Unfortunately I ended up having unplanned spinal surgery the week before and despite a letter from my Dr the Windsor Hotel was totally unaccommodating and flatly refused to allow me to cancel one of the rooms on the booking. Shame on them. Our friends from the UK however did still go, their comments were 'it's OK if you like hotels geared up for coach groups of tourist.'. I will be sharing my experience with friends both in UK and abroad and on social media as people should know what sort of establishment this is. ##### K Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### elena 27 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ottima struttura nel centro di Hermanus, noi abbiamo scelto una camera vista mare e la consiglio panorama bellissimo e dal letto avevamo la possibilità di vedere le balene.

I don’t recommend this hotel to anyone. ##### Nadja Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Laurie 1 Dec 2021 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort We did not stay here after checking in. There was a horrible smell in the lobby area and the hotel rooms are no better than a Motel 6\. Very disappointing. We found a very nice place to stay just down the road for much less money as well! ##### Laurie Stayed 1 night in Nov 2021 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Rene 7 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service Was at first allocated dismal room in annex in backyard reception uninterested and unhelpful.complained and refused room so was allocated decent room in hotel Had booked well in advance why was I sent to the backyard up a lot of stairs with no help with luggage a young man volunteered to help he was only staff member who was friendly.Will not go there agIn ##### Rene Stayed 1 night in Nov 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tara 1 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely location This hotel has lovely old school charm and the view of the ocean is just unmatched. We saw whales from our bedroom window everyday. The hotel is within walking distance of all the restaurants. The walking trail also starts right in front of the hotel. We had a lovely stay. ##### Tara Stayed 1 night in Sep 2021 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### David 12 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Stay was good Only negative was we were refused a drink from the bar at 2030 Before government curfew.
