Excellent stay in Hermanus

Pros: The breakfast was excellent, you order your breakfast preferences every evening the day before, very convenient. The parking was perfect. To check in and out was excellent

An excellent week enjoying the attractions of Hermanus and environs (including Harold Porter Gardens, Klein River boat t

Pros: Spacious and very well situated. Good breakfast with plenty of choice.

Cons: I had been led to believe that I could use my mobility scooter directly from our car or bedroom to access the local attractions especially the Cliff Path. This was clearly not possible because of steps and tough paths.

Elana 8/10

Great stay, convenient, good value for money and comfortable room with good beds.

Pros: The room was very comfortable, and the setting perfect, close to sea and shops. Breakfast was nice and convenient to have it there. We were close to the tidal pools and coastal walks. Friendly staff.

Cons: The room had a lot of dust on the beams below the thatch. The coffee can be improved, to perhaps be a coffee plumber instead of very strong filer which we were served.
