It was a lovely stay and even better because we could watch the Springboks win.
We always have a great stay at the Transkaroo Country Lodge. It's well located, quiet, tidy, safe and wonderful to enjoy the 'old world glamour'. What makes it even better is the nice restaurant on the ground floor with the most delicious home cooking. In addition, the staff is also friendly and helpful. Overnight at the TCL makes the way home shorter! Thank you again for a nice stay.

Highly recommendable! Neat, beautiful and safe with great service.
Transkaroo Country Lodge is a small oasis in the otherwise run-down town of Britstown. It was the ideal place for us to stay as it was exactly halfway between the Cape West Coast and our home in Pretoria. We had a great time relaxing at the beautiful pool area. The decor is tasteful and it almost felt as if we were visiting somewhere in a villa in France. The service was very friendly and top notch. The owner came to check in personally when we reported a problem with the TV and WiFi. The secure parking allowed us to sleep peacefully. I have already recommended the lodge to friends who will soon be driving that route and we will definitely stop there again when we go in that direction. 10/10, thank you very much.

Lots of potential, currently some shortcomings.
The reception was very cordial. The dinner served was superb. Unfortunately, the air conditioner in the room did not work. The windows were opened which unfortunately let the mosquitoes in. So there was little chance for sleep. The toilet wouldn't flush and leaked. This is quite a big problem.

Sufficient.
For a quick something to eat, and a quiet place for the evening it is sufficient. Very friendly staff and very helpful. Wooden floors are certainly not always easy, they make a lot of noise. We had to turn on all the lights in the seating areas and corridors ourselves when we arrived. The atmosphere was a bit cold on the top floor and in the room. The restaurant is beautiful and the food is delicious.

Ons is jammer dat julle nie water gehad het nie, dis ongelukkig 'n dorpsprobleem. As ons nie ons spaartanks volkry nie, kan ons nie rugsteun water voorsien nie. Ons is jammer oor die ongelukkigheid en hoop om volgende keer beter te doen.

Three beds in normal size room of which 2 were double and one single. Bathroom toilet seat broken. Bath and shower difficult to use, impossible to open taps without getting wet. Bathroom so small that a special small door was inserted. No seat in room. Bedside lamp did not work but was replaced. Leave carpets in hallways that can cause people to fall. Had to carry bags myself no help from staff. Security guard later helped for a tip.

The food was some of the best and especially the rump steak that was served to me was definitely a winner, the meat was tender and juicy and well prepared. The courtyard was our 'hangout' where we enjoyed a cup of coffee. We will definitely use your services again.

Oasis, but dinner is disappointing.
Very surprised with the lodge, in the middle of a town of almost nothing. Excellent and friendly service. Safe car security. Was only disappointed by the lamb chops with dinner. Didn't choose the buffet with leg of lamb (couldn't see the buffet price on the menu - maybe overlooked). Chops were completely overcooked and almost hard. Not sure why they asked how I wanted it done as chops were so thin they could have flash fried them to get them medium. Quality not great either. Makes one wonder about all the fantastic Karoolam stories. Also serve on the slow side at dinner. Not sure what happens if there are more than 7 people. But otherwise everyone was super friendly. And a clean pool would have been nice.

This compares to any R650 guest house. Some cheaper places even better.
The room is ordinary, at least expect wine glasses too, not just two bags of coffee and tea. Plastic teaspoons are certainly out of place for this price range. Had to ask for the air conditioner remote. The parking is now very secure, but is not easily accessible. Having to ask someone to unlock for you every time and walk 75/100 meters outside in the street to gain access? There is also no provision made for load shedding. Everything was pitch black when we wanted to leave at 06:00. The meal was very nice, but totally overdone and hopelessly overpriced. Payment is by weight and you only find out what it costs after you've finished loading and your plate is weighed. I did not create generously and my plate food was R250.00 (other half R230.00).

