“Lovely hotel in a lovely location.”

Reviewed May 13, 2013 NEW

Stayed here last week for a quick 1-nighter en-route to Port Elizabeth. This was one of 5 Protea hotels that we stayed in between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth - and location and value-wise, the best. I'm shocked that this hotel is in the same price bracket as other Protea hotels - Stellenbosch and Mossel Bay for instance - when... More

“Not bad for the price”

Reviewed May 8, 2013 via mobile

Hotel is in a great location, but is not a new place. Staff was friendly and helpful. Free wifi, but works well only at the lobby. Rooms are good, a little bit small and clean. If you are not with a car, it's perfect, in front of the harbour and near of the Grey Street and Main Road, where you... More

“Good location. Average hotel”

Reviewed May 8, 2013

My wife and I stayed at this hotel for two nights en route from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth. Our rooms were small and overlooked the carpark at the rear of the building - be sure to request waterfront views when booking! The WiFi was intermittent and the reception staff somewhat disinterested. The general ambience of the hotel was very... More
