I travel to PE regularly for business and have stayed at a number of hotels there (with the exception of the new Radisson). The Garden Court is stll my favourite (better location than Radission IMHO). I stayed over two nights ago and it had just been refurbished and renovated. I think it was needed as the decor started to look... more

Recently went to PE for Ironman South Africa. The hotel manager greeted us as if we were royalty. He immediately explained that on race day breakfast would be available early and any special needs could be accommodated. Situated less than 1500m from the start and expo venue, it is relatively convenient. Room size was good with huge double bed. Two... more

Can't fault this hotel, except that the Spur restaurant on site is not great. I was there in Winter and the hotel was freezing cold. I don't expect this is a problem otherwise. more

the location of this hotel is great, right on the beach. The hotel is quite old and i think in need of modernisation, especially the rooms. Safety deposit boxes are in reception and are free. Breakfast good, staff great. Rooms on the front were quite noisy as there is a car park below. The Greek restaurant nearby has lovely food. more

My family, friends and I recently stayed at the Garden Court Hotel, King's Beach, Port Elizabeth in March 2007 because my wedding took place in Port Elizabeth. My partner who is from P.E. and I had travelled from London and my family and friends had mainly come from Australia. Everything that I needed help with arranging, ie. a shuttle bus... more

Stayed at the Garden Court for 3 nights in Feb as part of a cricket tour. Very clean and efficient staff who went out of the way to help. The breakfast was excellent and there are some great restaurants only a stones throw from the hotel. Would certainly stay here again. more

We didn't have particularly high expectations for a Holiday Inn, it was just a stop over en-route although the hotel was actually very good. Located only 5 minutes drive from PE airport (the hotel arranged a pick up for us), friendly and efficient staff, room was on the 9th floor, spacious, very clean and with a fantastic view over the... more

I recently stayed at the Garden Court Hotel in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. The hotel was modern, efficient, very clean and with a great location. It is minutes from the Port Elizabeth Airport (PLZ.) It is right next to Kings beach. The hotel has several restaurants and McDonalds is right next door which can be helpful if children don’t want... more

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at this hotel as there were no reviews to look up before we went. This hotel is very clean, reception and porter staff very helpful and there is ample parking if needed. Our double room was spotless and very well laid out (also incorporates hair-dryer which isn't stated in their website). Breakfast buffet... more
