134 guests' feedbackWe had a very nice stay. The place was clean and we had a peaceful stay. Will stay there again.
Absolutely awesome stay. Host was very accommodating when we were delayed in our arrival. Clean, spacious, well maintained.
It was very nice.
We had a great rest after a long day's travel. Was nice to spend the night at a clean and tidy place.
We had a wonderful stay and the beds are great, will stay there again.
Neat and clean guest house with the friendliest hostess.
Had a great stay. It's a comfortable place to stay, and very neat.
Lovely, the water bottle was a great addition given we arrived on a cold day. We loved our stay.
It was an incredibly nice experience, it's a particularly beautiful place and the people are fantastic. The rooms and the bedding were top class. The owners are incredibly friendly and always willing to help! I recommend this Guesthouse to anyone for sure!
Berry Hill was lovely and comfortable. Sune was very friendly and helpful. Definitely a great overnight stop.
Very neat, clean guest house and friendly staff.
I had a great stay, safe parking for my car. Very neat and clean with WiFi and a small outside braai area. Not far from N1 and easy to get to.
Had a lovely stopover on the way down to the Cape. Room was very nice with all that was required for a night's stay. I used the braai just outside the room; all the braai utensils were available in the room.
Excellent overnight guest house. Was easy to find and very friendly welcome. Everything we needed for the evening was there, including WiFi. Safe parking and accessible.
It was very nice.
Berry Hill Guesthouse is such a cute little place and super affordable. They offer everything needed for a comfortable stay. Suene is such a friendly and welcoming lady. She catered to all our needs and provided useful information on shops and restaurants in the area. All the necessities are in your room, it's neat, it's clean and so very cozy. When we arrived in the evening, it was quite chilly and the electric blanket was already switched on and heating up the bed for us. That was such a lovely touch. I will recommend this cute and cozy place to anyone looking to stop over in Colesberg.
Absolutely wonderful. It was so neat and clean.
Our stay was extremely comfortable and safe.
Delicious! It was really very convenient.
It was delicious. Only compliments and no complaints. Thank you very much.
Very relaxing. Nice stopover place.
Fantastic. Clean, comfortable. Hostess great. Upgraded our room for free. Will definitely stay here again.
Our stay was great, good safe parking next to our room. The electric blanket was a lovely touch.
Very nice, just a shame it was so short.
Excellent hosts. Quiet and peaceful environment. Comfortable and tidy accommodation.
We loved our stay at Berry Hill Guesthouse. Without knowing, our room was upgraded. The lady who assisted us was very friendly. We will recommend Berry Hill Guesthouse to friends and family, and we will be staying there again.
Very beautiful, neat and functional. Quiet because the place is not close to the highway, but still very well located.
Overslept one night. Warm beds. Lovely shower. Very basic with self catering. No plates, cutlery or barbecue supplies. Focus is on coffee making facilities with a small fridge. Not suitable for freezing meat.
Definitely! They went the extra mile for us.
Good value for money. Friendly welcome and well located.
Lovely. Comfy bed. The shower floor is a bit slippery, but there is good water pressure. The coffee was not very nice, but they have Netflix on the TV, so it was good.
The place smelled delicious when we walked in. Everything was very clean and tidy. Crisp bedding and the bed slept great. Coffee was put out. Had a lovely hot shower with fresh towels. TV with Netflix. We will definitely stay there again. Very good value for money.
We had a wonderful stay.
See stars.
Yes, we overslept.
Central, quiet place.
Very nice place. Clean and tidy.
We had a good time and slept great.
Had a wonderful stay. Clean and tidy accommodation.
Pleasant rest after long drive!
Very cosy. Well equipped for an overnight stay.
The unit is spotless and very nice. The service is excellent and the owner is very friendly and helpful.
Thank you very much. Your accommodation and service are great.
Value for money would stay there again anytime.
Very clean, very tidy, and very friendly.
Value for money. Will stay there again.
Great overnight stay. Perfect for a half way stop between Cape Town and Johannesburg.
It was very nice for us to stay at Berry Hill! Everything was so nice neat and clean. Would recommend it for sure. The only thing that needs attention is the door lock, it was very difficult to get it open from the inside.
I definitely had a nice stay and slept.
Clean tidy accommodation. Nice hot shower. Thanks for the free upgrade. Suggestion - for a microwave in the room. Room 1's curtain might just be lined, because street light shines in your face in bed. For a light sleeper, heavy vehicle traffic might be a problem with the road directly in front of the house. Had a great time with our neighbors.
Nice place for an overnight stay.
Slept very well. Fresh and clean. Thank you for upgrading at no extra cost.
It was comfortable, quiet and safe. Would have preferred to have a shelf or two to unpack essentials on. Too basic for a vacation, but perfect for a sleepover after a long day on the road and affordable.
Sufficient facilities for an overnight stay in Colesberg with most necessities in the area.
The owners were very helpful when a problem arose.
