Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was comfortable and enjoyable, although the rooms were a bit outdated and could use some refurbishment. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making my overall experience pleasant. The location was amazing, with beautiful sea views and easy access to a clean beach for long walks. The dining experience was good, but the breakfast options were a bit limited at times. The facilities were decent, but could benefit from some updates.
The hotel's location is excellent, offering beautiful sea views and access to a lovely beach for long walks. The hostess was friendly and welcoming, providing a comfortable and well-appointed experience. However, the entrance and booking area were disappointing. The hotel is conveniently situated between Mosselbay and Knysna, making it a great central spot for exploring the area.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, though in need of an update, were fine, comfortable, and neat with basic amenities like a kettle and TV. The staff was friendly and helpful, but some services like transfers were not available. The central location provided easy access to both Mosselbay and Knysna, although it could be inconvenient for some destinations. The dining options were limited, resembling a basic feeding scheme, but the salads were delicious. The facilities were adequate but could benefit from improvements.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean but not as stylish as shown in the pictures, while the service was lacking in some areas. The location was excellent, although the staff came off as unprofessional. The dining options were crowded, but the price was reasonable for what was offered.
The hotel has a mixed experience with nicely upgraded and comfortable rooms but criticized for the unfriendly staff and outdated look advertised online. The service, however, stands out with personalized attention to guests and sincere handling of complaints. The location offers a stunning beach view but may present challenges with accessibility. The dining variety receives contrasting opinions, emphasizing the quality of the meat. Overall, the facilities are convenient and well-maintained.
