Perfekte veilige basis om Pretoria te verken.

Ons het verblyf gesoek om 'n familielid in die hospitaal te besoek. Die 13 minute na die hospitaal toe was perfek. Die eenheid is veilig, netjies en ruim. Vriendelike diens en gasvryheid. Sal The Red Chimney Guesthouse beslis aanbeveel.

Perfect safe base to explore Pretoria.

We were looking for accommodation to visit a family member in hospital. The 13 minutes to the hospital were perfect. The unit is safe, tidy and spacious. Friendly service and hospitality. Would definitely recommend The Red Chimney Guesthouse.

Baie gerieflik. Die gastekamers is nie net mooi nie, maar ook prakties. Elke ding dien 'n doel en geen onnodige nonsens wat net die plek vol staan nie.

Selfs wanneer Jeandre nie daar is nie, is hy beskikbaar en sy staff is professioneel en betroubaar. Sal nie weer in 'n ander gastehuis as Red Chimney in Pretoria oorbly nie.

Very convenient. The guest rooms are not only beautiful, but also practical. Every thing serves a purpose and no unnecessary nonsense that just fills the place.

Even when Jeandre is not there, he is available and his staff is professional and reliable. Will not stay in another guesthouse other than Red Chimney in Pretoria again.

Oulike plek!

Na ons bespreking het Jeandre met my kontak gemaak om te bevestig hoe laat hy ons kan verwag. Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang. Jeandre het vir ons die geriewe gewys en nodige reëlings deurgegee. Die kamer het darem batteryliggies gehad vir wanneer daar beurtkrag was (op daardie stadium het Pretoria vlak 6 beurtkrag gehad). Daar is ook veilige parkering vir voertuie wat vir ons belangrik was. Ongeag van die beurtkrag was daar heeltyd heerlike warm water om in te stort. Ons het wel 'n klein probleem gehad, maar Jeandre het dit in 'n japtrap vir ons kom uitsorteer. Jeandre was ook so gaaf om aan te bied dat ek eers na my wedloop gou kom stort voor ons uitboek! Beslis waarde vir geld en in die kol vir wat ons benodig het vir die betrokke naweek.

Cute place!

After our booking, Jeandre contacted me to confirm what time he could expect us. We were received very kindly. Jeandre showed us the facilities and passed on the necessary arrangements. At least the room had battery lights for when there was load shedding (at that stage Pretoria had level 6 load shedding). There is also secure parking for vehicles which was important to us. Regardless of the load shedding, there was always delicious hot water to shower in. We did have a small problem, but Jeandre came and sorted it out for us in no time. Jeandre was also kind enough to offer me a quick shower after my race before we checked out! Definitely value for money and spot on for what we needed for the weekend in question.

Ek sal weer hier kom bly. Ek het dit gebruik as 'n oornagstop om familie te besoek. Het ongelukkig die tyd wat ek hier was elke keer met load shedding daar aangekom, maar daar was lig beskikbaar.

Netjiese plek, geen direkte kliëntediens.

Kon net n' paar uur daar wees as gevolg van siekte, niemand was daar om te groet. Moes bel om hek oop te kry, toe bel om kluis kode te kry, toe bel om DStv aan te kry. Toe ons koffie wil drink was die poeierkoffie kliphard en al die bekers het soos eiers geruik, een koppie was nog vuil ook. Res van die plek was netjies, maar sal glad nie weer soontoe gaan nie.

Neat place, no direct customer service.

Could only be there for a few hours due to illness, no one was there to say goodbye. Had to call to get gate open, then call to get safe code, then call to get DStv on. When we wanted to drink coffee, the powdered coffee was rock hard and all the cups smelled like eggs, one cup was still dirty too. Rest of the place was neat, but will not go there again at all.

Jammer om te hoor van die siekte en hoop alles is nou beter.
As gevolg van ń sameloop van omstandighede kon ek nie daar wees om julle ontvang nie. Daarom moes die hek oopgebel word en so ook die kluiskode en DSTV telefoonsie gedoen word.
Die vuil koppie en ou koffie was ons swak kwaliteit beheer en daaroor is jammer.
Ek stel nuwe proses inwerking dat nie weer gebreur nie.
Jammer oor die slegte onderving by ons.
Lekker dag,

Vriendelike ontvangs, skoon en netjiese kamer. Heerlike groot stort. Maklike uitteken. Veilige area.

Een probleem, daar was nie ’n naam buite die gebou nie so ons was nie seker of ons by die regte plek aangekom het nie. Die ontvangs was vriendelike en mal oor die feit dat ons die sleutel in ’n kluis buite die deur kon los toe ons vertrek. Die kamer was skoon en daar was alles wat nodig maak om ’n koppie tee te maak, asook ’n yskas. Restaurante was omtrent 5 minute se ry weg. Was mal daaroor.

Friendly reception, clean and tidy room. Lovely big shower. Easy sign out. Safe area.

One problem, there was no name outside the building so we weren't sure if we had arrived at the right place. The reception was friendly and loved the fact that we could leave the key in a safe outside the door when we left. The room was clean and there was everything needed to make a cup of tea, as well as a fridge. Restaurants were about a 5 minute drive away. Loved it.
