61 guests' feedbackOur stay was just great, the staff was friendly and welcoming.
The visitors were helped with accommodation at the accommodation after hours (very late in the evening) and you were very helpful that late at night. Our visitors were very satisfied with the service and we will certainly use your services again in the future. Thank you very much for great service even though it was so late. Thank you very much.
It was warm, comfortable, safe, and luxurious.
Valerie is a very good hostess and helped us where she could. It was quite a cold 2 nights in Ficksburg and the warm blankets helped a lot. The room has everything we needed.
See stars.
Baie lekker; I enjoyed every bit of the stay. We were even allowed to check out an hour later than the normal checkout time.
Yes, Michael was pleasant and helpful.
Nice warm beds and very clean.
It was great to be able to sleep there with the fact that they have provisions for load shedding.
Awesome place. Thank you so much for your effort.
The owner is friendly and very helpful. Everything was ready and in place. They were within reach if one needed them.
Very nice place with nice people.
Very nice place. I enjoyed my night after a long drive from Mpumalanga.
We were received very kindly. Very neat and clean. Everything we needed.
It was like home away from home. Valerie received us warmly and was very much helpful throughout our stay.
Valerie, would like to give you private feedback about your accommodation, and not publicly: As said, the beds are wobbly. Bathroom needs 100% upgrade - sinks, tiles, walls, etc. Unhygienic shower curtain. No mirror at sink for shaving. Your service is very good. Good Wi-Fi. Safe.
Friendly accommodating hosts. Clean and good value for money.
A lot of effort to make you feel welcome.
Nice people, stay was pleasant.
The beauty and tranquility of our country's smaller towns. Where the people are so hospitable, go out of their way to help (without expecting anything in return). We had to have a tire replaced. Our host helped without hesitation! Yet such a pity our country's bad roads may keep the tourists out of these smaller towns. However, we had a great time. Can confidently recommend Gewel Gastehuis.
Clean, good communication. No frills.
Gable house offers basic accommodation, is neat and clean. Friendly host and hostess. Luxury bedding. The neighbors' dogs that bark all night detract from a good stay.
It was sad that the decision was made to prevent the festival from taking place in the town. For this reason the accommodation was expensive. Poor location. No communication and interaction except at arrival time. Coffee facilities were pleasant, only little milk available. Otherwise it was nice. Just expensive for what you get. Owners friendly. Would recommend that shower floors are scrubbed and disinfected. Also only had hot water once.
Friendly reception, place is very clean and tidy. Very well located in Ficksburg. The people are very friendly and help with everything. Will definitely visit again.
The bar is in need of a serious upgrade and there needs to be a maintenance person on hand at any given time. Had a problem with the TV in Room 7 and the Creepy Crawly was not working in the pool. A facility of that size cannot rely on one person to do cooking, cleaning, reception and customer care rounds. Somethings will fall through the cracks. Eunice tried her best, but it was just too much for her on her own. This seemed like exploitation of the staff member.
The hostess went out of her way to make sure we were happy. Unit is neat and clean. Will definitely stay here again.
The place is very safe and your vehicle is inside the yard behind a gate. The host is very friendly and made sure everything was neat and comfortable. The room I stayed in had comfortable beds, so I could sleep well. It's a beautiful place they have. One also feels comfortable in the house and not as if one should just stay in the room. Thanks for everything.
This guest house runs like syrup. We want to say a big thank you to Valerie and her husband not only for your wonderful hospitality, but also for the wonderful food and service we received when we stayed with you. Centrally located with safe parking, we showered in room 6, slept peacefully and after a delicious breakfast we were ready to start the cherry festival. Whether it's for work or pleasure, be sure to make your reservation at the Gewel Gastehuis.
The room and bathroom are spacious and well furnished. It met my needs for the night.
They will have to have the adjustments of their gas geyser or the type of geyser checked. The shower is either ice cold or blazing hot. Impossible to get constant temperature. Presumably the model geyser may not be suitable for low water pressure from a borehole. Otherwise pleasant stay.
The guest house's facilities were promising, but our room was disappointing. The bed sagged in the middle, the shower mixer didn't work and the hot water was lukewarm. They put out single-ply toilet paper and the WiFi couldn't connect at all. I accidentally left a pair of shoes there and after two weeks still haven't received a call asking if they can do anything about it. No, stop.
