Independent in Gordonia from AU$86

"The rooms are unfortunately not soundproof, which can be challenging when travelling for business. Noise from other guests’ televisions and conversations carries easily through the walls, which can make it difficult to rest properly. This is something to keep in mind when booking a stay here."

"The property is right on the north bank of the Orange River, and offers fantastic views and of course Augrabies National Park. The staff is friendly and informative. We got excellent information from them on the history and economy of the region and on how to access the Riemvasmaak hot springs, including by the spectacular route to its west (4x4 only) through the Vredensvallei canyon."

"Front of office staff were very helpful and friendly. Rooms were very goid"

"We were there famil"

"Property ideally situated for business meetings. Staff is friendly and helpful. Keep it up!"

"Great location and staff, like the concept "

"Felt like a business hotel - no frills - but does all the basics right. Did not enjoy the smell of stale cigarette smoke in my bedroom. Breakfast was great - TV channels were good - lots of parking close to rooms. "

"A beautiful lodge set on a wine farm, the building is wrapped around a swimming pool with the dining room and guest suites looking onto the pool and carefully tended garden. Food was excellent, staff attentive."

"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."
