Lovely stay - looked after so well - we will be back for longer next time
Pros:

From the moment we arrived the staff took extra care of us ! The proximity to the Fossil museum and Church- an easy walk from the hotel. The little extra touches so appreciated.

Cons:

The door to the rooms are tricky to close- so quite noisy early in the morning when anyone leaves .. lots of banging as they try and close the door

Wonderful historic hotel in a nice Karoo town
Pros:

A wonderful place to stay in a nice Karoo town. Wonderful, large, comfortable rooms with very comfotable beds in a historic setting. Excellent food and service in the restaurant for dinner as well as breakfast. Generally a very friendly and helpful staff. It was nice returning here after more than 25 years.
