Ok.
Pleasant stay but many nicer places in Hermanus. 10 minute walk to town. Owner was rather intense in communications. Parking not easy to get in or out of tho we were lucky and got the one more accessible space. Although spa and free bike rentals mentioned in Hotels.com information there was no sight or mention of either.on site .

2/10 Poor

This is the worst stay I ever had at any hotel booked through Hotel.com. Let's be clear; this location shouldn't be allowed to be using this service. Let's start with the positive. The room was large and comfortable. The bathroom was large, and the bath was much welcome. That said, the bath had no water pressure. I am not sure why the room has two single beds instead of a big bed, but that is what I booked, so no issues there. The issue is the owner. She is the most intense and unwelcoming hotel owner I ever experience. She requested money from us before we even arriving at the hotel. During checked-in, she commented about other guests 'only' coming by taxi, which we honestly felt uncomfortable with. During our entire stay, she kept contacting us and harassing us left and right. She kept requesting we pay her double what we paid to come to book the hotel on hotel.com. She made comments about people using this type of website and them taking too big of a commission. Her electronic gate malfunctioned and closed on my car, doing real damage to the rear door, and she just refused to discuss it. There is plenty of other great hotels in the region. Avoid this one at all costs.

winter weekend
the basic layout is not suited to a guest house, and privacy would be quite a problem if it was fully booked ...luckily we were the only guests at the weekend, so it did not bother us. Accommodation is clean,neat and well appointed. Book in time of 14h00 is late and leaves very little time before the day is over in winter....if it is not busy, why not allow guests in earlier ?

Very lovely boutique hotel
This is a great hotel, beautiful rooms with everything one could require. The hotel is just minutes from everywhere and we were more than happy with our stay. The owner is super friendly and welcoming and gave us all the information we needed for a fantastic two nights in Hermanus. We originally booked one night but extended it for a further night. The wine route into hemel and aarde area is absolutely amazing.

Great guest house. Landlady was very welcoming and helpful. Great ideas for restaurants given. Rooms tastefully decorated. Short walk to main area. We were really lucky and saw loads of whales from shore and when on a boat trip. Great stay.

Great hotel close to the center of town
Had a great time staying at this hotel! Super helpful staff, clean rooms, quiet, safe, and close to the center of town (5-10 minute walk). Great spot for seeing Hermanus and the whales!

Nice but not great for the price.
Had a bit of a hard time as our water was cold initially and the owner didn't believe us for a day or two. We were much happier when the water for our showers became more that room temperature (which was cold!).

Fantastic Hotel in Close Proximity to Town
We arrived after booking only a few hours before as we had decided to do the Garden Route and this was a stop over on our way back. We had only booked a few hours before but when we arrived, the owner had already received our booking and greated us. The hotel itself is within a compound area for security behind electric gates so you must call the button first to be let in. We were greated, shown to our room and let be. The room itself was more than what we had expected... Much more! To say the pictures and reviews don't do this place justice is to say the least! The room, a beach themed retreat, overlooks the pool area. You have a lounge area with TV and minibar and tea/coffee facilities. Through to the main room where there is the main king size bed and en-suite in a double height space which feels light and airy. Also a treat on our bed on arrival with rusks for our coffee - a perfect little treat to start the stay. Fantastic rooms, clean and very comfortable! Only down side, you can hear next door very clearly as there appears to be a joining door to both rooms - but this may not be the case in all! Also when you are sat watching TV, you don't have any element of privacy as people are watching you from the poolside and garden area which is very close. But on the whole, a relaxed, comfortable stay and would most definitely stay again and recommend to all - especially at the price we had!

Guest house- good location for town
Good value guest house if you want to stay near the town centre as only a 10 minute walk away. Breakfast for us was a little disappointing. No choice of cooked food. No fresh fruit or yoghurt and the fresh coffee had run out and nobody had replenished it.

6/10 Good

We arrived later than expected at 7:45 PM and were told that we were supposed to be there by 6:00 PM. The room was paid in advance and we missed the information regarding an expected arrival of no later than 6:00 PM. When the mistake was pointed out we apologized profusely. While our apologies went unacknowledged the proprietor continued to harp on being late. We were finally given keys to our room, grudgingly. The next morning the woman who checked us in was not much more pleasant. Frankly, her attitude made us feel unwelcome and ruined our stop in this lovely city. We would never stay there again although the rooms were lovely.

Just what we wanted
Clean, good sized rooms with comfortable sitting area for reading or watching TV in the evening. An 08 minute walk to town center. Bathtub and shower. We had two rooms, both lovely. We had a very nice stay!
