Lovely luxury accommodation in the middle of old Graaff-Reinet.
Spent one night here out of the two we were in Graaff-Reinet. Deluxe room (Ferreira) was definitely value for money considering the location and the quality of the room and facilities. Just staying at the Drostdy is an experience in itself, with all the old history radiating from the place and the beautiful luxury facilities and lovely gardens. A few things unfortunately detracted from the overall experience - 1) The staff in the Camdeboo Restaurant were completely inadequate during dinner. It took us more than two and a half hours to have dinner - and not because we ate that long. It sometimes took up to twenty minutes before the waiter paid attention to us again. There were only three on duty that night and there were two large groups (one in the region of 15 to 20 people) in the restaurant in addition to at least six small tables of two people each. 2) It's embarrassing to be taken to your room by a member of staff, only to find that there are other people already in the room - apparently a fault with the booking system. We have no complaints about the room we were then moved to - in fact it was probably better than where we were initially placed - but one doesn't expect this kind of fault in accommodation of this quality and price.

Beautiful rooms, 3 swimming pools and a restaurant with delicious food. We will definitely go again. Next time I would like to spend more than one night at the Drostdy to be able to see Graaff-Reinet better.

Alhoewel heelwat duurder as gastehuise, is kamers en geriewe die moeite werd.

Expected better.
Maybe my expectation was too high, but Drostdy didn't make it. First of all, our dinner reservation got lost, I personally called a month before, and then there was only a table available outside in the cold wind. The room's night light for the bathroom did not work. The turndown service was water and cookies placed on the table before 6 o'clock. When we checked out in the morning, the bill was wrong (and so were the people who checked out before us). To save time I could just pay the right amount, after which the invoice would be fixed and emailed to me. One week later, and I'm still waiting. Oh no, next time we'll spend the night in a Karoo house for much cheaper.

Absolutely not value for your R2650!
If you pay so much money, just for 1 night, then one also expects 5 stars. No, the room was small, the paint in the bathroom next to the shower was peeling, dust on all the frames of the botanical drawings, toilet seat loose on one side, lightly blown above the desk, told the facility manager in a list, but she just laughed. I also left the list at the reception, but there too they just looked, seeing if I didn't want to be busy. No, that hotel makes (as always) a good strict manager. A big disappointment.

Very special and a fantastic experience.
We are thankful for the quality accommodation we could see and book through LekkeSlaap and for their quality of service. Our stay at Drostdy Hotel was wonderful as were the meals. The rooms are spacious and beautiful with everything you expect of a five star place. The only thing we missed was M-Net's kykNet-channel for a bit of Afrikaans on TV.

A hotel rich in history and character and beautifully renovated. Very centrally located. Lovely bathroom with underfloor heating and heated towel rails. Toiletries not properly replenished and no sign of biscuits with coffee. Nevertheless excellent value for money.

Excellent venue!
We really enjoyed our stay! Excellent hotel with friendly, helpful staff and fantastic food! The gardens are beautiful. I also told the manager that my only issue was the room was very stuffy. We don't like constant air conditioning, so if you turn it off the room is unlivable. We slept with our windows and door open and were a bit worried if it was safe. Next time I will choose a room with private porch.

Unacceptable and disappointing.
Our air conditioner dripped on the bed at the head all night. It was so bad that the towels were soaked. Breakfast was disappointing - no staff to serve the tables. No choice of eggs and no milk. Had to ask for milk at the kitchen door myself.

Very beautiful and very pleasant.
We had a wonderful stay and dinner in the restaurant was delicious. The service was also very good and the staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was an ordeal, with no structure and apparently too few staff. We had to wait a very long time for a very simple order and when it came it was wrong. Overall, though, it was very enjoyable.
