"Very convenient!"

It was very nice! Friendly people, warm floors, clean and very tidy. Much more than we expected!

"Fantastic."

Als was perfect, the service provided was more than we expected. Very clean and safe. The photos online don't do enough justice, it's definitely better in person.

"Neat, clean. Balcony a definite bonus."

Beautiful place to stay on the shore of the dam. Neat and comfortable. The balcony makes the stay so much more enjoyable.

"Neat and safe."

We had a very nice stay. Will definitely book again at the Kosmos Manor.

"Romantic."

It is the most romantic place with the most beautiful view of the dam.

"Well nice."

Will definitely visit them again.

"Was very nice for staying."

Comfortable. Very good condition. Affordable.

"Very nice, comfortable and tidy, but make inquiries about view rooms."

Self-catering accommodation was not nice at first, but then very nice. The first night's accommodation was like a cave and all views are against walls. There was no hot water because a broken geyser and the next morning there was no water due to a burst pipe. We were moved to the Ruby unit which has a garden view (not the pond) and everything worked and we had a great stay. Only the upper floors have a dam view if you go for a view. The photos are confusing because on the sheet they do not show two self-catering units separately. The staff were always very friendly and helpful.

"Very comfortable and nice stay!"

Was very nice, very friendly service!

"Very nice."

Very nice. I will definitely go again. Very quiet, neat and clean.

"Peaceful."

Besides not having running water when I arrived until the following afternoon, my stay was very relaxing. Friendly staff was always there to help, and the breakfast was great. Right on the dam, can't ask for much more than that. Thank you.

"Not good."

I did not receive a code to enter the property through a security gate - I had to beg to be let in. No pre-booking indications where to park - it was a bit of a mess. The guesthouse did not inform me that more than 95 steps were awaiting me - otherwise, I would not have booked there at all. Very dusty room (curtains, bedding, and carpets). Sour milk x 2, reused bathroom shampoo containers, old used soap - very dark bathroom - no bright light anywhere. During my breakfast I could not order a 2nd cup of coffee - all were packed away - and the breakfast dish was made up the night before - and microwaved on serving Sunday morning. Not good!

"We really enjoyed the tranquility of Kosmos Manor. Was very relaxing for us."

Had a great time walking around in a secure complex. Enjoyed a top notch breakfast. It was superb with more than we could enjoy. Our self-catering unit was very neat and clean and luxurious. Truly a beautiful place with hospitable people.

"Nice visit, good service."

It's a place to unwind and offers good value for money.

"Fantastic getaway."

Very neat place with friendly and very helpful staff. I suggest booking the presidential rooms, the view is amazing.

"Calm and quiet."

Very nice place, well located, had a nice breakfast, will definitely sleep there again.

"Disappointing."

The apartment is very modern, but unfortunately we did not get what we hoped for. We booked right next to the dam to get a nice view, then we were put in a room that is like a cave, no windows you can see out of. The swimming pool is unusable because of the icy water. We were not offered breakfast at all, although it reads B&B. Room floors were extremely dirty on arrival.

"Breathtaking!"

Thanks to Ilze and Violet for the fantastic service, the rooms and breakfast are out of the books. The Emerald room made us feel like a king and queen with beautiful furniture and a spacious room with the most beautiful view of the dam. We'll see you again soon.

"Lovely quiet time."

We stayed at Kosmos Manor while visiting SA from NZ. Was lovely, we will definitely come and stay there again.

"Relaxing, peaceful, and magnificent views of the dam."

Friendly staff. Beautiful guest house.

"See stars."

Very good value for money, great service and rooms.

"Best accommodation in Harties."

Kosmos Manor staff is the friendliest people on earth. The breakfast is out of this world. The make sure you are supercharged when you leave the breakfast table. Nice spot for fishing as well. The room was very modernised and very spacious. The bar is walking distance. Boat cruise is also walking distance.

"Very happy with the stay. Would recommend Kosmos Manor."

Very friendly service from the staff. Large spacious and luxurious room. Very nice view of the dam.

"Incredibly delicious and beautiful."

The place overlooks the pond and our room was very well equipped and very private. Will always recommend.

"We had a wonderful stay with my friends."

Friendly staff, breakfast was the best. My friends and I had the time of our life, I would go back anytime.

"Relaxing."

It was friendly service we received and it was cozy.

"Place needs maintenance and is not very clean."

Rooms need maintenance. Lots of ants in the kitchen. Pool dirty. Rooms not very clean. Garden needs maintenance. Place closed after a certain time and have to call for someone to open.

"It was really pleasant, with very friendly service."

My wife went to treat me there for my birthday, it was so much fun then my little girl didn't want to go home. The breakfast was also one of the tastiest we have ever eaten at Hartbeespoortdam.

