Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
The Graskop Hotel was a perfect central location for exploring Blyde River Canyon and other attractions in the area. The Garden room we had was very comfortable with secure parking and opened onto a beautiful quiet garden. The restaurant, bar and pool areas décor was all charming and the restaurant evening menu changed daily, featuring local specialties with a good wine selection. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Our stay was great value for money and I highly recommend the Graskop Hotel to other travelers.

We recently stayed at Graskop Hotel in the centre of town for a few nights while exploring the Panorama Route and hiking around Blyde River Canyon and found this a very good place and relaxing hotel. Reservations were made through booking.com where we found very good room rates and communication with this property. We were well received upon arrival and treated excellently by staff throughout our stay.
The hotel has a bit of a colonial period and game lodge decor and feel. There is a nice lobby seating room, restaurant and bar as well as swimming pool and enclosed parking area. There are staff on site at all hours and a good feeling of safety, security and relaxation. Location is within walking distance to several very good restaurants and a short drive to adventure activities like the Graskop Gorge Lift Co. as well as sights along the Panorama Route north of Graskop.
Our room was spacious and very comfortable. Decor was nice, bed large and cozy enough. TV, A/C, wifi, kettle, hair dryer and fridge all worked perfectly. It was a good room to settle into after days out sightseeing. We also enjoyed the daily breakfast that came with room reservation as well as a couple of evening in the bar watching Euro 2020 matches while enjoying local Pinotage.
Overall, this was a very enjoyable stay and place we would gladly return to during future stays in Graskop.

We stayed in a Garden room for 2 nights recently and the downside is that these rooms need a significant refresh they are looking old and tired. However the room has air conditioning and the bed was comfortable. What you will value at the Graskop hotel is that is clean, comfortable and well run. The staff were friendly and very helpful --the handyman cleaned everyone's car while we were there and after a week in Kruger boy it did need cleaning so I made sure he got a tip. Garden rooms allow you to have your car parked outside your room and the back of the hotel is gated. The do B& B but dinner is a well cooked 3 course meal with a menu that changes and was excellent. The hotel has a nice pool which is cool but that is great on a hot day. If you are looking for a good clean and comfortable hotel which offers excellent value for money and you are on a budget this is it. Highly recommended

Decent hotel on the road between Johannesburg and the Krugger. Good location close to Blyde. The rooms are quite simple but clean, secure parking, breakfast and dinner leave no lasting memories but very few restaurants in the area. The living room and the restaurant room are quite pretty.

Very nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff, who did everything they could to accommodate our request to move rooms to be closer as families. The restaurant is very refined and almost elegant with really tasty dishes. The town is small and quiet so, given the central location, you can take a walk and visit the shops around.

The place is full of dust from downstairs to upstairs. The beds are so small in a way that it's like you are sleeping on the floor, i couldn't wait to go back home to my bed. when you go up the stairs the dust is so bad i have been sneezing the whole time since I am suffering from sinuses. We spoke to management and Vanessa at the reception about the whole issue of dust and those small beds we had in our family room.
I wish they would speak to their cleaning team and the supervisor to do his/her job.
When it came to the food it was absolutely delicious.

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Staff very friendly, place clean. We stayed in a garden room. Maybe you should look at replacing the shower head, it's old and does not work nice. Shower in garden room can also be changed to a walk-in shower. Maybe you should consider placing small bar fridges in certain rooms especially for people staying more that one night to keep some things like milk and cold drinks in. Breakfast was excellent.

Good hotel in a perfect location with a great breakfast. We really enjoyed it here again. Upon arrival we were immediately warmly welcomed by Given, at the bar (which is highly recommended) we had a great laugh with Nolly and we would also like to thank Prissca for the good care and the nice conversations. What sweet and wonderful people! Parking is available in the fully enclosed and secure courtyard and you are within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Thank you team Graskop Hotel for another wonderful stay. We will definitely come back!

Great hotel in the middle of Graskop. Nicely renovated with art decorations, a fine little pool and a lovely garden. The hotel receives a lot of group travels on bus, but we were never neglected and felt very welcome from start to end. We were evn offered a choice of the vacant rooms to find the one that would suit us the most. We did not try the dinner, but breakfast was great. Safe parking inside the grounds and just next to the wide variety of local souvenir shops. We had a room in the garden which was very nice, but the door was a bit difficult to close and there was a bit of noise from a generator down the street during load shedding. Not really a problem if you close the door and we had very good nights sleep.

Great hotel and value for the money. There are many places to discover in the area - waterfalls in the Drakensberg, etc., close to the airport and event center. Parking facilities in the yard and a good restaurant. The chef is serving delicious trout.

can't remember but if you phoned them I am sure they could help you. There was a fella at the reception who was extremely helpful and switched on. If you can get hold of him I have no doubt that where possible he would help you with breakfast. Just as a tip, try ensure that your room is pool facing and not road facing as this is the only road through Graskop it is extremely noisy with all the passing trucks. It is a very quaint hotel. hope you enjoy.

Hi, can't remember exactly how much one room was. Don't have a picture of the pool. Not too big but it was fine. You can swim there when you stay in the hotel.
There are more places to choose from in the Graskop area.
