The Royal Courtyard previously known as The Royal Hotel, is situated in central town at Matatiele next to the Pick N Pay Supermarket. It is close to shopping centers, banks, medical facilities and adjacent to the Magistrates Courts and Municipality Offices. The older portion of the hotel was built in 1919 and the site is rich in history.
It is said that the last formal duel in South Africa took place behind the hotel. The establishment was purchased by the present owners in 2004 and has been undergoing extensive renovations, upgrading and additions.
