Riverside Lodge

Such a cute little property and wonderful hosts. Thank you!

A wonderful family run establishment. Clean, cosy, everything catered for, pity we only stayed one night. Exceptional breakfast and a well stocked bar.

The guesthouse is very close to the town center but still in a quiet area. Our room was big and all is very clean. Elza and Albert are great hosts and know where to go and what to do. Make sure to have enough time for breakfast it is delicious

Everything about Riverside Lodge was excellent. Elsa and Albert gave us good information about the area and we thoroughly enjoyed our three days. Thank you!

Great guest house. Hosts were amazing and gave great recommendations of things to do in the area and restaurants. Lots of information provided before we arrived which was also super helpful. Rooms were really comfy and uniquely decorated. Loved the honesty bar and terrace to sit out before dinner. Breakfast was also delicious

Charming property with a beautiful deck to relax on. Hosts were helpful and friendly.

An absolute pleasure to be pampered guests at the Riverside Lodge and we will definitely return to this awesome place!

Beautiful historic property. Loved the honesty bar and the pool area. Breakfast is amazing.

Riverside lodge in Oudtshoorn is an amazing guest house. Every last detail in the room and lodge is thoughtfully planned to the enjoyment of guests. Big and spacious rooms, Beautifully decorated, spotlessly cleaned. Breakfast was a delight. Plenty and tasty. Its definitely the best guesthouse we've ever been in. Thank you Elza and Albert for being perfect hosts.

Excellent location by the river and short walk to restaurants. The owners were very friendly and helpful and had thought of everything- even a very well stocked honesty bar. Lovely terrace to have breakfast and small plunge pool with recliners etc to relax by. Room was also lovely and had everything needed

Wunderschönes Guesthouse, unheimlich nette Gastgeber, super Frühstück! Wir würden jederzeit gerne wiederkommen 👍

We stayed in a self- catering lodge which was equipped with all that you would need to cook for yourself. We ate out at Anny’s Bistro, which was recommended by our host, Albert. The lodge was large and came with an open fireplace as well as a lovely deck with comfortable seating. A real find and great value.

great location ,efficient operation and owner very friendly and helpful with advice ,al in all excellent ,would have liked to stay longer

Kleines charmantes altes Haus mit herrlicher Terrasse und kleinem Pool. Liebevoll bewirtschaftet, herzliche Gastgeber welche sich sehr um Ihre Gäste bemühen. Grandioses Frühstück und eine sehr gut ausgestattete Bar (Selbstbedienung zu sehr fairen Preisen) Wir sind der Meinung, das Zimmer und Service es mit internationalen Grandhotels aufnehmen kann. Jedoch hier mit der Liebe eines Privathoteliers. Wir kommen wieder...

Sehr schöne Unterkunft, nette Gastgeber, gutes Frühstück

A heritage property that has been lovingly decorated to a very high standard with excellent attention to detail. There is a beautiful deck attatched to the property which provides shady outdoor seating and lounging space along with a small pool for cooling off. Breakfast was great and we particularly enjoyed all the little extras provided during our stay such as a fully stocked honesty bar, sherry in the room, fresh water and chocholates at bed time and a free car washing service!! If you are looking for a luxury guest house experience in Oudtstroon then this is your place!

Gutes Frühstück, sehr nettes Personal, Massagemöglichkeit am Zimmer, Restaurant „Nostalgie“ zu empfehlen (zu Fuß 5 Minuten entfernt), sichere Gegend

Very homely, welcoming lodge. Albert and Eliza were wonderful hosts. Thet were very helpful and charming. It was a pleasure to stay with them. There was great attention to detail and everything was done to ensure we had a wonderful time there. We only wished it could have been longer

Good and quite place ,Thank you Albert and Elza.

Lodge pour 4 personnes très confortable et beaucoup de commodités : foyer, balcon, vue sur la rivière, robes de chambre...

Geweldig vriendelijke gastheer en gastvrouw. Super verzorgt

Excelente alojamiento. A destacará la amabilidad de los propietarios y el estado del local: limpio, súper cómodo y con todo lujo de detalles. El desayuno es excepcional.

Wir haben zwei Nächte in einem der großen Ferienhäuser zu Dritt verbracht und waren total begeistert. Die Ferienhäuser sind wirklich so schön wie auf den Bildern (supertoll ist auch die große eigene Terrasse an den Ferienhäusern) und der Service , welchen Elza und Albert (die Besitzer) bieten ist schwer zu toppen. Sie sind immer vor Ort und stehen mit Rat und Tat zur Seite, jeden Tag gibt es einen Welcome-Evening mit Snacks und Weinen für die Neuankömmlinge. Das Frühstück ist toll und wirklich lecker. Das B&B liegt sehr zentral in Oudtshoorn und es sind einige Restaurants gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Die größte Überraschung erlebten wir am ersten Morgen, da ALLE Autos früh morgens als kostenloser Service jeden Tag gewaschen werden - mehr Service geht nicht. Wir können die Riverside Lodge wirklich nur wärmstens empfehlen und haben uns rundherum wohlgefühlt.

