One of the most stunning places we've ever stayed at. The staff is very welcoming and helpful, with a lot of great attention to detail (welcome drink, chocolate and fruits in the room, breakfast wishes). The room was spacious, modern and very beautiful, with a terrace overlooking the landscape. Can highly recommend THEBLOEM.

Einfach nur Super!

Wir verbrachten 3 Nächte im The Bloem. Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und nett. Das Hotel war sehr sauber und toll eingerichted. Die Aussicht über die Bucht von Knysna einfach super. Das Frühstück war immer sehr lecker. The Bloem hat sich 5 Sterne verdient. Wir können diese Hotel nur weiterempfehlen. Ein grosser Dank dem ganzen Team für den tollen Aufenthalt.

Truly exceptional place

What a wonderful place to stay. Attention to detail is the very best I have ever experienced. Staff and owners are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. We were looked after like royalty. We had suite 4 which has the best outlook from its raised decking and great to have breakfast out on in the morning.

Ainut laatuinen kokemus. Ihana hotelli korkealla mäenpäällä, mistä upea maisema merelle. Kaunis ja puhdas huone, erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta, joka teki ravintola varaukset ja auttoin omien matkasuunnitelmien kanssa. Aamiainen tuotiin omalle parvekkeelle toiveiden mukaan. Auton saa pysäköityä hotellin eteen ja hotellin kautta saa tilattua kuljetukset ravintoloihin. Alas kaupunkiin pääsee kävellen, mutta ylös tulimme aina taksilla.

Hidden Gem

This was a hidden gem. The most attentive staff we can remember. The rooms are incredibly modern, beautiful and clean. The views from the balcony area were lovely. Free drinks during happy hour. Have almost anything you want for breakfast cooked and prepared specially for you. Great bathroom. Felt very safe and looked after here. The staff are lovely and take incredible care of you.
