Wonderful spacious room with a large bathroom, including bathtub and shower. The onsite restaurant prepares delicious meals. The grounds are exceptionally large with ample safe parking. The swimming pool is well maintained and inviting in the summer heat.

Through no fault of the property, loadshedding (rolling blackouts) for 2 hours during the night had an effect on the air conditioining which made it a little uncomfortable. Kudos to the manager on duty. I called her a 2AM to complain about the loss of power and subsequent heat. She immediately came to check their circuit breakers without complaining. She went out of her way to rectify the situation and even called their city electrician, only to be told that it was indeed loadshedding.

Restaurant staff were brilliant and whilst Middelburg did not appear to have too many attractions/reasons for visiting, the Celsis was a wonderful oasis. We were travelling from Clarens towards Cape Town and initially we had thought about staying in Colesberg but selected Middelburg as getting us a little further down the road. Were we glad we did! The scenery as we skirted Lesotho was magnificent. The roads were occasionally challenging with potholes but much more interesting than sticking to the N1. Breakfast at Celsis was outstanding and set us up for the next stage via Graaff Reinet to Prince Albert.

What an amazing jewel in the midst of an old small karoo town.....It really exceeded my expectations, especially when driving into town. I really did not expect much...just the basic anemities. The town itself did not offer much to the eye. What a pleasant surprise.

What didn't I like....🤔. The fact that we could not stay longer due to previous commitments.

Fabulous stay, we were very well catered for in terms of facilities and food. The quality of food was superb, staff were friendly and happy to have a conversation. The rooms are well apportioned with hot running water, always a bonus when the weather is cold. This place is very peaceful throughout the day and during sleeping hours.

The welcome was wonderful and the room was tip top.

The only thing I'd have appreciated during the night was a feather pillow. I didn't ask for one when we arrived a day early and were immediately accommodated, so there may well have been some available, but there wasn't one in the room. It's my fault for not asking!

Rooms are very comfortable and clean and the play area for the kids is a bonus for people travelling with toddlers. The staff is very helpful and friendly and the restaurant is exceptionally good. The fried milktart desert is to die for.

There was really nothing we didn't like about the place, and if we really have to list something it would be that there were quite a lot of misquitos, but nothing that we didn't solve quickly with Tabard cream.

The venue is very nice and we were greeted by friendly staff all round. the restaurant has seeting inside and outside. the swimming pool is very inviting and we couldnt resist taking a dive. The room was very spacious and the bed was large and comfortable. the bathroom was also much bigger than others.

Nothing to mention

What a fantastic stop, they had everything we needed and the staff were so amazing going out of their way to make our stay special. If I ever go back to Middleburg this is where I'm staying!

The only issue we kind of had is that the shower water just goes cold at random times and takes a little while to come back.

The overall set up. The weather was very bad, so getting from our room to the restaurant was tricky. Luckily we had an umbrella with us. But once inside the restaurant everything was fine, good food and wine and a good breakfast the following morning.

Overall the property is great nothing negative to report

This is a lovely place. After quite a number of hours crossing the Karoo, it was a pleasure to arrive at such a welcoming, family-like venue. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful and so was the rest of the staff. We felt very safe and very relaxed.

There was some noise in the early hours of the morning as the guests from the next door room left. Not a big problem, we fell asleep again soon after.
