98 guests' feedbackI had a fantastic stay.
We stayed in a self-catering unit. It was very clean and tidy. Very safe and had our own parking with our own private motorised gate.
Lovely beds and bedding. Had a great stay. Everyone very friendly and helpful. The generator is a bonus! Wonderful. Thank you.
I stayed in Springbok for business and Elkoweru Guest House has in-room Wi-Fi, as well as a generator for loadshedding. The room was comfortable and clean and the other guests were quiet and respectful. Beatrix the Manager was very helpful and friendly, I would recommend making a booking.
They provide very good service!
Very nice stay, very good service.
Thank you very much for good service at short notice.
There was no drying cloth and washcloth in the kitchen. We deferred to DSTV, and both problems were fixed after we reported them. WiFi was not available, a big disappointment. Understandable if signal from the provider was a problem.
This mansion offers all you have in your own home with a host that makes you laugh and enjoy your stay.
Very nice accommodation and the owners are extremely kind and helpful. You can't go wrong.
Very pleasant stay, and the pool was very welcome after a hot day on the road. Receptionist very friendly and helpful.
We found a place to stay here at the last minute and were very impressed.
Hosts were very amiable and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place to travellers.
Thank you very much for your hospitality, we will definitely visit again.
Everything one needs. Would definitely stay there again!
Fair price for what you get. Would have liked breakfast included as an option.
The receptionist was very friendly and professional. The breakfast was particularly tasty and the breakfast room excellently located.
Owner and staff were amazing. Very helpful with requests. Rooms and self-catering unit was very nice and well equipped.
Will recommend Elkoweru. Make a plan for dinner before you arrive in Springbok, especially on a Sunday. Just one restaurant was open and it was full to the brim and had a long waiting list.
Received very friendly and helpful service. Really comfortable, very clean and tidy accommodation. Good location and safety. We will definitely book in here again if we stay overnight in Springbok and recommend it to anyone.
Beautiful gardens and a safe and clean environment that makes you feel at home.
We stayed in the apartment. No problems clocking in. The kitchen and bathrooms are adequate.
It was pleasant staying at Elkoweru Gastehuis. We stayed in the self-catering unit and it had everything we needed. Will stay at this guesthouse again in the future.
Would recommend for accommodation and owner has very good knowledge of area.
The rooms are very neat but we were 2 families with the rooms not all together. Fortunately, the lady was able to make a plan and move my mother-in-law closer.
Top Wifi, DSTV, air con, secure parking, music spreader, everything I needed. Was perfect.
Friendly, warm service!
I have stayed at Elkoweru before and will book there again in the future. The owner is very pleasant and friendly and assisted us with good advice on where to see the best flowers and which roads to drive. Elkoweru is in a beautiful and safe environment and we had a great time staying there.
We were in Springbok to look at flowers. Karl was able to inform us properly about routes. The unit had all the necessary equipment and was neat and clean.
Staff very helpful and friendly.
The room was clean but no power point near the mirror, coffee and tea options very basic and limited. Only one bed had an electric blanket on it. Nevertheless - you get what you pay for.
People very helpful. Will go again.
The reception is warm and friendly.
We are happy! Great service.
We had the main house and the whole experience was well worth it. Well done team.
Elkoweru Guest House was fantastic and the breakfast was delicious. I would definitely recommend a stay at Elkoweru Guest House. The place is very clean, customer service was also top notch and it is very safe too.
We will definitely stay here again, thank you Konrad.
We were kindly received and the host also gave us some history of the area as well as Springbok. Very interesting and will definitely stay there again during the flower season. Will definitely recommend Elkoweru Guest House to friends.
Elkoweru Guest House welcomed us warmly even after hours. We had a nice stay and the room was neat, clean and spacious.
The owner is a friendly person who likes to help. I got the idea that he is not 100% in touch with his own guest house. There were one or two things that bothered us, but they were addressed and our stay was acceptable.
Good location, very welcoming and friendly, but not very clean unfortunately. We felt we paid a little much for what we got.
The apartment was very dirty. Everything was dirty. Especially the rooms and kitchen. Under the beds you could see it hadn't been cleaned in years. And the stove had probably never been cleaned.
Staff very friendly and helpful, contacted us while we were on our way and received us well!
We were pleasantly surprised with the available space and comfortable, spacious bathrooms. The kitchen / dining room is well equipped. The biggest surprise with the cold weather was the availability of electric blankets! We forgot a few things there and they decided to courier it to us. Of course at our expense.
We had a great stay, thank you. Secure parking and well equipped.
Enough space for the children to play.
Friendly service and value for money.
Was hier vir die tweede keer en kan die gastehuis aanbeveel! Heerlike ontbyt!
See stars.
We come again! Was nice, thank you Kappie for the nice chat, information about the area, your knowledge is amazing. Friendly service. When I asked where we could go for dinner that night, Okiep Hotel was a suggestion, it had been delicious. Place was neat, children could play well. Breakfast was delicious.
Good stay over nice rooms
Had a great stay. Will use them again. Friendly and helpful owner. Clean tidy room.
Friendly and helpful staff.
Elkoweru Guest House has a great location in Springbok and is close to all facilities in town. The service is very good and they have safe parking.
Enjoyed Very friendly people and owner.
