Great accomodation, location & on-site restaurant

Very good accommodation and a great location for visiting Mountain Zebra National Park which is only 10 minutes away. Plus they have recently added a super restaurant which must be the best in Cradock. We will definitely be back at Albert House the next time we visit Cradock and Mountain Zebra National Park.

A gem in Cradock

Lovely old house in a peaceful street just off the main route to Cape Town. New owners have great plans for the house, but currently a bit tired. The gardens are a real treat, with lots of places to relax.

Albert House is the most beautiful house in Cradock. Gorgeous gardens and a stately, historic colonial home. It's a stunner! We stayed in a room in the garden which was perfectly adequate. If the new owners fix a few tiny things (shower door handle, new mugs and stocking the kitchenette with dishcloths etc), I would give it a five star rating anytime.

No privacy

Everything was OK but for the privacy. Anyone walking or standing outside our room could see inside the bedroom, even during the day with no light in the bedroom. At night it was even worse. We could not sleep. The door needs to have a curtain or a cover of some kind.

On trouve mieux à ce tarif !

Un manque de soin dans les finitions, l'aménagement et le confort. L'ensemble fait rafistolage et bricolage. Un manque de vigilance avec absence de papier toilette, malgré un check-list de contrôle affichée...mais comme elle date de mars 2016, tout s'explique 🤗. Résume bien l'établissement. Petit déjeuner correct Jardin et extérieur tres beau et secteur calme.

Good location

Good location and easy access . Very comfortable beds but and very bland room with no decor on the walls. The small bathroom was a huge let down with a shower that only gave a sparse sprinkle and no space to move.

Sehr schöne Umgebung, absolut freundlicher Empfang

Sehr schöner Garten, ausgesprochen netter Gastgeber, der auch ein sehr gutes Frühstück serviert hat. Leider ist das Badezimmer sehr in die Jahre gekommen und funktionierte nicht angemessen. Die Betten waren ok, Sauberkeit ok, für eine Nacht ging es. Der nette Hausherr und der traumhafte Garten wiegen viel auf.

2018 Cape road trip

Room was clean and neat but rather mediocre. The shower had hardly hot water flowing, the sounds from the room next door was disturbing and one could follow the next door conversations. Visitor's reception leaves much to be desired. Recommending this B&B to friends, certainly not.
