Guest Reviews

• Lerato (4/5): My stay was just ok. - I love the friendliness of the staff; the owner, the husband, and the wife were friendly and accommodating. The place was nice and quiet, safe and away from noise. I wish we could have been informed that breakfast was only cereals, not an English breakfast. Cereals are not my favorite at all. Overall, the cleanliness of the house needs to improve, especially the kitchen and tea room. No hand soap in the bathroom.
• Luthuli (3/5): Unwelcomed guests. - The location was near the football grounds They were not honest about the breakfast in the booking.com info tab otherwise I would have booked another venue if they had been honest. They didn't want us to use the blankets in the room saying it's for special guests not us. They only gave us half the closet to use because they their own personal belongings were in the other half closet. On the advert it appeared to be accommodation separate, however on arrival it was a room within in their house, there was no fridge we had to ask for space in their fridge, no separate entrance so weren't given keys to the accommodation. We felt very unwelcomed.
• Olga-Jane (6/5): -
• Joané (8/5): -
• John (9/5): -
• Rodger (9/5): 2 time at location - Great hosts and comfortable room
• Peter Andrews (6/5): -
• Peter (10/5): Very relaxing Home from Home! - We really enjoyed our stay with Bart and Christa, who were SO lovely and friendly! Nora and wee Roxy were great too! The gardens are extensive and SO beautiful. The area feels safe and secure. If you want a super relaxing break, then this is it!! It is truly, a home from home and great value for money!! We would highly recommend it!! Xxx We wouldn't change anything!!
• Leanne (9/5): Was very homeley and friendly.and we loved the little yorkie made us feel at home. - Breakfast was excellent.Bed was very comfortable.and the room caterd for the cold weather .
• WazirD (8/5): - Location No TV
• Frederick (8/5): Welcoming - The facility is okay Breakfast was exoexting fruirs and eegs for protein in take
• Lilly (10/5): Nice place,I would love to go again - Safety and cleanliness None
• Tobler (5/5): Keine Übernachtung für Europäer, wäre weiter gegangen auf die Suche nach Komfortablerem - Das Bett; heisses Wasser in der Dusche; freundliche Vermieter Nur kaltes Frühstück: Brot und Cereals; kaltes Zimmer (keine Heizmöglichkeit, da kaltes, nasses Wetter); laute andere Gäste von 4 Uhr morgens an; an einer lauten Strasse ab 5 Uhr Wochentags;
• Kapiwe (4/5): -
• Monyamate (6/5): - The only thing I liked about At the View is the quietness of the location its very relaxing and the mountain view itself was great. I didn't like the fact that we were locked up at 9 pm whereby for us we are people who wanted to go outside at night and look at the night view of the stars, but we couldn't and we were shouted at the first night just for stepping out of our room not knowing that would trigger the alarms and yet when we got there Bart told us if we needed anything at night we should just knock on his door but when we did that he came out and shouted at us for knocking at his door, which was totally unnecessary, it just felt too much like a prison. The fact that they didn't have the required ingredients in house for the english breakfast was just not good too, and the swimming wasn't clean.😑
• Hannelie (10/5): -
• Elizer (10/5): - People are friendly, quiet, no noise, always greeting n/a
• Johnson (10/5): - The scenery of the outside and I loved how quiet it is here u can hear all sorts of different animals. The hospitality was great ,made you feel like family. Its very beautiful here in kloofendal. Will definitely come here again. There's really nothing bad about being here.
• Ronald Leach (8/5): All good, value for money - Its is clean, well situated, safe and secure. Staff is very friendly and the makes one feel valued Rooms just need a tv
• Riaan (10/5): Overall, a really pleasant experience that I would happily recommend. - Great stay, the place was clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.
• Vieira (8/5): - It was very comfortable and we felt at home The beds were comfortable and warm The room was a little small
• Letlhogonolo (7/5): Peaceful and warm welcome by host. Value for money - Its a self preparation setup , with variety of breakfast food items. If you there for a retreat , thats the place . I could not locate micro oven. Directional signage would do justice. My stay was business related and dependent on time
• Ferrero (10/5): - I read a review prior to booking which said a home away from home. I definitely agree. Most comfortable.
• MUFUNWA (10/5): Thanks a lot, i don't regret my decision of staying at the view b&b . - The place is so quiet 24/7 hot water Security The way the house is so clean The breakfast was amazing and the wasn't a day that I'll wake up and find something is not there in the breakfast list ,, everything was well prepared in time. The owners are so kind,lovely and approachable I felt like i was at home because the love and daily motivation i was given.. they made my two weeks amazing. The art in the house , the view outside The room had everything that i needed And there is a cleaner , she was like my auntie to me The owner were playing the role of being mommy and daddy Thank you for everything ,my two weeks was amazing Nothing, everything was well

