St Ives Lodge & Venue ★★★★

📍 St Ives Lodge & Venue, R103 Midmar Rd, Howick

"last‑minute overnight stay at St Ives Lodge turned out to be perfect. The estate is peaceful, beautifully kept, and full of wildlife zebra, wilder beast, antelope wandering freely across the grounds, which made the whole experience feel like a mini‑safari without any effort. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable even though a bit dated. Staff were friendly and welcoming breakfast in the main lodge was perfect with the atmosphere overall was calm and relaxing. It’s the kind of place where you instantly unwind the moment you arrive."

Fordoun Hotel and Spa
9.3 (49 reviews)

Fordoun Hotel and Spa ★★★★★

📍 Nottingham Road, Howick

"Both my family and I have been going to Fordoun Hotel and Spa for many years. Firstly, the Spa staff are absolutely amazing! Last year when I went for a half day spa - the spa experience was amazing but noticed a few concerns. I went to lunch and at lunch in front of other patrons I was asked to settle my bill, when I told them that it was a birthday gift voucher of a half day spa, including lunch, they disagreed with me. I knew I had to pay for my glass of wine, but the whole lunch had already been paid with my half day spa. I went to the management office and left my card there to ask that someone from management contacts me to give them my experience. I walked out knowing I was in the right, and my lunch had been paid for. I was never contacted. I recently went to have my half day spa again and had a wonderful time at the spa. What I did notice is the rusting shower units, fruit that was off (I took a photo), cracks in tiles, towels were scarce when I showered in the changing room. It looks rundown. Nonetheless, I went down to meet my brother for lunch and had an amazing lunch. With a full restaurant I was approached again to pay my lunch bill and advised the waiter that it was included in my half day spa, they insisted I pay, even bringing the poor staff member from the spa to try and get me to pay. I was felt embarrassed and angry at the same time. I said goodbye to my brother and went with the spa assistant to the spa to find out what was going on. They were told that I needed to pay for my lunch as per management. I walked down to management and refused to pay for my lunch (wine was paid for) as it is part of the package, my husband bought the half day spa voucher, like he does every year that includes a lunch. Management insisted that I needed to pay so I asked for management to contact me on the Monday (I went on the Sunday) for the pure reason of I went in stressed, had a lovely spa session and then went home stressed. I did not want to talk to anyone. I advised the lady at the management offices that I would like to sort this out and not have to resort to social media to voice my frustrations. Nobody heard me and I was called the same day. I politely asked the person to contact me on Monday. The Spa Manager contacted me, and I again advised that the Spa is not the problem, it is a simple transaction between departments and could not understand how management could not hear me about this. I thanked her for her lovely staff but would like management to contact me to explain why this is happening. To date, I have not heard from anyone and as promised I am going to social media before another person goes through the same embarrassment I did - you made me look like a could not afford my lunch and that I was not an honest person by not paying. Shame on you for putting me in this position. To management: I will not be returning to your spa for further abuse. You are wondering why you are getting quieter in the Natal Midlands; it is because of"

Sunbird Guest House

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
7.6 (273 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."

The FarSide Country Manor
9.8 (67 reviews)

The FarSide Country Manor ★★★★

📍 Currys Post Road, Nottingham Road, Howick

"Excellent stopover just off the beaten track. Friendly hosts being Graham who owns it, and Ryan his son who runs the place. Great accomodation. It's a small establishment with only a few rooms. We were in room 2 with an in room bath and separate shower and toilet. Lovely comfortable bed and good quality linen and bath towels. Loved the honesty bar and common area downstairs, plus the friendly Jack Russel. Amos cooked a great breakfast and even although there was load shedding there was no disruption to service. Only negative being there weren't any good restaurants in the vicinity for dinner unless you drove all the way back to Nottingham Road."

Rawdons Hotel & Brewery Hotels in Howick

Rawdons Hotel & Brewery

"A short (one night) but comfortable stay in lovely Rawdons. Old-world (in the best sense and not as in stuffy and conservative) in a pretty setting, you feel your stresses melt away as you enter the elegant, tree-lined driveway. Linda and her staff- Thando, Stripes, Phili, Zama and others - make guests feel welcome and at ease. Our Garden Suite was generous in size with a lovely bay window. May be worth installing a bar fridge as all other amenities are included. Dinner and breakfast were both homely and authentic. We will be back!"

Loxley House Hotels in Howick

Loxley House

"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.

"A great venue! Accommodation good- large room, huge bed and fireplace a great touch. Clean and neat. Could probably do with a refresh. Beautiful grounds, great walks. Lovely to see zebra and buck wandering freely. The conference centre great for wedding, good party…, huge varanda over water for gathering/ photos. Highly recommended"

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."

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."
