The town has a number of interesting shops for homeware, clothing and home-produced preserves and food stuffs. There is a good range of restaurants and we enjoyed our meals at Clementine's, Gosto and the Clarens Brewery. Most places are to be found around the central grassy square and they are very easy to access..

Clarens has its own special charm and uniqueness.
Clarens has its own special charm and uniqueness. People are friendly and one feels safe there. Its in beautiful surroundings and the shops around the square are very cool to walk around and just chill.

Clarens is over commercialised.
Clarens is over commercialised. It mostly consists of numerous shops consisting of items you can find in many other places. The Emporium was a favourite. Excellent owner with a lot of details on the figuribes sold there. I thoroughly enjoyed buying my Burmese figure there. The art galleries are a must. Personally Clarens for me is more of a stop to go hiking and go to Golden Gate. It is too busy, bad roads - and I am used to potholes. The Protea hotel in the middle of town was a let down. Such a big hotel in nature was unnecessary. If you want to walk and just look at shops the town will work for you. Personally for me this is a good area to stop and go hiking and take a break from the city but other than that not somewhere I will visit frequently.Olivia de BruynSouth Africa - 8.0Scored 8.0

The hiking trails around Clarens are very well worth while doing and are not too strenuous, provided that you keep to the ones lower down the mountainside. The town square is where it all happens and is a lovely buzz. Food outlets are good and plentiful.HanlonSouth Africa - 10Scored 10
The Clarens Conservancy is well looked after.
The Clarens Conservancy is well looked after. We paid R40 for a map and R30 each for a 7-day ticket and the money is well used to maintain a wonderful network of walks along the river and the side of the mountains. For us this was the highlight, although we also enjoyed visiting the shops on the central common. Our only disappointment was that the drought meant that the waterfalls were dry! Based on our culinary experience, at the to-rated restaurant, I suggest you stick to the traditional "country" favourites and resist the tempation to try the more "gourmet" dishes Clarens is a great place for combining activity with relaxation and it still suprises me how close it is to Joburg (less than 3,5 hours) on decent roads and that having been in South Africa for almost 30 years, this was our first visit. Btw we did not even get to the Golden Gate National Park this time but will do that at our next visit.ThembaSouth Africa

- From £54.65 per night9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 163 reviewsIt was our second stay and hopefully not our last. What a wonderful place with everything you could possibly need. It is set on a very pretty farm and easy to reach Clarens or Bethlehem. Minda is amazing and does everything she can to make you feel at home. We were welcomed with delicious brownies waiting for us in our room and the fire all set up for us to light. They also have Braai meals you can pre-order to cook in your own private Braai complete with a beautifully made Salad and farm bread. Definitely a stop you need to make. Thank you.
Laverne BellSouth Africa - From £85.35 per night9.2Scored 9.2SuperbRated superb· 345 reviewsFrom the hospitality from Karel, Bianca and staff, to the 5 star self catering apartment with all the little extra touches, this is my go to place from now on when visiting Clarens. Location was perfect. Within walking distance to the center which was ideal as you are not disturbed by the noise from the restaurants etc in the evenings. The views of the mountain from each room are spectacular which is a bonus. The breakfast made by Bianca was 5 star.
StefSouth Africa - From £75.67 per night9.8Scored 9.8ExceptionalRated exceptional· 249 reviewsThis place is so amazing. From the location (right outside Clarens but far enough to have wide open spaces) to the little touches that make your stay so special. I wish I could have stayed longer. Johan was there to meet us and was so friendly. Unfortunately, we didn't get to walk down to the river, will definitely do that if (when) we come stay again. Chocolates and welcome drinks, comfy beds, so lovely and quiet, and the garden is so beautiful.
