Mount Sheba Rainforest Hotel & Resort, hotel in Pilgrimʼs Rest

Mount Sheba is located 30 minutes' drive from the historical town of Pilgrim's Rest. Surrounded by rain forest, the hotel offers a variety of leisure activities.

The views! It is a beautiful and peaceful resort. Perfect for a complete getaway for that occasionally needed serenity. There is a fire place for which they provide wood, so absolutely perfect for our colder days travel. The wood burns quickly and so the fire didn’t last. This was helpful, along with the hot water bottles which they provided. An electric blanket and slow burning wood(or more wood) would’ve been much better because the houses get extremely cold. However, I would definitely go back.

The restaurant was very well priced and the food excellently prepared. We chose to only eat there (rather than self catering even). The Spa was also wonderful and ALL the staff were so friendly and helpful. We could honestly not fault a thing.

    Pilgrims rest is an old gold mining town that has been preserved as a living museum. Very interesting looking around the buildings and village. Watch out if you park car as the locals have a tendancy to wash the vehicle without asking and then charge you. If you do get caught out only pay 80 rand

    The roads have too many potholes and this extend the duration of the trip. Do not drive at night. There's a lot to do in Pilgrims Rest, it's a tourist destination. If driving from Jozi, its a long drive

    It was really a great surprise esp. after many years of not operating and very dangerous. The town upgraded and I loved the teagarden we had lunch at. The pottery and stain glass shop. The people so friendly and the place really clean all over. My husband had trout and I had a chicken mayo pancake. He had a mampoer milkshake-excellent and I had a lovely coffee.

    We enjoyed our short stay in Pilgrim's Rest.

    We enjoyed our short stay in Pilgrim's Rest. We arrived a little late in the day due to long delays due to roadworks. Most tourist attractions closed at 4pm so we couldn't explore that afternoon. They opened again at 9am, so we delayed our departure to explore a little, but didn't do the attractions justice. We did however enjoy our drink and supper in one of the local pubs and enjoyed our interactions with the friendly locals.

    If a cultural tour is what you are looking for the. The town is perfect to have a blast form the past. It is rather quiet, but an opportunity to stay in the town was great for someone that really enjoys South African history.

    We liked the colorful old look to the room. They really do try and keep it as original as possible. The staff was friendly. The location is good. The Hotel is surrounded by many museums. Very interesting. We visited the Old Cemetery and a very nice pub in Lower Pilgrimsrest. One day is not enough to spend in Pilgrimsrest!

    The rooms are in good condition - fresh and clean despite the hotel being quiet for so long and still recovering from the fall-out of Covid. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The barman (Ken) entertained our group well and made for a fun evening with our friends. Parking (secure) was easy and spacious and covered.

    This is a beautiful location with several walks to waterfalls. Both the evening meals at the hotel and the meals at the poolside cafe/breakfast room were excellent.
