Drostdy Hotel

We love staying at this hotel, we have been loyal guests for years and for a reason. The staff is so friendly and kind, the food is fantastic, the rooms are luxurious and the position in town is very convenient. It is truly a special place, and an amazing experience. They put thought into everything, down to leaving a welcome note and snacks in your room before you arrive. Everything is immaculate and spotless - there is no concern at all regarding the cleanliness of the hotel. True luxury in the Karoo. Even when they were busy, they made efforts to make us comfortable. When the restaurant was busy on the 1st of January, they offered us a seat at the bar with complimentary bubbles. They really do go the extra mile to make you feel at home, away from home. We are picky travellers, and we could not recommend this wonderful hotel enough. A big thank you to the team for starting our 2025 on such a high note.

The staff was exceptionally nice, the restaurant was very good and they have a lovely wine selection! We were surprised by the staff with a bottle of Brut in our room, after we returned from our dinner, as we were on our honeymoon. Handwritten notes from the staff and flowers on the bed; those things really make your stay memorable! The room itself was big, the bed was super comfortable (I think the most comfortable we’ve had in South Africa) and the overall atmosphere was lovely. The architecture and interior design of the whole accommodation makes you feel like your in a historic Dutch town (for the Dutchmen amongst us: it’s quite like Arnhem’s Openluchtmuseum). Additionally, we felt safe in the town, which is not the case in every place when you’re travelling to SA. I would highly recommend a stay in this hotel!

We needed 2 rooms as our daughter, 6 and 8, were with us. They accommodated us in a "cottage" that had 1 entrance and two separate rooms off it - our daughters loved having their own room the same and Mom & Dad. Everything was in the room that we needed. Our daughters made us coffee in the morning and brought it to us. The breakfast was great. The manager went out of his way to give our daughters crumpets with honey and strawberries, thank you.

We loved our stay. Property is beautiful and peacful. We readllly did relax here. Staff friendly. Food was amazing. Our Bottle of green juice broke in our car and the staff assisted us with the clean up when they really didnt have to.

Well appointed, we had an issue with the TV they came and sorted it out immediately. Booking a table for dinner was easy and professional. Room service drinks were served promptly. All staff were polite, friendly and professional.
