507 guests' feedbackLovely stay and service was excellent.
Pleasant overnight stay.
Very pleasant. Thank you.
Great stay, clean, safe, friendly, helpful. Excellent!
Friendly reception. Very clean and tidy. A place where you feel at home.
Comfortable and clean. Friendly service.
The second time in five months that we have stayed at Elsa's. Once again a very friendly welcome. Stayed in a different room than last time. The room was also extremely well furnished, spotless and very comfortable. Many thanks to you and your staff for your friendly welcome and genuine Karoo hospitality. It made us feel very at home and comfortable. We come again!
Very nice stay. Friendly people.
Elsa is the loveliest person and so accommodating. The accommodation was clean and well laid out. Beds are firm and super comfy.
Elsa is very friendly and helped us with dinner despite the fact we did not make a dinner reservation.
We had a wonderful stay. Neat and spacious rooms. Hospitality great.
Traveling with my dachshund and he was very happy staying at Elsa's@27. He had his own space to explore and not bother any other guest. Breakfast was a spoil.
Had a great stay and received a friendly and professional welcome from Elsa. Just felt at home right away! Will definitely stay there again!
Elsa was the perfect hostess. The room had everything we wanted, including an awesome bed. The food was great, especially the picnic lunch which Elsa packed for us.
Very nice stay, thank you.
Elsa is a hostess. She recommended a nice place to eat, where we could also watch rugby! And really went out of her way to get a package that I forgot from me.
Had a wonderful stay. A warm welcome, a lovely large room and bathroom, secure parking. A delicious breakfast ordered. Employees are pleasant. Would recommend the place.
Was delicious. Very neat and well equipped. Beautiful decoration and very cozy outside living area. We would recommend anyone traveling through Britstown to stay at Elsa's @ 27!
We were received very hospitably and had a wonderful stay. The stay at Elsa's @ 27 has thought of everything to make one's stay comfortable. We will definitely stay there again in the future.
Friendly hostess. Neat and clean.
Excellent communication and hospitality by the host with clean and tidy lodging. Best bed I have ever slept in as a bonus! Host communicated prior to arrival with details and reminders.
Our generous hostess went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. Her facility is spotless and her staff friendly. Her dinners on demand are legendary for experiencing old-world hospitality. A perfect place to recharge your batteries before continuing your journey.
I cannot recommend this place enough. Communication was amazing. We wanted to switch rooms from 3 to 1 as we have a baby, the host was so accommodating. They go the extra mile with quality linen and they even brought a corkscrew after dark. I would definitely stay again.
The hostess went the extra mile by making an effort so that our dog could also come along.
We thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything is perfect and we can recommend it with peace of mind. We will definitely stay here again. The breakfast was delicious! Best we have ever experienced.
Slept nice and warm and nicely furnished.
Greatly relaxed and slept. Very safe.
Amazing hospitality and safe.
Very nice stay, the owner was also very friendly and helpful.
Stayed here before, and will do it again. Clean, neat and accommodating. And let my bike sleep in the garage.
Wonderful stay. There was bad weather when I was driving in, and the host called to make sure I was driving safely.
Our stay at the accommodation was wonderful.
Lovely tidy pet friendly rooms half way to the Cape. The owner goes out of her way to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Everything we needed for our one night stopover.
The oasis of Britstown! Great hospitality - everything you need after a long drive through the Karoo. Ask for the braai-pakkie and braaibroodjies. Very nice when you're not into takeaways on arrival.
Had a great stay! Friendly and helpful staff.
We slept incredibly well at Elsa's. It is truly a must to go home there. Very safe, clean, beautiful, great service. The breakfast is a must, it was incredibly delicious. Everyone there is super friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay there again anytime.
Absolutely brilliant. Will highly recommend this place to everyone.
The friendly hospitality made the whole stay worthwhile, as well as the Karoo-inspired accommodation and safety of the area. Highly recommended for anyone passing Britstown on their road trip.
Good and comfortable place to stay for travelers between Gauteng and the Cape.
Very convenient with parking in the garage.
Very nice. Everything was top notch. Dinner was delicious. Thank you Elsa.
Great resting place in a town where I wouldn't even consider sleeping over otherwise.
Very nice about sleeping place. Very pleasant staff.
Lay stay after friendly reception by Elsa on a hot day and without electricity. However, a generator kept the fan and refrigerator running. Feel free to try Elsa's meals if they are available. Thank you Elsa.
Fantastic place with dear and friendly hostess. Definitely our new stopover on the way to Mossel Bay!
We have never stayed with our dogs anywhere else with such ease: Being able to close the outside area gates meant we had no worries about the dogs bothering anyone else. Everyone was very friendly, and gave us valuable bits of information for the trip.
Very tastefully restored. Comfortable and clean rooms as well as a large private braai/hangout area in front of the stoepie. Very friendly and good service by Elsa and her team.
Thank you, our room was spotless and the hostess was a very good hostess. We had everything we needed for a comfortable evening with the kids.
A warm welcome on arrival and very comfortable and clean accommodation made our stay perfect. We can highly recommend this establishment.
Elsa is incredibly hospitable and professional. We had a great time and would recommend her anytime. She also makes the most delicious dinner!
Excellent owner and staff. Highly recommend.
I had a great time. Due to car problems, we only got there very late (10:30 in the evening) and they were still accommodating and friendly. I would gladly recommend them. The place was neat and clean and the dogs were safe and even had a place to run around if we had stayed longer.
Nice accommodation. Assisted with food for even our 'pickiest' eater. Home-style food that will fill you for days.
Had a nice stay and slept cuddly and warm. Nice country food.
Satisfied all my needs.
Great, friendly and helpful. Amazing shower! Lively breakfast in the morning with super friendly staff.
Was received very kindly and the owner went out of her way to ensure that we had a comfortable and convenient stay. We use a camping fridge in our car during our travels and we were immediately supplied with an electrical extension cord to keep the fridge running in our car, safely in the garage overnight. We ordered cooked peasant food for dinner and it was delicious and more than enough. Shame that we couldn't eat everything.
Good, quiet, clean and safe.
Very nice and very friendly people.
Yes, stay was excellent.
Good, as it met all our needs.
One night stay en route from Cape Town to Johannesburg. Our hostess was very accommodating as we arrived late. Room was spotlessly clean.
Our room was clean and spacious. The host is a real character, making us feel welcome. When she heard that we were yearning for an ice-cold beer after a long drive on a hot summer day, she told us that there is no pub in Britstown anymore. An hour later, she brought us 2 bottles which she had quickly cooled down in her freezer. The host is going the extra mile.
It was very nice, the host is so sweet and helpful!
We stayed. Clean and tidy place, could smell it when we walked in. Friendly and pleasant host. I definitely recommend.
Great stay. Definitely value for money. Hostess was great, made so much effort. A nice warm room and bed were waiting for us. Recommend the accommodation.
The facilities were great and very tidy.
A clean and tidy place is always nice!
Very friendly hostess, the rooms are clean and beautiful and we had a very nice dinner.
Very nice stay. Just right for a traveler after a long day on the road.
Bedroom and bathroom were excellent and nicely furnished. The garden is enclosed by a concrete wall. Great for a stopover. There was delicious cooking for us!
Very nice if clean and tidy. First class will definitely stay there again. Thank you very much.
Thank you for your hospitality, service, arrangements and good food. The accommodation is top notch! Go big!
Good overnight accommodation after a long journey.
Would stay at Elsa's again anytime. Unit very clean and everything we needed for the overnight stay. Elsa and Paulina went out of their way to help and were very friendly. Feeling at home.
Very nice sleep over for the evening. The host went out of her way to make it comfortable for us and our dachshund. Inside and outside very neat and clean. Felt very much at home.
The accommodation was homely, artistic, comfortable and warm so in the cold of winter. Reception was hospitable, friendly and accommodating.
