TWO Keg Country Inn hotels, scheduled to open in March, have had to delay opening due to brand repositioning within the company.
Vivienne Bervoets, Keg's spokesperson, says the Mount Currie Inn in Kokstad will now open in April and Ladysmith's Royal Hotel will open in May.
These will be the company's fourth and fifth properties respectively, since it expanded its interests from English pubs into the small hotel market last year.
According to Bervoets, there has been a lot of interest in the group, with several applications received from small three-star country hotels for management and re-branding under the Keg Country Inn brand.