We absolutely enjoyed our stay as we stayed there before and we love the improvements that were done since our last stay.
Stayed well. Location a bit bad on the main street if you are someone who wants to sleep in silence.
Had a nice stay. Room is neat. Just a shame the WiFi was very bad regarding watching Netflix. (Heaved all the time.) Other than that, everything was very good and the reception was very friendly.
Cute little place, a bit small if you are used to a bigger bed.
As advertised, lovely little spot. Nice pub close by.
See stars.
Very nice and peaceful.
Great sleep and safe parking.
I can easily recommend Berry Hill. Good, neat, clean accommodation for an overnight stay on the long road between Gauteng and the Cape. The hostess was very pleasant and helpful. She also had no problem with my little Maltese who always rides and sleeps with me.
The rooms were very cold. Maybe the old building has small windows? Insulation is also an option.
The accommodation was very basic. The kettle's cord does not come with the outlet plug, have to put it on the floor to boil. Would have liked at least a microwave in the room.
The room was very neat and clean. Braai facilities outside. Bathroom is wonderfully spacious. The street in front of the guesthouse is very busy.
Friendly reception and the lady was very helpful. As older persons, we could not use the TV at all, because the directions were unknown to us.
The place was very clean and neat althiugh extremely tiny. . Bathroom didnt have a hand towel but everythin in the room smelt great.
Everything is good, just small things they need to look at, maybe hand soap in the toilet and toilet/bathroom door that won't close.
A pleasant and peaceful stay.
The room was very small for 4 people. A little trouble with WiFi. Power points are limited. If you just wanted to check in and sleep, the place would be ideal. But if you have a good 7 hours behind you and want to relax, this place is not for you.
The unit was ice cold. The knives and forks were dirty. There is no washing up sink. The coffee was terrible. Cremora was offered but I could not drink it as I'm intolerant to that, so I had to have black coffee. There were no 2-prong plugs to charge my cellphone. The TV and internet went off at 19h30 and never came back on again. I won't stay there again; the lady had a terrible attitude.
Really comfortable, felt like home away from home. Thank you for giving us the bigger room with a TV. We do appreciate it.
We stayed 1 night with permission for animals. Very good location and service.
Very pleasant people and very hospitable.
Only a one night stopover heading home from the Cape. Room was recently renovated, very tastefully. Easy access, no issues, would gladly stay again if in Colesberg.
Room was clean and tidy and enjoyed the overnight stay. My 2 dogs were also welcome.
Well located and safe. The road was quite busy, but it didn't bother us. The WiFi reception was weak, but that didn't bother us either. We slept well.
The location of Berry Hill Guesthouse is very easy to locate. Access to the rooms is private.
Suene confirmed our visit on the afternoon of our booking and was friendly and promptly available upon our arrival. The accommodation is neat and adequately equipped. I can recommend it anytime.
The room was a lot smaller than expected.
Would definitely recommend to friends/family. Guesthouse was clean and neat. Location is great, with it being only a few minutes drive from Gariep Dam, and Suene and Malcom were very understanding of us taking the scenic route to the guest house. Good value for money, especially for families looking to stop over on a long drive.
Can recommend to anyone. Was a pleasant experience.
I enjoyed my stay. Was upgraded to a bigger room, at no extra charge. Thank you!
Service was friendly and there is a place to eat within walking distance which makes it convenient. Most delicious food.
Berry Hill Guesthouse has everything needed for a safe overnight stay. The room was clean and tidy.
Will definitely use again.
See stars.
We slept very well. The place is very clean and tidy and spacious. It's about 300m from the nearest restaurant. The bathroom is also spacious. Parking is safe.
The only add-on I would suggest would be a microwave and a toaster. We had ample food but would've liked to be able to reheat it. Otherwise, our stay was pleasant.
Apart from Eskom, the accommodation was clean, tidy and the owner was very professional and friendly. Felt right at home, and slept very well. Would definitely recommend it.
Nice place to stay! Would definitely recommend!
Owner received us kindly.
We were very warmly received, and the accommodation is safe and extremely tidy. There was everything we needed.
All good! Room was clean and fresh, overall nice place to stay.
Many thanks to the guest house - it was a great place to sleep after a long day on the road! Neat, affordable and well located - would definitely recommend.
Had a wonderful stay. Quiet, clean and such hospitality.
Good place to spend the night in the journey between the north and the south!
Compact, but tidy and all the necessary things. However, the bathroom door could not close properly. Parts of the yard and house were under construction for new units, but otherwise there were nice gardens and it looked tidy. At first there was no WiFi, but this was quickly resolved.
Berry Hill Guesthouse is small but was perfect for our overnight stay while traveling from CPT to JHB. I would suggest having more hooks in the bathrooms for hanging towels, etc. and a shelf over the fridge for cups, etc.
Nothing more needed for a one night sleepover. Also offered a more expensive room at no extra cost.
