We had such a wonderful stay! The accommodation was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. Everything we needed was provided, and the attention to detail really made it feel like a home away from home. The host was warm, welcoming, and always quick to assist with anything we needed. The location was perfect and peaceful yet close to everything. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. Can’t wait to come back!

Everything. The setting is idyllic and the surroundings are beyond beautiful. It cannot be beaten as a place to unwind. Everything is of excellent quality and the bed is very comfortable. Simphiwe's welcome set the tone for a great few days. The complimentary roosterkoek the first evening was delicious and such a welcoming touch.

The place is laid back, cows on the road, uber not operational but it is possible to walk everywhere. There is urban houses and sort of rural infrastructure. It can be too hot, save to bring a sun hat. I had planned my trip, was kept sufficiently busy and I visited two families. will definitely do the trip again and will recommend to anyone who is adventures at heart.

We found Makhanda has just about all we need... shopping mall, ate at Spurs twice then wanting something a lil more spicy found the Thai/Chinese takeaway. It's not too busy, not too built up therefore pollution levels seemed low. The history of local people exposed. Rhodes university is a beautiful landmark for all to see.

“I visited a town in South Africa called Grahamstown, also known as Makhanda. It is a beautiful place. At first, it looks small, but it has very good schools and University there . It is also easy to get around, and the security there is very good. People can walk freely and enjoy the town.”

The historical aspects were fascinating, especially the old Churches and cathedrals. These are largely untouched from the general significant decline in basic services. We were only there for a sporting event. Not sure it is a place we would consider a holiday destination.

Grahamstown has amazing old buildings and history.

Grahamstown has amazing old buildings and history. BUT the roads are a disaster !! Giant potholes everywhere and some of the roads you have to actually look for the tar that is left. The municipality should be ashamed. African road between 3 biggest private schools is abysmal

It is a town where one can shop around. The roads are so shocking, there are potholes everywhere and they are bad. I was so worried about my tyres. That is the only reason that would make me not to visit Grahamstown, roads are very bad.

Very neat with a lot of attention to detail. There were enough blankets and a well-equipped kitchen. The coffee and tea, rusks and milk in the fridge was a bonus upon arrival. ♥️ The accommodation was in a quiet area but within minutes' reach of attractions, the university, shops, etc. The hosts compiled an excellent guide of "where to eat and what to visit" with general information about Grahamstown.

The house was homey and tidy, and we enjoyed our stay. The complementary coffee and rusks were also nice, and the gowns kept us warm as it was chilly in Grahamstown on those particular evenings. The guest house has borehole water, it is close to the Rhodes University campus and town.

Despite there being an electricity outage which lasted the whole night, the hotel staff managed to still provide breakfast for its guests. The hardworking staff and the hotel must be commended for that. The location is in the city centre so it’s great if you don’t have a vehicle.
