Lovely place, decent value for money and generally has most of the amenities that you need. BEWARE: Room service: the room service from the hotel is NOT room service as normal hotels define. Although it is not indicated in the room booklet you will have to go downstairs to look at a menu and order. Then they will forget to... More

The rooms are really well furnished and of a good quality although they are on the small side. I would not want to stay here for... More

I stayed one night in this hotel at arguably the busiest time of the year (Ironman competition) and was impressed with the efficiency of the hotel staff. This hotel is a tad noisy as walls are a little thin and all the exercise and adrenalin junkies wake far too early and speak in loud excited voices, however, be that as... More

Staff are always accommodating and friendly.spotless rooms .Breakfasts has variety to satisfy all taste buds. This is always my choice of accommodation when in Port Elizabeth. There is a crystal clear swimming pool and a equippped gym on the premises. For the runner there is a awesome promenade which is long enough for a good run on the shoreline. Walking... More

Was a quick trip to PE for business and the rooms seem to have just been revamped, so everything looks great. Service was also excellent and we were made to feel welcome even though we only arrived late on a Sunday Evening. I would stay here out of business.

Reception was top class. The rooms clean and well appointed. The breakfast poor and disappointing. Should I have to ask for butter, salt and pepper to be told" it's on your table", argue that it was not, only to have a surely face deliver me my butter, salt and pepper. Tragically the other diners had non either. Who is managing... More
