It was a short stay, booked at short notice, but a great stay nonetheless.

The place was very close to where we needed to go. The staff was friendly and helpful with our needs. Definitely our place of choice for future Grahamstown visits. We were looking for schools for our boys!

Visiting arts festival for the weekend.

Given the key in the driveway with no directions to room or welcome info. No information provided regarding breakfast times or where breakfast is served. Didn't have breakfast. Only 1 towel provided although booked for 2. Only 1 coffee sachet provided and 1 drinking glass in room.

Colonel Graham Guesthouse 's response

Good day Angela, I do apologise for the service you received.
I had a meeting with my staff this morning, the lady who checked you in said that you asked for the key to your room whilst sitting in your car in the driveway and she assumed that you knew where your room was. We apologise again for this mistake made.
Regarding the towel, an extra set of towels was given to you and your partner when you met 1 of the staff members on the premises. This was told at the meeting as well, coffee for 1 and a drinking glass for 1, again we apologise profusely. The room was prepped for 1 guest and not 2, all human error.
We would've happily addressed the issues at the guesthouse when you checked in, if we had known.
As I recall, you did have my cell number when you called me early morning, as you wanted to check in before our usual check-in time, a quick call or message to me again would've solved all of the above, nevertheless, we are truly sorry for the unpleasant experience.

Baie gerieflik en luuks en skoon. Sal beslis weer daar bly.

Ons het in die nuwe deel gebly wat uitstekend geleë en super modern is. Alles wat mens nodig het en heerlik ruim. Die bed was fantasties en die balkon bied 'n ekstra ontspanarea. My enigste kritiek wat ek kan lewer is dat die hondjie van die bure baie lastig is en mens aanhoudend wakkerblaf. Ek stel voor dat die gastehuis die hondjie by die bure koop dat hy voortaan vir hulle kan wakkerblaf. Ek dink ook vir R1450 per nag behoort die ontbyt so bietjie meer om die lyf te hê, maar ek sal weer daar bespreek en gee die plek hoë punte.

Very comfortable and luxurious and clean. Will definitely stay there again.

We stayed in the new part which is excellently located and super modern. Everything you need and wonderfully spacious. The bed was fantastic and the balcony provides an extra relaxation area. My only criticism that I can make is that the neighbor's dog is very annoying and constantly wakes you up by barking. I suggest that the guest house buys the puppy from the neighbors so that he can wake them up from now on. I also think that for R1450 per night the breakfast should be a bit more substantial, but I would book there again and give the place high marks.

Loved the place. It feels like a home away from home.

Spacious rooms and loved the idea of a kitchen within the rooms. Great customer service.
