Gateside Guesthouse is in a beautiful setting in Hilton with a spectacular view. The staff are warm, welcoming and very helpful, providing an excellent service. Should I be required to travel to Pietermaritzburg again, I would not hesitate to check in at Gatehouse Guesthouse again.

It was a very beautiful stay. The owners are very friendly and helpful. We arrived late around 23:00 when check in was closed, but the owner directed us on what to do and where to via WhatsApp which was very helpful. The place is beautiful with a view of the Hilton mountains and pine trees. Will definitely recommend to friends and family... As well as visit again. Thank you.

Wonderful friendly welcome on arrival and a call to check what time that would be. Room was very neat and clean and had the biggest, most cumfi bed. We opted for the self catering option but when we were offered brekkie we decided why not and so glad we did - lovely selection of foods, made to order, such good value for the price. Thanks again for a wonderful stay and another shout out to the wonderful staff for making our stay so pleasant. Kind Regards, Leigh

Absolutely love this place. Phillipa is so warm and and a great hostess. The rooms are bright and very comfortable. Love the shaded patio in the evenings where guest can mingle, and have a braai (BBQ). Internet access was also good. Will keep on going back.
