The Maropeng Boutique Hotel is perfectly located in the heart of the UNESCO-protected Cradle of Humankind, adjacent to the region's official Visitor's Centre and museum, Maropeng. Bookings at the hotel include a ticket to both the Maropeng visitor's centre and for the tour of the nearby Sterkfontein Caves (where famous hominids such as Mrs Ples were discovered). The hotel has been designed to blend into the surrounding countryside, while also allowing for immense, uninterrupted views of the countryside.  Each guest room comes endowed with full-length windows and terraces looking out across the expansive grasslands of the Cradle towards the Magaliesberg mountain ranges in the distance, particularly beautiful at sunset.
