On return the counter was cleaned but the basin and surrounds not. At this point I asked to speak to management, who was very apologetic and said will be in touch with me further. Coffee machine was broken asked for coffees, they never arrived. Both meals we had there were not to order, Room service took over an hour, arrived cold with no cutlery. When asked why is was ice cold they suggested to reheat it. The restaurant had 4 tables. We asked to speak to management again, the front of house said they were too busy and gave us a voucher to stay free nights in future.... I said rather than throw money at the problem, maybe the manager to speak to me and hear what the issues are, and I returned the voucher. I was then promised management would call before 5pm that day. 3 days later... nothing ##### Jarrad Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### armando 10 Aug 2022 Ambiente un po' freddo, ma vista la stagione.... ##### armando Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rishi 25 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay, amazing view!

Lovely boutique hotel with huge restaurant dining facilities. Bedroom was lovely, beds were high and needed a small stool to get into (helped with enjoying the sea view over the balcony) bed were comfy and the room was clean and well stocked with honesty mini bar. The bathroom was very art deco and as big if jot bifgger than the large kingsize bedroom. Double shower, bath and wardrobes. Additional beach bag and sari were available for use as well as an umbrella, not that we used either but it was a nice touch. Additionally when looking for this hotel it is now pink exterior, not the cream pictured, should you get lost looking. ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 19 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing room, food, and service. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joatan 1 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ótimo para clima romântico Excelente estadia com muito conforto e serviço de qualidade.

The hotel is gorgeous and full of personality and charm. We were upgraded to room 8 which has an amazing view of the bay and a balcony. The hotel kindly gave us complimentary bubbles on our arrival to celebrate our honeymoon. The room was huge with the most comfortable bed of our whole trip I’d say. Amazing double shower and free standing bath. They were just at the last stages of the renovation while we were there so I’ll look forward to going back to see how it all finished up. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend for something slightly different and memorable. Also the fresh cut long stem red roses throughout the hotel and our room are a really nice touch. :) ##### Paulette Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Susan 23 Jan 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Too shabby to stay. Sadly this establishment is more shabby than chic. The entire place feels unloved and in need of a massive refurb! We felt so uncomfortable that we left the following day. ##### Susan Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Walburga 11 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stylisches Hotel in Strandnähe Aussergewöhnliche Zimmer, sehr gross und wunderschön. Das Frühstück lässt keine Wünsche offen. Sehr freundliches zuvorkommendes Personal. Absolut empfehlenswert. ##### Walburga Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### Manfred 1 Mar 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nicht zu empfehlen! Das Hotel war das Schlechteste unser dreiwöchigen Reise durch Südafrika! Die Zimmerwände waren mit uralten Büchern dekoriert, ähnlich wie in einer Bibliothek. Der Geruch war entsprechend muffig und schlecht. Die Möbel waren "antik". In das hohe Bett konnte man nur über einen kniehohen Schemel steigen. Die Toilette war duch eine unappetittliche Wolldecke vom Schlafraum getrennt. ##### Manfred ### 8/10 Good #### Paul, South Lincolnshire, UK 24 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Wacky, nostalgic hotel with great view Staying here was a different experience. Hotel harks back to the inter-war years of the grand hotels with decor and furnishings themed accordingly. This theme continues into bed heights (ours must have been a meter from the floor!) and the placement of light switches, which in our room were not designed to be turned off from the bed. However, the staff were lovely, as were the breakfasts served up on the patio overlooking the panorama of Plettenberg Bay with the Tsitsikamma Mountains beyond. We ate at the hotel on one of our two evenings and enjoyed nicely-presented, tasty food with quality wines available by the glass. ##### Paul ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 6 Feb 2017 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very tired hotel - aims to be shabby-chic but is definitely more shabby than chic. It could be great but it needs a lot of attention to bring it up to standard. French beds very high, no problem but could be for elderly or someone less mobile. Shower floor tiled crazy paving style with steeply sloping tiles and is very uncomfortable for standing. Pool area not inviting, only 2 sunlongers and not comfortable. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Ana Fevereiro 23 Jan 2017 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Bela vista O Hotel é muito bem localizado, com uma vista maravilhosa. No entanto não tem chuveiro, somente uma banheira com uma ducha, bem dificil tomar banho. A manutenção e limpeza do banheiro também deixaram a desejar, uma pena, porque o hotel é um charme. ##### Ana Fevereiro ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 14 Jan 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### no shower no windows form without function terrible room - not even a shower just a hand held tub shower and no shower curtain. lighting in room deficient switches complicated to operate. service staff were excellent. restaurant had great view. location is very good right in the middle of downtown so walkable. form without function...unfortunately could not sleep comfortably in a tall high small bed and with no windows in room and only ventilation available from a standing round portable loud fan...very uncomfortable experience overall ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Paul 12 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort We loved this room. The decoration, style and view were outstanding. Location is also fantastic for local bars shops and restaurants. Although it did not affect us or our stay in any way, drawback for some may be the lack of air conditioning and inability to receive wifi signal in the room (no.5). ##### Paul ### 10/10 Excellent #### denise 11 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Brilliant place to stay.