Clean, tidy, comfortable spacious room.
The host was very helpful, and her daughter went the extra mile to help with selecting the correct route for the next day.
Elsa was a lovely host - the accommodation very comfortable - little things thought of (fresh milk in the fridge, a microwave in the room, anti-mosquito measures available, air-conditioning, WiFi, etc.). Very roomy bathroom & bedroom - undercover patio for relaxing & braaing, table + chairs there. Smooth check-in as well as no problem for early checkout. Great overnight break for a long drive.
Great stay. Friendly reception. Erf ideal for pet traveling together. Well appointed and nice and private.
Very neat and spacious with parking in the garage. DSTV and WiFi a bonus.
Yip. Very nice enjoyed it a lot, especially the breakfast.
Clean, tidy and comfortable overnight room.
Elsa was very welcoming. The room well equipped. Elsa provided a good evening meal for us.
Would recommend but not Britstown.
See stars.
Very comfortable and clean accommodation. Owner very friendly and helpful.
Beautiful rooms. Nice place to sleep for our long trip. Delicious dinner for our large group.
The hospitality was amazing and everything we needed was there. Would recommend it at all times.
It was very nice.
Perfect place to stop over after a long day on the road.
Very cute place. The host was very hospitable and the accommodation was clean and tidy.
Very nice and safe. Good service. Staff friendly.
Nice stop with the dogs on the way to the West Coast. Their food is fantastic!
Very nice stay. Very hospitable.
Friendly reception, clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend it.
Family and animal- overall a great driving overnight rest point.
Hospitality was top notch! Makes you feel welcome and at home! Was our second time at the place and will definitely visit again.
I have stayed several times at Elsa's @ 27. It feels like family welcoming you. Elsa goes out of her way to make sure you are comfortable and satisfied. The units are very spacious, comfortable and well equipped for anything you may need. The food is very tasty every time and more than enough. The residence is safe and almost opposite the N12, but still quiet and peaceful. It is a great choice for an overnight stay, or even a longer visit.
Pleasant reception with friendly directions. All in good working order and condition.
We had a great time at Elsa's place.
Very friendly people.
Elsa has put in a lot of effort and goes out of her way to help you.
Room and bathroom painfully neat. They go out of their way to keep you satisfied. Excellent dinner (roast meat). Small things like hot water bottle during load shedding, light to use in the bathroom. Friendly and competent staff. I could pay single fare.
Clean, comfortable, practical and absolutely nothing to criticize. Attention is clearly paid here to small, important things that facilitate your stay. Power during load shedding is a big plus! Our little dog was also safe and welcome.
Compliments to the chef. We enjoyed a roast leg of lamb and veggies which was absolutely divine. Our room was so stylish, "baie keurig". Elsa is a treat. Such a great and "chatty" host. We will be back.
Elsa is very friendly and a good hostess. Room is very comfortable and very good standard for room and bathroom.
We really enjoyed the sleepover. The hostess was very friendly. It felt like we had known her for years! We ate well and slept warm.
Elsa is very friendly and helpful. Accommodation comfortable and clean. Dinner was delicious. Good place to stay the night.
Will stay at Elsa's @ 27 again.
Hostess is friendly, very nice dinner, safe parking and a great room that has everything you need. We come again.
I really enjoyed my visit.
Pleasant surprise in such a small town. Had a wonderful stay. Very pleasant, hospitable people!
Elsa's is a real gem of a haven for the weary traveller. Elsa welcomes you with open-faced hospitality. The rooms are neatly clean and warm in winter. The roast rib dinner was honest warm home cooking, followed by Pollina's breakfast with a curry stew. Truly value for money.
Thank you very much for the warm welcome and overnight stay. Hope we have the opportunity to spend the night there again soon.
Elsa's hospitality was very welcoming. Order your braai pack with all the side dishes before you arrive and you won't be disappointed. After a long day on the road, arriving at Elsa's was such a relief. We will definitely stay with her again.
The room is spacious, friendly hostess and warm beds! Clean and tidy. Definitely a recommendation!
Elsa is an outstanding hostess. Our room was perfectly equipped with everything we needed. Five stars for lovely linen.
We were received very kindly. Very neat and secure unit. Load power didn't bother us thanks to the generator. Will stay here again.
Felt very at home. My car was sleeping in lock up garage. The sleeping place and bathroom are very comfortable. Very good security measures are in place. Even the maids and workers are very friendly and helpful. Beds were deliciously soft, warm and clean after a 1000 km drive.
Elsa and her employees were friendly. Our room was nice and comfortable with its own yard where our dogs could run around. The beds were comfortable. The place is always clean and tidy. We will definitely stay here again if we travel on the N12. You pay extra for pet animals, but I expected that.
See stars.
Friendly and very good service. Was very helpful. Very neat and beautiful room. Nice dinner.
We had a lovely stay at Elsa's B&B. The accommodation was neat, clean and allowed for safe parking just outside the room which was very convenient. Elsa was very friendly and arranged for us to switch rooms when she saw we had 2 small children for whom a bath in the room would be more appropriate. We had a good barbecue and a great sleep - rested for the next day on the road. We will definitely stay at Elsa's place again in the future!
Beautiful home, we immediately felt at home. Breakfast was top notch, would definitely recommend.
We know Elsa for many years of sleeping over with her! What more could one want than a neat and clean place to sleep with the delicious braai pack, braai bread and 2 salads. It is absolutely the icing on the cake after many hours of driving! Vehicles are locked and bolted and because we travel with our blind puppy, the yard for each unit is just a bonus for both animal and owner! Thank you Elsa for all your effort every time we stay. Grandpa Pat would give you a pat on the back!
Would recommend Elsa's @ 27 anytime. Very neat and easy to find.
Very hospitable and friendly.
The accommodation was clean, spacious, safe and well located. There was the added bonus of a lock up garage.
Elsa is a wonderful host. She was most accommodating to all our needs. Beautiful, clean, and very comfortable rooms. Dinner was delicious.
Elsa is a gem, always willing to help and she makes delicious dinners.
Elsa is a wonderful host. Warm and welcoming. Knows everything about Britstown and surrounds, even told me about some delicious milk tart 300 km away (milk tart was indeed delicious). Highly recommended.
The place is beautiful and the hostess felt like a friend.
The room was comfortable and tidy. Elsa, as host, was pleasant and full of information regarding the best routes and places to stop for food and some shopping. The dinner was tasty and plenty.
We had everything we needed and were even able to enjoy a delicious dinner!
Thank goodness for the air conditioning. Miena received us kindly and served us a delicious breakfast the next morning.
Very nice overnight stay and the hospitality was fantastic and a lot of effort was made. Thank you very much will definitely recommend the place.
Elsa's places are beautiful and clean. I felt absolutely at home. She is lovely and hospitable. She goes the extra mile for her guests.
Cleanliness is noticeable.
My car was sleeping in a lock up garage! They also made freezing facilities available on request. Elsa went the proverbial extra mile! Will sleep there every time I travel to Pretoria. Nice half way.
The hostess, Elsa, received us personally and with her spontaneous warmth crawled deep into our hearts. In the future, we will adjust our travel plans so that we spend the night with her.
Friendly reception.
Elsa and the staff had everything prepared on arrival and arranged salads and braai packs. Checked whether we needed anything. We overnighted from the West coast back to Gauteng, was a good break along the way.
Nice stay. There is everything a traveler needs.
Great place. Had a really nice bath. Safe and secure car parking. Clean. Good value for money.
Elsa was very hospitable and made us feel very much at home. The facilities are very neat, clean and comfortable. Would love to stay there again.
Driving into Britstown for the first time in our lives we were skeptical about what to expect but we were so surprised (and happy) to see Elsa's @27 it was actually a sigh of relief when we stopped there . Elsa was very friendly and helpful and the room we slept in was large, clean, tidy and met everything we expected. The beds are of a high quality and comfortable. An oasis!
