  • "Charming, clean and welcoming"

    11 November 2019

    "Great stop over traveling Jhb to CTPlace was quaint, facilities more than comfortable, location convenient and safe."

  • "Central Karoo Sojourn"

    07 October 2019

    "The meals - breaskfast and dinner we requested were good. We stayed in the Swartberg self catering unit across the road which had an enclosed courtyard for our dogs - and a small braai area which we found to be well appointed and excellent. We found the accommodation clean and comfortable - good value for an overnight stay. We stayed for two nights due to a meeting on the Saturday."

  • "Hassle Free"

    25 June 2018

    "It was nice to have a problem free check in, after a long day's drive. The room was clean and tidy and felt more like being at home than in a guest house. Thank you for making our stay a good experience."

  • "Very Comfortable Accommodation"

    10 February 2018

  • "The welcoming attitude of the staff at Laingsburg Country Hotel Restaurantg"

    03 July 2017

    "Sadly Herambi was a disappointment. The welcome cool to say the least. We were put up in a suite across the road. We had asked for an evening meal & breakfast when we booked. Only to be told on arrival that the owner was too busy & to go to Wimpy.....luckily we found the Laingsburg Country Hotel Restaurant where we had superb service & food. The suite was cold though the beds comfortable. We'll not be staying ther again."

The house and garden are beautiful and the breakfast was great. Our only criticism is that our bed was incredibly hard. I would recommend herambi to anyone looking for accommodation in Laingsberg."

    09 December 2013

    "Beautiful guest house, great location, efficient staff, awesome breakfast."

  • "We are disappointed !"

    08 December 2013

    "A house in a quiet street with a nice garden, possibilities to sit outside and private parking-places.But the room was full with old funiture and the bed was really to small for 2 people. (about 1.5 m wide!)At the window there have been an street for ants. And when we take on the light, we habe seen that there are a lot of dead ants, even in the bed. The landlady must have known, that there have been an ant-pest. But when we have noticed that, only a black staffer was avaiable. We had slept in this room after killing the vermins with poisonous spray. No fun!! In the morming there was only the staff. The room was realy too expensive! 550 rand without breakfast. I have had a look in the other rooms next morning. There had been all the same facilities. On a plate outside was wirtten, Room 2pps.400 Rand.We have asked beforehand (e-mail) for the possibility for dinner in the evening, when we arrived. But we have gotten no answer from them.The town is only good for an overnight-stay! There is no reason for high prices.We are not satisfied and we never come back. The guest house is not recommendable!"