Satisfactory.
Firstly, there was only coffee for one time use, guesthouses provided as a rule coffee or tea to make two meals. According to the receptionist, breakfast is served from 7 o'clock, but staff do not come on duty until 7 o'clock, which therefore makes it impossible to prepare food and have it ready to serve guests at 7 o'clock. Dinner was excellent.

Reception was not very helpful, unfriendly, got no rest. Food is prohibitively expensive.
Reception lady was unfriendly and unhelpful, couldn't get any rest due to room sitting on the road and traffic noise all night and people noise in the street. Food and drinks are exorbitantly expensive. Food is weighed per plate so this means that you pay up to and including R300 and more for a plate of food if you want to eat decently. Service was poor, only got one toilet roll for 4 people. And bedding had stains on it and no pillowcases for some of the pillows. We were stuck parked and couldn't drive earlier, had to wait for the other customers to wake up to be able to move their vehicle. Toilet also had a leak.

We booked through the website. The photos are very misleading. Looking at the photos you expect the best. It's like a lean. First room when we got there (no. 36) was dirty and its door couldn't lock. We report the complaint, are moved to another room (no 35). The room has no cold water, only hot water. The toilet is out of order. The aircon is broken. The two single beds that should have been a double bed are long past their prime. Again we report it, (3 times). It is promised that they will look into it and make a plan around it. Nothing came of it. When I checked out and asked about it again, I was only told it was a crazy weekend. I would not recommend the place to anyone to sleep over.

Will never stay there again.
Receptionist does not greet and asks if she can help. Just want to know if we want to eat. Don't wear a mask. Was there after 2pm and couldn't confirm if the room is ready or not. If we wanted to eat we had to confirm immediately before we even went to the room even if it was from the menu. Apparently, cooks need to know how to stock up. Later, we go to eat and the whole town eats from the menu. So don't understand why we had to confirm on arrival. Air conditioner not working. Report but nothing is done or even apologized. One window could not open at all. Knip is broken. Sink takes 5 min to empty. No one told me that I could park inside. Parked on the street. Happy under room window. Only one glass in a double room. Restaurant staff at least friendly and helpful. However, hotel manager did not want to exchange chips with vegetables and had to pay extra for vegetables even though my wife did not want the chips.

Travelers have to wake up early and we decided to have breakfast at seven o'clock which is not a problem because the kitchen opens at seven o'clock. The kitchen staff didn't come in until half past ten. So we didn't hit the road until half past eleven.

A bit of Provence in the Karoo
A wonderful stay in a special hotel. The ambiance was like in southern Provence in France, the colors, the decorations, full of atmosphere. Good cuisine, pleasant service. Choose a room at the back due to traffic noise. Room and bathroom simple but good. Private parking.

Pleasant experience with nice people.
The only criticism I do have against Transkaroo is that their parking is a bit small. If the place gets a little full, vehicles must park on the street. I do have to add that they go out of their way to ensure that the vehicles are safe, and the person on duty for the evening patrols the street regularly. Was a truly pleasant experience and would have quite liked to stay a few nights. For those worried about the N12 passing the lodge, it didn't bother us one bit, and we couldn't hear the road traffic from our room.

It feels like you don't get a personal welcome when you book through LekkerSlaap here...? I could be wrong. We will test it by booking direct next time we visit again. You look at reception so askew....? The food was delicious and the service provided by Troi was excellent. The owner knows exactly what she is doing. Staff, especially in reception, can be looked at please.

Beautiful decor but the food and drinks are more expensive than we pay at a good restaurant in the city (Cape Town) - the location probably explains this in terms of transport costs but it was a bit excessive.

Die Backpackers kamers word gehou vir jong mense wat nie baie wil spandeer nie. Ons hou hulle dus so goedkoop as moontlik met net die nodigste daarin. Die tariewe daarvan is R250.00 per persoon, omdat die hotelgeriewe ook beskikbaar is. As die hotelkamers vol is, bied ons aan kliënte die keuse of hulle hierdie kamers wil gebruik.
Ons stem egter saam, dit was geweldig warm. Almal hier het maar swaar getrek!
Ons sal baie graag aan hierdie gaste ons hotelkamers wil bied met hul volgende besoek en aan hulle die ervaring gee dat Transkaroo ook lekker is om in te bly!

