90 guests' feedbackThe accommodation was top notch. We had a wonderful stay and the guest house is breathtaking. It was lovely, thank you very much and thank you for all your hospitality. We will definitely visit you again and recommend to anyone.
Beautiful place, very neat and safe.
It was a peaceful visit.
Was a beautiful place and the owner was so thoughtful and friendly.
The rooms, grounds and garden are so luxurious! It was like a fairytale, will definitely stay here again.
Great stay, only the town experienced power outages for a large portion of the stay, which was not communicated in advance as a possible hindrance.
We had a wonderful stay. Thank you very much.
Lovely comfortable and clean accommodation and close to shops and restaurants.
Very nice, everything was great.
Very cute place, just needs a little updating or maintenance. Back-up power would be great, just at least for a plug or light to work.
I will let my friends know simply for the quietness of the place. Not friendly check-in. The website says you can pay R100 for breakfast, but that was a no-no. The pool was dirty and slippery. The bedding was not clean. On my bed, there were stains like coffee stains, which was really disgusting. No one was available to answer the guests' questions. I don't like the corner unit with glass around the bath, yet the doors are open.
Had a nice stay, the bathroom is inadequately equipped, the chairs to sit and watch TV very uncomfortable. And also a water shortage.
Some of the best I have visited in the country.
Very nice place to stay, great location etc.
Very quiet area. We could relax.
Our weekend in Paris was particularly pleasant and we really enjoyed our stay at Hidden Grace. Zelna was very helpful and made us feel very much at home, their hospitality and care made our weekend absolutely worth it, it was our second visit to Hidden Grace and we can definitely recommend the guest house.
We had no water and when we reported it we were only told that everything was working and there was water. There was no water running when you turned on the hot tap, and with cold water almost nothing.
No, it's not worth it. Photos are misleading, the place is run down and no provision has been made for loadshedding. So no coffee, no wifi, no TV. No water in shower. Water in bath is only a thin trickle and ends up all outside the bath and nothing inside.
I sincerely regret that this review doesn't reflect a positive experience, and I offer my apologies. I hope that the management of Hidden Grace can use this feedback as an opportunity for growth and improvement in the future. When we initially booked this guesthouse, we were drawn by its impressive 4+ star rating on Lekke Slaap. Our purpose was to accommodate the entire Bridal Party the night before a wedding at a venue just outside Parys. While the gardens were indeed beautiful, and the rooms matched the online pictures, our overall experience fell short of the 4-star rating. The disappointment stemmed from a lack of authentic communication. Upon our arrival, we encountered issues with the water supply, particularly when the bride attempted to use the toilet and found there was no water to flush. Despite inquiring about the problem, we were left with the impression that it was a temporary issue, and that the water would be restored shortly. Unfortunately, the actual cause of the water problem was never clearly communicated, and it later came to light that Parys had been experiencing water issues for some time. Had we been informed about these challenges beforehand, we could have been better prepared. Instead, we discovered that an adjacent house was available for bathroom facilities, but it was unsettling and not as clean as you would expect. The realization that water only functioned when there was no load shedding added further complications. On the day of the wedding, the bride had to wake up at 5 am for a shower, as loadshedding was scheduled for 6 am. This was her only opportunity to shower before the wedding that afternoon, adding unnecessary stress to an already significant day. Every bride deserves a seamless and stress-free experience on her wedding day, and the challenges we faced with water availability were unexpected. My intention in sharing this review is not to tarnish the guesthouse's reputation but to encourage a collective learning experience for everyone involved. Honesty and transparency about potential challenges, such as electricity and water issues, would greatly benefit guests. Knowing in advance would allow for better preparation and understanding of what to expect, ensuring that no guest or even bride has to navigate such circumstances in the future.
What a surprise, this place is absolutely beautiful. The decor and the garden are something special.
Neat and clean. Value for money.
If you have ever seen value for money this is the very best example.
We really enjoyed the beautiful garden and the nice swimming pool. What a wonderful weekend with my two sisters! Next year same time same place! Thank you.
