卡爾維尼亞飯店(Calvinia Hotel)

Calvinia hotel was like an oasis in the desert. Comfortable, cool and comforting. We had to book for our return trip as well.

Very small dark twin room provided at back of hotel so no outlook except parking area. They did provide a generator for load shedding as well as Wifi. Dinner & breakfast served nicely in the large restaurant. Lacked any atmosphere with its new decor.

We initially were booked into a newly varnished large room which we found very dark and were moved to a family unit on the outside back part of the hotel which we really enjoyed. The comfortable bed was spacious with crisp clean linen. The family room also included a second single bedroom and the bathroom offered both shower and bath options. A very friendly cat belonging to the managers daughter spent some time with us which we really enjoyed. The staff were welcoming and courteous, dinner on the patio was enjoyable as was available self service cold breakfast options. We also enjoyed the cooked breakfast.

It was good to see the revamp of Calvinia Hotel is in working process. The Restuarant looks very nice. Buffet Breakfast!!!! Friendly service everytime i go there. Give Jennifer the receptionist a big five, She always welcomes me with a smile with my every visit. Looking forward for the next visit. Keep up the good work!!!

The overall impression of the hotel is old and that it needs attention. The wals need paint, the screws of the door handle needs to be tighten, the water pressure of the shower was bad, there was a smell of sewage in the backyard. The new tiles in the bathroom were poorly fitted. The bath showed wear and tear.

Great overnight stay during my business trip

Country hotels should close down, I have been to three of them which are Springbok, Calvinia and Upington. The first time I was at Springbok I was with the institution I worked for previously and it was fine no complaints. I went to Upington with my current institution and it was fine no complaints. I went to Calvinia in February 2022 and the room I was booked into had no fridge while my colleagues had fridges and then I had to request it from reception which they brought, then it was the Wi-Fi oh my God I was tired of walking up and down to request everything that is supposed in my room then in the morning the lady- I am not sure if she is the owner or what had an attitude at breakfast the quantity of milk she had poured in a jug was to little to serve cereals for all three of my colleagues and then the omlette they made was very bad. NO more Calvinia country hotel.

Friendly staff and good service!!

Love this place good food clean
