106 guests' feedbackFriendly service, nice room.
Absolutely loved our stay at Blue Rain Bed and Breakfast! From the moment we arrived, we felt safe and secure in a welcoming environment. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The service was top-notch, and they went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Plus, the location couldn't be more perfect—close to all the best spots while still being a peaceful retreat. I highly recommend Blue Rain to anyone looking for a charming and delightful getaway!
Absolutely wonderful! Enjoy!
We had a very nice stay. Will choose Blue Rain again for sure! Family of 5 - children 6, 10, 12 years.
5-star. Staff were friendly and professional.
Everything was value for money. Will definitely stay there again.
Absolutely outstanding service! Beautiful place and very centrally located. Would book there anytime and recommend to anyone visiting Bloemfontein!
Very nice stay, love the decor and where the guest house is located.
Very nice host. Accommodation was fantastic. Breakfast was great. Everything was just perfect.
Very neat and quiet.
Very comfortable and peaceful.
Yes, would recommend the accommodation to other people passing through Bloemfontein. The rooms are nice and dark for people who have trouble sleeping with too much light.
Beautiful, clean and a quiet resting place after a long drive.
We slept over on the way back from East London. It was wonderful to be able to sleep at a guest house where we could park our caravan safely. They even offered to help with unhooking and pushing if needed.
I just don't love that the toilet in the rooms doesn't have a door.
We slept over on the way to our destination and had a very nice stay. Lovely quiet environment with beautiful room and delicious breakfast. Would highly recommend and would love to stay here again. We were not aware in advance that there is no direct access from the N1 to the guest house, but this was not a problem. We were able to have dinner at a restaurant closer than 2 km from the guest house.
Very comfortable and just right.
Very nice, neat and very safe location. Well appointed rooms. Clean rooms and neat garden. Secure parking. Reception very friendly. Delicious breakfast. Can recommend.
We enjoyed our stay. We were comfortable and safe. Comfortable overnight stay and delicious breakfast.
It was great! Very calm. Only stayed for one night, but the bed was comfortable, shower was nice and hot and everything was tidy. Breakfast was plain and simple but at least tasted good!
It had been delicious. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Very nice stay. Friendly staff.
Yes. We arrived quite late and they were still able to help us with dinner.
We had a great stay at Blue Rain Guesthouse. The room is well equipped and is exactly as advertised.
It was an enjoyable stay. Place is nice. The unit could use an upgrade of kitchen crockery & cutlery. Towels & blankets need to be replaced. No hangers in the cupboards. Attention to details lacking. Some cleanliness items need attention. Housekeeping needs some guidance & management. WiFi was poor & signal was patchy.
Very neat and clean with lovely rooms. Great breakfast and the most welcoming owners.
Always nice to stay here. The place became our destination for our business trips. This time we had to get in the way a little before the usual breakfast time and they arranged breakfast for us earlier.
The premises are located in a safe area and the place is functional. Delicious breakfast.
Als was very nice, will definitely use it again. The staff is very, very nice.
The corporate unit is very well appointed and perfect for a family of 4. We had a very nice stay. The breakfast the next morning was also delicious.
Always fun at Blue Rain. Very friendly owners and management. Everything is neat, clean and the photos are a true indication of the rooms. The breakfast was again delicious as before. Definitely a good place for business travelers.
We arrived at about 8 pm. The security on duty was extremely helpful.
Friendly service, location very good. Modern, beautiful, neat and clean. Will definitely stay here again.
The owner and her team are incredibly friendly! Very peaceful place with a swimming pool and a large garden where children can run around. The rooms are very well appointed and met our needs! The breakfast was delicious and Blue Rain's team on duty made sure we felt welcome and carried us on their hands! Will stay there again for sure!
Reception was friendly and the accommodation met expectations.
We had a very nice stay, the breakfast was very nice and they were very nice to serve it earlier.
Delicious breakfast. Would definitely recommend.
Blue Rain is pleasant accommodation in a quiet and peaceful environment. Clean and tidy. Friendly staff.
Very nice rooms with lovely garden, thank you!
One of the best places we have slept in Bloemfontein.
The location surprised us as it was so far from the highway. The hostess is very helpful and made us feel right at home. The room is beautiful and the breakfast was exquisite and delicious. Thank you for someone who goes the extra mile.
Will visit again if the opportunity arises. Price is definitely fair for what is offered.
Guidance takes you to a locked gate.
We slept over back to Pretoria. The bed was very comfortable and everything was tidy. The breakfast was very nice, especially the plate with muesli, yogurt and fruit. The hot breakfast was freshly made and we were ready for the rest of our trip.
Very nice, clean and tidy. Had a great sleep on a very comfortable bed. Also appreciated the coffee machine. Can see that time and effort has been invested in the content of the room and the rest of the guest house. The block out curtains were great.
