What is there not to like... it was the most cosy and perfectly equipped stay away from the buzz. We had a sleepover for only one night during our road trip, but the rest and memories we have will forever be part of our story!

Very nice and quite area. Very friendly hosts. The light in the bathroom was pretty dark, it could use some new lightbulbs. But besides that very spacious room 👍

Great location for overnight travel between Joburg and Cape Town. Beautiful venue, perfectly appointed, great care in decor, and rooms have everything you need - if not more. The braai facility was perfect as were the lamb chops, braaibroodjies and salads.

This was just a quick over-night stay, but the old house lodge was perfect. Clean, quiet, safe, friendly staff and a large room and comfortable shower. Just what was needed. Would happily stay here again in the future.

History behind the town and the location is great.

History behind the town and the location is great. Makes the following day's travel short and gives you time to stop along the route at the other towns. Recommend travellers book Beaufort as part of their trip.

A beautiful small town, with a wonderful atmosphere, good restaurants and shops, especially the Country Stay! We ate at the Prins Albert Cafe,received a warm welcome there from Quentin, and ate good food. But the Country Stay was the icing on the cake. Coleen and Vanessa made us feel at home and spoilt us. The staff there were delightful, the whole place beautifully done with gorgeous furniture, linen, curtains, and the garden was a beautiful spot to sunbathe in, full of plants, birds and a pool. A heavenly spot.

I loved the Karoo nature.

I loved the Karoo nature. The owner welcomed us with delicious homemade bread, butter, and jam, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Firewood, charcoal, and firelighters are also available for purchase on the property. Our kids were excited to see several wild animals, including monkeys, springbok, and other small wildlife. The views were incredible, the air was cool and refreshing, and the use of rainwater and fully off-grid systems made the stay exactly what we were looking for. Free Wi-Fi was available, which was very helpful as there is no cell phone reception in the area.

If you like history it's a lovely place to stay for a night or two. Trains come through the town, if that is your thing. 2 museums both worth a look. Cute gift shop and coffee shop Lovely old bar Not much else London bus is brilliant, does a 10 minute tour of the town

We always sleep over at Travalia when traveling to Cape Town, it is a welcome rest after a long day on the road. Rooms are great and you can even arrange to have a braai at your chalet, they light the fire and provide meat, salads and "braaibroodjies"

A pretty Klein Karoo town.

A pretty Klein Karoo town. There is the sense, however, that most people don't stay too long as it's located right at the foot of the Prince Alfred Pass, which people rush to go over to their destinations. So, Uniondale is a bit overlooked. Getting around is easy, it's tiny so you can walk everywhere.

Wonderful location, beautiful renovation of old house.

Wonderful location, beautiful renovation of old house. Extremely well equipped kitchen and wonderful braai area. Be aware that the kitchen and braai patio are communal. There is only a kettle and microwave in the bedroom. The rooms are upstairs, all luggage must be carried up. Rooms are spartan except for very comfortable bed - no wardrobe, tables, chest of drawers. Shower is modern, spacious but not hot water. Beautiful walks on farm, peaceful and extremely restful. Fan in bedroom, insect repellent, but no heating facilities.

Merweville is a beautiful town! Friendly community.

Merweville is a beautiful town! Friendly community. The town is very clean and neat. The best coffee and breakfast at Die Boekklub with a shop to buy presents for family at home. There is a nougat factory as well - Karoo Blessings, unfortunately they were closed when we passed through, but we could find their yummy treats at "Die Boekklub" in town. The Graveyard is well looked after, we visited a family grave and we were very impressed! Everywhere you drive, people will greet you with a friendly smile! It gives you a warm feeling of caring! Loved the town.

The location is very good The room very Comfortable and neat If you want to stay there without breakfast might be a better idea We paid for breakfast but did not eat.Menu very poor indeed..The owner should make sure all is set in the bedroom before guest arrives .Hand towels are a.must.Toilet rolls are a must.Sugar for tea is a must.and if you pay for breakfast it should be provided.not just scrambled eggs and boerovorce

My interest in Prince Albert peaked from a series filmed there - Recipes for Love and Murder. Unfortunately our stay was over the Christmas break and the town was filled to the brim. A sundowner at the Swartberg Hotel Ladies Bar led to the discovery of this charming Hotel. Dinner across the road at the "Rude Chef" did not disappoint! The owner manager was indeed RUDE and so was the staff member who served us. While the food was good the ambience and service was very poor! Next time I will be sure to book long in advance for dinner reservations at one of the other renowned restaurants.