We were welcomed very friendly and rooms well furnished, clean and comfortable. Will definitely stay there again.
Within easy walking distance to restaurants and other amenities.
Trucks in the street were troublesome at first. Load power phase 6 had an effect on water, pressure and temperature were perfect before our departure. Thanks for emergency lights.
It was the "attention to detail" that made the difference, hot water bag on teenager's bed, 2 lights instead of 1 for when loadshedding kicks in. I didn't see that the family room was only provided with 2 towels, even though I booked for 4 people. Suene quickly brought me 2 more towels.
Basic, yet convenient.
Was very nice, but may need a microwave.
I would suggest darker curtains in the red room I stayed in. The light from the street lights can be quite annoying. Also very nice stay.
I had a nice stay, thank you.
Very impressed. They even had hot water bottles, Netflix, and electric blankets. We were welcomed and comfortable. Would recommend.
Everything is there that is needed for one night's overnight stay.
Good value for money. Will stay there again.
Place is very neat. We were spoiled with a larger unit than we booked. Would definitely recommend it.
One of the coffee mugs was not clean - unfortunately there were bits of old milk powder in the bottom. Mats next to the bed will also be welcome.
Security gate would be nice.
Sufficient for overnight stay.
The place is sufficient for a one night on the way to Cape Town.
Apartment was neat and easy to find.
Comfortable, maybe just towel arrangements and 2 plates.
We made a few suggestions to the person we shared with and believe that if those few little things were sorted out it would make the place even better.
Didn't feel at home right away as the fridge and all the electrical plugs were unplugged (had to move the fridge to get to the plugs). It feels like we arrived there unexpectedly. We did only confirm the booking on the same day due to problems with eft, but don't want to sort out the logistics after hours on the road. This is the responsibility of the host.
Manager very friendly and helpful. We had a nice overnight stay and a bonus is that an electric blanket is provided for cold nights. Will use Berry Hill Guesthouse again.
Place is just basic, fridge was turned off and leaking water when we turned it on, located on main road so lots of traffic noise through the night. Room was covered with ants.
Bed was a bit uncomfortable and shower didn't work so well, the rest was okay.
Clean and tidy white bedding and towels, good mattress. Thank you. The following was extremely disappointing: Geyser was not turned on in time, we had to shower in cold water. (Mind you, there was no load shedding at all.) Do not use hooks on walls to hang used, damp towels. The bathroom light does not work. The fridge was not switched on - so no ice cubes, and we could not immediately cool our perishables. The power plugs are a fiasco; all the electrical appliances such as the boiler, bedside lamps and fridge cannot work at the same time. Constant plugging in and unplugging was a frustration to operate certain electrical appliances. Even though it was the cheaper room, it didn't even meet basic needs of an overnight facility. A guest house should cater precisely to the needs of weary travellers, which is where Berry Hill Room 2 sadly failed.
Neat and clean and people are friendly, but the 1 bedroom where we stayed at home is very small and cramped, we couldn't fit our bags in the room. There is coffee and sugar, but the powdered milk is bitterly bad and then undrinkable. There is also no soap provided at the sink or shower. There is no microwave and couldn't heat leftover roadside food. Coffee mugs must be washed in the bathroom sink, nothing facilities for a kitchen. Not worth R500.
The host was very friendly and the bed was comfortable. The shower sprays on the ceiling and walls and we had to remove the shower head to avoid a huge mess. There is no mirror near an electrical plug for drying hair or applying make-up. The kettle is not cordless and must be filled at the bathroom sink. The cottage is right next to a busy road with vehicles and trucks that make noise all night. We booked for 4 people but the table only has 2 chairs and only 2 towels are provided. The accommodation has potential but needs some minor changes to make it comfortable. We suggest that the owner stays there himself to determine what is missing. The phone number given also reached voicemail several times and we were unable to contact the owner.
We actually just slept there. For one, the room booked was not given to us. Another room was given. The cutlery sink is actually the bathroom sink, which we feel is not suitable. The hot water tap was loose. Because we stayed at a different guest house when we went down to the Cape, we can say that for the same money we would have preferred to spend the night at the first one. Comparing the 2 fees, we feel more could be done with the accommodation. The bedding was all clean so we can't complain about that. The contact number that was given to us was not answered at first and was not called back either. Then a w upp was sent, and only the next day was it answered. For people on vacation returning home, one is in a tense situation if you do not have contact with your overnight accommodation. There was no contact made from Berry Hill; it just came from our side.
R500 for one night? No, what!
After 9 hours on the road, it was very disappointing. We couldn't get the door open because the handle didn't work. The fridge wasn't cold. Surely, the fridge should be switched on if you know I'm travelling from GP and you know that load shedding will start close to my arrival. Then you would have known that it's out of order. Plugs were an issue. If I didn't have a lead with me, I could not use the fan. Very poor communication from the owner. Load shedding cannot be blamed for poor management of the unit. The garden looks like a building site, and the property is not safe.