I was not impressed with the lodge. We drove 740 km from Alberton in the morning and were tired. Got there at 2:30 pm and there was no one to carry bags in. No one at reception. We found people in restaurant. The room was very dark. Lots of old furniture. Everything was tired. There was no welcome soft drink and the lady was quite shocked when I asked if breakfast was included. There is nothing included I feel R850 per night is a bit high. We paid R790 in a 3-star establishment with breakfast in Knysna, for a room overlooking the sea. I can see why there were 2 couples in lodge with us. I will not stay there again.

Goeie dag,
Dit is altyd 'n slegte verrassing om te sien as 'n gas teleurgesteld is. Ons is egter 'n hotel en nie 'n gastehuis nie. Daarom geen welkom drankies nie, aangesien ons wel 'n kroeg het. Ons het ook 'n 24 uur ontvangs diens. Ek glo die ontvangs dame was net vir n oomblik nie daar nie. Ons het geen tariewe van R 850.00 nie. Ons gee ons gaste 'n keuse tussen 3 soorte kamers. Ons adverteer ook dat geen etes ingesluit is nie. Ons sal wel ernstig werk aan hierdie opmerkings en dadelik kyk waar ons kan verbeter.

After a full day's driving it was like arriving at a lovely, cool oasis. The room with its air conditioning was stylishly furnished. The French feel that the owners have created with Transkaroo Country Lodge and the courtyard with its French flair together with the delicious food that can be ordered from the Deli, makes one wonder if you should not have booked for another night. The only criticism that can be made is the bathroom in the room, which really detracts from the beauty of the rest. The shower has e.g. a curtain that did not hang down to the ground. Despite this, we will stay here again next year.

Hotel experience
Transkaroo is ideal to sleep over for one night if you are lightly packed. The parking is a bit far from the reception to carry luggage back and forth. The decor is very nice and the food good. There is a choice between cheaper and more expensive accommodation - choose a little more expensive instead. At the cheaper accommodation, ablution facilities are shared with other guests and the rooms have no air conditioning, TV or WiFi. It is also located on a very noisy, busy road which means the noise is disturbing if the window is opened. (It doesn't feel very safe either).

Poor reception and arrangements for security of vehicles.
Upon arrival, reception was poor. Nothing extra in room. Arrangement for security of vehicle was bizarre! When I was told to park my vehicle, I mentioned that I was in the way of other vehicles and that after a very long drive I did not want to be woken up early the next morning to have to remove my vehicle. I was assured that this would not happen... I was woken up at 04:50 with the request to go and remove my vehicle: When I got to the gate, the gate was not even unlocked and I had to come back to to come looking for the staff member who asked me to remove vehicle. After this my rest was taboo... No apology, not "sorry" or anything... I think this is extremely poor service!

We really enjoyed our stay, there is absolutely nothing to complain about. Lovely atmosphere and interesting history to read!
What a lovely place to spend the night on the way to the Cape. We really wished we could have stayed longer and considered traveling the same way back to Johannesburg, specifically that we could spend the night again in the Transkaroo Country Lodge! We were treated like "royalty" and nothing was too much trouble for any of the friendly and helpful staff. All very convenient and we can definitely recommend it!

Halfway between Cape Town and Johannesburg on the quieter N12 is the most delightful surprise. The room was wonderfully cool and clean, but the best part is the delicious food and atmosphere in the courtyard. The ideal place to sleep!

Friendly service. Dinner excellent. Cold winter evenings.
We can recommend the Lodge in the summer, but in the winter it is very cold in Britstown and there are no electric blankets on the beds. The air conditioner is used to heat the room, which dries out the air and therefore causes a lot of discomfort. The dinner was indeed very tasty and real peasant food, as was the breakfast. The dining room is special and you can have a look at all the pickled fruits and jams for sale. We bought some of it and it tastes forward.
