We recently stayed at Affinity Guest House on our way both to and from The Kgalagadi Reserve. what a super place. The bedroom was large and well appointed with all we needed to make tea and coffee. Wifi worked well and the rooms were spotlessly clean. A lovely veranda outside our bedroom overlooked the Orange River. Staff and owners could... More

My room opened out onto a wide terrace at the back, overlooking gardens and the Orange River. Tea and coffee were provided, and the whole place was spotlessly clean. I was with a small tour group, and we occupied all 4 downstairs rooms overlooking the river. In the evening we had a braai while watching the light fade. The only... More

Clean, spacious, well equipped rooms with wifi, and a relaxed ambiance. Our room over looked the Orange River and we joined the bird watchers on the veranda. Helpful staff and a delicious breakfast gets the day off to a good start.

We did not arrive until 10 pm. The room was large and we had a huge patio that over looked the Orange river. TV and Internet were available. The yard was surrounded by a gate and we were able to park our vehicle inside. It was fairly easy to find and close to a shopping area in Upington. The breakfast... More

The view is lovely, looking over the Orange River, your vehicle is safe at night, the breakfasts are excellent and you get a restful sleep as there is minimal noise at night. The rooms are a bit old-fashioned but they are large and you get a fridge - overall a very good place to stay while on business or on... More

We stayed for 1 night en route to Kgalagadi and vowed to come back and stay for longer! View over the Orange River is just gorgeous and the accommodation is clean and spacious. Location is perfect - a block away from places to shop and eat on the one side and serene river frontage on the other side. Secure parking... More

A room overlooking the river is a must! The view is really wonderful. Our room was clean, spacious and comfortable. There is secure parking. Staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good and as a previous reviewer said... the dining room overlooks the river and what a great way to start your day!

Location: Wonderful, most of the 27 rooms have a view of the Orange River. Shared balcony on the first floor. Generally centrally located in Upington and restaurants are within walking distance. Service: The staff are VERY friendly, but not overly so. They will leave you to do your own thing if you do not want to ask of chat. Lots... More
