Location was good, but the hotel was absolutely no good value for money. Rooms were poor, dirty, small, old and with fungus. You'll get vouchers for breakfast, but you have to pay extra to get a full breakfast. Really strange. Staff was unfriendly, lazy and chaotic. We would absolutely not recommend this place. More

Stayed in one of the basement rooms for 3 nights which was clean & comfortable but a bit shabby, especially the bathroom. Communual areas were much nicer and the house is in a good location. Service at the reception office was great but we didn't realise when booking that reception wasn't in the house- it's at 1 Loader Street and... More

I would struggle to know whether to recommend De Waterkant House or not. We had booked for a twin room and initially were given a lower ground, (small) double room which did not look like it had been redecorated in some time. For what we were paying this was very disappointing. However, having pointed out that we booked a twin,... More

Quaint guest house with an amazing atmosphere and aura. The house feels like home but with that something extra. The beds are large and comfortable and you awake to the smell of "tannie sarie's" rusks being baked or the smel of coffee brewing.

We stayed at the Waterkant House for 5 days. It is not for the staff at the reception you have to go. But there is a little secret about this specific place and this is Sarie, who is a pearl. Like a mama she is reading your wishes. We stayed at the Courtyard Room, very small, though it was quiet.... More
