Their Bolognese sauce is delightful with the home made pasta. Their wine cellar filled with great wines. I am heading back there. Only... More

It was the perfect place to end my safari trip in South Africa, before returning home to Italy. The service is great and the people are super. I wish that I was booked for 2 days and not only 1. It would have been the perfect stop even before my safari , so that I could have acclimatised first then... More

The rooms at this guest house are of an exeptional quality with attention to detail in the little things like great quality linen and towels.

We spent a single night here before a trip on the Rovos Rail, which seems to be a common reason to stay at 131 Herbert Baker. They readily accommodated our early check-in after our flight. Facilities: The room was very comfortable (with a huge bathroom), the wifi worked well, and the views from the restaurant were nice (save for the... More

One of the nicest hotels I have found in many years travelling - not particularly cheap but well worth it. Reception was most helpful, room was very comfortable, food was excellent. Location offered lovely views of Pretoria's jacarandas.

We stayed at 131 on Herbert Baker after going to Notten's Bush Camp for a 3 day safari. We only spent one night there, before going to the Pretoria station for our Rovos Rail trip to Victoria Falls.
