Quirky guest house
We stayed here as we were going into the national park the next day. It is not a fancy hotel but very clean and comfortable. Quite a quirky place. Bed was extremely helpful and friendly. Places to eat close by. Breakfast was very good and plenty of it. I was not a fan of the tiles on the bathroom floor but that is just my opinion. The balcony looking out over the mountains was wonderful as is the setting for breakfast. Storms River is a small town so don't expect 5 star luxury but a pleasant experience all the same

A great base for adventures in the national park
Right in the middle of Storms River, surrounded by the national forest, this is a perfect base for whatever level of adventure you have in mind. The room was basic, but clean, spacious and with some nice touches to make it homey. Plus a nice patio to relax at the end of the day. Breakfast was excellent.

Unhappy.
We left without staying the night due to security reasons and they were unable to move us to another room. Becareful if you stay here.
Response from Bev / Owner on 21 Mar 2018
I am sorry that you felt insecure/threatened having one of our garden staff working outside your room during the afternoon, and that due to being fully booked we could not move you to an upstairs room. We are fortunate that we live in an area with minimal crime, but we do have burglar bars on all windows in the rooms as a precaution. I trust you managed to enjoy the rest of your holiday in our wonderful country...

This was a wonderful hotel experience essentially because we were looked after and treated so well. The building ids extremely comfortable and had fine facilities of which we could not fully use due to our short stay.

Very nice experience overall but noise carries
We stayed here for two nights in August. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was spacious and clean. Nice scenery. We were provided with a very good heater for the room which was great. Breakfast was very nice and there is also a reasonably priced laundry service. Only downside was that the noise carries a bit. On our second night our neighbour was watching TV very late at night and very early in the morning and it disturbed us quite a lot.

Coole Holzausstattung "at the woods" und sehr nette Gastgeberin. Zimmer war sehr groß, haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Frühstück am Balkon wird von der Gastgeberin direkt betreut, daher recht flott :-). Parkplatz vor der Unterkunft. Ruhige Lage, dass Kaffee gegenüber gehört dazu. Kann ich zu 100% weiterempfehlen.

Goede B&B, ik ben één nacht geweest en dat was goed, leuke kamer, goed ontbijt. Er zijn enige restaurants in de omgeving. Stormsrivier stelt op zich weinig voor, maar het is een goede basis om Tsitsikamma te ondekken.

Friendly service, basic but clean facilities
Facilities are basic - e.g. Limited TV channels, no air conditioning and wi-fi reception in rooms downstairs not good. Overall the rooms were however very clean and service was friendly. The next door restaurant has a limited menu and close early however there are other restaurants nearby with more choice. Storms Rivier is a good destination for nature lovers with walking trails nearby.

Välj ett annat hotell
Vi hade ett härliga naturupplevelser med promenad i regnskog, över hängbroar och fantastisk solnedgång i Tsitsikammas National park. Vågade oss även på kanopy, sipline över trädtopparna. Allt var toppen förutom vårt hotellrum. Fint litet hotell med bra läge och frukost men rummet luktade mögel. Det innebar att väskor och kläder luktade mögel i flera dagar trots att vi bara bodde där 1 natt.

Originelles B&B in schöner Lage
Das B&B ist individuell und sehr orginell eingerichtet. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und haben uns richtig wohlgefühlt. Einziges Manko: Es war an dem Tag nach Wetterumschwung sehr kalt und das Zimmer war etwas klamm und zugig. Zum Frühstück gab es eine Auswahl an continental Breakfast und leckeres warmes Frühstück wie diverse Omelettes nach Wunsch zubereitet. Zum Abendessen können wir das Cafe nebenan unbedingt empfehlen. Auch sehr urig und originell eingerichtet und super Essen. Wir würden wieder hier übernachten.

Empfehlenswerte Unterkunft im Tsisikamagebiet.
Unbedingt sehenswert ist der Tsisikamanationalpark. Wer nicht so viel Zeit hat sollte aber unbedingt zu Hängebrücke laufen. Schöner ruhiger Ort für einen Stopp zwischen Kapstadt und Port Elisabeth. Gut essen kann man im De Oude Martha und Elvisfans können den Tag im Marilyn´s ausklingen lassen.

Rustikales B&B in Stormsriver
Stormsriver befindet sich mitten im Nationalpark Tsitsikamma .Man sollte beachten das man eine Mautstraße passieren muss, die nur Bargeld annehmen. Der Ort Stormsriver bietet sich an um Outdooraktivitäten zu machen. Die Inhaberin des Hotels ist sehr nett. Das Hotel ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, bietet aber trotzdem alles was man benötigt. Im nahen Umkreis des Hotels befinden sich einige Restaurants die fußläufig erreichbar sind. Menükarten findet man direkt bei der Rezeption.
