Kimberley Club Guesthouse

Excellent staff. Food was very good.

Food took extremely long to arrive and more than half the menu items were not available. Dirty table cloth. Frayed towel edges. Mismatched light bulbs. Overly bright bar and dining room which is not conducive to good atmosphere. Booking confusing as we wanted a double bed but were given two singles. Establishment is in serious need of maintenance. This was our second visit (first was 10 years ago) and the place has really taken a dive. We won’t be back as we were very disappointed.

Sense of history

The driving to and from the property, though once there everything was safe and secure

Has potential a bit run down carpets horrible

Just upgrade a bit

Friendly staff

Very difficult to find in the dark. Unsafe area. Our steaks were of a poor quality.

Kimberley Club is beautiful old style with such a history. We loved the wide passages and incredible pieces of furniture as well as all the old pictures. The room was very comfortable with good linen and everything we needed, good lighting as well charging facilities. Safe parking across the street.

The location is not great but as the Clubhouse was built 140 years ago no one ever expected that one day it might stand in the middle of of a very neglected Kimberley.

The history

There was VERY loud music through the night until 5:00. Could not sleep

The food was good. The club location was not the best, but the building and garden are lovely

The dining area and bar areas were very brightly lit and that spoilt the ambiance of this magnificent old club. The central air conditioning was set to very warm and it was unable to be adjusted to a cooler temperature

The old fashioned and historical ambience of the place, the wonderful staff, great food in the restaurant and comfortable, relaxing feel. The courtyard was especially nice in the afternoon sun.

This is a very old building (from 1881) and does need a bit of attention.
