Guests are centrally located close to a center shop and even close to the University. It is worth your money. The place is beautiful and very neat I will definitely book in again.
Quiet atmosphere and good location.
Yes, we were just sorry that the WiFi was not working.
Located close to a shopping complex with restaurant. Quiet and safe area. The rooms can be updated. Neat and clean.
This is an ideal overnight stop and located close to the highway.
Had a great time and slept, thank you.
Very tidy, and we were spoiled with the most beautiful room and good service. Thank you to Rusplek and for making our stay so enjoyable.
Very neat, clean and safe place to sleep. Excellent location close to all highways and shops.
The place is neglected, maintenance is far behind. We stayed in the room called "Bethlehem". The hot tap is loose by the sink. The faucets in the shower are not marked "hot" and "cold". We were 3 people, but there were only 2 towels and 2 coffee mugs in the room. The bedside light has a two-prong plug but no "adapter" for the three-prong wall plug. When I went to reception to inquire about the towel etc, there was no one on duty. I ended up calling the guest house number and the lady on duty answered the phone elsewhere and came to reception and said she patrolled the place. Supposedly this is a three star rated guest house, clearly the place has not been rated for a long time. I will definitely not stay here again.
Guests who stayed together in the guest house noisy, no respect for fellow guests, knocking on doors until 4 in the morning, knocking on doors to ask for condoms, shower taps not working. The area has deteriorated greatly. Site needs a lot of TLC. Will never book there again.
Had a great stay and felt safe.
Couldn't rest assured. Children played hard tennis tournaments and slept badly due to noise from other residents.
Very pleasant, restful and tidy.
Very nice guesthouse, neat, clean and excellent service.
Thank you for everything. Thanks for the tranquillity. Very helpful. Very friendly.
See stars.
Enjoyed our overnight stop. Close to highway. Very pleasant staff. Secure complex. Would go back again.
Bedroom lacked pillowcases and the sink faucet was loose. But helped us quickly. Braai facilities are sufficient and we were able to sleep with our pets.
No control over noise levels. Even after 00:00 which was very selfish.
Nice close to highway, close to shop, little traffic.
Rest place is ideally located in a quiet residential area, but also very close to the N1. Hence easy access to all the attractions. Options on accommodation from single room with double bed to family rooms. Also ideal is the self-catering option which keeps accommodation costs low. Will definitely stay with them if I come to Bloemfontein again.
Bad value for money. There was misrepresentation. Will never visit the establishment again.
See stars.
The bonus for me was the relaxing garden with the water fountain at reception.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room was very neat and clean. We will definitely stay again at Die Rusplek. We slept 100% well.
Awesome venue. Very well equipped and clean.
Friendly, honest place. I left my kindle there and got a call by mid day to say it was at reception. We were not informed that the bathroom was really en suite when booking but we did have our own bathroom across the way. They allowed us to leave our trailer there until we were ready to leave Bloem. Very kind!
It was a nice clean room and we had a great stay. Quiet and peaceful, but just too little for the children to do. Would stay there again anytime.
Although I would recommend Rest Place to others we were very disappointed. I mentioned during booking that we needed a wheelchair friendly unit. Upon our arrival, a room with "up stairs" was reserved for us. Rest Place was surprised when we mentioned we had booked a wheelchair friendly unit. Fortunately, they then had another room available for us. They then book us in lg. room (one step to enter room) which was not comfortable at all. We had to move the beds around all the time so my husband could move. If our teenage son hadn't been there with us I would have had a lot of trouble moving the heavy furniture around myself. There was also no chair in the shower that my husband could use to take a shower.
Very good service, as well as neat.
Cold water faucet in my room (Beth El) was working hard, power went off constantly (power trip). Otherwise very nice stay.
I had a very nice stay. The walls of the single rooms are a little thin when my neighbor's phone rings, I hear the whole conversation.
See stars.
