The property was clean, comfortable and just what we needed. Great host.

Debbie South Africa

Everything was very neat and clean. Breakfast was out of this world. All our needs were met and some more

Jeanne South Africa

A perfect balance between modern and traditional Karoo living. High quality furnishings and all the amenities you will need. Hosts were very welcoming. Definitely coming back again in the future and looking forward to them opening their own restaurant one day.

Eduard South Africa

Great location - central. Privacy. Great facilities.

Charnellejnel South Africa

The whole experience was exceptional. The staff was professional, friendly and willing to accommodate my preferences. The rooms were spacious, modern with a hint of the Karoo. Excellent value for money. Would recommend Raw to anyone wanting to stay in Oudtshoorn.

Bianca South Africa

I absolutely enjoyed my stay. The breakfast was amazing and the room had everything one needs when travelling.

Tshegofatso South Africa

We spent one night at the Raw Karoo Guest House. We received a warm welcome from Gisela. Raw Karoo is conveniently situated in a nice neighbourhood, the rooms were clean and comfy and offered everything we needed for the night. The choice of breakfast in the morning made our decision making difficult - it was delicious. Thank you for a pleasant stay - we would definitely return if we were travelling through Oudtshoorn again.

Helen South Africa

Beautiful furnished and lovely small touches like a sherry and hot water bottle in the room. Great substantial breakfast. Room and public areas very clean and comfortable. Special care was taken to make sure the room and breakfast room was warm in the freezing weather.
