See more photographs The Royal Hotel in Riebeek Kasteel is the oldest licensed hotel of the Western Cape and was built in 1862. This now fully restored heritage building is one of the few hotels left of that particular colonial era of South Africa. Famous visitors in history were Jan Smuts and Daniel Malan, both from the Riebeek Valley and both prime ministers of South Africa during troubled times.
