One of South Africa's must visit country hotels. Whenever I can (and can afford it), I stay over at this lovely hotel in Graaff-Reinet - summer or winter. Be sure to explore the buildings and try the cigar lounge, which has an excellent collection of books. The restaurant is excellent, at times they have wines in the cellar that are hard to source elsewhere (apart from Franschhoek). Small art gallery and wine shop attached to the hotel. Other nice little restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance.
Located in Graaff-Reinet, 8.4 miles from Valley of Desolation, Profcon Resort has accommodations with a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a restaurant.

The owners were extremely friendly. They sat and talked with us a bit. They gave us advise to a place to eat dinner. It was within walking distance. The streets felt safe to walk at night there. Alot of police presence.

It was a lovely stay, perfect size and spacious. Lovely atmosphere!
We believe that Graaf-Reinet is a great stop over.
We believe that Graaf-Reinet is a great stop over. We believe we'll need to stopover in the future as well - it's 5 hours from Bloemfontein and the places we visit at the coast are 8 hours plus, so we see it as a great opportunity to stop over and chop our journey in 2 manageable stints.

Graaff-Reinet is often celebrated as one of South Africa's hidden gems, known for its rich history, stunning landscapes, and unique charm. Nestled in the heart of the Karoo, it’s renowned for its well-preserved Cape Dutch architecture and its status as one of the oldest towns in the country. The town is surrounded by the vast Camdeboo National Park, offering breathtaking views of the Valley of Desolation and a sense of connection to nature.
Graaff-Reinet's historical significance, combined with its warm hospitality and scenic beauty, makes it a special place that holds a unique appeal for both locals and visitors. Its slower pace of life, coupled with a deep cultural heritage, makes it a memorable place to grow up and live, leaving a lasting impression on those who call it home.

There is so much going on in this beautiful town, so much to explore and experience, excellent small restaurants and coffee shops to keep you coming back for more, I wish I had stayed longer to get to try more places but winter or summer Graaff-Reinet has something to offer every age group.
The schools in the area are exceptional, my preference being Union High School as I was a border there in high school, a great choice for anyone looking for a place where children can be nurtured.

The visit to the Valley of Desolation was a highlight.
The visit to the Valley of Desolation was a highlight. The road was in good condition but did not intrude on the nature reserve objectives. Local industries must have invested a lot to keep the walkways, look-out points, parking, etc in excellent shape. Interesting information was added to metal name plackets on several trees along the footpath.
My visit to the John Rupert Art Project was well worth the time.

Graaff-Reinet is a gem for anyone who loves history and (well-preserved) historic buildings. Most visitors pass through while heading toward the coast or back to Joburg and drive straight through the centre of town and out the other side - but the best of what this city has to offer is OFF the main road... on the side streets. So many beautifully preserved historic buildings, unexpected coffee shops and galleries, museums and places of interest. Definitely one of South Africa's more charming small towns (for those who would just take a moment to leave the main road and LOOK).

There is a lot to do and see in an around Graaff-Reinet. Unfortunately we could not stay longer than one night. It is a very historical town with beautiful old buildings. The scenery and reserves in the area are stunning.
