Lovely old building in the centre of town providing crisp, clean linen on a comfortable bed in a very spacious room with VERY high ceilings! Easy walking to many restaurants and other interesting places. Also drive just 10km's out of town to see the Valley of Desolation.

The Guest House is perfect for an overnight stop, both in its location and services it offers. Love that they have a restuarant on the premises and the food is really good, esp the Karroo Lamb Rooms are comfortable

The Karoopark is a guesthouse set in a garden environment. We had rooms 19 and 20, and although a little spartan they were certainly adequate. The rooms had ceiling fan, modern air conditioning, and a wall mounted panel heater as well as a basic small TV with the 4 free-to-air channels. The ensuite shower room had a good sized walk-in...

The "welcome" at reception was like an ice-cold shower, a very arrogant lady. We asked to see a room before taking it (luckily! because it was not worth the R950 for 3 without breakfast). Asking to see the room was apparently already too much of a service requested, very unfriendly. The rooms are dark and furniture is old, the bathrooms... More

Nice rooms with clean bathroom. Comfortable bed, with swimming pool to cool off on hot days. Restaurant serves very good local fare including Karoo lamb & potjie (stew). Decent breakfast is also offered. Very friendly staff & owner. Niue-Bethesda & Valley of Desolation are places worth visiting & are 45 mins & 25 mins away respectively by car. Streets boast... More

The Karoo Guest House is run by a local family in the Karoo, which is the most serene region of South Africa. The dad and Chantelle, his daughter, are both extremely knowledgable on safari, species, nature, and cultural history, which is why it is so worth going here. This was by far my favorite experience in South Africa, because I... More

Much below expectations ...not even the basic necessities like dressing mirror, bathing soaps, etc, were not provided. Inadequate small fans, poor hygiene of rooms, no mosquito repellent. Unfriendly and apathetic behaviour. Not worth value of money.
