배리데일 카루 호텔

Very comfortable and clean with a great vibe. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was delicious. I love the artwork and decor. Safe overnight parking available. Overall a great experience.

As a city dweller and designer, I have kept returning to Karoo Art Hotel every year over 10yrs as a home away from home. She is old fashioned and has a lot of old world charm where the staff have become like familiar friends. It’s a place where I can wind down from the demons of pristinity so prevalent in today’s expectations of modern man to feel more at ease and relaxed amongst other guests looking for the same thing…almost like an early traveller from my grandfathers time. Each room/suite has its own theme woven into decor and linen and each day housekeeping will leave you arriving to a freshly made up bed and clean bathroom after breakfast. The swimming pool area nestled into a lush planted surrounding is perfect on hot summer days when you just want to relax with a crossword puzzle and a g&t in the afternoon without anywhere to go. The quiet low lit streets are incredible at night and after one of Derek’s incredible dinners, I’ll always take a walk to meet the friendly companion Zorro along the way while crickets chirp to break the deafening silent surroundings. Everytime I leave I know it will only be for a brief moment…thank you for doing what you do KAH!

A hotel full of character. Lovely secluded garden and pool. Being so different from a chain was refreshing (wonderful staff) but some might find it somewhat quirky

From the minute we set foot in the hotel, we knew it would be a good experience! Little did we know it went from good to great! We arrived a little early and were greeted with a warm reception. Our room (Melville and Moon) was amazing. It was clean, decorative, spacious with a rustic feel. We even had our own huge balcony. We spent the afternoon by the pool in a beautifully manicured garden. We enjoyed a lovely dinner where we were greeted by the very kind owners. We were lucky enough to experience a 7:00am meditation swim in the fresh waters of Tradouw Pass with warm cappuccinos hosted by the owners. Hands down, an unforgettable 24 hours in Barrydale. Thank you!

Excellent food, lovely hotel, enjoyed the art tremendously. Staff very attentive and accommodating,well trained. Sue Mellville very kind and caring hostess. When travelling through Barrydale a must stop.

We had a delightful dining experience at The Karoo Art Hotel in Barrydale. The ambience was beautifully set with a cozy and artistic vibe that added to the overall enjoyment of our evening. Reservations are essential to secure a spot, so be sure to book in advance. My husband and I savored the must-have Karoo lamb curry dish, accompanied by sambals and extra chili for those who enjoy a bit of heat. The lamb was succulent and flavorful, making it a memorable meal. The service was excellent, and the staff ensured we had a pleasant dining experience. Attached are some photos capturing the elegant dining area and the delicious lamb curry dish we enjoyed.