Would recommend to anyone. Very modern rooms and nice places to eat around the corner.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms are spacious and clean. Pet friendly an added advantage. Highlight was meeting the owner, Andre. Veronica and staff must be complimented for their excellent service.
It was beautiful and amazing.
Lizelle, the owner, and her team of staff are very friendly, professional and helpful. The breakfast was excellent and the rooms' beds very comfortable and clean.
Very good accommodation and service, will definitely book here again. The Blue Rain team was very helpful and friendly. The room is luxurious and still welcoming and set up for dogs.
Excellent rooms. Lovely, friendly people. Beautiful gardens. Will be back.
Dog friendly. Very friendly staff.
We really enjoyed our stay. All our needs met and more. Friendly and hospitable. Thank you Veronica. Lizelle you and your team are excellent!
Great service, thank you for wonderful stay.
We were a little skeptical at first because it felt so deep and far away, but I/we were pleasantly surprised with the good reception, nice rooms and yes the breakfast was top notch with a very friendly and pleasant hostess - all this justifies a visit again and the place is highly recommended.
From the booking, the check-in, the rooms, the warm welcome and nice chats, good breakfast and beautiful location, everything was just "awesome". I will definitely stay there again.
Thank you very much for the upgrade, unexpected but welcome.
We would definitely like to stay here again.
Very clean, tidy. Wheelchair accessible, large room with space to move around. Usually we have to move furniture so that my husband can move with his wheelchair and here it was not necessary. Bathroom is accessible and wheelchair able to enter shower. Breakfast was off the books and staff friendly and very helpful. Will stay there again for sure.
We overnighter at Blue Rain on our journey and it was a great stay. Really friendly staff and tasty breakfast.
Great nature surroundings with lots of bird life and great surrounding restaurants.
Beautiful tasteful accommodation, first quality breakfast and pet friendly, definitely an overnight stop for the next trip down to the Cape.
The guest house was a bit far from the N1, but still in a peaceful rural setting with a place to eat nearby. Thank you very much for a comfortable room and delicious breakfast.
Service is fantastic and defiantly value for your money.
An overnight stay where the manager really makes you feel welcome and at home. We look forward to enjoying Blue Rain's hospitality again. We also found the delicious breakfast delicious and appreciated the kindness and grace with which our Scnauzer was handled.
Amazing breakfast, pet friendly.
It was the most enjoyable to arrive at the guest house and you walk into a little piece of heaven on earth. Amanda was helpful and friendly and our rooms were off the books. Beds slept great and the breakfast was one big treat. We will definitely visit here again.
We had a very nice stay. The room was particularly spacious and tastefully and comfortably furnished. We really appreciated that it wasn't overstuffed with all kinds of goodies like many other guesthouses' rooms. After a long day's driving we didn't feel like going out for dinner, but thanks to the small kitchen and a table and chairs we could heat our own food and enjoy it. Good blackout blinds and curtains together with a quality mattress and bed linen ensured a good night's rest. There is also a nice sitting area outside the room next to the pool to enjoy good weather. The breakfast was of very good quality.
The room is beautiful and we were especially surprised by the delicious packed breakfast that was in the fridge. This after I mentioned we won't have breakfast the next morning because we want to drive early!
Blue Rain is a lovely guest house and offers good value for a weary traveller. Everything is neat and stylish, and there are two restaurants within 1km for a quick dinner. I would just like to see a better coffee option than instant coffee in the rooms.
Room 10 was beautiful.
The beds were comfortable and the place was tidy. Unfortunately did not have enough sugar bags for all 4 guests. Breakfast was great but many would suggest that they might ask who wants coffee, juice or both instead. bring all 2 and have to throw away. Same with the breakfast. Will definitely stop there again.
See stars.
Thank you, Juanita, for all your help and professionalism! We really enjoyed our visit with you and will definitely come again! Breakfast on the deck was a highlight. Thanks again! We would definitely recommend you.
Slept with a business colleague. It is close to everything, rooms are spacious, clean and neat. It's close to everything.
On the website I used the link to overnight accommodation where our dog, Kabar, a pointer, would be accepted. We just needed a nice bed on the way back to Johannesburg and would be on the road again early in the day. My attention, however, was drawn by the simple, neat decor of the place. What a surprise awaited us! Early in the morning I woke up with an awareness of space around me - lots of it - and the sound of fields, of fresh air, but mostly the feeling of weather being absolutely safe! During breakfast we had a wonderful time with our host and wife while we could look far! Kabar could easily go out at night and sneak through the large garden! Thank you so much Blue Rain, it was a very positive experience!
Very friendly staff.
We had necessary freezing facilities. And without any hesitation they helped us. Wonderful people and felt at home.