What a great weekend. We were welcomed with open arms and Valerie and Johan were excellent, friendly hosts. The room was spacious, neat and clean. The pool was refreshing on a hot weekend and breakfast simply the best. They could consider adding a fan in the rooms, especially during the worst heat, but nonetheless we'd love to visit again!
The Gewel Guesthouse is very neat, very safe and very affordable. It has everything you need. I will recommend it to anyone with a limited budget.
Nice and safe guest house, with friendly service and a nice big breakfast. Thank you Valerie for the nice time with you.
We had a lovely stay there. Owners received us very hospitably and went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Room was well equipped. Especially the heater and electric blanket helped a lot. Breakfast was also delicious.
Extremely friendly hosts. Made a lot of effort to make our stay very pleasant.
We had a nice stay. Just struggling with the TV remote. The owners were more than willing to ensure good service.
We enjoyed our stay and feel we got more than just value for our money. The service was excellent.
The guesthouse was easy to find. The guest husband and wife were friendly, helpful and always available! We really enjoyed it, everything was neat and clean and the owners made sure we were okay every now and then. The food was very tasty and more than enough. All we found lacking there was a fan in the room and toilet spray in the bathroom. Furthermore, we have no complaints.
Everything very nice and clean and meets all your wishes. Garden and pool very neat and pleasant to relax there. Very friendly management and delicious breakfast. Can book there with peace of mind.
Gewel Gastehuis with Non as hostess was excellent and the breakfast very special. Everything in and around the house beautiful. Had a great time relaxing in the lovely pool. The rooms are great. Would recommend the place to everyone. Thank you very, very much!
"Wow" - looking for friendly reception and service, then you hardly have to look any further. Non made us feel at home immediately. The guest house as a whole is neat. The breakfast was top notch. Already stayed there a second time and had the same experience as the first time. Would definitely recommend it anytime.
For an overnight stop it's perfect!
Pleasant place to stay....good self-catering...everything tidy....quietly situated.
We had a nice stay at Gewel Guesthouse. Delicious breakfast. Neat rooms and great hospitality. Highly recommended for visits to Ficksburg!
It was very neat, the customer service was great, the breakfast was delicious. Definitely value for money.
Friendly reception and excellent swimming pool, braai and relaxation area.
It was very nice. Non Ferreira was very friendly and her hospitality and humanity was great. We slept nice and warm and were served with delicious meals. Highly recommended. Will definitely be back in the future.
Thank you, Non, for your hospitality and friendliness. We had a lovely stay. The dinner and breakfast on was excellent.
The customer service was splendid as the host kept in touch until we arrived at the venue and understood the inclimate weather conditions that delayed our expected time of arrival. Surprisingly gave a birthday breakfast to my fiancé, which made our stay even more welcomed. Mrs Ferreira really made our stay so comfortable for the young couple we are. We definitely would use her services again. Thanks a lot to Travelground to have a client like her.
Non does everything to make you feel at home and it is equipped with everything you need.
Made a lot of effort for us.
Thank you very much for a peaceful, beautiful and friendly stay.
From the reception on Monday afternoon until our departure on Tuesday morning, we were taken care of by Non Ferreria our hostess. The Gewel Guest House is beautiful, spacious and provided a peaceful atmosphere for our overnight stay in Ficksburg. We were greeted with a fantastic breakfast in the morning before we left for East London. With the hospitality, cleanliness and comfort that we experienced, Die Gewel guest house is always recommendable. Thank you very much for a wonderful stay.
Non is an excellent hostess. The breakfast was very good. The stay very comfortable. Ten out of ten for Gewel Gastehuis.
Hospitable staff, friendly service, good breakfast and spacious room.
Very nice stay and will really recommend to my friends.
Had a very pleasant stay. Bathroom a bit small and not very clean. That's quite a big disadvantage.
Very neat and hospitable. Room very comfortable and cuddly warm, excellent beds and pillows! Dining room nicely heated with Aga stove. TV/Reception very cozy with log fire. Convenient with WiFi.
Extra heaters would have been nice for the winter!