"My daughter traveled with her and she was amazed at the extras in the unit."

The underfloor heating was a lovely bonus.

"This gem helped us relax."

Wow, what an experience with great service and breathtaking cleanliness. The guest house is definitely on our no. 1 if it comes. When staying in Hartbeespoortdam. The people were willing to help with everything and friendly dies were provided. We will stay here again for sure!

"Very happy with the place."

Customer service was excellent and the location is very good.

"No-go for Kosmos Manor."

Our experience at this 5-star guest house was not nice at all. The staff are unfriendly and not welcoming at all. The service is non-existent if you don't ask for it. You have to permanently have to look for someone for assistance. The food was cold and overcooked. Not to be expected from a 5-star manor. The manor is in urgent need of maintenance. The pool was dirty and murky. Drinks are very expensive and the variety available is minimum. The pictures you see are not what you get. This is not a 5-star place at all, I will not recommend you go there, especially for the price you pay.

"The manor is severely over priced. The staff and interior appears tired. "

Linnen is clean and old. The outside garden is unkept. The water cold. Instant coffee served. Mixed up all the breakfast orders. The gate to the parking is locked and you wait a long time when you press the bell. There are many many stairs, no help was offered with luggage when you check out. The listing shows awards won, four star accommodation. This was not our experience. The prices should be adjusted.

"Disappointing experience."

General maintenance not up to standard.

"A lovely place with an exceptional view, and extremely friendly staff. "

See stars.

"Amazing."

Was absolutely fantastic.

"Luxurious comfort with a beautiful view of the dam."

It was our 2nd visit to Kosmos Manor and it was once again great. It is a beautiful guest house with excellent service. The room is spacious and tidy. Definitely one of my favorites in Harties.

"Very beautiful and luxurious, breakfast was very tasty."

Very beautiful place, nice food, but service could be better and I don't think it's a 5-star place, more a 3-star place.

"Accommodation was disappointing."

It was not value for money. There is a lot of potential, but maintenance is lacking. The toilet ran all night. We stayed in the "self-catering" unit, the cutlery of the unit was insufficient. Unit is equipped with a hair dryer but no power point equipped for the two prong of the hair dryer. It's a really nice place but definitely not value for money.

"It's a nice place to go to your vacation with an awesome hospitality."

See rating.

"Lovely stay in Kosmos."

Kosmos Manor is a beautiful guesthouse with a beautiful view of the dam. The room is very clean and tidy. Delicious breakfast and secure parking. Good and friendly service.

"Fantastic."

The area is so tranquil and the accommodation beautiful and comfortable. Lovely places to walk around the accommodation. Very safe and quiet.

"Absolutely fantastic."

I can't wait to go to Kosmos Manor again. It was absolutely beautiful and the service was great.

"Excellent quality!"

Thank you for the hospitality and personal attention.

"Not worth the stars."

The guesthouse was a disappointment. The room is very big, clean and luxurious, but the cupboard has somebody's old clothes in it. The other rooms can look into the bathroom and the door handle to the veranda is broken. The swimming pool is not heated as advertised and the Jacuzzi can't be used. The fruit with breakfast were rotten and the service even more rotten! The guesthouse is definitely not worth the price.

"Breathtaking."

The suites are the best that I have seen in a very long time. would love to live there for a month or two. A lot of stairs to climb before getting to the guesthouse, but good exercise.

"My new favorite in Harties."

We stayed in the Presidential Supreme Room and the photos on the website do not do the room "justice". It's an incredibly beautiful room and very spacious. We only stayed one night, but we will definitely go back to Kosmos Manor for our next trip to Hartebeespoort Dam. My new "favourite" in Harties!

"A wonderful peaceful weekend."

We had a great time staying in this beautiful place. Service was good and the atmosphere very peaceful.

"Excellent reception and service. Rooms of the best in terms of comfort and luxury."

We were there for our 50th wedding anniversary. The reception was excellent. The service wonderful. There was also a surprise on the evening of April 2. The number "50" was "written" on the bed in red rose petals.

"Our stay greatly contributed to making our 40th wedding anniversary unforgettable and it will be remembered for a long time."

We looked forward to the opportunity to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. The accommodation at Kosmos Manor satisfied all our expectations and greatly contributed to making memories that we won't be forgetting any time soon. Our sincerest thanks to your dedicated and friendly staff.

"Disappointing."

