The property was very dated and did not have any of the listed amenities available. It's was cold and desolate. Empty off all but a few workers. Some were incredibly helpful while others did not seem too care about the customers. I will not recommend this place to anyone. We went with our family and had to leave early because it was so cold and they refused to provide blankets or any kind of heat. Will be filling a report with my credit card company.

3 star hotel
We had a 3 night stay at Little Switzerland. The room was spacious with a patio but a little dated, the carpet was lumpy with the underfloor heating only working in parts. The bathroom was clean and spacious with a jacuzzi style bath but had a rather low end metal wash hand basin. Location is excellent with lovely hikes/ walks. Evening dinners were very good , nice selection with fair service. Poor selection .choice and service at breakfast time.

Serene mountain view of Little Switzerland
Little Switzerland gave us a very pleasant stay. The gardens were well kept and clean. Units were excellently clean. My only down snag was my neighbors were playing loud music, drinking alcohol at the pool and shouting loudly and stepping out of their unit naked. Enjoyed the hikes and watching the baboons.

Layout of room
The front door has a semi frosted glass that can see through, without a curtain. For a elderly couple in the 70’s having a split level accommodation with the toilet on the entrance landing was very uncomfortable