We stayed in the King Solomons Suite and it is a beautiful room with a balcony. There is a shower and a spa bathtub in the bathroom. There is only one problem: when I switched on the pump in the bath, there was a bad smell and the bath filled with algae and hair within minutes. I assume the bath isn't used that often en that algae building up cannot be avoided. Maybe a spa bathtub isn't a good choice for a guest house. We informed reception about the problem.
I booked the rooms for a group ladies attending training. They described the rooms as comfortable. However, the lack of an air-conditioner in summer was duly noted. Meals were good. The guest house went out of their way to accommodate my diabetic guests' medication. The staff were friendly and helpful.
We only used the accommodation for a place to sleep. The room was neat and clean, which you expect from a place you pay for. We enjoyed a nice breakfast at Rusplek on Saturday morning (something you can strongly consider). The staff is very friendly. Unfortunately, our neighbors came back very late in the evening and made a lot of noise (I know it's not the guest house's fault).
Room was not up to our expectations, musty smell, ants infested, and water pipes rippling and gulping through the night. I would not recommend Dawid's Hide away (our room's name) but would request a different room next time. Also no outside light in front of entrance and room located right in front of washroom which makes it noisy when staff there work early in the morning. The family room was value for money, but definitely not the double room.
Porches where we had to sit and relax after a long journey were dirty. Certainly not swept or washed in days. Looks like something urinated there and then blew dust. Brown ugly spots. Took pictures. Furthermore, the ashtray was full of cigarette ash and the assistant only threw it into the ash bin after our arrival, where it continued to stink. Dirty knee high pantyhose lay under rattan couch on porch. No. Abominable. Also have photo of it. Extremely disappointing. Dirty porches. Untended gardens. Building materials in sight. Beautiful chickens and bunnies in a cage, but no food or water. No, they never see me again.
First impressions are lasting. Arriving at 16:45 we had to wait a long time in front of the gate. We had to call the office first and then the gate was opened. The person on duty in the office really didn't seem to know exactly what was going on. It was as if he was unprepared and at first we were told we had not booked. Our room really smelled like it had not been opened for days. We immediately opened windows for the musty smell to go out of the room and then it was better. Our room was cleaned very nicely every day and the bedding was clean. Towels were changed every day which was very nice. The room next to us had a pipe burst and the water from next door flowed through to our room (it seems the units are only separated by a door). Luckily our suitcase was not on the carpet, otherwise everything would be wet. The problem was reported to reception who tried to get the water on our carpets to dry. I cannot understand that someone could not think that if the room next door is flooded with a burst pipe that there is also a chance that it could spread to our room. Friends who stayed with us in another unit had a roof leaking in 3 places - it must please. be sorted out. Again, if you have electronic equipment in a unit and are out on business all day, it's a problem when you come back and your laptop is wet with rain. The staff at reception informed us they are aware of the leaks in the unit's roof. Unfortunately, this is not good enough. It is unprofessional to put guests in a room if management is fully aware of a leaking roof. The above mentioned to help Rest Place with problems we had, maybe they can sort it out for future guests.
Booked single facilities with twin beds and pet friendly. On arrival, only facilities with a double bed and not pet friendly were reserved. I had to pay an extra R500 for the facilities and because I have a puppy. If I had the correct information I could definitely have booked somewhere else for a much better price. The room and facilities are neat and clean, but there were an awful lot of small ants that came out everywhere.
It was spacious and clean.
Ons het baie tuis en welkom gevoel. Ons kamer was skoon en pragtig. Ons het rustig en stil geslaap. Nog nooit so lekker op 'n vreemde plek geslaap nie! Great!
After a long drive from the Cape it was wonderful to get some proper rest before we hit the road again.
As mentioned above, bathroom not user friendly. Short shelf or box to put your things on.
We were able to bring our Dachshund, always beter to travel with your fury friends. Spacious, clean room. Perfect for overnight stay on the way to the Cape.
Enough space for the children to stretch their legs after all the sitting in the car. Neat and everything we needed. Reception friendly and very helpful. A good price is the icing on the cake! Would definitely recommend!
Neat room close to university - excellent value for money.
See the stars.
Easy to find, very satisfied.
Very good experience. Clean with enough space. Swimming pools and playground for kids.