Karoo hospitality and helpfulness that make it impossible not to feel at home. Meals of excellent quality and very tasty prepared.
Elsa's @ 27 really meets all my requirements. Is pet friendly and safe for a car full of belongings.
Elza is a very friendly hostess. The winter sheets and electric blanket were a big plus.
Elsa and all the staff were wonderful and the accommodation was top notch.
Elsa and staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and at home. Beautiful clean accommodation!
Comfortable and large room. The side dishes with braai meat were delicious (we had braai breads to everyone's taste, but also a large portion of pasta salad). Had a nice overnight stop.
The host was prepared to provide us with supper and breakfast the following morning.
Very noisy the whole night.
Tasteful, everything you need. The TV didn't work. Sorry about environment and noise. WiFi number is not given.
I would highly recommend this establishment. Elsa is delightful and her B&B is very well run.
Good food and hospitable people.
Friendly welcome, clean and tidy. Will stay there again.
Outstanding hospitality, neat, clean unit. Elsa prepared a delicious dinner with home-baked bread for us at very short notice. She goes out of her way to make guests feel at home, would definitely recommend.
It's a shame the town is in such a terrible state with very few amenities. Very pleasant stay.
Cute, clean and great hostess. Elsa, you are a star.
Had a wonderful overnight stay. Slept very well. Elsa you can be lucky to have such a good woman Polina who welcomed us, she is very kind and helpful. Thanks for the ice cream after such a long day of driving. Will definitely stay there again. We give you 20 out of 10.
We really enjoyed our stay. Elsa makes an effort to make her guests feel welcome. An extra bonus was when we could store the meat we were traveling with overnight in the freezer. Dinner was delicious and we were able to park our cars safely. Would definitely recommend Elsa's @ 27.
Elsa was the perfect hostess, friendly and very hospitable. Emergency generator used when there was load shedding.
The owner is very pleasant and loving. She is very friendly and helpful. We got there and were immediately helped and directed to our room. The room was beautiful and tidy. We slept great.
Hospitable, hospitable, hospitable.
An oasis on a long road! Excellent service.
Secure parking. Close to eatery. Breakfast was delicious. Staff friendly and considerate.
Very friendly and helpful reception, delicious dinner and breakfast and beds that sleep wonderfully, well-equipped room - what more could one want?
Elsa is a wonderful hostess and we really regretted not being able to stay in Britstown for a few days. Would absolutely recommend Elsa's@27. The dinners were also delicious and a very nice treat after a long day on the road!
Such a lovely hostess! Beautiful room. Have fun! Very neat overnight accommodation. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Elsa.
The friendliest welcome and warm Karoo hospitality, with an accommodation facility stylishly furnished with everything (and more) required for an overnight stopover. It was our first time at Elsa's @ 27, but it literally became one of our favorite sleepovers overnight. Nothing was too much trouble and we had a great stay!
This facility is a gem and wonderful find in Britstown. Strongly recommend it to other travelers and I will certainly use it again!
Very friendly, accommodating and go out of their way to make your stay as pleasant as possible.
Beautiful, clean, warm, comfortable accommodation with polite, helpful staff. Elsa is a perfect hostess who spent a lot of time with us, hugely knowledgeable about the area and services available. Recommend 100% and a definitive stayover should we travel through the Britstown area again.
Very friendly hostess, Elsa. Delicious cooked food. Make the best jam. Neat warm please.
Enjoyed it a lot. Room was cozy. Will book there again in the future.
Elsa and her team are wonderful hostesses who warmly welcome you and make you feel at home the moment you arrive. Delicious, homemade meals prepared by them can be enjoyed after a long journey. The rooms are beautiful and homely and there is plenty of space for pets traveling with them. I will come again for sure!
Will definitely visit again. Great overnight stay and tasty meal!
The place is very easy to find. Plenty of parking. Wonderful room we had. The hostess brought boiling water in a flask when we arrived during load shedding so we could make something to drink. Also the first place to sleep where there were warm sheets for the winter on the beds. The hostess made us feel so at home. I would recommend everyone to stay there.
It's the second time we have stayed here, and we will certainly stay again next time we are travelling through Brits. It's a great place to overnight on the way to Kgalagadi.
My husband spent the night there on his way to work in Paris. He had a very nice stay.
Had a great time at Elsa's. Place is neat and clean. Had a great sleep. Our time there was just too short.
We have in no. 3 at Elsa @ 27 overnight. The house is a real old Karoo house that Elsa has repaired where necessary. However, it was done in such a way that the Karoo character was preserved. For example, the dining room still has the original wooden floor that creaks nicely when you walk on it ─ it just makes me want to go back in time! Our little dog was welcome and that counts for a lot of points (arranged in advance)! We could sleep with an open door, because the dog's area or yard is properly fenced and there is even a water bowl to quench the thirst! Yes see, Elsa pays attention to small detail and that makes Elsas @ 27 a nice place to stay! What stood out for me were the good mattresses used and the real Karoo hospitality we experienced! I haven't been able to sleep so well in a long time! Only the best. Two days before our arrival, Elsa called to find out if we were going to have dinner and breakfast and if so, what she could prepare for us! After 2 weeks of eating seafood we thought a Karoo chop would do just the trick. I asked Elsa to get us braai packages and then I will braai myself! When we arrived at Vanrhynspass, the pass was closed due to an accident and we could only drive again after 3 hours of waiting. I let Elsa know that we would therefore be arriving late and she offered that we could then join the other guests for dinner if we so preferred. The offer was gratefully accepted as we were dead tired and there won't really be time left for barbecue. Thank you Elsa and team, we will definitely stay with you again!
What a nice stay it was. Thank you Elsa for your love, good food and the pleasant stay. It was such a nice country visit.
This was the nicest and best sleepover ever in a very long time. The quality of Elsa's beds is top notch. Elsa's hospitality is homecoming for a weary soul and her kindness is so contagious. It feels like you've known her for years. Breakfast is off the books. Paulina and her staff make the most delicious breakfast and coffee. I will make this our annual stop on the way to the Western Cape. Thank you very much Elsa's. You guys are tops.
Rooms very neat and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Paulina was very friendly. Will definitely stay there again. Thank you very much.
Elsa goes the extra mile for her guests! Our dinner was delicious - lamb chops, baked potato with a fresh salad. And the mushroom sauce was delicious. Elsa definitely deserves a five star! Thank you Elsa, you made us feel so at home! The best in Britstown. P.S. That tomato and quince jam is damn tasty.
Elsa is a top chef. Terribly delicious food. Mutton stew was tops.
See stars.
Don't have enough words to describe hospitality. Dinner of excellent quality, very tasty prepared.
Elsa went out of her way, just nice with everything. dinner and breakfast from the top shelves. My Labrador, dog child was just as happy.
It's easy to communicate with Elsa and she always comes back to a query. She bends over backwards to fulfill your requests and puts her personal care stamp on them. I would definitely recommend her, her place is neat, well located and safe. Elsa's upstairs.
The rooms are clean and tidy. The breakfast was value for money. Would recommend to anyone.
We wanted to barbecue. Elsa provided, free of charge, a fully packed tray, with delicious salads to enjoy with the roast beef. Excellent service.
Beautiful, clean accommodation with the friendliest hostess who serves delicious meals. It was a privilege to experience genuine Karoo hospitality at Elsa's. I wish we could spend more time there. I can confidently recommend Elsa's!
Very pleasant experience hated. Place is nice and clean and the hostess goes out of her way to help.
Had a good and safe overnight accommodation and a nice breakfast. Will sleep there again if we go to the Western Cape.
Very clean, helpful, friendly.
The accommodation is very comfortable, clean and tidy and ideal for an overnight stay on the way to Cape Town. Elsa is very friendly and helpful. Would recommend it!
