I have only great things to say about this property, our room was something out of a novel, clean, spacious, and the balcony off the front was the cherry on top. And of course all the staff were incredible.

Unique, very friendly and personal
We unfortunately only spent one night in this fabulous hotel, but we definitely plan to return! It is just SO interesting, vibey, friendly and comfortable. The historic building, art everywhere, magnificent huge room - all wonderful!! A bathroom you could dance in. Lovely back garden. Huge own private balcony. We had the Baines room, one of the ten large rooms. The owners are super friendly and treat guests like old friends. We'll be back!

Quirky Art Hotel on Route 62
We have always enjoyed our stays at this wonderful hotel in Barrydale. It has new super-friendly owners who have done wonderful renovations. The staff are all amazing. Dinner and breakfast where both delicious. Next time we'll stay 2 nights for sure.

This hotel has been in operation since 1866. It is old, floors are creeky and it has no air conditioning. Shower and sink were obviously added later to the rooms. To that I say ‘who cares!’ This place is awesome. So beautiful, so cool. The art is great, the property is great, the staff is super friendly and helpful. Last night the hotel bar and restaurant were both full and everyone was having a good time. The food was excellent by the way. Our room faces the mountains and we have a wonderful view of it from our own little balcony. Love it here!

Holiday Joy and Famly Fun
A very unique hotel and a wonderful experience. The art is amazing and there are lots of comfortable spots to sit and read or just relax. the food is excellent. Unfortunately, the Springbok pie pastry was chewy as it was probably warmed in a microwave oven, which is such a pity.

Overall lovely, couple of areas for improvement
Amazing place and lovely staff. It’s a real experience. The standard rooms are very basic with a shower in the room. The superior rooms are lovely (wish they had a fridge) but overpriced I felt. The breakfast is great. The restaurant food is slightly hit and miss and promises more than it delivered. The pool area is beautiful and there is a (slightly neglected) kids area.

Off the beaten track
The hotel is a step back in time. If you are looking for a luxury hotel then this isn’t for you. If you want a comfy bed, great meal and outstanding service then the the Karoo art hotel fits the bill. We really enjoyed our night here, in fact we wish we had more time and could have stayed longer. It’s not 5 star but it had everything we needed and just the drive to get there was worth the stay.

The restaurant was closed at the time (off season) of our stay which was disappointing. This was not disclosed at the time of booking.
