Easily one of my favourite spots in SA! Stylish rooms with breathtaking views. Super clean rooms with fresh, high quality bedding and so many extras with personal touches.... the only negative about this place is the fact that you have to leave!

Attention to detail. Besides the absolutely stunning view of the river, overall the guesthouse caters to all your needs and more. The bed was super comfy, the bathroom was squeaky clean and spacious, and our room was beautifully decorated. The owner and his wife are friendly and welcoming, their hands on approach ensured we felt at home during our stay. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. We highly recommend the Riverview Guesthouse.

We have just spent a weekend at Riverview Guest house. We had the most amazing room with picturesque views of the river. The room is beautifully presented with modern furniture and creature comforts. Our hosts, Andre and Toni were so inviting and warm towards us, it felt like we knew them forever. The breakfast was amazing! All I can say is you have to give this place a visit when you next in East London, you will not be disappointed! We will be back for sure!

Honestly a great stay ! Had a warm welcome upon arrival. Rooms are beautiful and fully functional. You won't want for anything. Owners are friendly, informative and helpful. Little friendly furry friends an absolute bonus. Amazing views. Great hospitality. Photos aren't doing the actual views justice.
