134 guests' feedbackVery pleasant and helpful owners.
Lovely and quiet and very beautiful. We got a warm welcome from the owners, and they are such lovely people.
The two most amazing hosts any traveller can dream of. From the moment you arrive till the moment you leave, they look after all your wishes and do all sorts of small, unnecessary things that you don't expect, but that mean a lot. We can't wait for our next visit to Prince Albert, but more so to the hosts.
Biomeke environment. Nice garden.
The hosts went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They even arranged a dinner booking. We traveled by motorcycle, and they kept me updated on the impending storm, which allowed us to make it just in time. Breakfast was great.
My mother and I had a wonderful stay. The hostess went out of her way to make us as comfortable as possible. We will definitely go back again.
Jude is a delightful host and we thoroughly enjoyed our (too short) stay with her while in Prince Albert.
Neat, clean and safe overnight accommodation with a great viewing/relaxing deck and a wholesome breakfast to set us on our way (not included in the price but worthwhile). Thank you for all the chats, making our dinner reservations, and all the information on Prins Albert. Your hospitality was exceptional.
Very comfortable and clean. Exactly what we expected as per the description and pictures. Thank you.
Room was comfortable, neat and clean. The reception by the host and hostess was very friendly.
It was awesome, we really enjoyed our stay.
Wonderful places well located to just walk and see the wonderful eateries and small shops in Prince Albert. Of course nice to sleep on the way back or to the coast. Neat, clean, everything you need to sleep comfortably. Did I mention the places have air conditioning!
Would love to visit Travelers Rest again.
The tranquility and friendliness of the owners go hand in hand. They make sure that you are comfortable and give enough space to view the surroundings. There is even a "viewing deck!" It is clear that this place was developed with passion and it speaks volumes in the cleanliness of the rooms and garden. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family and look forward to returning! Well done to Jude and Brian on your beautiful establishment.
Wonderful hospitality and helpfulness from Jude and Bryan. Will definitely come back here again.
Only criticism would be that the walls of the apartments are very thin. Could hear every word neighbours were saying in bed!
Excellent accommodation, great location and our hosts were terrific. Wonderfully friendly and we'll definitely visit again.
I will definitely keep going there in the future.
Lovely, clean, beautiful and fabulous.
Excellent hosts, lovely overnight facility.
Everything we needed provided by a delightful couple in a beautiful garden setting with wonderful sunset views. Walking distance to great cafes.
Hostess and her husband are very friendly. Go out of their way to make an effort for their guests. Would definitely recommend to anyone to stay there.
We really enjoyed our 1 night stay over. Prince Albert is a beautiful friendly town. Jude and Brian are the perfect hosts, and made us feel completely at home. The breakfast was superb and our dietary requirements were willingly catered for. Will definitely be back for longer next time. Thanks.
Great accommodation and hospitality is in itself a recommendation for future travel and travellers.
Parking is a bit of a problem. Especially if all 4 rooms will be full. Very interesting town with interesting people and attractions. I would recommend anyone to stay at least 2 nights there.
Would definitely recommend. More clear signage is needed.
Made to feel very at home and good value for money.
Thank you so much Jude and Bryan for the beautiful, peaceful stay you have created. Very clean and tidy accommodation. Your friendly and helpful service is appreciated.
The rooms and bathrooms are very neat. The owner goes out of her way to make you comfortable. Comfortable beds and the most beautiful view of Prince Albert on the platform.
Would definitely recommend.
My brothers and I spent the night here as part of our bike trip in the Western Cape. The rooms were beautiful and very comfortable, the breakfast excellent. We will definitely stay here again.
Good location. The accommodation had everything we needed.
Thank you very much for the extra effort with the microwave. Very clean, lovely place to hang out outside. I could walk the whole village flat from there.
Friendly hospitality from owners was very special and will definitely stay there again.
First time we have been there and will recommend it to friends and hope to go there again.
