Namaqua Lodge 's response
Good morning Lutz,
Firstly, I want to thank you for your review. We always appreciate all reviews, good or bad. Without reviews, we will not know how to better our service to our clients.
Thank you for bringing the situation of the drainpipe to our attention. This was an unforeseen situation that we had no control over as it was caused by a blocked drain, but please be assured that this situation has been attended to and has been resolved.
We are very sorry that you felt the air conditioning to be insufficient. Our temperatures in this region do get extremely hot and thus we have found that if the air conditioning is installed lower, rather than higher the guests do appreciate it more as it is more efficient. We apologise for the fact that the air conditioning blew directly onto your bed. We noticed after your complaint that someone actually broke off the flap on the air conditioning. We did not have prior knowledge of this and it is something that we cannot do anything about. The company that manufactured that specific air conditioning does not exist anymore and the parts are no longer available. The only option we have now is to replace the entire air conditioning and this is not a cost-effective solution at this stage. We are saddened by the fact that you had some unpleasant experiences, but truly do hope that the rest of your stay was a good experience.
We do hope that you will consider visiting our institution again in the future.
Kind regards,
Namaqua Lodge Management

As already mentioned.
Our booking and reception was very good. The rooms were neat and clean, but we were a group of 14 (10 adults and 4 children between 9 and 13 years old). Everyone who lives in room no. 1 slept, probably only slept half the night if that much. The pipes in the walls roar all night long! WiFi was also not good.

Ideally located in flower season.
Very centrally located for flower viewing tourists. Reception was friendly and everything was well explained. Room was neat, spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Fresh drinking water fountain in dining hall and generator that goes on during load shedding time was a bonus. WiFi works well and handy for working travelers. Meals were delicious and restaurant on site convenient. Only problem is hot water when logs are fully booked with tour groups and everyone wants to bath/shower and leave at the same time in the morning. It's easier to get hot water in the evening by just taking a bath/shower a little earlier or later.

The evenings were noisy until late, not acceptable.
We were flowers and Calvinia Fleis festival goers and looked flowers all day and visited the area. First night there is a group that laughs and chats very loudly until 11.15pm in the dining room close to the room where we stayed. Other guests also complain about the noise, I learn from reception. Night 2 the Springboks play against the All Blacks and the TV in the ladies bar is turned on at full volume until 10.45pm and we try to get a good night's rest in between all that. My opinion is that the rooms near the public areas should be protected with sliding doors in the evening to dampen the sound. The management was on duty the times as confirmed to me by the receptionist after I complained about the noise. Management allows the noise and does not consider the paying guests. I would stay there again, but for sure not near the public areas, bars and dining hall.

We would not recommend this accommodation to anyone.
Our experience has been that you are treated like royalty if you are part of their flower tour, otherwise you are only treated as a number. We were treated curtly and stiffly by most of the staff. The room and bathroom are old and unfinished. It was neat, but the tub was full of hair. Even after they came to clean it a second time it was still full of hair. The security is good at the front of the building, but at the back the gate is open and anyone can enter, so your car is not safe 24/7. The accommodation does not justify the costs per night at all. We were lucky to find accommodation elsewhere for the night, so we checked out again within a few hours. A member of staff then wanted to know how she could rectify the situation, but after what we had already experienced, we declined.

Very unfriendly and rooms need a makeover.
I probably stood waiting at reception for over 10 minutes for someone to check us in while they sat at the bar. After that we are moved to another room not the one we booked on nice sleep co. sat. it was then a completely different room, I let it go, we were tired and just wanted to rest for the night. The room was very old and some of the guests made a lot of noise at the back late at night and in the morning hours. And while we are busy creating comfort my wife discovers the biggest cockroach in our room it disappeared under the bed we had to look for it luckily there is a can of doom in the room we were able to spray it and find the cockroach I have the photo . We wanted to check out right away, but we were so tired and decided to just spend the night waiting for it to be day and travel on. I will come with my bakkie and bushlapa next time, maybe we will be treated better.

The fact that there is a key for every cabinet in the kitchen is strangely annoying, especially if you just want to take out a plate or a glass. The kitchen is unnecessarily spacious (without comfortable seating for a meal), but in the bathroom the shower door hits the sink when you open it wide enough to worm your way into the shower and neither of us are bulky not. The space between the single beds and the dressing table is extremely neat and we were thankful that we only slept there for two nights. The feeling is that the lodge wants to accommodate as many guests as possible without really caring too much about their comfort. The rooms were clean but a mat on the tiled floor would have helped for the chilly evenings.

Ons besoek aan die pragtige Namakwaland is effens bederf deur teleurstellende verblyf.