Reception could have been friendlier. The room was very neat. The bathroom was just very dark at night. Better lighting would be great. The shelf on top of the basin is also very low. You hit your head when bending over the basin. Maybe the shelf could be moved. The walls between units are very thin. Would like not to know what my neighbours are up to! Apart from that I really can't complain. Definitely value for money and I can recommend Rusplek any time.
Excellent overnight stay. The only negative experience was the owner's remark regarding the room that might have a problem (and it wasn't really faulty) and that we can choose 2 different rooms (for 3 people) at an extra cost. That's not how a business should operate.
They helped us very quickly because we urgently needed a place to stay for the evening, and the service and experience was great.
Friendly people at reception, neat room, convenient location. We really enjoyed the room. Thank you guys.
Very nice but the DSTV decoder kept on falling down, but the rest was stunning.
This was a good place for a stopover en route to Cape Town.
It's probably the 4th time we've slept here. Each time the place deteriorates more for me. Our room's double bed's mattress is completely worn out and the bed creaks unbearably. We didn't sleep at all. The bathroom is hopelessly too small and impractical with the small sink and shelf sitting so low. You don't get to the sink at all. There are also no extra blankets. It had not been a pleasant night for us. We still had to drive far the next day and were dead tired.
Would just suggest they get aircon, wasn't comfortable sleeping in the heat.
The bathroom was not attached to the room. Across the hall. Not informed about it during booking. Also not mentioned on advertisement on internet. It's also so small.
I was happily surprised with this exceptional place. The gardens were well looked after, all arrangements we made were met and I have to mention the fantastic breakfast I could enjoy. The staff went out their way to make me feel at home. I will definitely book there again and also recommend it to others. Thanks to all.
We got a room in the main house at first, but upon request they moved us to a place on the ground floor with its own braai. After you spent the most of the day in the car, it was nice to sit and relax in the well-kept gardens and braai. Definitely recommended.
Traveled with a baby and pet, there was even a camping cot available in the room which made it so much easier.
Very peaceful, well located, well equipped room, comfortable beds, thank you very much for the fans in this heat wave, the bath is just high for getting in and out of the shower, pleasant experience.
Pool and jungle jim great for children in safe enviroment. Will stay there again on next trip.
Relaxing environment and friendly reception.
Clean and very beautiful. Swimming pool facilities were nice and it was very private so I really enjoyed the peacefulness
Just a pitty we couldn't get any rest. Inebriated guests checked in from 24:00 to 04:00 and trashed the place. Cars rev'ed and banging on the doors. Initially I thought they were fighting. No security guard in sight. Tried to contact reception. Notified management and they promised to follow up.
The guest house is extremely well located. Very close to the university and hospitals. There is also a good restaurant not too far from there. The staff is friendly and everything is clean and tidy.
I had booked this place for my 2 teenage daughters over a weekend. The one was visiting the sister in Bloemfontein. The venue kept me posted about the readiness and were checking on their arrival time. Checking in was smooth. The teenagers enjoyed the stay and felt very safe even if they were on their own. The staff was very friendly with them. They have asked that I book them here if they need accommodation in Bloemfontein again. Thank you very much!
Generally satisfied. A bigger variety of teas and coffees are advisable. There were only Ricoffy, 1 Five Roses tea bag, 1 Rooibos tea bag, some creamer and a few sachets of sugar. Long life milk and sweetener would also be nice.
We were in the Shalom room. The place could benefit from renovation, a bit tired. The bed closest to the bathroom creaks a lot.
We booked 2 nights. The accommodation was comfortable and fully private. Unfortunately the second night was unpleasant as there was some function and the men were loud. As women, we felt quite uncomfortable. The light in our room didn't work and it wasn't fixed when we reported it. The staff at reception, however, was very friendly.
The ceiling fan in the unit made a lot of noise - it was hot and I realised we couldn't sleep without a fan, but we would also not be able to sleep with such a noisy fan on the whole night. I went to ask reception for a standing fan for the evening - the lady gave me a small plastic fan (20 cm in diameter). The effectiveness of the fan was zero, you could only feel the wind 20 cm far! I will not recommend this place during the summer months.