The breakfast and dinner offered were wholesome and good quality at a reasonable cost.
See stars.
Air conditioning was very welcome, as well as breakfast was pleasant. Lock up garage was welcome.
Very neat place to stay. Barbecue for dinner was top notch. Salad, potato salad and barbecue sandwiches were delicious. It was a welcome rest after a long day on the road.
At the coffee table there is delicious coffee, tea, milk, and. However, there was no water or dishcloth. If you want to rinse out the cups or refill the kettle, you have to do it in the bathroom, which in my opinion is totally unhygienic.
Elsa's offers a peaceful and comfortable accommodation for your journey between Gauteng and Western Cape. The units are neatly and comfortably furnished. Elsa's delicious meals are truly recommended. After the many times we have spent the night there, we already feel like family! Thanks Elsa, hope to see you again soon.
Local service delivery lacking.
Elsa was friendly, and helpful. The dinner and breakfast were worth the money. Nice stay.
Had a great time, friendly people.
Best boerewors at breakfast. Elsa is a lovely person!
Very friendly welcome. Very clean and tidy unit with air conditioning.
Friendly people, very neat and clean.

The countryside is deteriorating in terms of maintenance. Due to long distances, Elsa's is well located.
We spent the night at Elsa's. Elsa's staff were very hospitable and went the extra mile to make us feel welcome.
Quiet place, tidy and good service.
Quiet, homely atmosphere, friendly people etc.
Elsa's @ 27 is the perfect stop over for travelling to a destination. It has everything you need for a stop over - comfortable beds, great decor, very clean and tidy, secure parking, private patio area, air-con & TV, quiet surroundings and within walking distance to the towns restaurant. Would highly recommend - we loved our short stay.
I can highly recommend Elsa's @ 27. The decor is tasteful and homely and you immediately feel at home. The food is top notch and the hostess is very professional and very friendly.
Definitely a good choice for an overnight stay after a long day on the road.
Elsa was very helpful.
Went out of their way to get us booked in.
Was very nice and neat. Elsa is incredibly hospitable and friendly. Elsa makes the most delicious food, so do yourself a favor and make a reservation for dinner when you stay here. We really enjoyed the whole experience.
We had such a great stay at Elsa's @ 27. The room was beautiful, clean and comfortable, and Elsa is a wonderful, friendly hostess. The breakfast was 5 star and we indulged in the homemade guava jam. We will definitely stay here again in the future.
Fantastic, off the books, 10 out of 10 for the hostess.
Lovely stay, very friendly service and loved this place!
Room clean, environment clean and tidy! Friendly reception! Best ever.
Every possible convenience. Breakfast recommended.
Nice, safe overnight sleeping place and halfway point for flower viewing.
The room and decor are beautiful, practical and there are braai facilities. Everything works perfectly and is done tastefully.
Neat, clean, beautiful. Beautiful, large bathroom. Cute, old house with a nice, well-kept garden. Ideal overnight stay for travelers with pets on the N12.
After an emotional farewell at a funeral, the fantastic facilities and great hostess were so welcome. Thank you also for being able to have a barbecue there with family that we haven't seen in 5 years. I realize we talked our hearts out, but thank you for accommodating us. It lifted the spirits. Boss accommodation. Definitely see you again soon. Highly recommend.
The food was delicious.
Elsa provides a personal & warm feeling. Clean and tidy room & a nice outside place for our dog. Nice dinner and breakfast. Elsa is an exceptional hostess. Safe place for the car behind a gate.
Warm welcome. Tidy. Animal friendly. Delicious food.
Very friendly and very neat accommodation.
Comfortable, clean room and bathroom. Friendly reception and the breakfast is to be recommended.
Elsa's @ 27 is easy to find and the welcome by Paulina was very warm, even though we didn't arrive until late afternoon. I was glad for the lock up garages for my car and trailer. The room is spacious and well equipped. We also took advantage of the optional fair dinner. It was deliciously prepared and Elsa let herself be guided by the guests' food preferences. She also has a large selection of county jams etc. on display, from which you can purchase. Elsa and Pualina make the tired visitor feel warmly at home. We would love to come again.
We would definitely recommend this place to stay.
Elsa is a fantastic hostess. Facilities and food was excellent.
Had a lovely stay. The owner spares no effort to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Will definitely stay at Elsa's @ 27 again in the future.
Very friendly reception, even though it was late in the evening. The rooms are very neat, clean and tastefully furnished. There is a lock-up garage. Elsa made so much effort for us. Nothing is too much trouble for her. Dinner was delicious. Will stay there again for sure.
Absolutely recommend the guest house! Beautiful, neat and a delicious dinner available on request! Value for money!
Sparkling clean, tastefully decorated, more than adequately equipped, warm welcoming, friendly service, and enjoyable breakfast.
Elsa made so much effort for us! Delicious food, clean units, nothing is too much trouble for her and her team. Will stay there again for sure!
We had 2 lovely stays at Elsa's@27 to and from Cape Town. Highly recommended for an overnight stay.
Perfect place for us and the 4 dogs. Secure parking inside and unit 2 was securely fenced for the dogs. We can definitely recommend the braai pack. Delicious meat, salad, barbecue and has everything you need to make a fire.
Spacious rooms with everything you need. Lock up garage an asset. Enjoy delicious shepherd's cheese cake for dinner. Friendly pleasant people. Accommodation is good.
Our car was able to spend the night in a garage - that's quite special in -3° temp.
Quality beds and bedding. Spotlessly clean and the meal that Elsa offered was divine! Highly recommended.
The hostess made us delicious barbecue sandwiches and was the epitome of traditional rural hospitality.
Clean and tidy and Elsa is an incredible hostess! Well equipped units, safe and well located. Spacious unit and would definitely stay here again on our way up North. Your place is an asset to the town. Farmers' breakfast available on request. Old world charm in the countryside!
Lovely cool, clean facilities. Delicious fried. Everything was just nice. Will definitely stay there again.
The beautiful Karoo cottage was wonderful. Our room was also beautiful and the dinner and breakfast were very well served.
Very neat room. Had a great night's rest.
She has to raise the prices of her jam by R10.00 per bottle. The service is great.
Missed a small kitchen, bathroom so big, can easily make a small kitchen there.
The guest house is beautifully clean and comfortable. We had a great meal and experienced excellent service.
Friendly, helpful hostess. Very neat and clean. Recommended for any traveler.
Well sanitised. Lovely host. Will book here again when going to Langebaan.
Had homemade food. The room was neat and clean. Unfortunately, noisy guests next door kept me awake until midnight.
Excellent stay over from Cape Town to Botswana.
I have never experienced such open hearted hospitality, nothing was too much trouble. I hope she reads this post, because I want to thank her for everything. That padkos was fantastic!
Beautiful, clean rooms.
Nice half way stop to Mossel Bay from Klerksdorp. Alsace is great, but the village is just sad.
Had a friendly and warm reception. Braai packages delicious bonus. Thank you very much for the great service.
Best decision to spend the night there, will do it again on my next trip. Friendly reception, room was tidy and dinner was excellent.
It's neat and more than enough for an overnight stop.
I enjoyed the overnight stay after a pleasant reception. Place is clean and tidy.
Good enough for a stopover on the way to the Cape.
Reception was real peasant hospitality. Will definitely use them again. Location is a bit of a problem, but safety of vehicles and people is put first.
Disappointing after reading a few reviews. No shower and a aircon pipe making a lot of noise. Never met the owner so I cannot comment. Asked for Wi-Fi code (still waiting). Overall neat and clean. Did not have breakfast there so I cannot comment.
We had a great time with our two dachshunds. Dinner was amazing and I would recommend Elsa's anytime. Thank you very much.
We will definitely stay at Elsa's@27 again. Dog friendly. It feels like staying with friends. Rooms are tastefully decorated. Very clean. Meal reflected Karoo hospitality. Thank you very much Elsa.