We had a great stay at this hotel. The Owners were excellent and we would definitely recommend the hotel

We really loved our stay at this lodge from the minute we arrived to leaving. Hosts absolutely went the extra mile by having our car washed, providing us iced water and chocolates for the night. Also had free welcome drinks and snacks. Beautiful outdoor views, pool and seating area. Cottage was very well stocked with lots of attention to detail. Very comfortable beds and pillows. Good free internet.

accomodating owners in an incredibly comfortable and unique lodge. truly exceeded our expectations!

Perfect stay. The room is perfect and the service and hospitality excellent. Only thing is the air conditioning above the bed. Cold air in your face. Maybe change the bed in another direction?

Sehr nette Familie, durften zu Beginn unseres Aufenthalts ein Willkommens-Abend mit Wein und Snacks genießen.

Consummate hosts. The property and service were excellent

Absolutely beautiful place to go. The lodge and the rooms are exceptional. The hosts, Elsa and Albert have a drinks reception at 6pm in the evening so you can meet the other guests. Got a great recommendation for a restaurant for dinner. Just disappointed I only booked for 1 night.

This was a wonderful overnight stay en route to Shamwari. The hosts were lovely and the plunge pool and bar most welcome. Our room was very quaint and comfortable with lots of additional touches and if we are ever in the vicinity again we would definitely stay here again.

We loved the cottage and the hospitality. The owners are so warm and make you feel at home. the vegetarian breakfast was fantastic. And we really enjoyed our own personal fireplace in the room.

Der Empfang war sehr Herzlich. Die Besitzer sind super freundlich. Um 17 uhr gabs Wein zu probieren. Tipps fürs Restaurant und Ausflüge gab es auch.

Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und umfangreich orientiert, betreffend Abendessen. Beim Frühstück gab es eine Menu Karte mit vielen Leckereien.

Stayed in one of the 2 cottages. The location of the lodge is set on near a river where much birdlife is in earshot and in sight. Albert and Elza were great hosts with a thorough orientation of the lodge and surrounding areas. The cottages have a rustic decor but are immaculately kepy and are very spacious and well-equipped. The cottage can very comfortably sleep 4 to 5 people - there is a double bed in the master bedroom, a bunk bed with 2 single beds and a single chaise that could be used for small children. There is a prepared fireplace with firewood and tinder supplied. We made little use of the kitchen but includes a 2 plate stove, fridge and plenty of crockery and cutlery. The hosts held an evening reception with wine and snacks. As part of the stay, they ensured that their custodial staff cleaned our rental vehicle. Overall a very good stay with great service in a beautiful setting. Would have really liked to spend more time in the lodge and area.

Eliza and Albert are brilliant can’t do enough for you advised us of places to visit and where to eat , had a fabulous meal at Nostalgia a restaurant less than 200 meters away excellent food and good value .

We spent only one night bue had a great time. Excellente breakfast and perfec attention from the owners.

I really recommend this lodge. We felt very welcomed by the lovely couple of owners,

Wonderful hosts, great day trip, great room. Loved our stay.

It was amazing.

Fantastic breakfast. Quiet location, great sleep. Helpful hosts.

Accueil professionnel et amical - chambre et lodge superbes avec très beau mobilier - excellent petit-déjeuner - hôtes très aimables qui nous ont offert un verre de bienvenue - conseil pour restaurants de proximité - c'était PARFAIT

Small family run bed and breakfast. Small rooms without a refrigerator. There is coffee and tea in the room and they give water and chocolates at night. Nice owners. They have two bicycles that we enjoyed. In the center of Oudtshoorn. A very small pool just to get wet not for swimming. A nice drive to the Congo Caves which are worth visiting and a main reason of traveling there along with all the Ostrich farms.

Great stay, lovely location, wonderful and accommodating hosts. Highly recommend

Ótimo hotel!! Recepção incrível! Muito confortável e possui um ótimo café da manhã

Extremely friendly owners, homey feeling, and lots of effort put in to make the stay wonderful.

when we arrived we were upgraded to a tree house with a large balcony overlooking the garden and the river. On th evening we arrived there was a welcome drink party for the guests where we were able to get together and trade travel stories. The owners Christal and Sanet were both very helpful and hospitable to the extent that when I asked about opening times for a car wash ( it was Saturday afternoon and everything was closed) Sanet said he would wash the car for me despite my saying I would do it. What a great host.

Our stay here was really beautiful, the stag is very helpful and friendly, good breakfast. Just the pool was too dirty to take a bath.

Donos empregados extremamente educados e amáveis. Vale muito a pena ficar nesse lugar.

The hospitality was great from the moment we arrived until leaving. Not over the top, just natural. It's well located in the town for restaurants and nearby attractions yet secluded and secure. Relaxing was easy. It's an old 'colonial style' house and furnished appropriately and interestingly. It works.

Great B&B with friendly and helpful staff. Room was very comfortable. Excellent location as a base in Oudtshoorn. Breakfast was lovely. Would go back and stay if in Oudtshoorn again.
