In the heart of a town with a rich history and immense character, Drostdy Hotel, the finest Karoo gem, is found. This town, Graaff-Reinet,

was established in 1786 and has matured into a charming destination that is well-known for its blend of Cape Dutch, Victorian and Karoo architecture.

Uniquely, the town is surrounded, almost entirely, by the Camdeboo National Park which boasts spectacular wildlife and natural scenery.

Just as pleasing to the eye, Drostdy Hotel was initially built in the early 1800s and has its own fascinating story, having been refined

over the years into one of South Africa’s top 10 hotels. Although it bears modern touches and a contemporary atmosphere,

it remains true to its roots with furnishings and antiques that point to the past.

Guests will find this understated grande dame a comfortable retreat in the expansive Great Karoo.

LOCALITY


Nestled in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa, Graaff-Reinet is the

country’s fourth oldest magisterial district. It is home to over 220 heritage sites,

including various houses, buildings and farms, which reveal the town’s journey

through time. The town is situated within the Great Karoo and is thus surrounded

by natural beauty, rich in fauna and flora.

Graaff-Reinet experiences little rainfall as the Great Karoo is considered a

semi-desert region. Arid air and cloudless skies are typical of this area, as are

great heat and frosts. Daytime is typically warm, while nighttime and early

mornings can become cool, even in summer months. This climate results in

a very particular landscape, dotted with xerophytic vegetation.

ABOUT GRAAFF-REINET