We had a lovely stay in Elsa's @ 27. The room was spacious and clean with a very good bed. Friendly personally hen had a nice breakfast the next morning.
Friendly reception. Nice private room and outdoor area.
The place is very clean and tidy and the people are very helpful and friendly.
Elsa received us kindly. Accommodation offers everything you need if you want to stay overnight or for a few days. Thanks, would be happy to recommend the place.
Friendly staff and the rooms were neat and clean. I can really recommend Elsa's@27.
The B&B was amazing with a real Karoo feeling all around you. The room was cozy with a private outside area to braai and relax. Breakfast was a highlight.
Elsa is a lovely person and always makes sure that the guests are at ease!
We stayed 2 nights at Elsa's, and were surprised at the quality of the dinners that were served to us. The salad, the chicken and cheese cake, the homemade bread. I can't get enough of the place and Elsa. Then I haven't even mentioned the jams of the county that are for sale there. It is also much cheaper than in Paternoster. The rooms and bathrooms are clean and comfortable, and it really was a place that I would recommend to anyone without hesitation.
Hospitable and friendly and helpful. Clean and tidy and not cramped. Would stay there again anytime.
Owner and staff service outstanding. Slept well!
Quiet, cozy with beautiful decor and high ceilings. Bathroom with shower and bath and a lock-up garage. We were there a little before check-in time, but were able to check in immediately. Would definitely recommend for any overnight stay in those regions!
Elsa goes out of her way to ensure that we were comfortably looked after.
Real Karoo hospitality
Very neat place with good facilities. Was cold and electric heating blanket was great. There was load shedding and some form of emergency power would have helped a lot. The kitchen could do well with gas stoves. The main street is very noisy because very heavy vehicles passing through it. However, Elsa @27 is slightly away from the main street and the noise didn't really bother us.
Everything was excellent, especially the food!!
Elsa goes out of her way for her guests. We had a good time and ate well. The BBQ packs (we didn't pre-book) were delicious and excellent value for money. We will no doubt include Elsa's at Britstown in our itinerary every time.
Feel free to use, very accommodating to any request. Great service.
Neat and clean room. We were kindly received. Guest house very safe and each room has a private meeting and braai area. Would recommend Elsa's.
Elsa is very helpful and friendly.
We used Elsa's again on our return home. It was once again great service! Comfortable and tidy overnight accommodation. The owner is very hospitable. Feels like a five star hotel.
We enjoyed it very much and it was well equipped. The room and bathroom are modern, clean and tidy with a real Karoo feel. Nice coffee and biscuits. Secure parking. Very hospitable people, we definitely recommend Elsas @ 27 for an overnight stay!
My son (student) and I remained. There is so much fantastic stuff. The cleanliness of the unit, the lock-up garage, the fantastic plate of food and very friendly service I recommend to everyone.
Really put a lot of effort into making it comfortable for you. Will definitely stay there again.
Hostess waited for us and the Covid protocol was 100%. No. 2 was a lovely spotless room and fruit juice in the fridge. Quiet night with no noise or rumble of heavy vehicles audible. Lock up garage for further peace of mind and breakfast just like a farm kitchen would. The guava jam was a bonus. Definitely this place to spend the night, on the way somewhere.
We also ate there and food was great. Would love to stay there again.
Will stay there again. Definitely recommend it.
My dog was welcome, there is a small yard for her and the rooms are very nice and tidy.
Good service, clean and neat.
The meals are exceptionally good. Can definitely recommend Elsa's.
Excellent beds and sleeping facilities, very good service. Very neat.
The room was beautifully clean, the extras like enough coffee, sugar, milk and even biscuits were a pleasant surprise. The hostess goes out of her way to be helpful and makes you feel at home. A deliciously prepared breakfast from the kitchen was just what was needed to start the journey for the day. Would confidently recommend Elsa's @ 27.
It was lovely to spend the night there. Very neat. Helpful and friendly. Everything you could possibly need was there. Biscuits were bonus. Just missed my feather pillow.
Feel free to use the place.
Lovely clean accommodation with quality beds, and delicious dinner. The staff were super helpful and very very friendly. Would recommend the place anytime.
Very secure parking.
Elsa and the staff was wonderful.
Nice quiet place, ideal for sleepover.
Elsa could not do enough to make our visit unforgettable. Absolutely everything has been thought of. We had a wonderful stay!
Absolutely wonderful again.
Elsa received us hospitably and even offered us a delicious dinner. Rooms are very neat. The guest house is very safe and easy to find. Worth it.
We were surprised by the personal attention and kindness. Furthermore, the residential units were clean and tidy. The breakfast was delicious but just too much. Will definitely stop there again.
Staying here is like staying with close friends or family. Elsa makes you feel at home immediately. Breakfast is just the right start for the next stage of one's journey.
Room is very neat and decor beautiful. We had a great time relaxing with our dogs after a long journey. Thank you for your help, directions and kindness.
Paulina received us warmly and Elsa went out of her way, helping with our mechanical problem. Braai packs, wood, salads and even secure parking were provided for our motorcycles. Feel free to stay at Elsa's @ 27.
Wonderful stay after a long day on the road.
Dit was baie lekker rustig gewees ons het lekker gerus en ontspan.
As always a pleasure to stay there.
Was very nice, will recommend it.
Very neat and friendly people.
Was received like royalty after a 13 hour journey by car. A real diamond in the Karoo. Elsa is a wonderful hostess.
We slept 1 night in a family room for 5. Room a good size, clean, tidy and the bathroom is spacious. The bathtub was a bonus.
It was nice to stay there. Neat and friendly people who helped us.
Beautiful place, very tidy, lovely bed and new pillows. Beautiful bathroom and delicious meals.
Tasteful neat place, Karoo hospitality and friendly people, quiet and peaceful, delicious breakfast, delicious dining experience at Transkaroo Country Lodge - will stay again.
The place was neat, clean, fully equipped and everything in its place. Even our dogs felt at home. No complaints, just nice words for Elsa and her staff. Thanks so much Elsa. We'll see you again.
Was very nice to stay there with my dogs, and it was conveniently enclosed for the dogs. You won't find a cleaner and tidier place.
Friendly and helpful hostess. Accommodation is very neat and well looked after.
Elsa is very friendly. We felt at home immediately. Very convenient location for an overnight stay.
It was truly a wonderful experience after the long road. Thank you for everything that was perfect and we could just relax and sleep great!
Would stay there again anytime.
Lovely accommodation, hospitality to enjoy. Delicious food, warm bed. Enjoyed our stay a lot.
Elsa is a wonderful hostess, very helpful and friendly. Ideal for what we needed, a warm bed on the way back to the Cape.
We had a great stay! So beautiful and so very friendly! Fantastic!
Elsa is the friendliest person we ever met.
We had a wonderful stay at Elsa's place and would like to stay there again in the future, very helpful and definitely recommend them, unfortunately we couldn't stay for breakfast, but the stay was pleasant.
It was very pleasant and enjoyable for us to overnight at Elsa's 27. Will definitely stop there again. Very friendly service in the beautiful Klein Karoo.
The accommodation is in a side street in a peaceful town. Neat unit with all the necessities. Safe covered parking. Coffee, tea, sugar, milk and rusks are appreciated.
Very pleasant stay with very pleasant hostesses. The rooms are very nice, clean and well appointed. The quilt blanket on the bed is very nice.
This is the second time my son has stayed here on his way north - after the first time, they didn't even want to try another place. And they still feel the same - if they need to sleep over, there's only one place in Britstown: Elsa's @27. It's clean, tidy, well equipped, people are hospitable and accommodating.
The owner, Elsa, and all the staff very friendly, helpful and professional. Place is spotless and very well furnished. Breakfast was delicious! Will definitely stay here again in the future.
