The room was clean and in an exceptional condition. The bathroom was perfect as well. We were still on the road and couldn't check it at the allocated check in time. We were given a courtesy to find out what time we would be arriving and there was someone waiting to check us in, albeit quite late in the evening. Thanks a MILL for this, much appreciated !!!

We arrived at night and Herman was so kind to wait for us to let us in. Besides that everything was very clean and comfy. The rooms were very nice and the hosts were always ready to help us. They also provided some water and a little snack. It was also very hygienic and the wifi was very good. Can recommend!

This is probably the 3rd or 4th time I stayed here. It has become my default stop-over when travelling from Johannesburg to Cape Town. It's a full day's drive from Jnb, leaving me with only a few hours of driving the next day. The rooms are well out of earshot from the main road, and the quiet and tranquility after a long drive is amazing. I saw a giraffe right in the road as I was driving to my cabin, and the next morning there was a little Springbok on the lawn having its breakfast when I woke up. It is also only ten minutes from Beaufort West, so good dinner is always within easy driving distance.

It’s a haven of peace, everything is perfect! Prince Albert is the place that reminds me of my childhood. What a joy to have been so well received, I recommend this establishment as the best in the city and as a hotel professional on the Côte d'Azur I know what I am saying. Don't change anything, thank you very much to the staff for the impeccable service. All that’s missing is a pétanque court and some pastis! Amazing.

This was our second time visiting, and it was just as special as the first. The location is superb. the self game drive was great fun. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The main reason we travelled here was because the food, without a doubt, was the best we had in South Africa in 2020 and Happy to say again in 2024. We look forward to visiting again.

History behind the town and the location is great. Makes the following day's travel short and gives you time to stop along the route at the other towns. Recommend travellers book Beaufort as part of their trip.

It was lovely to be part of an awesome and rich history and to explore the museum, transport museum and the whole little town - so very interesting and one can walk through the whole town within an hour! The Hotel and pub were outstanding with their meals. It was great to go on the world's shortest tour on the red bus. It is full of such an interesting history and everything makes one feel that one is back in the 1800's but at the same time it is a peaceful town where one could truly "rest"! Unfortunately we didn't see/hear any ghosts and we were not able to see inside the Courthouse, Pink Chapel, Logan's Tweedside Lodge and Schreiber's cottage! We also couldn't find the cemetry.

A quaint and quirky little town in the Karoo, famed for its terrible flash flood in 1981, which killed 104 residents, and all but wiped out the town. We tried to visit the Flood Museum but it turned out to be closed on Friday afternoons, which was exactly when we went to visit it. The Grand Hotel was wonderful! We had the best pizzas ever there on Friday evening (pizza night!) and it was such a friendly place. We were in Laingsburg for the Laingsburg Karoo Maratohn, a delightful low key running event thought the truly spectacular stunningly beautuful scenery of the Karoo. We loved it!

Uniondale was the centre point of our journey distance wise - so convenient . Also we had not been there before so it made an interesting stop over. Scenery was stunning and the road excellent. Hotel built in 1832 (I understand). Uniondale is about 14 kms off main road and entry and exit are through two mountain passes which were most attractive.

Travalia is a little oasis in the Greater Karoo, just when your trip is too long this little jewel appears on your horizon. Apartment was clean and had all the facilities you need. If you don't want to braai under your nice veranda, you can make a booking at the restaurant. Or, if you want to braai under the Karoo milky way, you can order in advance a good braai pack, salad and "braaibroodjies". For breakfast you can make use of the Travalia Padstal where you can enjoy a traditional breakfast or a variety of pies. The shop stocks also Karoo lamb packs as well as many treats and gifts.

Merweville is a beautiful town! Friendly community.

Merweville is a beautiful town! Friendly community. The town is very clean and neat. The best coffee and breakfast at Die Boekklub with a shop to buy presents for family at home. There is a nougat factory as well - Karoo Blessings, unfortunately they were closed when we passed through, but we could find their yummy treats at "Die Boekklub" in town. The Graveyard is well looked after, we visited a family grave and we were very impressed! Everywhere you drive, people will greet you with a friendly smile! It gives you a warm feeling of caring! Loved the town.

Wonderful location, beautiful renovation of old house.

Wonderful location, beautiful renovation of old house. Extremely well equipped kitchen and wonderful braai area. Be aware that the kitchen and braai patio are communal. There is only a kettle and microwave in the bedroom. The rooms are upstairs, all luggage must be carried up. Rooms are spartan except for very comfortable bed - no wardrobe, tables, chest of drawers. Shower is modern, spacious but not hot water. Beautiful walks on farm, peaceful and extremely restful. Fan in bedroom, insect repellent, but no heating facilities.

The location is very good The room very Comfortable and neat If you want to stay there without breakfast might be a better idea We paid for breakfast but did not eat.Menu very poor indeed..The owner should make sure all is set in the bedroom before guest arrives .Hand towels are a.must.Toilet rolls are a must.Sugar for tea is a must.and if you pay for breakfast it should be provided.not just scrambled eggs and boerovorce

It certainly felt like a real life experience of a bygone era. Enjoyed the car museum, the old red bus, and just walking down the street and observing and visiting the various buildings. Enjoyed a good coffee, and delicious cake at the Coffee House.

The flood museum is a must as this gives you an insight how people came together under the most difficult circumstances. As we only stayed overnight we had a quick lunch at a coffee shop next to the museum. We found the town to be very clean and neat - head up to all for this.