We were first seated in a small remote room. I asked if they didn't have another room and we were transferred to a lovely place. The people at the reception were very friendly and in the end we had a very nice stay.
Rooms not very soundproof. Smokers should be requested not to smoke near rooms. Still unpleasant for people in the rooms!
Empty promises for booking earlier to prepare for a wedding. Not even dirty towels removed from previous guests and no toilet paper provided. No hot water was available. Staff neglected exterior work so gates rattled and creaked all night.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! We only stayed one night, but this is the guest house with the friendliest people! Very neat and beautiful rooms! They should definitely be listed as a 5 star guest house because they deserve it for sure! Will definitely stay there again!
We were very grateful that our truck could also be pulled into the yard to eliminate theft! Facilities neat and clean.
It is a very nice guest house and well located, within walking distance of a Spar and other shops. We were well received and could also have breakfast there. Will definitely stay there again.
We didn't arrive until 1:00 and were still warmly welcomed. The accommodation is neat and very comfortable. Thank you very much. I can definitely recommend the Rest Place Guest House to anyone. It's a very convenient oasis, especially if you've traveled a long way from Knysna and only stopped by the Kango Caves in Oudtshoorn.
The customer service was excellent and the accommodation was very tidy.
We were received very kindly, shown where to park, and where we would spend the night. Excellent service!
Very friendly and helpful staff.
Reception was very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and tidy. Nicely centrally located.
Very nice close to the N1. The fact that there was no fridge in the room was problematic. If you are on the road for a few days and traveling with small children, a fridge is a necessity. But beautiful place and friendly staff. Also thanks for the recommendations for places to eat - used them and had a great meal.
Generator faulty.
The resort is conveniently close to the main routes and easy to get to. The resort is very neat, comfortable and well maintained. We really enjoyed our short stay and would definitely recommend it.
The large garden creates a nice atmosphere. The pools need attention. The hot tub, fridge and stoves were a plus.
I only slept there so cannot comment on other facilities. It suited my cause.
Reception staff were efficient for the most part and catering (breakfast) staff were extremely friendly while at the same time courteous. The issues I had were with the general cleanliness of the room: thick dust on top of the ceiling fan prevented me from using it, although I would dearly have liked to, and the decor on the walls had been left to go scruffy. Security was fine, and very much in the hands of the guests, with remote gate controls for access and egress from the gated compound, albeit monitored by CCTV at reception. Guests were a mixture of transient holiday-makers, visiting business people and long-term residents. Food at breakfast was very good and plentiful, allowing one to "fill up" for the day.
See the stars.
It meets all the requirements we needed it for. Graduation day at UFS. Perfectly located for the campus visitors.
Very neat place. Our room was just above reception's office which was quite disturbing. Will book a separate room in the future.
They went to great lengths to accommodate us, despite power outages.
Very nice stay - nice and close to the University, where we wanted to be for the Free State Arts Festival.
We only stayed here one night. The room is reasonably priced so it's good value for money. However, the place looks rather run down. The room (for 3 guests) was quite cramped and the finish (especially the ceiling) leaves much to be desired. Soundproofing is poor - you hear everything that happens elsewhere in the building (and especially in the reception). The place generally just looks run down. The beds and bed linen were excellent. Everything was pretty clean.
We had a good stay, my only recommendation is about the breakfast. I don't think it was well planned, we didn't get any fruit and for the price paid I don't think it was worth it.
The guest house and rooms are on the older side, but they are clean and tidy.
The room was clean and the location is good. It was noisy though because there is only a wooden door between you and other room.
The unit we were in needs maintenance. One can see that it is already old. It's good enough if you no longer have money available for overnight stays.
The blocks on the floor are loose, it feels completely like you are back in your dorm room. The place is probably intended and convenient for contractors.
Neat place but due to load shedding we were without electricity in the room for two nights. Only their main building had power.
The room smells strongly of cigarette smoke. Overall cleanliness was lacking and it didn't feel clean. The sound from adjacent rooms is too loud for a comfortable stay. We will not stay there again nor recommend people to stay there.