Very relaxing atmosphere in nicely maintained garden. Rooms are neat and spacious.
Hidden Grace is a beautiful perfect place.
This was our 2nd time at Hidden Grace in 2 months. and certainly not our last.
I understand there was a water shortage and loadshedding. It would be nice if reception communicated the loadshedding schedule and water shortfall to guests via whatsapp or notes. We arrived at the place late in the evenings and then reception was not available. We communicate via whatsapp to confirm arrival.
Our stay was quite pleasant and the gardens are beautiful. A pity that there was no water pressure which made it difficult to shower. (This was not during load shedding). A suggestion would be to have at least candles and matches in the rooms for load shedding.
We were a group and wanted to barbecue. The guest house was excellent in how we were accommodated. Just sorry for the persistent loadshedding. Beautiful gardens and great accommodation.
The rooms are very nice and a delicious breakfast is served.
Had a great time at Hidden Grace!
See stars.
We enjoyed it, it was nice that we could just be there quietly and sit in the garden and drink coffee.
Hidden Grace is very beautiful and safe. The only negative thing I have to say is that our room smelled terribly musty, and the fan did not work to relieve the smell. Room 3.
Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a break.
Clean. Safe. Comfortable. Value for money.
See stars.
The queen size bed was just terribly hard.
See above, the Lady was not informative at all.
My husband and I would not recommend Hidden Grace at all. The room we slept in is not up to standard at all. The toilet seat was broken and the bathroom's extraction fan made a deafening noise when you turned on the bathroom light. The bed's frame was very loose and crooked. It looked like it might topple over at any moment. For a 4 star guest house, the rooms' interior, space and finish are not worth the money you pay.
The rooms were very nice and tidy and the gardens were also incredibly beautiful. It was nice and close to the shops and very convenient. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay there again.
Zelda was incredibly friendly and very helpful.
The tranquility, friendliness and cleanliness at Hidden Grace makes me want to go there again and again. Als was perfect!
Clean, tidy and very peaceful.
Very quiet with friendly staff.
It was very nice and good experience. Friendly staff and service.
The water pressure is a bit bad.
Hidden Grace was the perfect choice for a quick visit with girlfriends in Paris. Nice, neat, clean and stylish rooms with everything you need. Quiet environment, yet centrally located so we were close to the nice shops and restaurants.
Location is spot on, room beautiful beyond expectations, breakfast tasty and more than sufficient, reception friendly.
Cozy and I would stay there again.
Friendly reception, room very neat and clean. Very centrally located near restaurants and art shops.
The location is very good and within walking distance of the central business area. The gardens are beautiful and well maintained. The room was neat and clean. Bathroom may need some work.
We had a Mother and Daughter weekend. It was great fun. We had a great stay in Hidden Grace and felt safe. Could walk and run to all the places we wanted to visit. The receptionist at Hidden Grace handled all our quirks and whims well. Hidden Grace was unable to provide us with dinners. We went to eat at O's restaurant and the owner of Plum Tree prepared farm food for us which we heated in the microwave that evening. Just ask Hidden Grace for a small fridge and microwave and they will put it in the room. We slept in Room 5.
We were very happy with the service as well as the beautiful gardens. The room was neat and clean. Very happy with our stay at Hidden Grace. It is such a beautiful place.
Staff are friendly and helpful.
See stars.
Our room, no 4, was very spacious, clean and tidy with a lovely, comfortable bed and pillows. Unfortunately there were quite a few broken handles, a broken drawer and a broken curtain tie back hook. One bedside lamp did not work. This was reported at reception but not fixed during our stay. Some of the cupboard doors were closed which meant that only shelf space but no hanging space was available. There was also no file with information and contact numbers in the room. The garden is beautiful and overall it is a very peaceful, quiet place to stay. I would also really like to have nice fresh filter coffee at breakfast and not diluted fruit juice either. The staff were all very friendly and maybe just need a little guidance to make them a stalwart team. Hidden Grace was certainly a beautiful stately lady but now there are creases in her expensive dress which makes her lose some of her beauty. Still, I hope to visit her again in the future.
