Rosenhof Country House Reviews
What a place! We were not expecting such a gorgeous hotel on our drive through Oudtshoorn, but were really pleasantly surprised… We sadly only stayed one night, but had one of the best meals of our trip (set dinner menu, the chef is truly great), and can honestly say that the gardens, rooms and service are all immaculate… we didn’t want to leave! We have no hesitation in recommending this property. Stayed April 2017 – chenry999
Great attention to detail with comfortable, attractively decorated rooms. Surrounded by lovely gardens in an easy to find location.Efficient, helpful, friendly staff. Excellent food. I would recommend as a destination to everyone. – L6553DYamandac
Very nice location at the outskirt of town, enroute to the Cangoo Caves. We stayed in Room 1, very roomy with all possible amenities. Only negative is a somewhat cramped and dated shower. The 5-course dinner offered options to choose from, and each dish was extremely well prepared. Good wine list at fair prices.. A superb breakfast awaited us in the morning. Very good gym. Extremely friendly service all the way. – Travel_Jan95
