"Set in a quiet residential area near the Oranje river, Libbys Lodge offers a nice recluse for a weary traveller. Despite being near a main road, it is quiet enough and has the expected pool to allow one to cool down in the Northern Cape heat. The rooms were well kept and one walks out into a lovely patio that overlooks the pool. A braai area is available for those willing to engage in the art of fire making and grilling some meat. A pleasant stay for day or two.

"Upon our arrival we found our room lovely, smelling fresh and clean. Loved the sweeties and a real bonus was the fresh milk (Parmalat long life) I hate having tea with powder milk so this was really nice. At breakfast the next morning we commented on the homemade marmalade and asked if we could buy some upon which our hostess replied she has a lady making jam for her and she does not sell to the public but she will see if she can find us a bottle. We left and upon our return a week later, it was like an oasis after the Kalahari Desert, we spent a week in Kgalagadi but that is another story.

Again our room was fresh and lovely, the sweeties were there but, to my amazement, she remembered we asked for marmalade and there it was - she managed to find us a bottle. Now if that is not good service then I don't know what is.

I will without a doubt recommend Libby's Lodge - it really is the little things that makes a difference. Thank you also to Rooms for Africa for managing our booking so efficiently"


"Excellent"

(Namibia) van Wyk | 6 April 2015

"Libby's Lodge is a lovely haven, conveniently located in a residential area near a new shopping mall in Upington. Their rooms are comfortable and well-appointed, the breakfast area is spanking clean, and the pool is invitingly sparkling. There are discreet garden areas where one can have a braai or just enjoy cooling off in the shade in lovely surroundings. This place is a gem. It makes a very relaxing stopover on the way to or from Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, or if you are just looking for an overnight accommodation in transit in the Northern Cape, this is the place to be greeted by friendly people who aim to please."
