Veilig, mooi en heerlike kos.

Ged het die eienaar ons persoonlik kom groet en lekker gesels. Hy het ook genoem dit raak raserig op Vrydag en Saterdag aande, wat ek ook gesien het op reviews. Ons het aandete bestel wat werklik heerlik was. Daar was heelwat lawaai, maar nie so erg dat ons nie kon slaap nie. Ged het ons die volgende oggend kom groet en is werklik 'n baie aangename persoon wat lekker kan gesels oor die geskiedenis van die dorp.

Safe, beautiful and delicious food.

Ged, the owner came to greet us personally and had a nice chat. He also mentioned that it gets noisy on Friday and Saturday nights, which I also saw on reviews. We ordered dinner which was truly delicious. There was a lot of noise, but not so bad that we couldn't sleep. Ged came to greet us the next morning and is really a very pleasant person who can enjoy talking about the history of the town.

Lekker oornag verblyf.

Ons verblyf was baie lekker en netjies skoon. Die restaurant wat geadverteer word in die hotel, bestaan egter nie meer nie.

Heeltemal gerieflik en bekostigbaar.

Plek was skoon en netjies en het karakter. Enigste nadeel is die kroeg wat tot na middernag lawaai maak, maar ons het geweet dat daar 'n kroeg is.

Totally convenient and affordable.

Place was clean and tidy and has character. Only downside is the bar which is noisy until after midnight but we knew there was a bar.

Decent overnight accommodation between Mpumalanga and Gauteng.

The accommodation was adequate given the purpose for which we stayed one night. That is, as an interim stopover. The environment is not the best, but the place was clean and tidy enough, with the host and hostess paying good attention to us and serving us with enough care. We found the historical items and portraits in the bar area and adjacent dining hall particularly interesting.

Was net 1 aand se oorslaap, maar sal nie weer daar bly nie.

Dis baie basies en primitief. Daar was nie eers teelepels om koffie te maak nie. Geen mikrogolfoond of klein yskassie nie. Wat 'n blessing dat ons by kon gaan eet. Ek verstaan dis 'n klein vervalle dorpie, maar by die kroeg kon hulle nie 'n Don Pedro of 'n Irish coffee maak nie!

Was only a 1 night stopover, but would not stay there again.

It's very basic and primitive. There weren't even teaspoons to make coffee. No microwave or small fridge. What a blessing that we could eat at. I understand it's a small dilapidated town, but at the bar they couldn't make a Don Pedro or an Irish coffee!

Very friendly and the accommodation very comfortable.

On our arrival we were greeted by the owner who very kindly showed us where to park our car which was conveniently by our room. We were shown the dining room which was very attractively set up with tables and pretty lighting strung up which made for good ambience. Coffee, sugar, Cremora was in the room and most welcome. One of the owners came to make sure we were comfortable and could go to the dining room at any time that suited us. When we went to the dining room we were asked if we would like a drink. We ordered wine and a cold drink and were shown the menu. We placed our order and the meal was very good. Unfortunately, being a Friday night, we were told some of the locals usually go to the bar for the evening. When we heard the noise of loud talking we were not happy as it disturbed our sleep and only went quiet at midnight. Being an elderly couple travelling around the country, we were very unhappy that no one had been there to quieten the crowd down. I believe the owners do not stay at the hotel anyway.

The Grey's Inn 's response

Good evening,

Thank you for your review, we value all our reviews and thank you for taking the time to let us see how did as hosts, We are pleased that you enjoyed the food and hospitality, but sorry about the noise from the bar. We usually put guests in rooms behind the restaurant where there is no noise, but if they are already booked then we have to make one of our other rooms available.

Good morning Zurelda,

Thank you for taking time to give us a review. Our apologies for the noise from the bar, when other rooms are available behind the restaurant (which cuts out the noise) we put guests there, but as we were fully booked except for the one room we were unable to give you any other room.

For a one stop, this was ideal. Clean, comfortable and safe parking. Meals very good and reasonably priced.

This was an ideal stopover for us as it was half way to our destination back home. Proprietor and family were truly very welcoming, nothing too much trouble. Room very comfortable, meals good quality. Location marked as 5 star in error. I would give it 3 star as the location is not that good, but once inside the complex, it is quite safe and clean. Actually a very interesting complex.

Many thanks Ged, Barbs and Mike Crawford.

We could not have stayed in nicer accommodation for our last night in SA. The hosts are charming and went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. The rainbow trout we bought locally was beautifully cooked for dinner and breakfast by Mike the chef.

Lekker gekuier.

Die hotel kan miskien raserig wees vir iemand wat stilte verkies. Die kothuis is dan die opsie. Ons verblyf en etes was nooit enige moeite vir Mike en Kathryn nie. Sal definitief weer gaan kuier.

The hotel can maybe be noisy for someone who prefers a more quiet environment. The cottage is an option then. Our accommodation and foot was never any effort for Mike and Kathryn. Wil definitely visit again.
