the location of the hotel is excellent.. right on the waterfront.. its a very quaint hotel and its got the wooden feeling to it.. the rooms were fine though the window was looking out to the entrance of the hotel. the tv was really small.. the room was clean.comfortable.. the only problem really was that knysna is quite a small... more

We stayed here for 3 nights in May. The location is great-right on the quays. We used this as a base for the garden route, exploring the wonderful storms river etc etc. We paid a bit extra to get a lagoon view room and it is well worth it as the view is amazing especially compared to the view on... more

This is a good hotel, but as others also comment, it does not have much atmosphere. It is a modern building, rooms are on a gallery where you are not quite protected from the rain, Rooms good and nice enough but all a bit characterless. Swimming pool, but not a great location for it. Location great as quite near the... more

This hotel is right on the waterfront at Kynsna in a good location. We were only here for one night as part of Kuoni's 'Best of Africa' Tour. The inside of the hotel has been decorated in the style of a cruise ship. It has a small, attractive pool and this area leads directly on the the waterfront with its... more

Stayed here for one night on Garden Route tour. Hotel is most centrally located - next door to waterfront and 200 meters up the street to the old town center. Good rooms, although make sure that you booked the seaview room, because otherwise you'll enjoy nice parking view. Also try to request the room on the 2nd floor closer to... more

Great location right on the old harbour at Knysna Quays. I give it an average rating because as a 4-star hotel it missed that certain something and wasn't captivating. The room was a good size with two double beds, certainly big enough for your baggage etc. we paid extra for a sea / harbour view which was lovely. There is... more

Stayed here for three nights and overall had a great time. The Hotels is right on the waterfront - ask for a room overlooking the lagoon. If you get good weather, you wake up and look out to a fantastic view. The great location enables you to access any of the restaurants in the evening very safely and also, to... more

This is still one of the most beautifully designed hotels we have stayed at. Rooms are well appointed and the hotel itself is light, airy and spacious. We had a room with a balcony overlooking the lagoon. Unfortunately, the previous occupants had been smoking heavily on the balcony and it had been left strewn with butts. This was a bit... more

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights early March 2008. Fantastic waterfront location, adjacent to some well priced and good quality restaurants.Waterfront rooms have nice view .Pool very litte used. but recommended. Knysna main street is a 5 minute walk away with a good variety of shops. Hotel is used by touring groups so can be a little hectic... more