Neat and clean. We booked 2 units together and then the whole booking just got messed up. The photos of the accommodation where I thought we were staying were not the case at all. Nevertheless, it was a neat place, but the internet pictures are misleading.
There had been fleas in the bed. The sink was cracked all the way through. The ceiling is not painted and has water stains on it. The toilet hisses and hisses all night long. The taps' washers should have been replaced a year ago. The room is also terribly small. At least the water was deliciously warm to bathe in, but no thanks - never again.
Awful, no air conditioning. Dirty. Grilled to touch something. definitely wouldn't recommend it to anyone driving a long way. Beds very uncomfortable, showering in bath is not pleasant at all, feels like you are going to step through the bath. We simply left the place at 04:00 in the morning because no one could sleep there. Hear everything that's going on next to you. Thanks, but no thanks
We would recommend The Resting Place Guesthouse. The whole guest house and garden are tidy, very safe.
Friendly service and cute place. The pool was great for the kids.
There is a Spar just across the street. The room was very nicely furnished for a family of 3. We will definitely use them again, even for a longer stay. It is really nicely furnished for a family of 3.
Everything works, the entrance gate, all kitchen equipment, everything. The accommodation offers value for money.
See the stars.
Excellent service and excellent facilities. Staff very helpful and friendly. Room was clean and very comfortable. We had a very nice stay. Thank you very much.
Will definitely make it my no. Make 1 accommodation in Bloemfontein!
See the stars below.
More than just accommodation is offered!
The management was helpful and the service was prompt. I had a wonderful stay. The guesthouse is close to everything we needed.
We were pleasantly surprised and had a great stay. The facilities were very clean and the service excellent!
We were a family of seven adults and one child who stayed here overnight. Their service is prompt and friendly and the rooms were well equipped. All that bothered me a bit was the 'extractor fan' in the bathroom which could not be switched off separately, so it was cold when you got out of the shower and mats in the bathroom would have helped a lot against the cold floor. Furthermore, everything was very pleasant and we would definitely recommend the guest house.
Have visited quite a few guest houses in Bloemforntein and this will now be the guest house of choice. Thank you very much for the pleasant stay.
See the stars below.
You have a beautiful place, quiet and very central - you will definitely see us again!
Great stay. Well equipped. Only points of criticism are that the bathroom sink is very small, the pool was not very clear, and that the duster is missing two knobs. But these are minor things and do not take anything away from the stay.
Completely satisfied with everything.
The Resting Place Guest House is a true place for relaxation and rest in a peaceful and safe environment. The best guest house we have ever been to. Highly recommended!!
Friendly reception, neat and spacious room for us and the kids. Lovely pool for the kids to enjoy, and accommodation well situated near Mimosa Mall. Enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it!
A regular customer and I always have a nice stay and I enjoy the hospitality. Thank you very much.
A wonderful, peaceful atmosphere with the friendliest people. The rooms are beautifully furnished and very private. The view of the garden leaves a peace in your soul after a long drive. Great was my surprise with the coffee and cremora in the room: just the way I like my coffee. Had a wonderful stay and slept well. 100%
This is definitely the place to spend the night between Gauteng and Cape Town. Thank you very much!
The showers were uncomfortable, but the hot water was "great".
Accommodation was very neat and clean. The staff could be a little friendlier.
There is nothing negative that can be said. It is neat and the service was very professional. They go out of their way to help us.
The accommodation is neatly close to UV. Neat clean and value for money!
Surprised at the amount of birds there and enough shade in this hot weather. For someone who doesn't like a lot of noise, this is just the place! Pet friendly high on my list and found everything fine. Thank you very much!
See the stars below.
You just have to please sort out the roads' directions.
It was very nice, peaceful, clean and pleasant. We will stay there again in the future.
Pleasant stay, thank you.
Will recommend to friends!
