We stayed at Monte Cristo for one night only as we were travelling around South Africa and more’s the pity. The lady who owns the place and her team couldn’t have done more for us. We relaxed around the pool on arrival after travelling from Knysna and they brought us nibbles and drinks. We were a party of six: two... More

We stayed at Monte Cristo for 2 nights. The rooms are excellent. The hotel has around 8 rooms and all rooms are designed differently. The rooms are clean and very modern. The bathrooms are huge. But the best part are the hosts who make your stay so much comfortable. The options of breakfast are limited but the hosts were kind... More

as a frequent visitor to the Karoo, i was rather disappointed by this stay in Oudtshoorn. the guest house is in a quiet, leafy area with great views out to the mountains. the service was very attentive, but more so than required in our case, it was at times a little difficult to enjoy the tranquil setting, for the solicitous...

After paying in full for Oude Maul and then walking out (it was awful) I then searched 5 other guest houses and B & B's and was disapointed in them all. We then came accross this place which is a hidden gem. Fantastic clean and modern rooms, great personal service that really makes you feel welcome and want to write... More

We stayed here for two nights during our two week tour of South Africa and throughly enjoyed our stay. The rooms were immaculately clean and very well presented. We were amazed and very impressed by the hosts attension to every detail. Whilst the guest house is slightly out of the main town and Oudshoorn felt perfectly safe the owners very... More

We stayed in the Monte Cristo for one night only but, if we are ever visiting this area in the future, we will definitely stay here again. We are delighted to have the opportunity to finally leave a review. The B&B was newly opened and everything was fresh and immaculately presented. We stayed in one of the garden suites and... More

We stayed in this terrific guest for one night only but is was a great experience. The room we had was spacious, clean, modern with anything you need. There was even fresh milk in the fridge! The bed was enormous and very comfortable. The breakfast was great. I asked for baked beans with my English breakfast and the host managed... More

The temperature was 45 degrees c when we arrived so we were very grateful to have air conditioning in the room and also a swimming pool. Monte Christo is in a residential area about 1 km from the main street - secure parking. Very peaceful setting; helpful hostesses and good breakfast. Handy for kango caves, ostrich farms and R62.

Our party of 4 spent 2 nights in the pool rooms at Monte Cristo. This accommodation is amongst the best we have stayed in in South Africa. Fantastic rooms, very close to the pool, which was superb. Both staff and the owner were friendly and helpful, and added to our enjoyment in ways I don't think they had intended! Close... More
