We stayed there for just one night to attend a function in Underberg,so was just needing a bed.Therefore did not use the facility.However did notice the grounds of the hotel were well kept and the pool looked clean and safe.Staff were very friendly and helpful.We arrived early and they were able to check us in and rooms were ready.the rooms and hotel are clean and comfortable.Unfortunately no hot water in the morning but that could have been because another room had drained the geyser just before we had a bath.Underberg and Himeville’s accommodation prices are pretty high so I think the price for Himeville arms was very reasonably priced.The property had secure parking and there was a security guard who was incredibly helpful.

I’d like to be kinder: this should be an olde worlde classic- built in 1904, it has good bones. But the management has let things run down and failed to invest in upgrades. No WiFi available, pool is small and green with algae; breakfast expensive and slow. All over, could be a lot better managed. I’d give it a 4.

Business trip - over all acceptable.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was absolutely lovely and the coffee was great. We were a bit disappointed that the TV was broken. TV is a comfort looked forward to at the end of a hard day when working away from home. Bedside lamp shades need to be replaced as they are crumbling. The shower in the bath needs a shower curtain or the floor ends up flooded. Otherwise an adequate stay if you are working in the area.

Himeville Booking in Disappointment
Reservation issues as receptionist could not find my booking and payment. My mobile had gone flat so I couldn't access my confirmation details. What made matters worse was the fact that I was dog tired after a long drive and the receptionist would not hand over the keys without payment. This misunderstanding was rectified the next morning but the damage was done. Trainee staff should be supervised at all times
