7 on Marine ★★★★★

📍 7 Marine Dr, Westcliff, Hermanus

"We recently stayed at 7 on Marine and have only good things to say about them. Every single one of the staff was helpful and acommodating, but I would like to compliment Dominique specifically, who went out of her way to find things we forgot and helped us to arrange to have them couriered to us - all while being super nice about it! The breakfast was amazing and the view did not dissapoint! Overall a great place to stay!"

"Our go-to place when in Hermanus. Super luxurious accommodation with breathtaking views of the ocean and (subject to the time of year) whales in the bay. A short walk into the centre of Hermanus for restaurants and bars. Our suite was very well appointed, everything you'd expect for a 5-star stay. Breakfast was excellent and cooked to order. A really lovely place to stay in Hermanus."

Misty Waves Boutique Hotel
8.7 (51 reviews)

Misty Waves Boutique Hotel ★★★★

📍 21 Marine Dr, Hermanus

"The decoration of the hotel is very exquisite, in European aristocratic style. The front desk service was very enthusiastic, and the female manager took the initiative to upgrade me to a sea view room on the second floor. As soon as I entered the room, I saw two whales spraying water on the beach on the balcony. It deserves to be called a whale watching town, with sea view + whale, the scenery is really good."

Whale Rock Luxury Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Whale Rock Luxury Lodge

"The experience at Whale Rock was excellent from check in to check out. Pros (some not mentioned in description)... great breakfast and good options & Service 100%. We stayed in room 4, which was well furnished with a great view. The bed was super comfy. Pool area is great with areas of shade and sun at most times of the day. Staff are excellent and so accomodating, you could not ask for more. Cons If you drive to the hotel using Sat Nav, it can route you through a local "shanty" area, which can be a bit disconcerting, however be 100% assured this is not a problem, as with many places in many places around the world, just be sensible. Drive in and out, or use tuk-taxis after dark and you will be completely safe."

Whale Away Guest House Hotels in Hermanus

Whale Away Guest House

"Lovely stay for 3 nights in Hermanus and Guest House was ideal. Great safe location (security gates at front of drive although Hermanus seems very safe town anyway) Situated a bout 5 min drive on main road to the town. Spacious. clean room and access to outdoor patio and large, private bathroom. Special mention to Kirsten our host whose communication was first class and always there to help and give us some tips on things to do on our stay."

Hermanus Beachfront Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Hermanus Beachfront Lodge

"Thank you !!!! The stay was magnificent from arrival to departure. A most thorough walk through of the room, tv controls, locking the doors - access to the Lodge etc.etc. was most welcome. A view of the beach which took our breath away - we enjoyed the view whenever posible. a walk path along the beach - make it!! See the whales from the Lodge - great fun. The breakfast: Never seen anything like it - espicially the yoghurt and fruits. Dinner? We found the "hopside down" - a very local restaurant - just 100-150 meters away. No large menu but good food and wine we thought. We stayed for 2 days at the Lodge and went to this restaurant both evenings."

Baleia Guest Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Baleia Guest Lodge

"Travelers should be aware that there is major construction and renovation @ this place. I was told upon check in and I stayed one night as it wasn't refunded. Lots of noise, dust and materials all around so it was impossible to sit outside plus the pool was green from all the debris. There really should have been some notification about the work being done."

Harbour House Hotel ★★★★
"Hotel is centrally situated amidst shopping and eating streets. It is also a 3 min walk to the water front and boardwalk. Staff are good. However, amenities are only soap, shampoo and lotion. No showercap, bedroom slippers, robes, etc. Breakfast is simple but good."

7 on Marine ★★★★★
"Superb place to stay while exploring the Whale coast. (The only drawback is the traffic in and around Hermanus area; but this is no fault of the hotel!) We went there for our 40th wedding anniversary. Location is tops ... well everything is tops. Atmosphere is relaxed and friendly! Breakfast is absolutely not to be missed. Service both at check-in and -out, AND Breakfast, was unhurried, efficient, friendly and you could just sit back and relax...what you wish for will be brought to you...! Our sea view, ground level room was really spacious, and spotlessly clean, with a glass enclosed patio , and the shower was just a blast! I thought staying so close to a rather busy (possibly noisy?) street might be not nice, but the bustle of the street is hardly noticeable. Parking off street is as safe as you might wish for. I can 100% recommend this place. I recommended this place to friends as good value!"

Zzzone Boutique Hostel ★★
"The room was on the second floor of a building in the center of Hermanus. The room was large and clean, and the service was quite good. I booked a suite with a private bathroom, but the bathroom wasn't in the room; it was diagonally opposite, which was very inconvenient."