For a place to advertise themselves as 5-star accommodation, I believe a client will have some requirements and expectations. Upon arrival it was unlocked and nobody offered to help with the luggage, considering the many steps. A lot of effort was put into making the room romantic but I struggled to appreciate the rose petals when I saw how torn the sheet is that we have to sleep on. And that at a 5-star establishment? I couldn't look past all the spider webs, dust and dirty furniture. Unacceptable! Not to mention the poor television signal that prevented us form watching anything. The remote was so dirty and taped together with sellotape that stuck to everything and it left me with a bitter taste in my mouth because I paid R2000 per night. My husband and I went there for our wedding anniversary and I booked this particular place because of the Jacuzzi and swimming pool. I was charged an extra R400 for the use of the Jacuzzi. I don't even know where to start. I asked that the Jacuzzi be ready in the late afternoon. At 6pm it was still cold and we couldn't use and enjoy it. Then I'm not even talking about the dirty swimming pool and porch yet. I don't mind paying the R400 for the convenience, but it is disappointing to organise and look forward to use something that is dirty and not usable. 5-star?! On top of that there was a power failure of almost 2 and a half hours. Without a generator? Maybe my expectations are too high for 5-star accommodation that you pay R2000 for, but we were both very disappointed. The only thing that is 5-star worthy is their delicious food. The food was delicious. The safety of the area where the cars are parked is not on standard for 5-star accommodation. For people who visit places in South Africa frequently, this was a big disappointment. Not worth the money at all.

"Loved the staff. Loved the premises."

This place is great for family visits and a couple's retreat. It's close to the dam with lovely views.

"Brilliant place. Brilliant service. Theresa well done to you and team !!!!!"

Absolutely beautiful small heaven. Brilliant customer service. Theresa well done to you and team, keep up the great work!! I will definitely come again.

"Valentine's weekend getaway."

We would definitely recommend Kosmos Manor - professional service, friendly staff and fantastic facilities.

"It was absolutely just fantastic!"

Please see the stars.

"Charming experience!!!"

We had a fantastic stay, the staff gave exceptional service and I would definitely recommend Kosmos Manor!

"Excellent weekend getaway spot."

The guesthouse was beautifully styled, the staff were friendly. We had a beautiful view of the dam, it is situated at the centre of all the "Harties Activities". Only one critique, on our second day, the staff assumed that we'd have the same breakfast we ordered on the first day. The option to change menus wasn't available. Overall, I enjoyed our stay.

"Very nice."

Beautiful place, just concerned about the informal settlement near by.

"Very pretty."

Ideal place for a romantic weekend. Nice views, and great service.

"Excellent, just not suitable for senior citizens with all the stairs."

Special guest house. Beautiful view. Excellently equipped accommodation. TV channel choices are very limited. Parking is unsafe. The MANY stairs that some senior citizens have to climb are very troublesome. WiFi is also recommended.

"Lovely stay by the dam."

We had a very nice stay. The place is well looked after and terribly romantic. Thank you very much Kosmos Manor!

"Enjoyed it a lot."

See the stars.

"We enjoyed our stay and will certainly be back. "

Next time we will book for a top floor room as it does seem to have more light and has a view. The room we stayed in has no view. The breakfast was good and presentable.

"It was a big shock!"

We were very surprised with the accommodation - so neat and beautiful and friendly staff. Will definitely go again and recommend to other people.

"Beautiful, super luxurious facilities with courteous, well-trained staff."

See the stars below.

"Delicious!"

Thank you Theresa, I was terribly spoiled on my birthday. They put in a lot of effort and all the staff were friendly. Extra thanks to Violet and Thompson.

"Very nice, but air conditioning did not work!"

Great value for money and friendly reception.

"A touch of luxury in Cosmos!"

The ideal destination to break away from our daily rat race. The room and guest house were neat and the staff were friendly.

"Good stay"

Very clean.

"Calm and peaceful, but other guests' door was too close... it bothered us at night."

For our purposes it worked, but we wouldn't consider it with a family. The atmosphere is not cozy. The bed was wonderfully large, but too soft and the neighbor could not open and close his bedroom door SOFTLY at 00:00 at night. The rooms are spacious, but the balcony provides no privacy. The outside shower is not usable - dirty. I don't understand why it's there if you're not sheltered from spectators. The real old and antique furniture attracted attention and paintings I could enjoy.

"Very nice with a fantastic view over the dam."

See the stars below.

"We had awesome time at Kosmos Manor I have already recommended it "

Kosmos Manor a 5 star I am already planning my next stay there.n I will Recommend it the family and friends.

"The stay and the breakfast were great. "

The service was excellent. Thanks

"Rest for the soul!"

Beautiful rooms, peaceful atmosphere, very friendly staff and a very nice breakfast.

"Good stay - some outdoor improvement needed in the garden"

It was good to stay with Kosmos Manor. We really enjoyed to stay there . The hospitality and arrangements are excellent. Only thing I feel could be improved is that they need one or two worker to keep the garden neat and clean / tidy. I certainly wants to visit again with my family!
