62 guests' feedbackThe host was very welcoming.
Absolutely wonderful visit, clean and tidy place and lovely people. Thanks again.
The hosts are extremely accommodating and gracious.
Very friendly and nice people. With a clean place.
It was very pleasant to stay there, with friendly service and value for money.
Good accommodation at a good cost. Close enough to all the fun activities of Paris. Rina and Johan are so friendly and kept me informed of the Loadshedding schedules so I can plan my day accordingly. They go the extra mile to accommodate and get to know guests.
Wonderful reception by Rina and Johan. Very friendly elderly couple. Clean and spacious room.
Beautiful place. Spacious room. Neat shower and toilet facilities. The room is clean and tidy, and the few old pieces of furniture remind you of your childhood. I recommend the place again and will definitely spend a night or two there again. Many thanks also to the owner, for his comfortable conversation with my wife and myself.
Had a great stay.
Location is very convenient. Will visit again. TV and extra 2-prong plugs in unit would be convenient.
Very good value for money and everything I required was provided: shower, comfortable bed, microwave oven, fridge and secure parking.
Lovely place, listening to the Vaal put me to sleep very quickly. Friendly hosts, well-equipped room. Will stay again!
The perfect overnight stop. Clean, tidy, safe and everything you want for one or two nights. Have stayed there several times and definitely will again in the future. Thank you Johan and Rina.
Roamers Rest is an appropriate stopover. I have stayed there several times and definitely will again. It's safe and convenient near everything in Paris. It does not have a TV in the room but there is good WiFi.
Have stayed here several times and will again. It is the perfect overnight stop with secure parking.
Very friendly reception, nice big rooms. Will definitely stay with them again.
The perfect overnight stop. My 2nd time at Roamers Rest and I will stay there again. The room is large with a small kitchen. It is very clean, tidy, safe and centrally located.
Friendly welcome, was pleasantly surprised with the location and size of the unit, literally walking distance to certain places, the tranquility is exactly what I needed. Will definitely stay there again and recommend to everyone I know.
Television needed. No ice trays.
After a long, difficult journey, you made us feel so welcome. Thank you very much for a wonderful visit.
Roamers Rest is located near the main street, so close to everything. The room is neat, comfortable and equipped with everything you could need. The owners are also very friendly. I'll grill with them anytime.
Very comfortable stay for a quick visit to Parys, one of the few places that allow you to book just one night.
A better shower facility and a TV would be nice enhancements.
Will use Roamers Rest again.
Roamers rest is the perfect overnight stop. The room is large and very spacious, much larger than I expected and what I am used to. The parking area is also safe. I would definitely stay there again if I'm in the area. Perhaps it can only be specifically mentioned that there is no TV in the room.
Friendly service, very neat and clean, we will definitely use them.
Bed very hard. Carpets in front of bed and in bathroom not clean.
Very nice people and very neat place.
The lady is very friendly and nice. The place was beautiful, clean and neat, and has WiFi which is always a plus.
We were able to arrive earlier and were very friendly and everything was to our liking. Keys were handed over and the accommodation was very peaceful with secure parking. There was a kettle, coffee and tea available, a microwave and fridge. Neat clean bathroom. Will definitely visit them again.
Puik, vriendelik, behulpsaam.
The host is very friendly and hospitable. We felt very at home.
Very cute, near river.
Very cute place to stay.
Roamers Rest was definitely a good choice, even though we weren't there long we were very impressed with the cleanliness and safety of the place, and people also very friendly.
Lovely spacious room. Walking distance from river and near town.
Enjoyed our stay. All was neat and clean. They were even willing to help with extra guests when they were already fully booked.
Warm, friendly reception even the 2 beautiful sheepdogs. Everything was in order 100%. If I can make just one recommendation. What about an extra chair in our room. We were 2. I don't like sitting on a bed. Personal taste. Otherwise everything was outstanding.
Thanks for the pleasant stay.
Fantastic hosts and real value for money. Thank you, will definitely return.
The owner and his wife are very friendly and helpful. It's very clean and tidy. Would recommend to others anytime. The river is within walking distance and you can hear the ripples over the rocks.
We had a very nice stay. Excellent service! The owner went out of his way to accommodate us! Will definitely come again.
The room is absolutely spacious, very neat and clean and all the amenities you need are present. The guest house is very centrally located and by the river. The owner received us very kindly and is serious about providing a good service. Will definitely book again!
Absolutely value for money, thank you very much!
The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms, bathrooms and gardens are very clean and tidy. The river is within walking distance and the town center a stone's throw away. The rooms are not self-catering, but do have a kettle, fridge and microwave. Sarel (the owner) arranged a braai for us and we had a great barbecue in the garden. There are so many restaurants in Paris, that there is no point in preparing food yourself. We had a lovely stay and will definitely go back, this time for a bit longer.
Had a good night's rest, quiet area of the town.
Service was very good and if I needed something, Sarel helped me immediately.
Clean, tidy, friendly. Had a nice stay.
Everything very neat. Would appreciate if there was TV and better WiFi. Plates and knives and forks a must. Not informed to summarize own. Owner very friendly.
We booked 3 double rooms at Roamers and two rooms were transferred to the Danes next door. Rooms were very tidy but would recommend they should replace the beds and mattresses in both rooms. One would like to sleep well, but mattresses were very lumpy and one bed very clumsy.
Spacious rooms, helpful, neat and clean.
Perfectly located for those who want to experience Parys.
What a pleasant surprise to be able to stay in such a perfect place (for my circumstances as a paraplegic) for 1 night. The room is spacious and very clean and tidy, as is the bathroom. No problem to come and go, as one gets one's own key for the security gate. Owners beautiful friendly people. Would not hesitate for a moment to recommend the place or to stay there again if the opportunity arises.
We were received kindly and felt safe at all times.
Sarel received us very generously on arrival and was very helpful. Roamers rest is walking distance from the river and Parys Country Club and for the more fit, even walking distance from town center with all the restaurants and shops.
Friendly and good service. Quiet area.
Had a nice stay. Everything was very neat and the owners very friendly. Highly recommended.
Value for money. For business it is good. Can recommend it.
See star-rating.
Was really pleasantly surprised with the accommodation and it was nice close to the town's business center just walked to town. My 2 granddaughters and I had a wonderful stay and it was nice that we could stay in 1 room.
The room we slept in had no chairs in it, just a very small table with only coffee, no tea or rooibos tea. The sink is not consumer friendly for a man who wants to shave, the water supply to the sink is also as slow as it gets. This is just a place to sleep, neat yes but that's where it ends. I think R500 per night might be a bit much for what you get.
On arrival we had to call to check in. Get message that the person is not available. After a long time a lady shows up to open the gate. She is unfriendly and says she is not the owner. She is a teacher and just helping out. Her husband is in Durban. She just hands over the key without explaining anything or offering help. No bedside lights. Only one side of the bed has a floor mat on the tiled floor. Three different coffee mugs. One teaspoon. Curtains torn. According to the advertisement, it is a charming guest house, there are barbecue areas and daily cleaning services. The braai places were not pointed out to us either and there is no further eating utensils or braai equipment in the room. Unfortunately we paid in advance for 2 nights and then only had to stay the two nights. No one came to clean the place on the second day. As we leave, the owner's father arrives. His defense is that their sign on the gate clearly shows that these are overnight rooms and not a guest house or B&B. However, it is advertised on the website as a guest house. This is the worst accommodation I have ever booked.
