Funny, South Africa

Breakfast is very good and the cigar lounge is a nice touch.

Delboyza, South Africa

The hotel is pristine with a highly impressive facility from dining room, to personal bedroom, bar and cigar lounge. Staying there was truly memorable. The chef and waitstaff were top notch.

Nancy, United States of America

The place is fantastic, for a big resort they are very eco conscious and it looks like a small village. Rooms are big, and bathroom is fantastic. Staff is really nice. Restaurant is great, great value for money & for the quality. For New Year Eve, the set menu was excellent and very affordable. Breakfast was good quality as well and everything you can possibly look for (except fresh juice, which would have been a great plus). There’s a lot of history around. We had one of the swimming pools almost for ourselves.

Ziad, Lebanon

The location, parking facilities and amenities are perfect for a stop over between destinations. It’s like an oasis for weary travelers. The restaurant is definitely something special and should not be skipped. Decor, architecture all amazing! We May stay longer next time and explore The town a bit.

They upgraded our room without any charges, a rarity in today's 'business' world. They also went out of their way to accommodate our Vegan breakfast requests. This has to be one of the best value-for-money places to stay in Graaff-Reinet. Highly recommended.

“Historical boutique hotel with huge breakfast offered”
- • Leisure trip

- • Standard Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
Though Drostdy Hotel is smack in the middle of the city center, the town itself at night is a little weird and strangely underpopulated. Not ideal for a random pleasure stroll.
Amazingly large and tasty breakfast selection. We appreciated that the very friendly staff was part of a program of training youth from underserved and underprivileged areas in South Africa. Bed quite comfortable, and bathroom quite spacious. Perfect location if one is visiting Graaff-Reinet.

“One night at the Drostdy Hotel”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Budget Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
The only problem was the blocked drain in the shower, but I think due to water shortages and due to the high iron content in the water they do experience plumbing issues
I loved the tranquility and peace at the Drostdy. The plumbing in my room was blocked so they upgraded me to an executive suite, with the least possible disruption, which was much appreciated. The suite was wonderful, with a huge designer bathroom, and own private patio, chair and tables to sit outside and take in the Karoo sunset. I also went for a Spa treatment at the Africology spa - it was divine - and I was please with the oversized nightgowns and towels, which were extremely comfortable and luxurious. The wine and food at dinner in the restaurant was superb, and the breakfast sublime

The breakfast was delicious and a big variaty of food. Although the dried fruit was very very dried out and hard, I suggest that they stew it or use fresh dried fruit. The hot breakfast was great. The stay in the Hotel was very pleasant. we used it in the past and wil stay there again. Thank you for the friendliness of all staff.
