We stayed one night, and would not return, the area is rather remote and we were on our way to Knysna and opted to break the journey, we wouldn't do it the next time. The bathroom was so cold, it was uncomfortable, and whilst the bedroom had a heat A/C it was still cold, and water was coming in thru the front door, which we had to ask for towels to soak up the rain water. ##### Moira Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Glen 29 Oct 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A nice place in the countryside The Inn is on a very pretty site.

Bra mat. Tyvärr var buller från trafiken mycket störande under natten, den branta backen utanför hotellet skapade mycket ljud när bilar och lastbilar växlade ned för att komma upp i backen. ##### Lena ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alyssa, US 29 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Paradise in the wilderness of South Africa Beyond words, this piece of paradise is a small garden od Eden nestled in the wilderness of south Africa's most beautiful landscapes . We stayed at the swiss family log cabin , and had every amenity possible. The staff was sooo helpful and accommodating in every way, from suggesting outings , room service, free wifi, etc. the cleanliness was impeccable , and the breakfast was first clas, 5 star, with buffet as well as home cooked to order egg. The sound of roosters in the morning and birds chirping would wak us with a smile , and the country like activities for kids, like a donkey cart ride every day, all made us feel like we could truly experience the beauty of nature and the outdoor wonders . Our cabin faced a mountain view that took our breath away as we sat on the large balcony and had our wine and dinner one evening. This place gets a 10 star rating from us ( party of 4 +7 month old infant) ##### Alyssa ### 10/10 Excellent #### Willy 17 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hideaway This Hotel was a wonderful surprise on our Trip trough ZA.

There are lots of activities organised by the hotel such as horse riding and trail walking. The room was a good size and well appointed. The staff were friendly and helpful. The only disappointment was the lack of WiFi service. In this day and age it is inappropriate to limit Internet access in this way (100MB per day between 4 people) and then to charge for additional access. ##### Simon ### 8/10 Good #### Eldon 19 Oct 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Room 16 has a lot of noise from the road. ##### Eldon ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deon 28 Sept 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A hapy environment Met very friendly on arrival and showed the way to the log cabin which is situated away from the rest of the hotel overlooking the valley.

What a gem this place is. In a stunning location at the foot of Robinson Pass. We stayed in one of the Swiss cottages with a superb balcony and amazing mountain views. The food, staff and service were all excellent. Simply not to be missed! ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Jacques, Montreal 17 Feb 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Belle hotel mais assez vieux C'est un très beau site et l'hôtel est assez vieux. Ca serait bon une touche de rafraîchissement! La nourriture est excellente au déjeuner et au souper! Personnel très flexible! ##### Jacques ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 26 Jan 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Roundabout no where Situated 30 minutes north of Mossell Bay at the foot of Robinson pass you are a captive audience. Breakfast (included) was good quality and plenty of it. Lunch and dinner also very good and in UK terms very reasonably priced.We stayed in a round house comprising of a bedroom and bathroom good size and comfortable, but for some traffic noise starting at 5-30 am. although other rooms are situated way from the road. Many inclusive activities available. ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Radisson Hotel Cape Town Foreshore](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Cape-Town-Foreshore.h4623642.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House at the Queen Victoria Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Manor-House-At-The-Queen-Victoria-Hotel.h19310581.Hotel-Information) > > [Avondrood Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Avondrood-Guest-House.h12640404.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Foundry Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Old-Foundry-Hotel.h57820595.Hotel-Information) > > [Paternoster Dunes Boutique Guesthouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paternoster-Hotels-Paternoster-Dunes-Boutique-Guesthouse.h31911613.Hotel-Information) > > [The Commodore Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Commodore-Hotel.h83744.Hotel-Information) > > [Vineyard Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Vineyard-Hotel.h523689.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Cape-Town-Waterfront.h29305328.Hotel-Information) > > [Botlierskop Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Klein-Brak-River-Hotels-Botlierskop-Private-Game-Reserve.h2991039.Hotel-Information) > > [Mountain Marina Luxury Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Mountain-Marina-Luxury-Apartments.h24940058.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Collection Hotel, Waterfront Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Waterfront.h545852.Hotel-Information) > > [Tsala Treetop Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Plettenberg-Bay-Hotels-Tsala-Treetop-Lodge.h1030430.Hotel-Information) > > [President Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-President-Hotel.h526107.Hotel-Information) > > [Inverdoorn Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Breede-River-Hotels-Inverdoorn-Private-Game-Reserve.h3131643.Hotel-Information) > > [Krystal Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Krystal-Beach-Hotel.h15651822.Hotel-Information) > > [Southern Sun The Cullinan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Southern-Sun-The-Cullinan.h118030.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Taj-Cape-Town.h3016361.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean View House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Ocean-View-House.h3091584.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanbona Wildlife Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barrydale-Hotels-Sanbona-Wildlife-Reserve.h1155735.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sky Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Hotel-Sky-Cape-Town.h63494685.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Bay-Hotel.h18132.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson RED V&A Waterfront, Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Radisson-RED-Hotel-VA-Waterfront-Cape-Town.h18644202.Hotel-Information) > > [Gondwana Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mossel-Bay-Hotels-Gondwana-Game-Reserve.h4145102.Hotel-Information) > > [Boschendal Farm Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Boschendal-Farm-Estate.h15426059.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [Victoria and Alfred Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Victoria-Alfred-Hotel.h46797.Hotel-Information) > > [Garden Route Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albertinia-Hotels-Garden-Route-Game-Lodge.h2917158.Hotel-Information) > > [The Alphen Boutique Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Alphen-Boutique-Hotel.h46794.Hotel-Information) > > [The Clarendon - Fresnaye](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Clarendon-Fresnaye.h3004641.Hotel-Information) > > [Living Hotel Lions Eye](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Houghton-View-Guest-House.h10633636.Hotel-Information)