They suggested and booked supper for us on arrival. Great advice about things to do in and around Prince Albert. There is a stunning deck where we could sit and enjoy the beautiful views and sundowners!
The rooms at Travellers Rest are very comfortable and clean - each with a lovely en-suite bathroom that each has a huge shower. The rooms are stylishly and meticulously maintained. Add to that the excellent and friendly service from the owners and you have a winner!
Bryan and Jude are very friendly.
Very nice.
We were at Travelers Rest for the second time in a year. They provide good service and the rooms are comfortable, clean and provide everything one might need. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you very much.
I did a solo road trip with my motorcycle and entered Prince Albert via the Swartberg Pass after rain. Had a good night's sleep after all that stress!
Enjoy a very nice breakfast before we leave.
Really a lovely establishment with friendly hosts. We will definitely be back for another visit.
The name is quite appropriate: after a long day traveling it was really nice to be able to rest in such a place. The tranquility and calm atmosphere was heavenly.
We were kindly received and the room is neat and clean. We recommend it for sure!
Great people and great place to stay. Always willing to help and assist where needed. Going the extra mile.
Jude and her husband, Bryan, spare no effort to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The grounds and tidy room facilities are ideal for tranquility and privacy. Breakfast is tasty and the company contributes to a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere.
Room and bathroom clean and tidy. Hostess and owner Jade very friendly and helpful. In the room was a kettle, coffee, tea, sugar, milk and home-baked buttermilk biscuits. Garden tidy. General meeting area very cozy with stairs for a beautiful sunrise and view of the town.
Jude and Bryan are awesome!
Shower floor soapy, dangerous for old people even if there is a small rubber mat. Short mesh in front of windows so that one can sleep with windows open. The coffee is terrible.
It was very cozy at Travelers Rest.
It was very nice.
Very pleasant owners who do their best. Would love to make a fire while we watch the evening stars. However, understand the owners' motivation.
Very friendly owners, aircons in the rooms, incredibly neat and simple. Would highly recommend, good sleeping facilities and on the high street.
Cute place, nice people.
Generous reception by Bryan. Room neat and spacious. Shower facilities especially. One can also relax outside on furnished deck. We were able to enjoy dinner with the help of Jude's arrangements. The hostess makes a first class breakfast. Prince Albert is worth a visit - specifically the affordable accommodation at Travelers Rest.
The establishment is run professionally and Jude is a great host.
Very friendly and helpful reception. Lovely little place away from the street. Has everything you need... even a nice porch to sit on. Everything was beautifully neat and of good quality.
We had a great time at Travelers Rest, the place is perfectly located and the room has everything you could need, the owners are very friendly and happy to help make you feel as at home as possible. I definitely recommend.
We have been there before and will definitely visit again.
Jude and Bryan are very nice people and go out of their way to make you feel as comfortable as possible. It's home away from home.
Very clean and friendly.
We were warmly welcomed and Jude and Bryan created a wonderful space where you can relax nicely and sleep comfortably.
Excellent value for money.
Friendly owners and nice.
We were quite surprised with the hospitality. Rooms very nice.
Very helpful and goes the extra mile to make your stay enjoyable. Rooms very clean and are replenished every morning with new towels and necessities such as coffee etc.
We loved our stay at Travellers Rest. Jude and Brian were wonderful hosts. Clean and uncluttered rooms. Lovely big shower. Gorgeous garden. Delicious home-cooked breakfast.
Beautiful, neat room with a heater for the cold Winter months. The room overlooks a lovely garden and the accommodation is within walking distance of the local restaurants. Service was of excellent quality and they serve a delicious breakfast.
Jude and her husband waited for us as if we were coming home. Thank you very much. We will definitely visit again.
The room and bathroom are spacious with a nice veranda overlooking the karoo garden. The owners are very friendly and helpful and helped to make the visit there very enjoyable.
Jude and Brian are excellent hosts. They have built a beautiful facility all by themselves. A remarkable achievement. Hospitality is their forte. Super clean and comfortable. Every detail is thoughtfully provided.
