"This stay left a very positive impression. The hotel team was not only warm and hospitable but also full of energy; from check-in to check-out, every staff member was friendly and professional, always willing to offer assistance. The breakfast selection was plentiful and delicious, with both the mushroom toast and the all-day breakfast being very satisfying. The hotel's location is safe and convenient, with parking available, making it easy to get to whale watching or the town center. What deserves special praise is the hotel's attention to detail; the thoughtful and attentive service was evident everywhere. Highly recommended."

Hermanus Lodge on the Green - Solar Power ★★★★

📍 8 Fernkloof Dr, Hermanus

"We loved our stay here, the house is really pretty and traditional, very nicely furnished and very clean. Our bedroom had French doors onto the terrace that wraps around the house and overlooked tropical gardens and a golf course with mountains to the side and behind. The service was amazing, we even found that our car had been washed before we left! Breakfast was beautiful, cooked to order and a beautiful setting. Hermanus itself was lovely and felt very quaint and safe with a stunning cliff walk. The house has secure gates but we walked from the house to the beach and path and enjoyed the walk. We would definitely return"

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."

Zzzone Boutique Hostel Hotels in Hermanus

Zzzone Boutique Hostel

"The nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed in by far in the entire world. Super clean, modern facilities. More like a posh hotel with shared bathrooms than a backpackers. Check in is at the hotel they are owned by I think, just a few doors down from Zzzone. Your bags are transported to your room by the bell hop and they give you a welcome drink. Sea views from the deck and your own mini fridge in your room."

Whale Coast Ocean Villa Hotels in Hermanus

Whale Coast Ocean Villa

"Had 4 nights at west Coast Ocean Villa and apart from some building work going on next door it was faultless. Lovely room, beautiful host Aurelia was a joy every morning, overseeing the excellent breakfast service, and always offering conversation and local advice with a warm smile. A short stroll to the local beach and the Ocean Coastal path makes the location perfect albeit slightly out of Hermanus, a bonus for some. Contemplating a return visit soon!"

The Thatch House Hermanus

"The Thatch House is incredibly beautiful in every way. From the location, the decor, the food and the service, there is nothing more we could have wished for. Slightly outside Hermanus, we enjoyed the gardens and the peaceful atmosphere. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming."

Grand Lux Boutique Manor Hotels in Hermanus

Grand Lux Boutique Manor

"Unfortunately my wife was ill and was unable to travel. I reached out to the hotel directly to explain that as my wife was having a major operation and having an unfit to travel document we would very much like to rebook at a later date . However the hotel showed no empathy or sympathy and refused our request . Money is there only consideration putting their own financial gain and profit before a woman undergoing cancer treatment! I will add the only hotel along the garden route that has shown such a shameful attitude. Way goes around comes around !"

Anchor's Rest Hotels in Hermanus

Anchor's Rest

"Stayed at their apt 9 waterfront apt. Great instructions for checking in and getting the keys. The photos made it very easy. The apartment is nicely decorated and has everything you need for your stay. The pool area upstairs was lovely and the central location was perfect. A little noisey on a weekend, but nothing horrendous and it's the price you pay for being right in the centre. View was good, more than a side sea view, that is advertised. Nice having milk and coffee when you arrive,dsaves you having to shop on the day you get there. Plenty of space in the apartment and good sized bathroom. Had a few issues with the lights but was sorted quickly. Also note had issues with the Netflix, but used our own account, so didn't cause any problem. Note.. There is only Netflix in the room, no standard sabc TV. Parking was no problem. All in all had a great stay and would recommend and stay again. Karien was very helpful as a host."

"The location is very good, next to the sea and the street, you can walk there. The hotel is not big, but there are parking spaces inside. You can open and close the door yourself. The proprietress speaks standard British English. I will go there next time if I have the opportunity."

Esplanade Hermanus ★★★★
"This was probably the best hotel of our vacation in South Africa. The room had everything we could possibly need. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to use the braai. The location is perfect, with a path along the ocean where hyraxes live, and plenty of shops and cafes within walking distance."

Hermanus Beachfront Lodge ★★★★
"We had an awesome 2 day break. The breakfast was good . Only complaint was that when we arrived at the breakfast area our yoghurt and fruit was already on the table… that was great but almost immediately after we’ve had our yoghurt our main breakfast dish was served. I feel the waiter should have come to ask us if we’re ready to eat. On our 2 nd morning I asked them to give us some time before serving the main. Overall we had a fabulous time though it was just for 2, nights. Will definitely go back."

One Marine Drive Boutique Hotel & Spa by the Living Journey Collection ★★★★
"When applied to a hotel, boutique should mean more than small. It certainly does here! Amazing location on Marine Drive with panoramic view of the bay from our room. Beautifully appointed and furnished room (and comfortably large to boot). This was a luxury stay! The staff were friendly and very helpful. This comes with my highest recommendation."

Harbour House Hotel ★★★★
"We were arranged to stay in the annex building, which is not in the hotel, but on the upper floor of another commercial street after crossing the road! On rainy days, you have to cross the road with an umbrella to have breakfast, which is super inconvenient. There is a smell in the room, which feels like it is old and unventilated. There is a fishy smell when you open the window... We arrived at the hotel at about 8:50. When the nearby restaurant will open the kitchen at 9 o'clock, the front desk of this hotel lied to us and said that their front desk would be off work at 9:30, so we were asked to check in first, resulting in us not being able to eat anything in the end. We had to drive several kilometers to buy McDonald's in the middle of the night The next morning, I complained to the manager. The overall feeling was that the manager was partial to the employees. Knowing that the employees lied yesterday, he just said that he would educate them; I could clearly feel that the main service objects were white people, and the difference in their attitudes towards Chinese nobles and Asians. We were the only Chinese guests in the whole hotel; then our dispute was noticed by the white people passing by, and the hotel manager agreed to let the employees apologize to us (I took a picture of the last irresponsible manager's name tag)"

The owner, Martin introduced us to the property and he and the staff were so nice for our stay . A good breakfast started every day well. It’s a very short walk into town and there’s lots of restaurants and bars to enjoy."

Misty Waves Boutique Hotel ★★★★
"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."

Hermanus Lodge on the Green - Solar Power ★★★★
"We had a wonderful stay at Hermanus Lodge on the Green and can highly recommend it to anyone visiting Hermanus. From the moment we arrived, we received a very warm and personal welcome. The host took the time to explain everything clearly and made us feel at home straight away. Our room was immaculate, spacious, and exceptionally well equipped. We especially appreciated the thoughtful extras such as complimentary bottled water, a small carafe of port wine, and comfortable bathrobes. These little touches made our stay feel truly special. The breakfast was outstanding. Guests can choose from an à la carte menu while also enjoying a small breakfast buffet with a variety of additional options. Everything was fresh, well presented, and delicious. Another feature we really liked was the honesty bar system. Guests can help themselves to drinks at any time, simply record what they have taken and settle the bill at check-out. It creates a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. The secure gated parking area was also a great advantage and gave us complete peace of mind. Hermanus Lodge on the Green combines comfort, hospitality and attention to detail in a way that is increasingly rare to find. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future. Highly recommended!"
