We were arranged to stay in the annex building, which is not in the hotel, but on the upper floor of another commercial street after crossing the road! On rainy days, you have to cross the road with an umbrella to have breakfast, which is super inconvenient. There is a smell in the room, which feels like it is old and unventilated. There is a fishy smell when you open the window... We arrived at the hotel at about 8:50. When the nearby restaurant will open the kitchen at 9 o'clock, the front desk of this hotel lied to us and said that their front desk would be off work at 9:30, so we were asked to check in first, resulting in us not being able to eat anything in the end. We had to drive several kilometers to buy McDonald's in the middle of the night The next morning, I complained to the manager. The overall feeling was that the manager was partial to the employees. Knowing that the employees lied yesterday, he just said that he would educate them; I could clearly feel that the main service objects were white people, and the difference in their attitudes towards Chinese nobles and Asians. We were the only Chinese guests in the whole hotel; then our dispute was noticed by the white people passing by, and the hotel manager agreed to let the employees apologize to us (I took a picture of the last irresponsible manager's name tag)

I really like this hotel. The reasons being - it’s not over priced, it has lovely rooms and it’s super central. The staff are incredibly friendly and it’s great. I have stayed in another main hotel in Hermanus but I found that to be very overpriced for what it is. This hotel works perfectly for a one or two night stay.

We stayed 2 nights at this hotel whilst on a road trip along the Garden Route We decided to upgrade our room for the 2 nights at a very small cost as it had a sea view and with binoculars we could watch whales in the bay - Southern Right Whales females calf’s and males The staff were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble There are no facilities to eat dinner but there are plenty of restaurants in Hermanus for all tastes and preferences Breakfast was cooked to order and was amazing - no need for lunch We worth considering staying if you are traveling the garden route

We had a really lovely stay at this hotel. We were there for 2 nights and both rooms were spotless and had balconies that had sea views. They have plenty of parking, the staff are very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. We didn’t use the pool as it was a bit cold. If you get a chance do the cliff walk you’ll see lots of nature and some great views. The local restaurants are also very good. Highly recommended.

Stayed here for 2 nights in March. One of the only places we could find with a pool where the sun loungers also look out over the sea. Lovely hotel, staff all helpful. Welcome drink and afternoon tea are a nice touch. Some rooms are in a building just across the street - this is where we were and they were absolutely fine, but ask when booking if this is important to you. Our room was a good size, had separate bath and shower, and doors to a shared terrace where you could see a bit of the sea. If you can afford it I’d splash out on a sea view room with balcony in the main hotel. The only opportunity for improvement in my opinion is the cooked breakfasts. Breakfast was a good selection (continental and cooked to order), but the cooked was no where near the standard we came to expect whilst in South Africa - my omelette one morning tasted very strong of vinegar (I think they used mushrooms in brine) and I also tried eggs benedict, but the hollandaise was split and had then been sat under a heat lamp I think as a skin had formed. We stayed on a last min offer/deal and would def stay again if we can find a similar offer should we return to hermanus