• Pfarelo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Debbie (10/5): The owner is very nice and the go out of their way to give you the best - Breakfast was very nice We stayed in the house, but that were our choice when we made the booking, it is a B & B and not a guesthouse.
• Paula (8/5): Very good - The sunshine. The little dog that kept me company. Location. The room was spacious with a couch to sit on. Friendly hosts. Close enough to Clearwater Mall. The room could have smelt fresher. I found the single bed more comfortable than the double one.
• Besselaar (7/5): Good -
• Adkins (10/5): Pleasant Stay At the View - Friendly hosts and quiet environment perfect for business travelers looking for a home away from home. N/A
• Rodger (10/5): Exceptional - From the moment we arrived we were made welcomed, great host and always willing to help if needed Nothing to report here
• Veronique (10/5): Great value for money! - Great value for money! Bart and Christa were excellent hosts. At The View B&B truly feels like a home away from home. The only small issue was the flickering hallway light—perhaps just a bulb that needs changing. Other than that, I really enjoyed my stay and will definitely be back!
• Edmond (10/5): Exceptional - We were made to feel welcome on arrival. We felt very at home within hours, very friendly couple. We had only booked in for 2 days but stayed for 4 days, only left as our friends wanted us to stay with them. Little dog, Roxie, was a darling, so friendly and didn't mind getting cuddled. Nothing to dislike
• Krubavathi (8/5): Homely comfort - The warm reception, caring host Not applicable

• Law (3/5): Poor -

• Bornman (10/5): We were received with such warmth. The owners are great people -
• Maake (5/5): The house is big enough and view of the mountain is lovely. - the breakfast was fine, we opted for cereal, three different cereals were available. the place was quiet and peaceful. the owners are friendly. Was disappointed that the owners stayed with us in the house, the routine of an alarm system was restricting our movements, we paid extra money for cleaning, but our rooms were not cleaned daily. the standard of cleanliness was poor, there was dust, it looked like the there were no touch ups done before the guest arrived.
• Nozuko (10/5): It was very peaceful exactly what I needed - I liked the peace of mind I had and the fact that the owners are Christians that was a bonus for me The fact that breakfast was cereal 🥣
• Susan (7/5): Good - Friendliness
• Dariusz (6/5): Pleasant -
• Nigel (9/5): Always friendly, helpful and accommodating. - I find this venue suits my needs for what I require I didn't ask about the Wi Fi, so not sure there was like the last time I stayed. I did however try the old password but I think they have changed the router.
• Regan (8/5): Very good -
• Bonbon (1/5): Wrong advertising - Nothing Sleeping in the same house with the family. English breakfast not looking good.
• Adiel (7/5): Good -
• Tsakani (8/5): Very good - The environment The fact that I was booked in an upstairs room
• Lindelwa (10/5): I recommend this place - Everything is perfect there i love the place I will visit again breakfast was nice the owners are very lovely people Nothing wrong with the place
• Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
• Danca (8/5): I enjoyed my stay at the view B&B - Hospitality of the staff Nothing
• Ettienne (2/5): There is a curfew where the owner arms the alarm at 9 and you can’t go out, which is bad for smokers and anyone who want - There is a curfew where the owner arms the alarm at 9 and you can’t go out, which is bad for smokers and anyone who wants to go out during the night. The manual gate means you have to get out of your car each time you arrive at the property to open the gate.
• Amanda (10/5): Home away from home - Hospitality was great and we had privacy. The bathroom was clean, bed was comfortable and the breakfast was amazing None
• Saskia (10/5): Amazing Place and People - Amazing hosts and staff. Everything was very neat, clean and organised. I stayed for a month and I thoroughly recommend staying here !
• Tebello (10/5): Great - The house features were antique and clean Nothing
• Fred (10/5): Very much satisfied - Excellent stay No issues
• Kevin (7/5): Good -
• Matšotšo (5/5): A short stay at Kloofendal - The view and the location of the house is very beautiful. One can walk to the nearest Nature Reserve. The cereal provided for breakfast is really appreciated given the price paid. It is thoughtful for the owners to provide this much needed essential. The bedroom unit is in the house and this must be clarified on the website. The unit I stayed in did not have a key to lock however the owner’s bedroom had a security door. Keys must be provided for security reasons. Also, the owners must put it on the website that they don’t allow their guests to stay away after their cutoff time and that visitors are not allowed to go into the rooms. The shower had molds as per the picture.
• Kamupeni (10/5): Exceptional - The place was very clean. Free wifi. They were excellent hosts. I felt at home. Breakfast was amazing and delicious. The place was peaceful. Nothing everything was good.
• Sithembiso (9/5): Superb -
• Hlengiwe (2/5): Very poor - The location the view was to die for Online it says they have breakfast and wifi only to find out they only serve cereals no longer serving English breakfast but they never said anything online as for wifi nothing we paid too much for crab
• Malibongwe (6/5): Pleasant -
• Hannelie (10/5): will stay with Bart and Christa again if i have the change. - We did not had breakfast, we left to early in the morning, the area was beautiful and save. Bart and Christa is lovely people, we enjoyed talk to them. Thank you!! everything was perfect, room was nice and clean, beautiful white bedding, love the fact that we had our own bathroom, it was quite in the house and Bart and Christa is lovely people..
• Karen (10/5): Excellent value, kind hosts, and a beautiful property - The location was excellent, backed right up to Kloofendal Nature Reserve with Grysbok by the backyard every morning. The bed was comfortable. Bart and Christa are kind and interesting people. They’ll go out of their way to make you comfortable. I don’t eat cereal or bread, so I got my own yogurt and berries for breakfast. Bart made sure I always had honey and coffee. They’ve got a refrigerator specifically for guests, so my food stayed fresh. I’ll stay there again! I highly recommend it if you want a safe, quiet neighborhood, some accessible nature, and friendly people in a good central location. There wasn’t anything disappointing about my stay.
• Makin (8/5): Very good - The hosts were really friendly and accommodating and the unit was clean and comfortable. They quickly supplied anything that was missing. I really prefer a bathroom with a door not a curtain, particularly next to the bed. (Pensioners tend to get up a lot at night!)
• Nontobeko (2/5): Very poor -
• Luntu (10/5): The environment was friendly, it was more than what I have expected. - The place was perfect, safe and privately just the way I like it.
• Siphesihle (9/5): Excellent condition room, very welcoming family - Breakfast was good and the overall stay was marvellous. I liked everything about the place
• Mosimanegape (8/5): Beautiful place and located in a safe location.. - Brek fast was delicious. Nothing
• Modise (5/5): Passable - Nothing at all. There were ants and roaches,the shower was very small.
• Hannah (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ntombi (5/5): Passable -
• Themba (9/5): Superb -
• Jabulani (8/5): Very good - Overall Satisfied Need to install air-conditioner

