I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and made my stay memorable, which I really appreciated. However, I faced some issues with the room location—it was far from the amenities and not very modern. The noise from neighboring guests was another downside that affected my overall comfort.

Rooms

The room was quite dated and located at the furthest end of the hotel, making it a hassle to access the amenities. I had specifically requested ease of access and a walk-in shower, but that wasn't accommodated well.

The breakfast was a bit basic and had limited variety, but it was fairly priced at R165 per person. I wish there were more Halaal options available.

I had a good experience at the hotel. The staff was incredibly caring, especially when they took me to the hospital, and overall, the service was remarkable. While the room was a bit cramped and outdated, the location by Saldanha Bay offered lovely views. Unfortunately, the dining options didn't fully cater to all preferences, especially for halal items. In summary, the hotel has friendly staff and great views, but it could improve on room space and dining variety.

The service was friendly and accommodating, but I did have an issue with noise from the reception area and the kitchen below my room.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and cozy but I did find them a bit noisy due to their location beneath the dining room. The service from the staff was consistently friendly, which I really appreciated. The location was decent but didn't feel entirely safe for walking around at night. Dining was hit or miss, with some tasty dishes but the breakfast area was quite chaotic on Sunday morning. Overall, it offered good value for the price I paid, but there were definitely some areas for improvement.

The hotel has a fabulous location with stunning views across Saldanha Bay, making it a peaceful and relaxing getaway. The rooms were comfortable, although they lacked a patio to enjoy the views.