Very happy with our accommodation choice, conveniently located with friendly staff.
Broken shower, black mold on ceilings, poor conditions and upkeep. I know we all have gone through Covid hard times but this doesn't count for the small things that make the stay great.
We really enjoyed our stay. Beautifully manicured gardens. Safe area.
I wish I could stay here for longer. It looks like something from a fairy tale. Without a doubt the most friendly service. Nothing was too much for them. I would recommend this guesthouse to anyone.
We enjoy staying at Hidden Grace every time we visit Paris. The rooms are spacious, romantic and incredibly beautiful. We love the beautiful garden and the tranquility it creates. Truly a gem.
After a long day of shopping and nostalgia, it is the place to end a well-deserved getaway!
It is definitely value for money. The rooms were beautiful, attention to small details, breakfast was delicious.
We really enjoyed our sleep over.
We were very kindly welcomed to this beautiful place! The fairytale garden makes you feel like you are in another world. The personnel also went the extra mile with my special requests! It was a pleasant visit.
From the moment you arrive at the gem of a place you are carried on the hands! Staff are very friendly, helpful and professional! The room was very nicely furnished, very very clean and well appointed! Nothing is too much trouble and the staff really went out of their way to accommodate me by allowing me to check out later in the afternoon. The gardens are incredibly beautiful, a loop court! Very private and quiet! The place deserves 5 stars and must stay!
Het baie lekker gekuier. Die plek is pragtig. Die mense is vriendelik en behulpsaam. Dankie vir die lekker bederf.
It was a wonderful experience and the guest house was beautiful. I would definitely recommend it and especially for a wedding venue!
Beautiful and neat.
Maybe better indication where reception is from the parking area. Maybe take requests for breakfast.
Service was very good, very nice room. Clean with air conditioning, TV and fan. Very nice gardens, well looked after.
Room is neat and beautifully furnished. Linen clean and very neat.
Good service. Neat room and garden.
This place is a gem in Parys. Luxurious accommodation, can definitely recommend it to any traveller. Close to the town, but still peaceful and calm.
We had a great time here, the bed was clean, fresh and beautiful! Thank you for your hospitality!
The staff was very friendly and the rooms and bathroom was beautiful and clean.
The staff are so helpful, I'll be back for sure! Service is fantastic and really value for money!
Thanks for a wonderful weekend, cannot complain about staff, food or friendliness. Will definitely make use of your hospitality again! Thank you very much.
Very tidy and very friendly and helpful manager. The breakfast was excellent and I would really recommend anyone to sleep over there.
Very comfortable and peaceful atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and made sure that everything went smoothly and that all the guests were comfortable. I would recommend Hidden Gace anytime.
A special getaway to heal aching hearts. We were carried on our hands with the most delicious breakfast and surprise coffee in the most beautiful garden! Rooms spacious with French flair - fit for royalty!
What a beautiful place! The parking is secure, the gardens beautiful and well-kept, the rooms stylish and luxurious. The pool was unfortunately green, but with the weather conditions this is understandable. The staff were friendly and professional. The breakfast was delicious. I would definitely recommend staying at Hidden Grace.
We were very impressed with the beautiful place from the start. The room was beautiful, neat and almost an enchantment. The garden and everything was so beautiful. We took beautiful pictures for our "memories".
Lovely place. Quiet street, clean and tidy.
Just would have liked WiFi. No signal. The room was great, but I emailed them a request. Clearly they did not understand what I needed. I just think that it could have been sorted out by phone if they didn't understand exactly what the request was, also they could have had more info, as well as a map of Paris, in the room. Furthermore, everything was top notch.
Friendly welcome, upgraded and accommodated when we had to check out late. Good experience.
Friendly reception and the rooms were clean and tidy. The beautiful gardens and swimming pool create a peaceful atmosphere. Will definitely visit again.
Trash cans in rooms please. Thank you.
We were kindly received and received good service from the staff. Very neat and clean accommodation in a good location close to all the shops and attractions of the quaint town. Would highly recommend it.
