Have a memorable stay in the historical Royal Hotel in Steytlerville. Whether you are a historian or a romanticist, you will have a fabulous time at our establishment.

The Royal Hotel dating from 1897 has a tranquil atmosphere with typical old-fashioned rooms. Watching the ? activities and people? from the street facing verandah, with an ice cold drink, is a lasting experience.

Steytlerville is a gem in the Karoo, about two hours from Port Elizabeth and two and a half hours from George. It is on the way to Outshoorn and is situated between the Baviaanskloof and Addo Elephant Park.

Steytlerville nights invites you to the brightest stars that you can imagine and you can watch that from a telescope at a neighboring farm. Talk to your friends about the donkey car ride through town or visit one of the biggest Gregorian style Dutch Reformed churches in the Southern Hemisphere. Comprehend where the poet A.G. Visser got his inspiration from and do not miss a show over dinner at the Karroo Theatrical Hotel! Have a picnic at Draaikrans rotated rocks or just come and relax in the quiet Karoo.

Should you have a group to entertain, contact us to create a customized program. Whether it is for a family reunion, hiking, birthday party, hunting, biking or family getaway, we will make sure you have a weekend full of fun

Very pleasant. Room clean, food good and very friendly.

Excellent by

Excellent value. Charming owner and staff. Clean and comfortable. Offered a lot of help regarding activities in the area and phoned around to find out what was available in town the night of our stay. Will highly recommend to friends visiting the town.

Disappointing by

The Royal Hotel is not for those looking for the peace and quiet of a quaint Karoo village. Steytlerville is a lovely town to wander around and to stoep sit. Unfortunately a few issues with the Royal Hotel dampened the experience.
The Royal Hotel advertises itself as a bed and breakfast. However rates do not include breakfast.
Royal Hotel provided us a quote through SafariNow which we accepted after querying that it was correct. Only on our day of arrival were we informed that they had actually misquoted us and we still owed them money. Management took no interest in providing an explanation for the misquote or taking responsibility for their error.
Royal Hotel advertise WiFI which in fact is not available for guests.
Our satellite connection on the room TV was lost. Despite reporting this to management they were not interested in attending to the problem.
A group of families renting out the self containment units would braai and socialise outside the Hotel rooms, using chairs meant for our room and made it difficult to access your room or have any privacy.
 


Sunday shock by

I arrived at the Royal on Sunday 3 Jan and was warmly received as I was a returning guest and pleasantries where exchanged.

At 16:00 I ordered and enjoyed a toasted sandwich on the front verandah as I had not had lunch yet.

The young lady that was on duty that day asked me if that was to be my supper and I replied that it was just a snack and that I would return later for my supper.

I returned to the verandah at 19:00 to order my dinner only to find that everything was closed and the young lady was busy locking up the bar area.

She informed me that the kitchen closes at 19:00 on a Sunday.

Needless to say I was flabbergasted and she was very apologetic and offered to whip something up for me. 
I respectfully declined as I was not certain what sort of a dish a waitress/barmaid would be able to prepare in a "closed" kitchen.

What annoyed me even more was that when I related the story to the manageress the following morning, no apology or explanation was offered.

To top it all, there was no bacon in stock in the kitchen for breakfast.

A total disappointment after my first visit to the Royal which I enjoyed tremendously
