Karoo Country Inn

Very pleasant hotel with friendly staffWe were given a Pensioner discount & the use of a very nice suite (sitting room with microwave & fridge plus a double bedroom with access & seating on a large balcony)Good food

Fairly rundown and dated.Staff where friendly and helpful and we had no particular issues or complaints. The rooms are just very old and in need of a renovation.

The place is clean and the staff are friendly but the food is mediocre-to-bad and the facilities like showers and toilets don't always work.

Only spent time at the bar, service could have been better, as the place was not too busy.

We had an absolute wonderful stay at Karoo Country Inn hotel. I was hesitant to book here due to the past reviews, but trust me when I say some are overdramatic.We stayed in the Suite and it was spotless when we arrived and smelled so nice! The room is very large and it has a lovely living room and large bathroom and access to a very private spot on the balcony.Positives:• Clean, large, dustless room (we checked the headboards, no dust whatsoever)• Staff made sure we came home to a clean room, fresh towels and restocked coffee cabinet everyday.• Bed was very comfortable and linens were spotless, crisp white and high quality.• Staff is very friendly and made us feel very welcome.• Safe parking inside.Negatives:• The restaurant is overly expensive for a small town such as Middelburg.• The shower was unusable due its poor water pressure so could only take baths.• We didn't have hot water for one night but the rest of the nights were completely fine.• No telephone in the room so no room service available.• Some maintenance required. Few of the lamps didn't have bulbs and the mirror had water stains on it, no hot/cold indicators on the taps. Small things like that.• No generators, but there was a loadshedding light in the room which helped alot.The hotel is meant to be old school and it only has old furniture in it, but it's beautiful and nostalgic that way. It's not fair to expect something that is 172 years old to be modern. Overall we had a lovely experience and will book again in the future!

No water, no kettle, no cutlery. Beggars hassle you as soon as you walk out the door. Some drunk locals were shouting ever Afrikaans swear word possible at 12:30 in the morning. Staff excellent, beer was excellent. Would I stay there again. Not a chance.

This is an old hotel that would have shined in its heyday. Unfortunately it has not been updated. The staff are, however, friendly and helpful.

I was caught in a rain squall while I was stopping by for breakfast. I was invited to park my bike under cover while I waited for the rain to pass. Thank you to all the staff who helped me.

Stoped for dinner, I had a burger and it was good. My daughter had the snitzel and it was dry and tasteless. The manager later removed it from the bill.The toilets were dirty and lacked toilet paper.

Not to bad... Needs a bit of TLC due the history n character of the building.... No halaal meals....eish had to use a bath.. No shower.... But survived...
