The hotel breakfast was very good. The view was awe inspiring. The room had great coffee available. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Brown eyed manager was really patient with my grandmother and really professional. Loadshedding was a bit of a problem because in the middle of the night the generator switched of and Gran couldn't make it to the bathroom in the dark. The bathroom ventilation was a bit of a problem and the room air conditioner didn't work. For the price I would say it was reasonable but improvements can be made in terms of small helper lights on the stairs. The swimming pool is heated and looks out onto the stars which was awe inspiring to see. Overall I would definitely recommend this hotel.

I had booked over a month in advance for a Family trip, since we had 4 I ended up booking the presidential suite for the view and space. When we got there we were informed a party was happening so we could not eat in the restaurant and they would be using the main level. It made us feel so uncomfortable we stayed in our room only leaving to go out to eat. We left first thing in the morning, manager was unable to be found so left our keycard with the chef. We didn’t even stay for the breakfast so I can’t comment on that.

Views: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Food: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Room:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a fantastic stay at The Mount Knysna, which is a small, boutique hotel close to the viewpoint of the two heads. Staff are attentive and the hotel is homely. We were slightly early for check in which was accommodated without mention, and check out was smooth and efficient. Definitely do catch dinner at Second Story, and dig into the hotel’s very good South African wine cellar. We caught a movie at the in house movie theatre, with freshly popped popcorn, drinks and snacks. Breakfast every morning was such a treat too. The pool is heated with a spectacular view of the lagoon. Uber works well in Knysna but we hired a car, and the hotel has free parking. A quaint hotel with personal touches brought by the lovely staff!

We had the pleasure of staying at Mount Knysna in August. Everything about this place was wonderful. The views are beyond compare. It’s hard not to keep taking photos. The accommodations are wonderful. The staff is amazing. They went out of their way to make sure everything was wonderful. It was by far the BEST food we had in Knysna! And, a real treat was watching a film in the movie theater! Thank you, Jordan, and to all the staff who made our stay so wonderful.

Service excellent, location fantastic, views spectacular, food great. Even when we had to leave early due to personal reasons they left us a parcel with some baked goodies for the road. Only negative - the morning we wanted to leave early they hadn't restocked the coffee pods in the room and we couldn't find any coffee or cups before we left. Otherwise wonderful stay.
