Central Guesthouse

Central Guesthouse is situated in Upington, a convenient stopover for those travelling on the Kalahari-Namaqua-Namibia route, also known as the Namakwari Route, to and from Johannesburg and Cape Town.

We offer four neat and tidy rooms, each with its own bar fridge, TV, air-conditioning, en-suite bathroom and coffee facilities. There is a clear swimming pool for the hot days in summer as well as braai facilities.

Even though the landscapes in Upington are very arid, the soil is still very fertile and crops such as fruit are grown in irrigated fields. The area is best known for its export-quality grapes, raisins and wines, which are cultivated on the rich flood plains of the Orange River.

The Orange River is also a major source of relaxation and entertainment for travellers and locals alike, with its beauty and tranquility attracting people from all over the country yearly. Upington also boasts many beautifully landscaped gardens, rose beds and large, graceful trees all situated in a genuine atmosphere of peace and tranquility.

Upington is a favourite hotspot for thrilling activities such as boating, fishing, golfing as well as waterskiing. It may seem arid and desolate, but it is in fact a bustling area boasting great beauty, fun and adventure where there is plenty to see, do and enjoy here.