We really enjoyed the sleepover. Helpful and kind people. We had a great time and enjoyed the breakfast too! We can recommend the guesthouse.
Als was great! Very nice and very good guest house!
Not only is Blue Rain a beautiful and tidy guest house, the breakfast and customer service were great. I would recommend it to any person.
Friendly reception by Amanda. Our room was clean modern and spacious with everything we needed. We were spoiled with a delicious breakfast the next morning which was served by Lizelle (owner) herself. Fantastic experience that deserves full marks in every aspect. The Blue Rain Guesthouse will definitely see us again.
Friendly and helpful staff. Top quality accommodation and facilities. Quiet country atmosphere.
It was beautiful and neat. Lovely breakfast.
Was very friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable and clean. Can do with new towels, but generally it was pleasant.
Clean and well decorated, a lovely spot.
Friendly service with a peaceful atmosphere and central location. Will go back.
Als is very neat and would definitely stay there again. I would just suggest that they put a coffee 'plunger' and filter coffee in the rooms. Will suit the beautiful place.
Very neat guesthouse with Amanda as the manager. She was very helpful and the breakfast was delicious. Will definitely make use of Blue Rain when we visit Bloemfontein again.
It is a beautiful guesthouse. All that is needed is available in the stylish bedroom and en-suite bathroom.
Friendly, very good customer service. Breakfast was delicious. Will definitely stay here again.
The singers Dozi, Refentse and their band stayed at Blue Rain during their performance at the Vryfees and cannot stop talking about the wonderful time they had at Blue Rain. André Venter and his team left no stone unturned to make sure everything went well. André went out of his way to satisfy all fads and goats. Will definitely stay at Blue Rain Guesthouse again!
A big thank you to Amanda, Andre and Lizelle. From the first moment we arrived, we were warmly received. Amanda helped us with the road directions and she was always there with any help and assistance to make our stay comfortable. The peaceful, clean surroundings were great for getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city. All the other staff were also friendly and were great to be served in my own language. We will use Blue Rain Guesthouse's services again at any time. Thank you very much again for the extra accommodation for my daughter, we really appreciate it.
Many thanks Amanda, Lizelle and staff for incredible service, delicious breakfast, personal detail, clean and tidy units with amazing interior. We felt welcome upon entering. You go the extra mile and guests are comfortable, pampered and friendly. We had a great time at your place and will definitely come back again!
Hulle het hul bes gedoen om ons spesifieke dieet-vereistes te akkommodeer.
Everything was very neat and clean. The drivers were friendly and helpful. The accommodation was modern and comfortable.
See the stars.
We only stayed one night. We booked the standard room and we were pleasantly surprises when we were upgraded to a luxury room with a view, at no extra cost. The guest house has a tranquil atmosphere, is decorated beautifully and has good security and safe undercover parking. We would like to stay here again in future!
A true gem in Bloemfontein for any business trip. I was pleasantly surprised by the overall quality and detail of this guesthouse. I will in the future only use them for any of my business trips in the area!
The room was wonderfully heated, spacious and very tidy with the warm blanket already on to warm the queen-size bed on the cold day. The bathroom is a treat for the eyes and the body. The breakfast and hospitality are of outstanding quality. Do yourself a favor and go experience Blue Rain Guesthouse.
We had a great barbecue and slept in the midst of 37 degree heat. The boys also enjoyed swimming to cool off. We will definitely use them again when we have to stay in Bloemfontein.
I really enjoyed my stay with Blue Rain Guesthouse. The welcome was warm and our room was spotless. We stayed very nice and warm and were spoiled with a huge breakfast. Although Blue Rain is located a bit out of town, we were still not far from town at all. There is also a shopping center around the corner which is very convenient. The only thing that could be improved is to make spoons available in the room. It would also be nice if information regarding the WiFi and gymnasium were passed on when checking in. Otherwise we had a very nice stay.
Our visit to Blue Rain Guesthouse was all we needed for an overnight stay between Johannesburg and the Eastern Cape! The whole set-up is very neat, but the rooms are especially very modern and comfortable and have everything you could need. The guest house is 5 to 10 minutes away from all the nice places to eat. The breakfast at Blue Rain Guesthouse was also particularly delicious! Excellent value for money!
The accommodation was easy to find and is located close to Woodland hills shopping centre. The accommodation was also clean and the breakfast was delicious. The premises in general are very safe. I will definitely stay in Blue Rain Guesthouse again.
Upmarket guesthouses in Bloemfontein exceed by far any of the four or five star hotels which are usually frequented by noisy officials partying throughout the night! Many of these guesthouses are also within easy travelling distance to the N1 for travellers who resume their journey to Gauteng the following day. Bloemfontein is an ideal stopover for people who travel from Southern Cape to Gauteng.