Exceptional, neat accommodation. Air-conditioning was great at 41°C.
Pleasant, comfortable and clean accommodation. Friendly and caring host and hostess.
Accommodation clean and tidy. Peaceful garden. Owners very friendly.
Very basic, very good overnight stay.
Jude was a wonderful host. Rooms were comfy. Free rusks topped up every day. Aircon in room was a bonus.
Delicious pocket-sized accommodation in the warm Karoo. Warm and enthusiastic welcome. Really recommend it for any tourist or traveler.
Fantastic, beautiful and clean, friendly people.
This was my second time here and I will definitely go back again. It's like home away from home. Jude and Bryan are absolutely fantastic and friendly and no effort is spared to make your time comfortable and enjoyable. Thanks Bryan and Jude! We'll see you again soon!
Beautiful village with lots of hospitality. The hosts make a lot of effort for their guests. Great!
Pleasant room with lovely garden view. Friendly welcome by hosts Jude and Bryan and a great full house breakfast at reasonable cost.
Clean and comfortable room, good quality bedding and finishes in our room, didn’t miss TV at all. Very friendly owners, made us feel so welcome.
A beautiful, clean and tidy setup. Jude made us feel so welcome and made a lot of extra effort to make our stay as pleasant and enjoyable as possible.
It was a pleasure to be guests of Jude and Bryan.
They helped us with arrangements and make bookings at restaurants for us. They have a beautiful deck with an expansive view of the Karoo. It is purely B&B ─ no braai of cooking facilities. But that's not a problem because there are various restaurants within walking distance.
Everything was just right, very hospitable owners who immediately made us feel very much at home.
Very friendly owners. Had a wonderful breakfast with ingredients they make themselves. Recommended a very good place to eat for dinner.
Accommodation is very neat and clean. Reception is very friendly and makes you feel at home immediately. The only problem is the parking space is very tight.
I enjoyed staying at this place, the owners are very friendly. I would go back anytime.
Die gasheer en gasvrou was baie aangenaam en ons is soos ou vriende uitmekaar. Ek kan sien dat hulle baie trots is op hul woonstelletjies. Alles was puik, storte, beddens, beddegoed. Storte baie netjies, mens het niks meer nodig as jy daar oorbly nie. Lieflike tuin voor die huisies.
We were 3 pairs of friends and found the accommodation good. The owners were very friendly and hospitable and quickly made you feel at home and at ease in the Karoo village. The accommodation is conveniently close to shops and restaurants and we would use it again. It is ideal for an overnight stay and can definitely be recommended.
The rooms are tidy and the friendly hostess goes out of her way to make sure you have everything you need. Beautiful deck where you can sit quietly and watch the stars. The only shortcoming is small fridge in room, although hostess asked if she could put anything in fridge for us.
The fresh Karoo air was great.
Hugely impressive facilities with everything imaginable available. Owner was very supportive to arrange for good dinner in town.
The room is beautiful and the air conditioner was great in the hot town. You can make coffee in the room, and Jude offered to store our things in the fridge. The Parkrun is safe, but the whole town is safe, we just walked to the restaurant that evening. It's located on the main street, so it's close to all the restaurants and shops, you can literally walk everywhere. The visiting area and "viewing deck" are also lovely, especially when it has cooled down a bit at sunset. Room has a nice big shower, free WiFi, and has a built-in USB point to charge your phone.
Fantastic service. Jude and Brian were phenomenal host and hostess.
We had such a great time, the rooms were very neat, and the owners were very friendly and hospitable! Ideal place to stay with a nice patio outside for a cup of coffee and a patio above for stargazing.
We were welcomed on arrival by Jude, the hostess. The owners are very proud of their accommodation. The room is neat, spotless, comfortable and looks brand new. It is clear that no effort has been spared in furnishing the rooms. The room's view is on a neat Karoo garden. The courtyard sitting area between the rooms is a lovely wind-sheltered corner for a cocktail. Feel free to chat with owners to hear their story. Jude also booked us dinner at "The Gallery" after contacting us on the way for dinner arrangements. Smart thought, as the restaurant was fully booked. An overall fantastic experience.