Our visit to the beautiful Namaqualand was slightly spoiled by disappointing accommodation.
We were really looking forward to our second visit to Vanrhynsdorp and especially following the good advertisement of Namaqua Lodge. The reception was very professional and the quality of the dinner (barbecue buffet) was also outstanding. However, the room was disappointing and the fact that we could not have hot water at any point, very upsetting.

We had a nice stay (as in the past). Delicious meal in the restaurant. All the staff are very friendly and helpful.
If you book a family room and already have teenagers or older children, Room 22 is not the most suitable room. The space is very limited and the bathroom extremely small.

Namaqua Lodge 's response
Goeiedag Piet en Erica,
Ons is baie bly en dankbaar dat julle ons lodge gekies het vir 'n welverdiende wegbreek om die pragtige blomme te kom aanskou. Soos julle weet is dit ons besigste tyd van die jaar en hardloop ons maar 'n bietjie rond om by alles uit te kom. Ons waardeer wel die hoeveelheid ekstra kuiergaste ongelooflik baie. Daarby gese het ons, ons eie toermaatskappy waar ons mense die blomme wys elke dag. Dan het ons ook ons buffet etes waarop ons baie trots is en ons naam ons vooruit loop. Met die twee saam het ons regtig 'n wenresep waar ons soveel mense blomme kan wys en heerlike kos kan gee teen 'n billike prys. Ongelukkig met die aard van buffetetes word die kos op 'n sekere tyd bedien om die meeste mense op een slag kwalitiet kos te voer. Dan kan die kos net vir 'n sekere tyd voorgesit word voordat dit ongelukkig te droog/koud word om regtig jou waarde vir jou geld te kry. Dis 'n fyn balans om almal te probeer gelukkig hou, 'n redelike tyd te bedien, en goeie kwaliteit kos te bedien. Dus moet ons ons tye bietjie beperk en aanpas om die meeste gaste gelukkig te hou. Ons is jammer die tye het julle nie gepas nie. Ontbyt is sekere oggende baie vroeg om toergaste tegemoet te kom. Ons verstaan vakansie is 'n tyd om laat te slaap en ontspanne te voel. Ons hoop julle verstaan ons punt en dat julle weer sal terugkom vir 'n kuier volgende jaar.

Bad sleep and cold shower.
Bed was soft with a cavity in the middle and my wife and I could hardly sleep. Terribly noisy when people open and close doors. Staff also shout at each other over and over again. Worst was the cold shower the next morning. Buffet dinner was delicious but a bit expensive. We then just missed breakfast because it was over our budget after dinner.

Goeie dag Wouter,
Ons is jammer die ervaring was nie op standaard nie. Ons het die probleem met die geyser uitgesorteer. (Element)
Ongelukkig kan ons nie veel doen aan die deure wat raas as dit oop of toe gemaak word nie. Ons het wel die personeel aangespreek oor die geraas in die gange. Baie dankie vir die terugvoering. Die bed was Januarie 2021 nuut gekoop en het ons nog net goeie terugvoering gekry daaroor. Meeste van die hotel se beddens is minder as 2 jaar oud. Die buffet ete se prys voel ons is billik vir voorgereg, slaaie, hoofgereg (insluitend 2 vleise) en vele nageregte om van te kies asook koffie en tee. Ons hoop julle sal weer 'n draai kom maak wanneer ons a la carte restaurant weer oop is. Ons het baie billike pryse en 'n goeie wyn versameling. Geniet julle tydjie in Namakwaland!

Nice food, but facilities need a makeover.
The fact that the rooms and bathrooms are not on the same level creates a problem. The bathrooms are also not built up to the roof.

Basically just overslept.
Bathroom, shower specifically, is just creepy. Sink faucets are loose in the sink. Shower does not drain completely. Broken tiles. A little attention to this can mean great improvement.

Amanda contacted us beforehand to ensure that a room without a shower would be alright. On arrival we asked that we and our friends be close together, so they moved us. We stayed at 8 different places on our tour and can compare. Namaqua's staff were very friendly and professional and accommodating. The food was delicious.

Hospitality, care and passion. This is how we can best describe you.
After a long day on the road, day 4 of our "road trip", we found ourselves in Vanrhynsdorp for a first visit. Reservations were made on the way and here we could already experience the sincerity and hospitable attitude of the Lodge's staff. Our accommodation unit (self-catering) was neat, spacious and clean and met the needs of our visit here. It was Valentine's Day and the "special" meal was definitely a hit. Some will refer to it as the way it should be, but we know, sincerity, caring and hear
