Great place to stay close to the canyon

Quirky, delightful motel in the middle of nowhere but able to provide nearly all modern comforts. Only thing missing was a tv in the room but I didn't miss it. Restaurant was excellent. Beds were very hard. Good hot shower. Having visited Ai Ais, I was very glad we were staying at the Roadhouse.

Canyon Roadhouse Oasis!!

It was an oasis in a beautiful setting. Attention to detail and friendly staff were in order for our stay! Comfortable accommodation, great food, and everything that you could need were available, including fuel for vehicles. Highly recommended, and we would definitely stay there again.

Good stay

Well kept hotel and very clean. Rooms on the small side but adequate. Could have done with a fridge in the room. Enjoyed the pool. A bit expensive but considering location in the middle of nowhere to be expected

Pleasant stay in a memorable property

Pleasant stay at a quirky property. The hotel felt a bit like a car museum; a lot of very interesting older vehicles with great patina and history. The room itself was clean, modern, and well decorated. Solid breakfast, nice staff.

Absolutely fascinating experience staying at this Roadhouse. I wish I had had lots more time to browse slowly through everything they have on display. Had a wonderful swim after many long hot hours on the gravel roads and the accommodation was excellent. Food very tasty and good breakfast. Would recommend this establishment to all my friends and family.

Close to Fish River canyon

We enjoyed our stay here so much. The lodge is uniquely decorated with old cars and vintage memorabilia which makes it a photographers dream. The splendid Fish River canyon is very close with magnificent views from many viewpoints and walks.
