Overview
Situated in the beautiful wilderness area of the Eastern Cape, the Garden Court Mthatha Hotel is located off the N2 highway between Durban and East London, in close distance to the Mthatha city centre and 17 km from the airport.
The resort town of nearby Port St John's attracts both business and leisure guests staying at the Garden Court Mthatha, which is famous for its almost untouched idyllic scenery, perfect breaking waves and beautiful sandy beaches. The tropical forest and a visit to the Nduli Game Reserve are highly recommended when staying here.
Mthatha is the main town of the King Sabata Dalindyebo Local Municipality in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Mthatha was a military post for the colonial forces in 1882, and the town itself was founded in 1883, along the banks of the Mthatha River. The Mthatha Dam was constructed about eight kilometers upstream of the town.
A branch of the University of Fort Hare was established in the town, and after the independence of the Transkei in 1977 it became the University of Transkei which has since been integrated into the Walter Sisulu University for Technology and Science.