A wonderful place to spend the night. Elsa's friendliness is really appreciated.
Hospitable reception. Rooms neat. Everything you need and very safe. Worth it.
Elsa goes the extra mile to make sure our stay is unforgettable.
Lots of attention to little details that makes the accommodation so much better.
Thank you Elsa, you are a beautiful person. Had a great time. Thank you very much for the pasella bacon plants, wood and blitz. Your place is very neat!
Rooms well equipped, neat and clean.
Great accommodation to relax after a long day on the road. Elsa took care of nice barbecue packages for the evening and delicious salads. Everything was carefully prepared for us. Five star accommodation!
We had a comfortable stay in a neat room. Elsa made delicious food at a very good price and we felt very welcome.
Would recommend Elsa's @27 for overnight stay. Friendly reception, clean and tidy with air conditioning and a comfortable bed for a great night's rest.
The place was neat, clean and fully equipped. No complaints about the place itself. The only problem there was constant noise from the compressor from the gas station next door which disturbed sitting outside at night and also when sleeping at night.
The room and facilities in the room are neat and the linen of high quality. Room is well equipped with air conditioner and electric blanket. Unfortunately, the owners' dog got out of their yard and the very excited puppy slipped into our room. We overlooked it, but there are other travelers who may not be so forgiving. Elsa is very friendly though!
Great location. Very friendly, Elsa went out of her way to help us and make our stay comfortable and easy. Thank you!
The facilities are excellent with very friendly service, highly recommended.
Beautiful place with everything you need. Friendly service.
After a long trek from Gauteng this was a real oasis thanks to Elsa and her friendly staff. The accommodation was comfortable and just what was needed for a good rest. Cleanliness was at a premium. Well done.
The house is next to a garage that borders the main road and the noise at the petrol station and the compressor that switches on during the night can be quite disturbing to light sleepers. It didn't bother me but for my wife. Facilities are neat, clean and comfortable.
Very friendly and helpful.
Service is good, good safety. Location isn't good. My car was in the garage, the facilities in the room was good. Everything was in working condition and everything you needed, was in the room.
Spotlessly clean room. Breakfast very good and service very friendly.
It was a pleasure to meet Elsa, hostess. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome and even provided cutlery for our unplanned barbecue. The only problem was the noise of the compressor from the gas station next door which slightly disturbed the night's rest. Otherwise, extremely neat and precise and excellent value for money.
The Elsa and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and tidy. The breakfast was also delicious. Good value for money.
Nice stay. Noise from the business at the rear air conditioner.
It's perfectly located, clean, comfortable with a very pleasant, friendly hostess. The food was delicious.
Elsa was so friendly and we felt completely safe and at home there. Kids had a wonderful time and loved playing with your animals. Thank you so much.
Stayed wonderfully in a beautiful room. Tastefully furnished with everything needed. Elsa is friendly and helpful, and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast.
Friendly host who made us feel at home and welcome immediately. Clean and neat rooms. Would make use of the guesthouse anytime again when needed.
Was received so hospitable and friendly. Deliciously indulged in Elsa's delicious mutton chops and side dishes. Slept wonderfully warm.
See stars.
We were traveling to the flowers in the Northern Cape, so here we only spent the night and enjoyed it very much.
Elsa's@27 is a very neat place to spend the night, it's very clean and tidy and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Would recommend to any person.
Accommodation at Elsa's was a very nice experience. Highly recommended to all and will go back.
Clean, convenient, safe, very friendly, helpful, farmer people. Felt very at home. Overnight on our wat to Kgalagadi Park. Thank you for allowing us to use the garage for bakkie and trailer. Appreciate it a lot.
Elsa went out of her way to make one feel welcome. Just like family!
The friendliness and hospitality with which one is received is commendable. Don't want to say like family, because that can sometimes be cross, but like rural hospitality can be. The food and accommodation are top notch.
It was 'n quick stay-over. The room is very pretty and the decor is very creative. She was very accommodating of our dogs. There area gates and we felt safe.
The accommodation and hospitality were great after a long day on the road! Would recommend to anyone!
It was incredibly nice to stay there. The place is so peaceful and extremely clean and tidy! And the place is beautiful with its old furniture. Pleasing to the eye. Will definitely stay there again if we go to Limpopo. Elsa is one of the sweetest people I have ever met, so kind and helpful.
Clean and tidy, the beds were top notch, the old building shows a lot of character. The old fireplace and the wooden floors dating back to the old days.
Friendly reception at a very neat guest house. Will definitely stay there again! Information sheet about everything needed and more, e.g. small red hawk that occurs in the area is great.
Wonderful hospitality from Elsa and staff. Comfortable and neat facilities. Secure covered parking. Nicely located.
We felt at home. The service was homely and personal.
My girlfriend couldn't get enough of the room. The warmth of Elsa definitely drove away the cold. Her husband made sure I was on time for an unofficial date. You guys are tops.
We got delicious side dishes for our barbecue. Als was ready upon our arrival.
Delicious and comfortable accommodation in neat, well-equipped rooms. Unbeatable country hospitality. Will definitely stay here again if we pass through here.
Everyone at Elsa@27 received us warmly and made us feel very welcome. The room and facilities were very neat, would recommend anyone to spend the night there.
I needed a place to stay for my road trip from Cape Town to Johannesburg and Britstown was about halfway, so I looked for and found Elsa's as a convenient place to stay. Elsa welcomed me personally and gave me room no. 1, which was a huge room with 4 beds and a large bathroom with shower. I enjoyed my brief stay for 1 night and was given a delicious breakfast in the morning.
Good and friendly service. Very neat and the space was fantastic. Liked the bath and shower in one bathroom, seeing that each of us could use our own choice. Location is also good.
Everything was great. Thank you.
We were made to feel right at home. Our room was clean and comfortable with all that we could possibly need. A good place to stop over.
Very clean and tidy accommodation. Safe parking near room and friendly reception.
Host very friendly and helpful.
On the whole we were very satisfied. We were a little surprised to be charged extra for breakfast but at least it was very reasonable. We would stay at Elsa's again if the occasion arose.
Very clean and neat.
The room was clean, it's safe and it's quiet. I can recommend this guesthouse.
Friendly reception. Calm atmosphere. Ideal overnight stay.
The goal of getting a good rest after a long ride was achieved without any complaints. Would easily stay there again!
The accommodation was very clean and tidy. I think a shower must be placed in unit to help with water saving.
It was good, but it was dusty just for advice, the owner can just get some thing for the bottom of the doors to prevent dust from getting in or most of it. But still it was good and the breakfast was also good. And thanks to you LekkerSlaap team.
Was a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere, hostess and staff very friendly.
The electric blanket and biscuits were nice. The bathroom is below standard - bathtub needs to be replaced and taps loose and turn in all directions. Room has been treated with too much detergent/air freshener causing chest irritation. Garage next door makes noise all night.
Very pleasant people. We were immediately made to feel comfortable, we were offered dinner and it too was top notch. The room was very tidy with everything we needed for a good night's rest. Great service and accommodation. We will stay there again should the opportunity present itself in the future.
Five stars for the tasteful accommodation, the friendly staff, the owners, Elsa and Willie, who went absolutely out of their way to assist us with our trailer problems, a fantastic barbecue package for the evening and a delicious breakfast with several options to choose from to choose and fit your wallet. Elsa@27 is a guest house that offers you the comfort, convenience and homely warmth as if at your own home! Will always want to stay there!
Very hospitable and friendly, neat and clean. 100%
Full of courage we hit the road to the Cape, it's a long way. We arrive at our destination for the evening and are so surprised with the beautiful rooms and how comfortable they are. Everyone is so hospitable and the food is delicious. I would recommend Elsa's to anyone and will stay overnight in Britstown again on my next "road trip".
