Ons het die laaste twee jaar by ongeveer 18 gastehuise tuisgegaan en alhoewel meeste van hulle aan ons behoefdes voldoen het was A River Rest by ver die beste. Ons was hartlik deur Linda ontvang en alles was mooi aan ons verduidelik nadat sy ons na ons kamer vergesel het. Ons het elke oggend ‘n heerlike warm ontbyt genuttig en die beste van alles was dat ons die tyd daarvoor kon kies. Marie kry beslis 12/10 vir haar gastehuis want 10/10 is nie genoeg. Sal beslis weer daar wil gaan bly.

Stayed here for 2 nights. Marie and Linda are the standard that service should be measured by. The room is very modern and has all the necessities. I was welcomed with a decanter with sherry and little chocolates and a beer & a coke in the fridge. My car was safely parked in a garage overnight and I had unrestricted access through the house to my room. A lovely breakfast was served one morning by Linda and one morning by Marie. I had a fruit salad with yogurt, then bacon, eggs, sausages and mushrooms. Followed by coffee. Fried tomato and toast is available too. Will definitely return when I have the opportunity!

Wat ‘n aangename verrassing. Die kamer voel soos huis met rivier voor jou en voëls wat sing en visarend wat roep! Geriewe is nie net mooi nie, maar pure bederf!

As a business traveller I have stayed at many overnight venues. In short, River Rest is by the best venue I have ever had the privilege of staying. It has the absolute best view in the entire East London and the most comfortable facility. I would highly recommend it to anyone!
