Extremely accommodating regarding our unexpected late arrival to the property. Unfortunate our twin bed request was not honoured. All staff were brilliant. Breakfast and the setting was wonderful. Wish we had stayed longer.

Amazing! I was only upset that we didn’t get to staying longer. The room and grounds were beautiful, with Zebra and Springbok Antelope.

Huge apartment in a boring town

We had the top floor apartment which was huge, comfortable and well equipped, if rather oddly decorated and furnished. Someone had a touch of the Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen , with little splashes of vibrant colour here and there. Lovely gardens with a zebra and some springbok in the paddock. Good breakfast with very nice waiting staff. But Swellendam is so dull, I wouldn’t recommend staying- you’ll be bored senseless after half a day.

Almost perfect

My wife and I stayed for two nights. We had the Africa Suite which was comfortable, well furnished and spacious with a huge naturally-lit bathroom. The property itself is well maintained with lovely semi tropical gardens and a nice pool area. 4 stars would not be enough but I would have given 4 1/2 if I could for a couple of reasons. (1) the hotel is a long way from the centre (30/40 minute walk at least and) where most of the restaurants are and (2) although efficient, the lady on reception was not particularly welcoming (but not unpleasant) and seemed to have little interest in us, something that we have not found with other hotels during our stay. Would we go back? Probably not although it really is a very nice property for a relaxing stay.

Don’t hesitate- book this place if it’s available

This place was the nicest we have stayed in South Africa.. we had the espirit suite and it was an enormous and luxurious set of rooms overlooking the lake. Much has been said about the springbok s and zebra in the adjoining field but mention must be made of the crickets,and the weaver birds we watched from the private patio in front of our room. Magical. The room and gardens were filled with floating flower heads. The plentiful towels were thick and fluffy. The toiletries were good quality . And the room contained ground coffee and a percolator, home made rusks, fruit, water, and a well stocked minibar. The super king 4 poster bed had fabulous quality bedding and was so comfortable. The breakfast. Oh the breakfast was sooo good. Fruit salad yoghurt, cereals and juice followed a menu of cooked options. I thoroughly recommend the French toast. Oh, and the younger berry jam is scrumptious.scones, crosissqnta and good qulitycoffee. It was a feast. And this is after we ate a fab dinner at the next door restaurant the previous night. The welcome at this blissful place was warm, and we felt very safe. I can’t recommend this place enough. Sadly we stayed for one night only but it was a long way from a stop over- this place is a destination and an event. It has a superb well kept ( and warm!!)swimming pool , wonderful gardens, and great communal indoor areas too. It is well worth a detour just to have this experience!

We had a wonderful one night stay at the Rothman House! Our loft apartment was spacious, clean, and tastefully decorated. Leah- our host whose family own the Guest House served us a fantastic breakfast and told us all about the place. The grounds and gardens are beautiful with a resident zebra named Marty and several springboeks including an albino! It was a perfect stop heading back to Cape Town from the Garden Route. Highly recommended.
Kitchen area complete with complimentary homemade rusks made by Leah's granny!

4/10 Fair

This is our third visit to Rotham Manor but this time we found our room freezing the heating was not working even though we got the Manager to check it and one of the plug sockets were faulty. There were tea and coffee facilities but no milk and no to ask so we had to go out and buy some.. When we went to breakfast there was a fire in the room but it was not lit and we eat it with our coats on. Basically a very unpleasant stay.