Amazing customer service. Neat spacious rooms. Delicious food. Owner went out of her way to make it comfortable for us! Would recommend Elsa's to anyone with peace of mind.
We only arrived at Elsa's place late in the evening and they went out of their way to accommodate our late arrival which was much appreciated after a long journey from Johannesburg.
Thank you very much for a nice sleepover! We and our wofies had a good rest.
Warm, literally it was very cold and Elsa had the heating on in the room as well as her welcome was warm and cordial not to mention the staff on Monday morning who served a delicious breakfast with a conversation so typical of the Karoo's warmth and warmth. 6 star treatment.
We got a warm welcome from Elsa despite not arriving until 21:00. Her place is very tastefully furnished and there was everything that made our overnight stay a wonderful experience: air conditioning and electric blanket already switched on, coffee, tea, biscuits for the early risers, beautiful bathroom. In short: everything was perfect and we would definitely stay at Elsa's@27 again and can confidently recommend it to any traveller.

Very nice stay. Everything was clean and neat and beds very comfortable.
Was very nice. Stayed there for 2 nights. Feels like your own home.
Wonderful place to stay. Provision of meals were excellent. Thanks a lot.
Rooms were spacious and neat. Warm reception, Elsa and her husband braai'd some meat for us that evening and breakfast was excellent. Will stay there again if we're in the area in the future.
We had such a great stay and such delicious meals that my 5 year old daughter just wants to know when we're going to visit Tannie Elsa again!
Karoo hospitality, we experienced the real thing. I really appreciate being able to stay at places like this.
We were tired after travelling and Elsa's sincere smile and hug to welcome us made us feel so much better. She phoned me during the day to arrange for dinner and it was a feast! It was no trouble for her to make us sandwiches for the road. And their breakfast was the best one we'd had the entire holiday. Thank you, Elsa!
Friendly reception and very comfortable and neat accommodation.
See the stars.
Elsa's is ideally situated, safe and well-equipped. The room was big enough, clean, neat and private, ideal for a stopover for a night or 2. Breakfast was delicious, the best sausage ever. The staff were friendly, hospitable and helpful. I recommend this guest house.
Recommend it to anyone. Mouth-watering waste dinner, can recommend it.
The owner was friendly and made us feel welcome.
Very clean, friendly reception. Delicious dinner.
We were very warmly welcomed and felt so at home. We will definitely stay here again.
See stars.
All good and was nice to stay here. Keep it up!
Neat, slept well - no rest disturbance. Older people look for a place to hold onto in the shower.
We were warmly welcomed and taken to our room. Conversation about Britstown and the surrounding area was very interesting and an alternative route through the Northern Cape was described which promptly made us decide to follow it.
Good food and fairly priced. Don't know of any activities in Britstown.
Very quaint accommodation with character. Ideal overnight, especially for larger families.
See stars.
Had a very pleasant time. People are hospitable. Accommodation is very clean with soft towels. Went to a lot of trouble with our requests.
Britstown doesn't have lots of options. We had dinner at the hotel in town and it was way overpriced. Elsa's is a much better option for dinner.
See the stars.
Stayed here last year too. Rooms neat and clean and everything works. Braai in the evening is delicious as well as salads and fresh chops! Breakfast just right. Elsa's is definitely value for money and the service is personal and great.
Friendly reception. Very homey place with clean linen. Spacious, clean room and bathroom. Got some good sleep but the mosquitoes were a nuisance.
We had a very friendly welcome from Elsa and had a very relaxing overnight stay. We ordered the braaipack for our evening meal and it was very nice and good value for money. We won't hesitate to stay there again.
We experienced car problems on the way to Britstown, which meant that we would not arrive until late in the evening. It had been no problem for Elsa and we were in mobile connection. We had a great time staying in the room and the room had everything you look forward to after a long day on the road: a bath, a bed and good coffee! Thank you very much for the effort, Elsa.
The hospitality, smile and kindness with which Elsa received us speaks volumes of her dedication and passion. After a long day on the road, taking some time off in this "home" was so refreshing. Elsa's@27 is decorated with detail and Karoo stylishness that bids everyone welcome! No pains were spared to make our Karoo braai an unforgettable experience. The breakfast, served by friendly staff, was so lovely. On our journeys between the north and the south we'd love to relax at Elsa's@27 in Bristown again!
We can highly recommend Elsa's @ 27. Elsa and her staff absolutely beam with true Karoo friendliness which makes you feel at home. Dinner (braai packs and salad) was awesome! My 2 Maltese girls were welcome and our room had its own fence, ideal for our 2 doggies, and made me feel so at ease. Elsa and staff, big thank you for all the friendliness, lovely dinner and a very neat and clean room. Keep it up! Will definitely stay with you again at the end of the year!
They provide you with everything you need and they don't skim over the finer details. Elsa's love, warmth and caring approach is really unique. She went out of her way to make my sister and me feel safe. Dinner and breakfast was divine! Excellent overnight spot, just wish we could have stayed longer. Thanks Elsa and staff. Outstanding service, thanks!
Hospitality and warmth go hand in hand at Elsa's: the best venue I have stayed at, worldwide, for many a year. Elsa provides service that would win her an Olympic Gold Medal anytime. She provided the most outstanding evening meal and wonderful service - and then sent me on my way with true Karoo kindness and care. The room itself was beautifully clean. In fact, everything was beyond perfect. If you, dear reader, are looking for a place to stay, look no further. Elsa's will surprise and please you, truly an oasis in the beautiful Karoo.
We had such a nice time, top notch!
This is truly a bright spot in a small place like Britstown!
We were welcomed so warmly after a long day of driving. Elsa wasn't there, but here ladies welcomed us with open arms. The room was beautiful and convenient and it had all the amenities we needed and more. We booked breakfast that night for the following morning and it was surely the BEST farmstyle breakfast we have ever had. Thank you to Elsa and their team for all the trouble and for the warm hospitality we were treated to. It was absolutely fantastic!
Very friendly and professional reception, neat and clean rooms, very nice dinner. Would definitely recommend!
We received a warm welcome from Elsa. The accommodation was neat and beds were sufficient. Delicious dinner and very cosy. Highly recommended for overnight stay.
Lovely time, thanks Elsa, you're a terrific hostess!
The room was very convenient and had a bath as well as a shower. Nice veranda for those who want to sit in the sun. Elsa was wonderfully helpful and full of information. She even prepared special dishes for breakfast to suit our diet. You park your car safely behind a gate. I will definitely recommend it!
I can only speak highly of the guest house. The hostess went out of her way to make us feel at home and give us food, even though we didn't book for it. Rooms are spacious and smell delicious, best quality linen and accessories. It really is a piece of gold in the Karoo, can highly recommend her and would stay there again anytime. Will even take a detour to sleep over there. Staff, so friendly and helpful and just want to spoil - 10/10!
We had a very pleasant overnight stay. Elsa is very friendly and hospitable and goes out of her way to do something for you. I would recommend this place with great confidence.
Elsa is very hospitable, she makes you feel right at home. The bedrooms are spacious, tidy and the braai packs are a winner. Would definitely recommend anyone to stay here. I will definitely stay at Elsa's place again, in fact, we will stay there in the future when we drive to the Cape. Elsa makes you feel so comfortable, it feels like your home away from home.
We have never regretted staying at Elsa's @ 27. Elsa's sparkling kindness and hospitality speak volumes of the person she is, and also of what you can expect at her guest house - peace, tranquility and contentment in every way. Everything was neat, clean and in its place. We marveled at everything we could observe in the guest house. Elsa's dinners and homemade jam are something to write home about! We recommend Elsa's with confidence. Thank you, Elsa! It was a special privilege for us to meet you. Thank you for your hospitality and kindness, as well as the good service. Thanks also to Miena (loveliness in itself) and everyone involved in the guest house. May God bless and protect you!
