    After a long day on the road, it was great to have a comfortable room. You can also order supper and breakfast, which is highly recommended.

    Brilliant accommodation. Excellent service and lovely food. A perfect stay over, although one could easily spend a few days there and just rest. Our dog was welcomed and treated like royalty. I was, however, perturbed by the anti-vaxx sentiment of the receptionist. I would not have booked there, had I known that the establishment does not endorse Covid vaccination.

    Even in low season they started the generator during loadshedding, so no significant interruptions. Loved the welcoming feel and safe parking.

    17 on Bird is a true old town Karoo gem. This guest house was one of the first residences in Beaufort West built in 1841. We received efficient correspondence proceeding our visit and a warm welcome upon our arrival. The staff members were friendly and professional and the receptionist went above and beyond to ensure that we had a comfortable stay. The rooms are beautifully decorated, clean, equipped with all necessities and well maintained. There is also a generator to combat the loadshedding schedules. The breakfast, dinners and desserts were delicious. I would recommend the lamb shank and malva and brandy puddings. There is a pool for the warmer seasons and afternoons. The guest house also happens to be pet friendly for a small fee of R75. The only downside to my stay was the excessive noise coming from the new manager's permanent second floor residence and I would thus not recommend staying in room 4! However, the receptionist was kind enough to move me to an open room, after addressing the complaint and no decrease in noise levels.

    Great place to overnight in Beaufort West, we where greeted at the gate by the friendly staff members and check in was quick and easy. Kids loved the swimming pool and the antelope and ducks at the back. Rooms have aircons and was a welcome bonus. Definitely recommend this place.

    A real farmhouse feel. Everything was spot on, and the bed was very comfortable. The house we stayed in is well equipped for self-catering even though we did not utilize the facility for the purpose there is verythong you will get in your own home.

    Great guest house to stop at when traveling through Beaufordt Wes. Staff are very friendly, rooms are nice. There is also a swimming pool. The area of the guest house also gives you a different view on Beaufordt Wes.

    A great place to break your journey. The staff were amazing. The rooms for the price were absolutely beautiful. They were sorted for loadshedding. The pool area was restful and the children enjoyed it.

  • 3/5 Di V. 1 year ago on Google
    Fine for a 3 star accommodation. Good points include nice, clean rooms, fresh-smelling towels and a lovely natural area around the back, complete with a pond and animals. Food recommendation: the braai is their most popular option when staying here, it looked lovely. We had lamb shank, which was great. The mash was also nice, but avoid the vegetables altogether, unless you don't mind eating a huge amount of crushed garlic. Management can do more to be attentive to guests as opposed to socialising in reception with other staff. Service staff are lovely, though, and they try to make the atmosphere comfortable, although they also follow the poor example of management by joining in at the social area. Things to watch out for when booking: * parking becomes an issue when the guest house is busy; there are other venues around that can accommodate more cars far more comfortably during peak times * if arriving later, expect the doors in the dining area to literally be closed around you at 8:00pm, in spite of the booking confirmation notice from the venue specifying the dining area closing time to be 9:00pm * the last and most notable point: when I confirmed my booking, I received a notice that a deposit may be deducted from my card before arriving. Noted and uncontested. This ended up being the full amount, two days before, without any notice or my consent. That is unacceptable and will see me warning others when discussing places to stay in the area, and also never return. **** I didn't take photos as I wasn't initially going to write a review. That said, feel free to put my review to the test. It really isn't a bad stay, but hopefully your experience is more pleasant overall.***

    Nice and spacious rooms for family of 4 for an overnight stay. Like the mini kitchen. Food is delicious, service good and friendly. One of the best "3 star" stays available (secrerly read 4 stars+ 👏)

😐 This was a quaint hotel in a quaint town. This place actually gave me motel vibes but it’s a lot bigger than a motel. First things first: we decided to spend the night here after a 10 hour drive. The only reason we picked this place over the others is because it had a pool. However, when we got ther...
