Det är en bra och väldigt uppskattad gest. Ligger i ett lugnt område men gångavstånd till restauranger och butiker. Lite synd att en del av trädgården används som förvaring av saker/bråte osv; behöver fräschas upp lite. Skulle ha beskrivit poolen på hemsidan som badkar liknande då den är ganska liten. Annars en trevlig vistelse. ##### JKK Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### ken Sep 13, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### nice hotel Good and helpful service room a bit small for a king double shower needs some attention breakfast excellent ##### ken Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Gary Aug 14, 2017 Liked: Staff & service #### Business Trip Riverbos Guest House Is a convenient stay if you are on a business trip.Just of Dorp St at the end of a Cul De Sac. with secure parking.

Felt a bit run down, had to change rooms because first room was right next to kitchen and had rubbish outside window. No toilet paper in room. Friendly staff though. Limited tv channels, felt a bit like a dorm. Ok for one night sleep. ##### Gideon Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicholas Apr 4, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quaint guesthouse in a quaint town Had a short one night stay in Stellenbosch and Riverbos was a great choice. You enter via a gated courtyard which has 24-hour manned security (although it doesn't seem necessary in such a quaint area). The staff was very helpful, providing great recommendations in town for food and wine. The breakfast was tasty and a great start to the day. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Nicholas Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Solomon Feb 25, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice Place to Stay. Nice little place to stay and explore downtown Stellenbosh. Rooms are cozy if a little cramped and the Wi-Fi doesn't work too well in the rooms.Service was good and breakfast yummy. Wanted to stay another night but fully booked on a weekday so must be popular! ##### Solomon Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Gerard Jan 11, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Out of date guesthouse It is an old building which is not a problem as long as it is maintained properly, and renovated in time. The Rivierbos Guesthouse was not uptodate and needs a large renovation. The bathroom was completely outofdate, the shower was not giving enough water to get wet properly, and the water was leaking on the floor. The standard rooms are quite small. The breakfast was good, nothing wrong with that. I believe that the owner must invest or lose his business in the coming years. ##### Gerard Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveler Dec 21, 2015 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Die Zimmer sind sehr einfach gehalten, die Einrichtung, vor allem das Badezimmer, eher veraltet. ##### Verified traveler Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Ben Nov 20, 2015 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Einfache Zimmerkategorie meiden. Wir hatten eine Nacht in diesem Hotel gebucht. Das Zimmer der einfachsten Kategorie können wir nicht empfehlen. Es fehlen z.B. ein Tisch und die Lage im Erdgeschoss lädt allerlei Getier ein. Die Dusche ist alt, die Geräusche von Leitungen und Duschkopf suchen ihres Gleichen. Sonst ist das Haus OK, der kleine Frühstücksraum hat uns nicht gestört. ##### Ben Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Willy Nov 17, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Praktisch gelegen Für einen Aufenthalt von 2 Tagen ist das Hotel gut geeignet, das Frühstück ist einfach, aber gut, die Zimmer sind gut und geräumig. Get gelegen für den Besuch der Weinregion. Die Rezeption war seh hilfreich mit Restaurant-Empfehlungen. ##### Willy Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Ian Nov 5, 2015 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good location poor room The location and staff of this hotel are excellent. There is also excellent secure parking on site. Unfortunately the room was minute. You couldn't lay out a bag any where without blocking movement around the room. The bathroom door wouldn't open fully because the bed was in the way. If you wanted to watch the tv (which we didn't) it was mounted on the wall at right angles to the bed. One wall was a full length patio style sliding glass doors which opened out onto the main corridor. To maintain privacy the curtains needed to be drawn resulting in no natural light in the room. Fortunately we spent little time in the room so got by. ##### Ian Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveler Sep 29, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Great if you don't have a car I ended up on Waal street which was a really nice location in Bo-Kamp but the downside was that the security guard to watch your car if on Rose st about a 6mins walk. The breakfast is on a self-serve basis, you want eggs, you cook 'em! ##### Verified traveler Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Gary Sep 15, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Quiet and close to Restaurants A very quiet place to stay very close to a variety of places to eat within approximately 250m walking distance. I stayed for 2 nights because of the location. I will stay at the Rivierbos again when I return on business. ##### Gary Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine Jul 20, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort I really enjoyed my stay at Rivierbos Guest Lodge.
