Best Hotels near Pledge Nature Reserve, Knysna

The construction of the hotel aptly lived up to its name ! The room was spacious and well appointed, complete with balcony; the buffet breakfast was extensive, and the staff were friendly and helpful. And all within close walking distance of Knysna's waterfront !!

Very nice and clean. Comfortable bedding. Staff was extreamly friendly and helpful. Well priced. DSTV package available. Was nice just laying around and watching a movie. There was braai facilities available - event though we did not braai. Will def recommend and stay there again.

Really a perfect hotel. It is called a turbine hotel, because the original site of the hotel is a power certer. But now it is converted into a hotel, the turbines and other equipment in the original factory are all preserved, and the decoration is improved. It is very small and fresh. Our room is located on the third floor (the second floor of South Africa). The room has a balcony facing the lagoon, and the scenery outside is super invincible. On the other side of the bathroom you can see the lake shore and the mountains on the other side. This hotel has almost become one of our attractions in knysna. The front desk is welcoming and you can also make a free wine tasting at the spa, reception location. We fell in love with the sherry in it, and the 200R bottle is about 100 RMB, which is very good. It is also very close to the lake, and it is less than five minutes by car. The price is too high.

We celebrated my 50’th birthday at the Butterfly Blu and Brenton Haven recently. And what a celebration it was! The venue was spectacular, and the catering was out of this world. From day one, Johlanda and her team was extremely organized, and the pre-event arrangements was timeous and from an excellent quality and standard. Johlanda (and my wife) arranged everything in detail, quite a task if an event is held in Brenton and you are resident in Polokwane. On the day of the event, everything went smoothly, with no hitches whatsoever. The venue and catering were 100% spot-on. The bar staff, kitchen staff and waiters (Teenage and his team) were friendly, fast, and efficient. It takes quite a lot for any venue to deliver 50+ perfectly prepared steaks all at one time. Not one of our guests complained in any way or manner about any food, drinks, or service. Our guests were catered for in detail, from persons with allergies to persons with other food preferences (vegetarians and vegans). As most of our guests were from other provinces, most guests also made use of the Brenton Haven hotel, and once again not a single guest was disappointed in any of the hotel or facilities. The group discount offered for event guests, also made the accommodation very reasonably priced and our guests were indeed impressed by both the Butterfly Blu restaurant and the Brenton Haven hotel. It was an absolute pleasure to host my celebration at the Butterfly Blu and I will recommend the use of the Butterfly Blu and Brenton Haven for any occasion or event. If I had to score my whole experience, I will score it 10 out of 10. I wish to heartfully thank the whole of the Butterfly Blu and Brenton Haven team, with what can only be described as a once in a lifetime, extremely successful birthday celebration. Eugene le Roux
