Although the manager was very accommodating, the room was stuffy and congested and had a damp smell, he then moved us to a bigger Pom but still there was no circulation and it was doing icky to sleep

Worth the price!

Excellent service from Shaun the manager.Place has lots of potential. Suitable to just sleep and shower. Outside breakfast area needs some maintenance and sprucing up. Beds need new mattresses. Breakfast is a plus and price is affordable.Breakfast staff need some jacking up.

One night Stay

The place definitely does not look like it does in the photographs. My room smelt a bit musty and the basin needs replacing. the toilet, although clean can do with a revamp. The mat in the bedroom and toilet can be replaced with something better than the ugly striped mat it had. I feel that they need to have a screen available for the shower as it is in the bedroom and open. Not everyone wants an open shower, which I certainly would not have liked if there were two of us, whether male or female. The manager and staff were very friendly and helpful. The entrance is a bit confusing. There is a sign that says "Ring the Bell" but I could not find any bell. Luckily the manager was around and he noticed my car at the side gate. Breakfast was nice and the breakfast room clean with decent crockery/cutlery. Secured parking an added bonus. All in all, it was good value for money. My huge bed was a bonus - very comfortable although no view.

Romantic Getaway

Our room was very small and not great. There were however some really nice rooms which weren't occupied. I found it strange that they put us in that room seeing that there were lovely rooms unoccupied for the whole time we were there. Staff were awesome, the manager was very helpful and the place extremely clean.

Great stopover

Caledon was a stopover on my travel around the south of South Africa. However I really enjoyed my night here. The manager was friendly and helpful,the hotel charming and the room very comfortable. The meal at the local pub was good also. The only problem was figuring out how to ring the bell which is inside the gate.
