Great location and breakfast. Have stayed here before and was disappointed that there seems to have been no refresh of the rooms for many years which leaves it all looking tired.
We were unlucky with the weather so it was lovely to be able to spend the evening in the lounge in front of a log fire and find a cosy blanket on our bed after the turn down service.
The only downside was the flimsy curtains which meant we woke pretty early.
This is our second stay here and it's everything we remembered it to be. Perched on the top of the cliffs with spectacular views across the Ocean and great access to cliff top walks into the town. Staff are friendly and warm and this property is a little gem. Our breakfast was well worth the wait as everything was cooked from scratch.
We were welcomed and truly made to feel at home. They gave us input as to good places to eat. It was relaxing and very nice. The paved path along above the ocean is beautiful. The view and setting is gorgeous. The breakfast and whole setting was perfect. The only thing I can say negative is that due to our schedule we couldn't stay longer AND it would have been convenient to have WiFi in the rooms.
Amazing location, beautiful hotel and great breakfast.

Great location with magnificent views
One night stay. Warm welcome from Aubrey on reception. Couldn't have been more helpful. Very comfortable clean room with idyllic sea view. Great breakfast. Decor a little tired but fine. Would suggest an upgrade to wifi in the rooms, even a few dongles. All in all very pleasant.

Definitely not 5 star
No assistance offered on arrival into a very tight car park. Welcome was so-so. Room was not furnished to expected level. Furniture inside and out was tired. Towels were marked with what seemed to be old make up. Tables in breakfast room were too close to each other. The home made muffins were incredibly similar to those one would purchase at the local Pick n Pay supermarket. Overall it was ok - but for the price paid for a 5 star rated property - it was disappointing and over rated/priced.
There was complimentary cake in the afternoon and complimentary wine in the room. The walk into the centre was amazing along the coastal path. Great opportunity to see birds and in season the whales.
Good location on cliff on the edge of smallish town. 10 min walk to centre on coast path or paved road. Not comfortable to walk in the dark but plenty of cheap taxis for ride backstage night Fantastic views (saw whales from room) from breakfast and most rooms which were massive. Reasonable wifi most areas (free). Would definitely stay again. Not quite 5 star though. Took 45 mins to drive up to Kleinbai for shark cage diving which is a must if you visit the area.
Great hotel in a stunning location with views across the bay. The room was large and well equipped. Great service from all staff. Would highly recommend
Der Stil ist sehr schön, die Zimmer und Möbel, sind stark in die Jahre gekommen und müssten dringend renoviert oder ausgewechselt werden. Abgesehen davon, war es angenehm.
We had a room with ocean view and that was beatiful. The room was very large and during the rather cold winter times we had an electric heating in the bed, very comfortable. The breakfast includes both cold and warm options, so it is ensured that you have a good start into the day.
Had to move from original room due to smell and humidity.
Everything was old and worn.
Compared to all other hotels over a two week holiday this was the most disappointing
Not value for money
Would never recommend to stay there !
a great Place with nice view out to the ocean nad very nice rooms, and a nice balcony.
Friendly staff and good brekfast . very nearbya Hermanus - only 10 minutes Walking.
Top lokatie! Heerlijk ontbijt en een oase van rust. Wat een prachtig uitzicht op deze unieke lokatie. We zouden zo weer terug gaan.
Tip: wij vonden onze kussens van het bed wek heel erg dik. Ligt echt niet lekker.
