Originelle Lodge aber sehr groß. Die gewohnte namibische Freundlichkeit bleibt etwas auf der Strecke.

Originelle Gestaltung. Sauberer Pool. Gute Lage für Fish River Canyon und Umgebung

Zimmer relativ klein. Kein Kühlschrank, könnte man in dieser Preis klasse erwarten

Fabulous accommodation

A lovely oasis in the middle of the desert. Very quirky with lots of old cars and memorabilia. Spotlessly clean rooms and beautifully designed . Loved it

Nothing we didn’t like although the TV in the bar area could have been a bit bigger especially as the finals of the rugby was on but that isn’t a complaint!

Very very well

La struttura è veramente bella, super accogliente e l' arredamento studiato nei dettagli. Il mangiare è fantastico.... abbiamo fatto cena e colazione, ci siamo tornati a pranzo appositamente. Le stanze dotate di ogni comfort, letto king super comodo

Non c è stato niente di negativo

A great stay in a quirky place

Quirky accommodation with old vehicles dotted around and lots of motor memorabilia incorporated into the design of the rooms. Staff were really friendly and helpful.

Beds were a little hard and the restaurant is quite cold in the winter (despite the fires).

Superb

I'm so glad we booked the Roadhouse! Great facility, food was good with a wide selection to choose from. The whole place has a quirky and unique atmosphere. Don't let the word "Roadhouse" put you off, this is a vibey spot that is well worth the visit.

We were very disappointed with the activity.We went on the 3hr drive to the Fish River Canyon. It is way overpriced at over R1000 per person! When enquiring about the activity, no one told us of the option to drive ourselves to the Canyon. Our guide was a very nice man but gave us no information that we could read on the boards at the view site. The snacks were 1 small plate of standard fare chips and biltong served on the hood of the vehicle. We also had to drive ourselves over to the main lodge,25km away, to join the drive. No shuttle was offered. We recommend you do the drive yourself if you can. You will see just as much of the Canyon for a fraction of the price.

Beautiful venue 25km from Fish River Canyon main view point. Decor inside and outside was very interesting with all the old vehicles and tools. Lovely diner food and wonderful breakfast.

Overpriced

Good proximity to the canyon.

Extremely overpriced accommodation, which is basic. The family room cost R11,500 for two nights. Everyone sleeps in the same tiny room and the toilet and bathroom is next to your nose. One of staff members at reception advised us that the Garas Self Drive takes 30 minutes - definitely not. We ended up spending almost 6 hours in the car and almost ran out of fuel. Horrible experience!

Wonderfully quirky place, some excellent staff, though a touch expensive

Some really lovely members of staff and we enjoyed the food at Canyon Roadhouse. We also liked the room decor, the comfortable beds and of course the burnt out cars outside!

It's a little expensive, price-wise, for the location and size of the rooms. It's also a shame that there's a massive gift shop at the front of main entrance restaurant/bar entrance. It makes an otherwise very well curated space feel a touch tacky/salesy, as you have walk through it every time.

Very good

I heard about Gondwana canyon road lodge beforehand but was still pleasantly surprised by everything. The attention to detail al around the lodge was just excellent, from the vintage cars and garden decorations to the decorated fuel pumps. But most of all we were treated like royalty by the people and you will really have to travel far to to experience that kind of friendliness, kindness and helplines. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

Very good

The location was fantastic and the staff was really warm and friendly. The breakfast was also exceptional.

The beds were really firm and because the was a door connecting our room to the neighbouring room we could hear the people in the other room snore. The walls are thing.

Good location and comfortable stay in a remote area.

The staff had no record of our booking on arrival. Much scrolling up and down the computer screen before phoning a superior for assistance. rooms were comfortable and clean. Dinner was good with reasonable choices. Breakfast was good with all tastes catered for.

Poor check in. We are still trying to sort out the payment. The staff at the Canyon Roadhouse were not able to help and instead referred us to the head office.

Interesting quirky decor with lots of old vehicles giving an impressive functioning bar, restaurant

Breakfast was o.k.Its obviously in a remote location on a dust road to provide reasonably close access to the famous Fish River canyon further away in the National Park.

It's expensive & for the price I paid I thought a T.V in the rooms would surely be standard!The toilet cystern also required manual shut off.

Check the meal portions when you decide not to take for example the sauce. My daughter wanted the pasta with a white sauce but no ham.
