The Cathedral Peak hotel is a delight to stay at with great rooms, tasty food and excellent service from the staff. The mountains and trails are amazing and the whole experience 5 stars. Plan your visit to arrive before sunset since road to the hotel can be challenging but perfectly safe.

The location is fantastic. The staff are friendly, welcoming and the service was very efficient. The room was very clean and had plenty of space to store clothes and belongings. We both enjoyed the food and there was plenty of meat options. My partner is pescatarian and would have welcomed some vegetarian sausages options at breakfast. Otherwise the food was good quality and well presented. Overall a super hotel, great location and a very relaxing time. When we booked our room said limited views of the berg but that want quite true. Standing on the balcony we had almost unlimited views!

Stunning location
After taking a long slow drive to get to the hotel, the views of the mountains made it all worth it! Everything about the hotel and service were excellent. Will definitely try to come back here in future and try the loads of activities I did not have time for this time around.