See stars below
We had a nice stay. The place is a bit tight with 2 teenagers, but in our case we were out all day. We only slept there, so everything was perfect. The braai area allows one to live outside, which is very nice. There is little cupboard space, especially with a view to self-catering (no cupboard for food etc.), but overall it was very positive, and we will stay there again!
Clean and tidy accommodation with friendly staff. Recommended to friends and acquaintances!
We used the phone's GPS and finally got to the place.
There isn't much I can mention because I was so disappointed when there was no power that I didn't sleep at all and I was dead tired the next morning. I might as well have driven through and avoided the place. We spent the night there that night and at 10:00 pm the power went out until the morning when we had to drive. I could only locate 1 short candle for light, which didn't help much. We couldn't heat food, or bathe. The fridge defrosted and our food was spoiled. None of the contact numbers answered. It was a terrible night because it was hot and if you open the windows and doors, the mosquitoes eat you up.
See the stars below.
We don't know Bloemfontein. As a result, we were not aware of the street names that had changed. The exit from the N1 is still indicated under the old name. We struggled to find the guest house on the mobile as well as the landline for directions, and the people we asked along the way could not help us.
There is too little sleeping space. Only a double bed for 3 people connected with a room that needs serious renovation and no towels. All of the aforementioned led to an unpleasant experience.
The rooms were wrongly booked. The bill was also wrong. It is not very clean, but at least the reception was friendly.
See the stars below.
Very beautiful and hospitality is good; will always stay there again.
This was the third time we have stayed there and every time it is worth it.
We have no complaints. We enjoyed the time, the service was friendly and professional, and the breakfast was delicious.
It was lovely, and we enjoyed our stay at The Resting Place Guesthouse.
Our first time in Bloemfontein and our accommodation was welcoming after a long drive. I would recommend The Resting Place Guest House to anyone. Lovely gardens and rooms. Thank you.
We have been there twice now, once with my husband and adult children and grand children for my mom's funeral. This time it was me, my brother and sister in-law for my other brothers birthday. Both times we've enjoyed staying here.
Good, neat and peaceful accommodation.
The accommodation was very pleasant and ideal for our trip to the sea.
Beautiful units with a peaceful atmosphere. Convenient for people with children and animals.
The room was spacious and clean. Convenient for our family
Will definitely stay there again. Accommodation is very clean and tidy. Just what one needs for an overnight stay. Great bath!
Value for money. Quiet, safe environment.

1. Booked a room with two single beds and on arrival heard it was a double bed. Moves were then made, thank you very much. 2. The bathroom is then not in the room, but across the hall. 3. The window of the room could do with a wash. 4. The room door's locks are very old and hard to close. 5. Linen was very clean, thank you very much.
Accommodation is value for money. That's what you need when you know you just want to sleep and then you're going to be gone.
The room was clean and the bedding too. The bathroom could be improved (as there is an opening between the wall and window to the room area). The toilet roll holder is installed in an awkward location. The parking area is good and I felt my car was parked safely.
We slept in a large room that could easily fit three people. It's neat, spacious and just what we needed for two nights. Thank you!
Even though we let the establishment know in advance that we would be arriving late, we were told that we should just phone again when we arrive. We tried, but there was no one there to let us into the gate. I think one of the guests eventually opened the gate for us. There was no answer on any of the numbers advertised. So my main issue with this was: do not say 27/7 reception available, if you do not provide it!!

Very neat and good value for money. Nice close to everything.
The location is very good and peaceful. Future guests should note that parking is a challenge for those driving bakkies or with trailers.
The bedding is clean, the unit needs a lot of TLC, especially the bathroom. Other units may be different, price-wise you can't expect otherwise.
Not great. A number of things were wrong and the general attitude was too casual. The directions we received were incorrect. The unit was cramped and needs a coat of paint. The fridge was noisy and the bright lights outside shining between the curtains kept the kids awake.
Wonderful guesthouse. Great value for money, beautiful gardens and wonderful service. Will certainly be back.
Our one night stay at The Resting Place was just what we needed after a 10 hour trip - a good shower and a comfortable bed after a welcome reference to a good restaurant. Keep it up!
Great customer service, cleanliness and value for money.