• Elmien (9/5): Value for money and can definitely recommend. -
• Mathieson (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alistair (9/5): Superb - The breakfast probably couldn't be bettered: it was excellent. The hosts were wonderful and made one feel at home. The price was reasonable. The wi-fi signal was a bit weak and occasionally dropped at which point it didn't reappear as a wi-fi network for some time. Other than that no dislikes.
• Bokamosho (10/5): My stay was beautiful 🙏🏾❤️ - Feels homely Nothing
• James (7/5): Very friendly hosts who did a wonderful breakfast in good surroundings, there are minor criticisms but would stay there - Surroundings and pleasant atmosphere created by the hosts. Swimming pool. Very nice breakfast. Filtered water tap. Quiet and peaceful. The rooms weren’t as clean as they could’ve been, with leftover food wrappers and chicken bones from the previous guests left in the room. The hosts did apologise deeply. The bed was hard/firm, but that might be our personal taste.
• Ian (9/5): Very enjoyable and comfortable stay. - The room was clean, comfortable and sunny. Breakfasts were excellent, with something different and delicious every day. Bark and Christa went out of their way to make our stay delightful. We're not big fans of a doorless bathroom and toilet, but for a short stay it was no problem.
• Anelette (10/5): Effort into making my stay as optimum as possible - Very good all in all!
• Thabo (9/5): We enjoyed staying at this place and I loved the way we interacted with the hosts. - Your breakfast was wonderful. The place was neat and the Bart and Christa were very good hosts. I am definitely coming back The pool was a disappointment.
• Nicol (7/5): Good - Very homey. Breakfast was great. Bed was clean and comfy, and I didn't get cold once. Bart and Christa were lovely. So many birds around to admire. Wasn't as cleansy as I'd hoped. The shower and where I eat are important areas that I think needs to be clean. The eating table wasn't always clean when I ate breakfast, or in the evening, there'd still be breakfast remains on the table. When I arrived, the shower had someone else's hair and dirt that didn't belong to me.
• Anonymous (5/5): Passable - The environment, location and the host The room that we booked was not comfortable and it looked neglected and dated.
• Terren (9/5): Superb - The breakfast and the warm hospitality. Nothing
• Rosemary (10/5): Exceptional - We loved everything.. The breakfast was delish! Bart and Krista are the most amazing hosts. Room was very comfortable with a large bathroom. Nothing is too much trouble for the hosts... Can't wait to get back! Nothing... Just wanted to stay longer.