We were with 3 persons in a flat with kitchen facilities, space to sit and to braai, very good value for price.
Nice room. Very sunny and clean!
See grading.
It's very neat and beautiful there. We felt safe and everything worked. The service was very helpful and friendly. We will definitely stay there again.
Our accommodation was so lovely. The room was run of the mill but neat. Initially we were a bit unhappy because we they gave us a family room instead of 2 separate rooms. Even though it wasn't his fault the owner was very accommodating and gave us other options. Ekowru's location and view of the town is fantastic.
Rushed, impersonal check-in. Booking was made inclusive of breakfast and confirmed by LekkeSlaap. After discussing this with staff upon arrival - a disagreement ensued and refused to accommodate the inclusion of breakfast stating that LekkeSlaap had the incorrect information and that we would have to resolve the dispute with them directly. The morning of our departure, the staff tried to recover the breakfast situation (telephonically) only when they heard us leaving the property, which we declined as other plans had already been made.
Due to the fact that WiFi was not available in the room I was checked in, the receptionist moved me to a room closer to the office. The room is old, shabby. The bedding, curtains, carpets and towels are old, thin and frayed. The price for the shabby room remained the same as for the room I had initially booked. The area is also very "dodgy". Worst accommodation experience ever! And I travel every week for work.
Nice, but the room was a little bit small (for 3 persons).
Please see our rating.
It was worth it and I had a good night's rest. Very neat and I would definitely recommend it.
Good view, easy, friendly check-in, tidy room with bathroom (only shower), bar fridge and kettle, cleaning service. Lots of stairs and shared kitchen downstairs, certainly not a problem for everyone. We were on 'n wildflower mission and Elkoweru has a good location.
The accommodation was great. The people were very helpful and we enjoyed our stay very much. We appreciate the owner approaching us with great travel tips. An exceptional experience.
Thank you Maxine, for your hospitality. Covered parking, delicious breakfast and exceptional hospitality.
Good room for friends. Well located.
The girl at reception did not pay much attention to us, I think she just wanted to go home and we had to ask whether or not we could get breakfast. The room was clean, but so cold and the battery of the aircon was almost flat so you had difficulty adjusting it. The stairs are very high for taking your suitcase to your room. During the night there was a lot of noise from the street with motorbikes and cars that just wanted to race. The woman who made breakfast was so friendly and breakfast was good. We won't go back to Elkoweru when heading to Namibia again. There are other places in Springbok that are much better.
Comfortable accommodation for touring Springbok and surrounding Namaqua.
The stay was very nice. We simply made good use of the self-catering facilities and ate together with two other travellers. The guest house with friendly reception by Elzaan is highly recommended.
You were really helpful and friendly. Although our time there was very short, I would like to stay there again anytime and also recommend it as a nice place to stay.
Everything was nice and clean and there were enough bedding for the cold night. The staff were very helpful. I would definitely recommend Elkoweru. My car was also able to park safely right in front of my unit.
The room was delightfully cool after the scorching heat on the road. Great bath facilities and also a fridge to keep drinks cool. TV with many channels also provided distraction.
For the past three years I have been using Elkoweru Guest House for overnight stays when I travel to Namibia. It's well located and affordable. Very helpful host and delicious breakfast! I can recommend it with confidence.
Pleasant, spacious accommodation with good services.
Perhaps somewhat expensive, but quite sufficient.
The room was extremely cramped for 3 adults. There were no facilities for hanging clothes. I would rather recommend 2 rooms than 3 in 1 room. The shared kitchen facilities are also uncomfortable.
Cleanliness in rooms good, premises cleanliness could improve.
Room was clean and tidy, but lacked the warmth and homely feeling expected from a guest house.
I was under the impression that the price I paid (R400 p.p.p.n) included breakfast, but it was not so. I would prefer it to be more clear next time.
Think the rate is too high for what you get.
Room was very small and the open area outside the room smelled overwhelmingly of stale cigarette smoke. There was also an endless drip of water under the window that kept us from sleeping. The shower water periodically changed from freezing cold to boiling hot while showering. We definitely felt the rate was extortionate for the value we got. Sorry, but hopefully our comments help make the experience better for future visitors.
It was a pleasant experience and I would recommend the accommodation to others.
Will definitely stay there again. Quiet, tidy and very peaceful with everything you need.
We had a great stay!
Our short stay at Elkoweru was enjoyable. Highly recommended. Bedding crisp and fresh. Secure location. Felt very safe.
See the stars.
Everything worked well for us at Elkoweru Guest House - the location was good, the breakfast and the friendly information from the host was great.
It was a good experience. I have stayed there twice. It's a bit expensive, but you don't feel cheated. The place is tidy with very good facilities and is certainly luxurious. Will stay there again next year.
Genuine peasant warmth and hospitality. Will book here again anytime. Clean and tidy room.
The stairs are too bad for us with the luggage. We don't like people from the neighborhood walking past the guest house. The room is very spacious and well equipped. Konrad is busy with upgrades, and this is generally acceptable.
The lockable parking is limited.
The only complaint is that there was no kykNET, and that the dining room was right above the room, which was sometimes a bit intrusive.
The ceiling fan does not work, only the light works. The dish's remote control is broken. The faucet (cold water) in the bathroom is completely loose.
