Hidden Gem

Lovely room, comfortable bed with super soft linen. We slipped into a deep sleep on a marshmallow cloud after a long drive. Great hospitality from our host.

Beautiful and Tastefully furnished New rooms

The new Annexe is beautifully updates in an old Karoo house and yard. It's quieter than the rooms in centre of Colesberg, and you can stroll inside the large yard area with cool outdoor spaces in the shade. Rooms were very comfortable, good linen, mattress and cushions with modern bathrooms and fittings nicely blended with old pieces. Only one suggestion, add rails for the elderly in the glassed in showers that are quite slippery?

Comfortable and good rest

Great clean rooms with beautiful stylish bathroom and sleeping area with incredible comfortable bed. Only thing was that the walls could be better soundproofed due to noise from neighbors easily heard all round.

The ants in my bed weren't in my imagination

Very nice extension to the hotel. However, two issues need to be addressed: house rules about noise after 10pm must be communicated and the rooms need fumigation.