From Elsa's first text, we could tell she had a sense of humor. We were welcomed personally and felt very welcome, the room was very neat and clean and tastefully furnished. The barbecue and the next day's breakfast were very tasty and value for money. We are personally dispensed with. I will drive over Britstown to Cape Town again in the future just to spend the night there again. Take that Elsa.
Elsa is a hostess one thousand. She and her husband went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Elsa's @ 27 is a house like my own, just nice!
I wouldn't want to stay at any other guest house. It is very well located and the rooms are very neat and well furnished. Elsa is very friendly and goes out of her way to make you feel at home and makes an effort with her meals. Thank you very much Elsa for making our trip so pleasant and for your kindness. Your place is beautiful.
We slept over with a small baby, Elsa personally made sure we were comfortable, boiled water for baby bottles, kitchen for washing bottles etc! She also quickly put together a fantastic dinner for us for a very reasonable price! Breakfast was lovely and she just packed food for us too! homemade bread with homemade jam was breathtakingly delicious! Also jam bought there! Her maids are awfully cute! Everything we needed and more! Incredible decor in the places too! Had good air conditioning and beds sleep well! Room was more than spacious enough for baby's cot too! Thank goodness we came across Elsa's!
Elsa immediately made us feel at home, the braai packages are a winner. Would definitely recommend to anyone. East is a home away from home.
Outstanding. Would recommend it to any person.
See the stars.
It was very nice. Very clean and tidy and very friendly service. It was so nice. Thank you very much.
Elsa's friendly personal attention to and execution of each guest's needs in the rooms is unbeatable. One is received personally and seen off. She is interested in each guest's circumstances and personally ensures that your requests are carried out. She also makes your food for meals the way you want it!
We stayed at Elsa's on the evening of 31 Dec '15. She received us very kindly, and stood up with a braai pack, salad, freshly baked bread and delicious jams. The table on the stoep was very nicely set and we enjoyed a delicious braai for New Year's Eve! The accommodation is very tastefully furnished and enough space to move around. And the bed slept very well! Elsa's kindness made us feel very much at home and we will certainly stay there again in the future!
The hostess really was a good hostess, and invited us as a bonus to experience Manuel Escorsio and partner, who performed in the old church in Britstown. Die only problem we experienced was the shower, it's either boiling hot or freezing cold, the tap settings are really not easy to correct.
I highly recommend the guest house.
Elsa went to so much trouble for us. We left a jacket there and she went out of her way to return it and have it delivered to our home, from Britstown to Windhoek, Namibia. Elsa, you are a five star person who would go the extra mile for everyone. We appreciate your effort, but also your lovely accommodation. Everything was neat, clean and up to standard. May your accommodation flourish, because your good service is definitely noticed!
We will stay at Elsa's again if we drive by.
Elsa asked if we would like dinner with our stay and when we arrived she had prepared a feast fit for a king. Because we had to leave early again, she even helped pack us provisions for breakfast. On our way inland we had a lovely braai in front of our room door and enjoyed the Karoo sunset. The guesthouse is very beautiful, neat and comfortable. The hostess makes the whole experience very special. I don't think I've ever experienced such hospitality. It feels as if we've known her for years after just two nights! We will definitely stay there again on our way back to Cape Town.
Our spacious room was beautifully clean and comfortable. Dinner's gemsbok fillet was fantastic - tender and juicy! Breakfast was nice and spacious. Elsa made us feel very much at home. We will definitely stay there again.
Very nice clean and tidy units. Elsa welcomes you as an old acquaintance. Mina's bread is unbeatable. The dinner and breakfast were of good quality. I would stay with Elsa again anytime and definitely recommend it.
We recommend Elsa's @ 27 to all our family and friends. Elsa is a very exceptional hostess and we immediately fell in love with her. We were also spoiled on arrival with a plate full of the most delicious mutton pies which she made for her church function. The sleeping facilities are stylish, comfortably equipped and very neat. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast and had some solid conversation with Elsa regarding the area and farming activities. Our stay there was one of the highlights of our Cape holiday!
Was very nice, nice and clean. The dinner was very special.
Comfortable, spacious, well maintained and tastefully furnished accommodation. Excellent food and a friendly hostess.
Highly recommended. Amazing client service if you have to travel through Brits and you have to stay overnight. Really 6 star service. Thank you for the great service.
Thank you for helping us on such short notice with an extra place to sleep Elsa! The braai was delicious. You are a fantastic human being.
Everything above our expectations. Manager and hostess very hospitable and makes you feel at home. Will return.
So easy to recommend.
It was nice to sleep over at Elsa's - the accommodation was good and the food very tasty.
Full of mosquitos (about 30) both times we stayed there. She was aware of the mosquito problem, yet we had to spray when we arrived and had to sleep with the smell of Doom. The second time we stayed there, she also did not spray the rooms before we arrived - we had to spray. No hot water on the morning that we left (could not shower). There was a loud generator noise next door both nights that we stayed there.
Recommended.
No complaints. Elsa will only have to look after the rooms' hot water: when you've driven far, you don't feel like manipulating taps that don't work properly. Furthermore, everything was very convenient and we will stay there again.
Elsa and her family welcomes you with open arms. You get amazing personalised service, food out of this world prepared especially for you, a great ambiance and cool refreshing rooms. We will be back. Thank you for everything Elsa.
Food, bedding and hospitality are top notch. We had such a nice stay that we just booked for the return trip. Would highly recommend Elsa's.
Made very welcome at Elsa's, a well placed guesthouse, and enjoyed an excellent, peaceful overnight stop. I must recommend that you eat in at Elsa's. The meals are excellent in quality and value, like being looked after by your mum or your favourite auntie... If you are routing through Britstown don't miss Elsa's, a great guesthouse.
Great place to stay overnight on the way between Gauteng and the Cape.
What an unforgettable experience at Elsa's @ 27, outstanding service and hospitality. Elsa really made us feel at home and comfortable. The accommodation is very neat, breakfast delicious, absolute value for money. The exceptional hospitality upon arrival and departure makes one feel comfortable and at home. Definitely a great recommendation for any traveler.
We were warmly received. The place is comfortable with everything you need for an overnight stay. The unit is tastefully furnished and is a lovely place to spend the night. The hostess is warm and makes you feel at home immediately. Delicious breakfast and company before you set off again on the long road.
Elsa deserves to achieve great success in the hospitality industry. You feel like adjusting your travel plan to spend the night there! She defines the term "hospitality" and each of her employees is hand trained.
It was our privilege to stay at Elsa's home and enjoy delicious home-made food. Her and Minha's mutton curry is top notch and highly recommended. The accommodation was excellent. Clean, tidy, safe and comfortably equipped with everything you need after the long road. With an excellent cook like Minha and a wonderful hostess like Elsa, you can't go wrong. And if we come to stay again it is especially for two reasons. 1. Elsa, for her lovely company and then of course 2. The delicious mutton curry, and breakfasts.
Elsa is someone who pays attention to the smallest detail. She called early in the morning and asked about meals, etc. Appreciated it very much. We were received very kindly and immediately felt at home. Our room was very tidy, air-conditioned and very good value for money. Also ate very well, while Elsa came to talk to find out more about us. Next time I want to try the reported curry chops as we will definitely be staying there again.
Neat place to sleep and delicious food, what more could you want?
The rooms are very clean and tidy with everything you need. It was a pleasure to sleep over there.
Nothing is too much trouble for her and she goes out of her way to make her guests comfortable. She also believes in reuse, recycle. Breakfast is a feast. I would highly recommend.
The accommodation was very comfortable to spend the night and was further improved by the friendly reception, cozy atmosphere and delicious dinner as well as breakfast.
Nice dinner and breakfast. We had a very nice stay. It's a good town to split a long journey into two shifts.
Will definitely stay there again. We had a great time relaxing and staying. Can definitely recommend Elsa's.
