staff, good food in the hotel, reasonable prices. Chalets are well equipped. Very pleasant stay overall.

After seeing the Hotel after 8 years I think it is run down and the price too expensive for the state the resort is in. Room inside is fine but main restaurant not running and paying for bed and breakfast you expect a buffet!

Excellent view.

We thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent at Little Switzerland. We were there on a family holiday and were so impressed by the number of staff at the resort who seemed determined to do what they could to ensure that we had a great time. I can see how that would translate into excellent service of corporate clients. The time in this beautiful and professionally managed resort was well worth travelling over the short stretch of poor road over the Oliviershoek Pass. Taken slowly it posed no threat.

Chalets are a bit old but neatly maintained. The place has the most beautiful views from the top of the mountains and great walking trails.

Fantastic. Accommodation comfortable, well serviced by friendly staff. Children activities managed by very capable ladies, guided hikes too. Can't be better

We really enjoyed the stay, will like to thank the friendly staff and its management. The chalets are so cosy and classic.

Wat 'n wonderlike ontvangs en verblyf. Baie dankie vir die puik diens en skoon chalets, die kaggel vuur en die vriendelikheid.

Enjoyed our stay. We were not informed that the gym burnt down and only found out through the newspaper that hotel closed. It is a pity that is so expensive and does not advertise some specials. Nice place but they will have to jack up for me to go back.

My stay was awesome.

We had a great time at Little Switzerland, treating our family from Mauritius! The views were fantastic and very pleasant service was received by the staff,. We swill definitely stay here again. Not to mention the vast amount of activities planned for the day!

Little Switzerland was really great! Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Wow! We had such an awesome time! Thank you so much!

We had a very nice stay in the deluxe mountain view suites. You could just sit there and look at the mountains. We enjoyed our stay together with our three-year-old daughter who loved the horse riding. The dinner was even better than we expected. We really can recommend Little Switzerland and will definitely come back!

If you want a great view of the Drakensberg it is a must that you stay there. The chalets are fully equipped and extremely cosy. Definitely going back next year.

Thank you, we have enjoyed our stay tremendously. The service was fabulous and we were surprised for all the staff's attention towards us. Our experience surpassed all our expectations. The menu and kitchen staff were excellent. We will for sure come again

Great, so much to do. They even made me feel special for my birthday with cake and a candle without anyone telling them. Wished for snow but maybe on a next visit.

The view was amazing and service great. The chalet had all the necessary items and was cleaned on time everyday.

Views were outstanding Place was comfortable and clean would definitely want to go back for longer than the one night we stayed there

All of the staff from all the different parts of the hotel were so polite and friendly and helpful. Nothing was to much trouble for anyone. Our room was so comfortable and spotlessly clean and the touches with the fruit, roses and platter of snacks every evening was perfect. We have been fortunate enough to stay at many hotels around the world and we will definitely be coming back to Little Switzerland. Thank you for a relaxing wonderful weekend. See you soon. Dave and Cindy Lurie.

We spent 3 nights for our honeymoon at Little Switzerland and it was excellent.Very relaxing stay and it was the extremely helpful and friendly staff that made our stay most memorable. We felt like VIP's being greeted and shown to our table for dinner and breakfast. The hosts already knew who we were and even made sure my wife's vegetarian needs were met. Great place for a relaxing getaway....Well done to all the staff...

Little Switzerland is a beautifully situated resort with excellent facilities for all. Pony rides were a hit with the kids. Staff could be more friendly but I suppose such a large resort will inevitably be slightly impersonal.

We were on holiday with the three of us and we were never there before, we liked the setting of the hotel, distances are always far in South Africa it was a long ride to other sightseeings in Drakensberg, like Giant Castle for example. We have to compliment you with the wonderful food you were serving and your excellent winelist. Also the house that we where sleeping is was beautiful with a view we will never forget

The setting of our chalet was absolutely gorgeous, it felt as if we were alone in the mountains. The children enjoyed the pool, jungle gym and horses.

Great

We loved the views of the mountain. The chalet was however very standard and the 4-sleeper chalet we slept in was cramped (especially in the living area with the two pull-down beds). The staff were very friendly and the restaurant food was very tasty with very good service.

Enjoyable

Ran the Mount aux Sources 50km challenge and unfortunately did not have time to explore the surroundings at the resort; maybe next time

We had a most enjoyable week here, the kids just had an absolute ball, relaxing for parents with very comfortable accomodation and good home cooked food.

We were pleasantly surprised at the effort being put into making a stay at the Little Switzerland a family experience and the amount of effort that goes into entertainment for the little ones was greatly appreciated.

The time we spend at Little Switzerland can best be described as restorative. The sheer magnificence of the mountains and the peace and quiet that surround the area force you to be still - to take time to glory in the wonders of nature and to surrender to a feeling of utter peace. Every aspect of our stay at the chalets was idyllic. The only problem is that you have to leave ...

We enjoyed the weekend very much. It was a pity we did not see any snow but maybe next time. The only negative comment that I can make is that the health centre prices is a bit high, what I could suggest is that in winter time maybe they can make the charges cheaper. Otherwise that place is awesome. Well done!!!!!!!!

My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our stay at the resort. It was a perfect weekend getaway for our first anniversary.

The hotel was lovely - staff extremely helpful and friendly!! The food was out of this world !! Compliments to the chef and kitchen staff - the buffet at night was absolutely DELICIOUS, WONDERFUL, very special!!
