A fantastic stay at Arista guest house. The owners are warm and welcoming and go out of their way to make sure your stay is pleasant. The guesthouse is located in a nice suburb of bloemfontein and has all the amenities one would need while travelling. Bonus is solar power so no load shedding!

We stayed for 4 nights for our daughter's netball at Sentraal and it was wonderful. We were warmly welcomed and had nice conversations with the helpful hosts. Room and bathroom was beautiful and very clean. Nice beds ensured a good and comfortable rest each night. We will certainly book at Arista again and recommend it to our friends. Thank you, Jana Conradie

I stayed there for two nights and it was a Home away from home - and what a paradise experience in the heart of Katu. My stay was something I've never experienced before from a guesthouse. I was warmly welcomed and the food was excellent of highest standards. This was indeed a gorgeous place i thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I will absolutley recommend to visit Devosrus B&B Guest House in Katu .

So incredibly well run, Maria Nenkov has every reason to be proud of her establishment. A wonderfully warm room on a cold winter night, attention to all details that matter to a traveller provided by a caring committed owner, freshly cut fruit and delicious warm breakfasts are all the hallmarks of an exceptional guesthouse. A memorable experience in Bloemfontein.

We were in this guesthouse while visiting family in Bloemfontein over Christmas. Svetlana went out of her way to make us comfortable. The large swimming pool was a big bonus for our kids and their cousins in the extremely hot weather. The tasty breakfast with generous portions kept the teenage boys going for the day. We shall return!

After travelling down from Plettenburg Bay, we had booked an air bnb which was unfortunately not up to standard. We ended up calling Svetlana at 9pm asking for availability to stay the night. Svetlana was superb! She accommodated all 5 of us in 2 of her rooms, met us to settle us in close to 10pm on a Sunday night. The rooms were clean and comfortable which was just what we needed after a long trip on the road. She set up breakfast the next morning fit for a King just for us as we were the only ones staying at Arista. Svetlana, thank you so much for your hospitality and kindness, we will be sure to make use of your guesthouse the next time we pass through.

Warm hospitality and largish rooms/bathroom with dstv and free WiFi provided at good value all tick the right boxes, however with just a few tweaks and upgrades could definitely gain an additional star or two, yet unfortunately as it is there are better options in Bloemfontein. Some simple things that just need attention and improvement : better situated tv which is too high and in corner, general upgrade of rooms and bathrooms as all just appears a bit dated, old and tired, same can be said for the beds, covers, furnishings and towels etc and major bugbear is the temperamental shower mix re heat/cold as well as lack of any pressure. Breakfast offering is good but again old type filter coffee maker doesn't shape up unless only serving American tourists at breakfast? Small improvements which could make a big difference but as it stands nothing wrong or bad re a stay but as said one can choose better

Having to travel often I visit Arista frequently. It is always amazing. The owners go out of their way to ensure you are comfortable and cared for. Breakfast is absolutely delicious and fresh. Never an issue with the WIFI connection. Spotless rooms. Amazing service. Would not stay anywhere else if I'm in Bloem!

We spent a night with Nicholas & Svetelana. What an awesome couple, true salt of the earth. Their hospitality was terrific. Take a cozi & a drinkie in the hot summer to enjoy at the pool. Rooms are clean & comfortable & your hosts try in every way to make your stay memorable. A delicious Breakfast was a highlight. Quite a spread with home touches. Arrived as strangers and left as friends. We'll definitely stay with them again.
