"A lovely location next to the Orange River - stunning gardens and places to wander around in. Great staff at restaurant - flexible on service and tasty food."

"Ticks the boxes - but does not go further. Has the basics and room had good self catering options - but no soap/gel in bathroom. Room wi-fi didn't work and restaurant timings were very eratic - closing early."

"Staff were amazing at this property. From PJ our shuttle driver to reception and the amazing breakfast, I’d recommend this hotel to anyone. "

"Stayed at Lions Rest several times before. Convenient place to stay when arriving in Upington to go to Kalahari. Family run - very friendly. Fixtures and fittings are getting a bit 'tired' and in need of refreshing."

"Have stayed in Upington several times before but first time we have stayed at Browns Manor. Fully deserves 4 star rating. A green oasis in the Kalahari - massive koi carp a reap bonus. Staff really kind and helpful. Nice clean pool with shaded area and loungers. Good quality breakfast included."

"Great view, great facilities, great food"

"Very accommodating. Thanks Pieter"

"friendly efficient check in, nice room with A/C already working well. comfy bed, fridge & tea& coffee making facilities. only complaint was restaurant closes at 15.00 on Sundays (I was pre warned of this but it was still a bit of a pain!). would still stay there in future (but not on Sunday!)"

"Terrible experience at this hotel, i had booked a room with a river view, upon my arrival I was allocated a cube room, with no window and a partitioned balcony. I queried this and noticed that they gave my room to their frequent guest and I had to suffer as am not a regular at the property. I was later given a room which had a small window still not the room I had booked and paid for. Just when i though I had all the terrible experience the dinner was even worse i could not swallow their wings under cooked and covered with BBQ source which was very brown. "