Perfect for a weekend breakaway. Lovely place to stay, comfortable beds, nice big shower. Would suggest adding a bar fridge in the room.
We were surprised by the absolute cleanliness and friendly, professional reception. Value for money. We didn't miss a TV and could enjoy the Karoo's silence.
Very friendly welcome by Brian and Jude, pleasantly surprised with accommodation, nice garden and very nice to sit on the top deck and wait for the sunrise.
Will certainly return and look forward to it.
See stars.
Beautiful clean place. Friendly hostess. Will stay there again for sure.
I would recommend this wonderful happy stay to everyone! Very well-appointed clean rooms. Very friendly hosts Jude Bryan and Mr Darcy the Irish Wolfhound. The best breakfast ever! Do yourself a favour!
Absolute stunning place to stay - very friendly owners - a must to stay when you are in Prince Albert!
Best value for money in Prins Albert!
For anyone staying I would advise to give it a try. We were received very kindly and the hospitality was unsurpassed.
We were impressed with the accommodation. We were very warmly received by a friendly, chatty hostess. She and her husband certainly enjoys what they are doing and the accommodation is peaceful, safe and very clean. Would've liked to stay longer, but maybe next time.
Jude and Bryan are lovely people, eager to serve and make guests feel at home. Their lodging is absolutely stunning. We will definitely be back.
Value for money, in an otherwise expensive town. Well located. Very neat and well equipped units.
Very friendly and helpful owners, although we would prefer service in Afrikaans. Pre-booked a place for us in a restaurant of our choice on our own initiative.
Very clean and tidy accommodation. Very safe and friendly people.
Neat, affordable and friendly, effective service. Highly recommend.
Everything we needed was available. Hosts very nice people.
Very friendly reception, Judy made us feel very welcome. Will definitely stay there again and recommend friends.
See the stars.
Travelers Rest is definitely good value for money. All we missed was a small ice-freezer in the unit.
Even though we didn't spend much time there we got some great rest among the fruit trees. Try Jude's home made preserves she makes from oranges etc.
Real Karoo hospitality, neat rooms with attention to fine detail such as a generic mobile phone charger, air conditioning and all the other standard things. The breakfast was delicious!
Friendly and tidy with good location.
Judy and Bryan are lovely people whom would do anything to make their guests feel at home. The rooms were comfortable, neat and well equipped. We really enjoyed it.
We only stayed one night and were impressed with how the owners welcomed us, as well as the beautiful work they did on the units.
We had trouble finding the address, street name does not appear on GPS or on town map. Hosts could have communicated this problem and avoided our search through town. Room offers the very basic amenities. Location a bit far from the central town for walking. Parking area inconvenient.
Thank you very much for the wonderful visit and stay. Owners were absolutely the friendliest hostess and host we encountered on our tour!
Everything one can ask for! The room was large, clean and comfortable. Little personal touches like bottled water and wine at cost price, did not go unnoticed. The best part of a lovely stay (too short ) was the warm friendliness of our host and hostess. Thank you Brian and Judith. As my wife told you it was the best breakfast she ever had.
Warm, friendly welcome on arrival. All facilities available. Town sites, eateries well explained. Lovely and friendly owners. Will advise friends to stay.
Had a good stay.
See the stars.
See stars.
Owner very friendly and helpful. Travellers Rest is well equipped to live up to the image it strives to portray. It's practical, beautiful and clean. Even though not self catering, a bar fridge in each room as well as a braai area would benefit guests.
Friendly and helpful owners. Beautiful new rooms equipped with everything you need.
There is no TV and an evening can be long as there is not much to do on Prince Albert. We also missed a fridge. The parking is inconvenient and in full sun.
