We were delayed due to a burst tyre, but Sylvie made us feel welcome when we finally arrived and kept our dinner (which was excellent). Breakfast served consisted of a variety of delicacies and freshly baked bread and scones superb. Fruit and sherry a nice touch in our room, High ceilings and decorated almost entirely in white, except for a variety of fresh greenery and real plants.

Beautifully decorated, spacious and comfortable rooms. The family room was huge, basically two separate bedrooms with lovely bathroom and even a fireplace. Very friendly staff and excellent food too.

We had a delicious dinner, but didn’t stay for breakfast. Lovely village to walk around with a couple of good book shops

Karoo hospitality par excellence in the heart of Richmond! Sylvie's lamb curry, served with freshly baked bread, roti and homegrown tomato salad served on a beautifully set table with candlelight, melts away the troubles of the world. Body and soul, nurtured and cherished, you can't resist sleeping like a baby in "old world charm" decorated rooms. Highly recommended!

The Richmond Cafe And Rooms is quite simply an absolute gem. The food is incredible, the accommodation is comfortable and luxurious, and the hosts and staff are equally incredible. Really can't rate this little gem highly enough :)

The entire experience in Richmond Rooms is something unique. You will definitely enjoy it. The interior, design details, kindness of personnel, food. Everything! Stay while traveling between Cape and Johannesburg. Worth it!

It is the ideal stop-over on the way to Cape Town. The staff were very welcoming. The bedroom was charmingly furnished with a very comfortable & spacious bed and the meals were delicious.

a few mosquitos buzzing about at night, but the bed had a handy insect net which stopped them from bothering us while we slept.

We booked two rooms at The Richmond Cafe, which turned out to be a most welcoming oasis in the middle of the arid vastness of the Karoo. The town and the guest house are easily accessible from the N1. The interior is quirkily decorated with much taste, housing well-sized rooms exuding the rustic charm of yesteryear. There is also a garden with a pool and a restaurant. A complimentary crystal decanter filled with sherry awaits you in every room as well as a coffee station with a wide assortment of warm beverages and rusk biscuits. Across the road are a lovely town museum, an antique shop with fascinating finds, and a few other quaint restaurants if you prefer not to eat at the hotel. All in all, it is a perfect halfway stop between Johannesburg and Cape Town and a must-stop for those focusing solely on exploring the Karoo. P.S. The owners also own a padstal some 20km out of town on the N1 towards Colesberg where we stopped for breakfast. The adjoining shop is filled with homemade produce, as well as a few antiques and arty items to purchase.

A pocket of excellence in our country. Staff are very friendly, the facilities are very clean and really is a little boutique hotel in my view. I can see overtime how Richmond Cafe and Rooms have added to their offering. It is an ideal stop between Cape Town and Johannesburg travel. The added pool, with the flamingo adds real character.
