"Elegantly furnished with style, except breakfast room. We were asked to have breakfast on the terrace, but nobody attended to us, so then we went to the breakfast room and took the coffee with us out ourselves.
After some time one of the staff came to give us a menu for eggs and bacon so finally we got something to eat. In the official breakfast room there were 4 guests and staff eating. There was just one staff for service and it all was a bit confusing!
Otherwise we liked the place very much, specially the dining room was beautiful and the food good, also the staff there was very friendly. We would like to come back again and we can recommend this place."


"Overnight in Graaff Reinet"

(South Africa) Mr Koster

"A very pleasant stay in the charming town of Graaff Reinet. Breakfast and dinner certainly lived up to expectations, and the room was very spacious. Unfortunately the mattress was too soft; otherwise our stay would have been close to perfect."

"Like the advert on TV where the guy goes to the dining room of that well known lodge, in his underwear, I would quite easily have ventured to breakfast in my nightie - sipping my coffee and reading the newspaper! The cat and dog on the premises just added to create an even more homely atmosphere. From the first contact on the telephone to the goodbyes at our departure, the staff remained friendly and accommodating all the way through. Not once did I feel that they were putting on an act to promote business. I would recommend Karoopark Guest House to anyone seeking accommodation, without any hesitation. Keep up the good work!"


"Good"

(Belgium) Mr Hermans

"The rooms were good and clean. The reception was friendly and a big advantage was you could have dinner on site.

"This was our first sleepover in Graaff-Reinet, seeing that we only live a few hundred kilometres away, but we wanted to do sight seeing in and around Graaff-Reinet. Family of ours suggested Karoopark Guest House, they were very satisfied with there stay- over’s.
What really appealed to us was the following:
The friendly welcome we received, showing us around where to eat and relax (pool area and bar), and took us to the room and showed us around (not only give you the key and find the room yourself).
The service from the friendly staff members we received during dinner and breakfast were excellent.
The food served was well prepared and very tasteful. The dinner section and also the breakfast room has a pleasant and welcoming environment.
The room we had was spacious and spanking clean, so was the kitchen and bathroom, with enough clean fresh towels.
The rooms are surrounded by a peaceful garden, with outside table and chairs under the trees, making it special not to be confined to your room when you are not driving around.
We will go back any time and highly recommend it to any traveller who is looking for a guest house in Graaff-Reinet."


"Enjoyable"

(South Africa) Mr Jarrett

"We found our stay at Karoopark Guest House quite enjoyable. Everything we needed was nearby and convenient. It was also nice that the guest house could take letters to the post office for us without us having to worry about them. Many thanks!"


"Great place to stay"

(South Africa) Mr Otto

"Really enjoyed the stay. Although we only stayed for one night, we felt right at home. Whether you need a place for the night or as a base to explore the surrounding area, Karoopark Guest House is the right place to go."


"Quiet and Restful"

(South Africa) Mr Changuion

"The lodge has very spacious rooms and clean. The main building has an excellent bar to enjoy a pre-dinner drink. The staff are friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay again in the future."

"We stayed 2 nights in this establishment. The location is nice, walking distance from town. A touch of paint would do miracles, as it is slightly worn down. Our party consisted of 3 adults. The accommodation offered was 2 adjacent rooms and a bathroom. The biggest room was equipped with 2 beds and a ceiling fan (a must in this climate) but the smallest one did not have a fan. Another negative issue was that to use the bathroom from the bigger room, one had to pass through the other room. If you are travelling with children this might be acceptable, but with adults this is a privacy issue. Breakfast was good."

"We enjoyed our one-night stay at Karoo Park Guest House. It is a well-kept older guest house with several small buildings. The room was clean and nicely furnished, but the bathroom did leave something to be desired. It had a toilet that ran all night and we had to keep the door shut to avoid the noise. However, it was quiet otherwise and there are beautiful gardens to enjoy in the morning sunlight. Our car was parked securely behind the building with a locked gate. We also had a nice dinner in the restaurant, with very good service. We had arrived late, and the staff was still happy to serve us. We would recommend it to other travellers."

"Karoopark Guest house"

(New Zealand) Dr Ron Sandrey

"I rate this establishment as a good run-of-the mill guest house. The best feature was the evening meal facilities, where the dinners were excellent value for money. The room was very large and spacious, and that was the real feature of the place. "

Special mention must be made of the friendly receptionist, the barman and the waitress. They made us fell really welcome.
We had the most delicious dinner and breakfast in a very pleaseant atmosphere.
The bedroom was very comfortable and the ceiling fan was most welcome for the Karoo heat ! The only down point during our relaxing stay were those pesky little
mosquitos ! Next time we shall come prepared for them. Thanks to all at Karoopark - we had a good stay !"


"Pleasant South-Africa"

(Netherlands) Mr Bakker

"It was a pleasant stay, friendly people nice, atmosphere, and a wonderful city. Spacious room, clean, and not missing a thing.
Hope to come back some time in the near future.

"Fantastic Stay"

(South Africa) Mrs R Lyons

"Karoopark Guest House was home from home. The luxury room had a beautiful set up and friendly and assisting staff. The food was delicious. A definite place to stop over or spend a few days to discover the beautiful Graaff Reinnete.
Thanks for a memorable visit. Reneé Lyons"

"On our drive from Jo'burg to Cape Town our family (dad, mom and 2 children) spent the evening and one night at the Karoopark Guest House. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted and quickly shown around and to our room. We were nicely accommodated and found our stay of only one night to be very nice. We took dinner in the dinning room and must say it was excellent. Our sleep was excellent and our breakfest the next morning was again a very pleasant experience.

The town itself was a nice place to visit and we did enjoy an evening drive/hike in the Valley of Desolation. We would again make these same arrangements if in the area. Thanks to Room for Africa we had a most memorable experience. Both our children 13 and 10 loved it. What more could you ask for. Making arrangements for a trip like this on your own from so far away would be impossible without the help of a site like Rooms for Africa.

We also used them in Cape Town and again were pleased with excellent accommodations.

Keep up the good work!"


"Adequate acommodations"

(United States) Ms Bunyard

"The rooms and location were fine for travelers. However, the food is nothing to be impressed with. The Karoo hosts tour groups so the menu is set and not that good. Eat elsewhere. "
