Stunning place to stay
We booked Linkside at the last minute based on the Expedia recommendation. We were not disappointed. The room was beautifully furnished, clean and with every possible amenity. Petra is a fine, friendly owner and justifiably proud of her guest house.

This is an oasis in Mossel Bay. Petra and her staff are wonderfully attentive to all of your needs. The shower needs a bit of a good scrub/grouting.

Nice hotel, but not great location
Hotel was fine, breakfast was superb and staff were friendly. However, location was further away from amenities than I was expecting, about a 1 mile very steep climb from the centre, meaning that we had to rely on the car

Our room was small, but had a lovely private patio. Breakfast is excellent. The fruit platter is a work of art! Petra is a super host, very friendly, very helpful, very efficient. Note for golfers: Petra will efficiently help with golf bookings prior to arrival.

Excellent and relaxing choice in Mossel Bay
We arrived fairly late at Linkside after a long and stormy drive from Cape Town. The welcome and room we received from Petra was the perfect antidote - we were soon booked in for dinner in town at a recommended restaurant (Gannet - turned out to be excellent) and given some friendly info on what to see and explore the next day. The room was superb - everything you could need and more was in the room, and the large bath was great. I enjoyed the reading material on SA in the rooms as well which gave some good background on an amazing country. Breakfast was casual, tasty and filling and we enjoyed the views from the terrace and chatting to other guests. Overall I cannot fault the place and suggest it is an ideal stop off for the start of the Garden Route.

Excellent B&B
A stopover on a Garden Route trip. The owner was very welcoming and the B&B was in excellent condition. |From our room and the breakfast room there were excellent views over the town and the bay. We saw whales from a cafe in town. The breakfast was a work of art and my wife took photographs. We enjoyed our stay. Mossel Bay itself was a little run down, but that may be because it was just the beginning of spring and there were few visitors.

Thank you Petra!
My friend and I had a brief 2-day stay in April 2015. As two females, we felt incredible safe at the inn and in the neighbourhood. The inn is run by a wonderful woman named Petra. Upon check-in, Petra offered us an upgrade to our room. When a city-wide power outage occurred shortly after getting into our room, Petra came running to the room to make sure that we were okay. The breakfast each morning was fantastic and we had a wonderful stay.

Great comfort and value
Winter is slow season so it was quiet and we got a very nice comfortable room including comfy bed. Delicious deluxe hot and cold breakfast in a large window-filled dining room with an ocean view. Friendly host. Rooms are in a very nice contemporary mini-condominium B&B. It is in a residential area close to the harbor/central Mossel Bay (short 5 minute drive).

Beautiful breakfast with a wonderful fruit salad starter on our visit. Fantastic view across the bay at breakfast making for a relaxing start to the day.

Unique Guesthouse Experience
Finding hotels in South Africa during World Cup was a daunting task, and Linkside2 was one of the few who had a room left. We chose it based on the positive reviews from recent lodgers, but no review could do this place justice; even we can't decide on what positive aspect to focus on [Petra the owner who did us a huge favour when we arrived (she'll know what we mean), the guesthouse itself, the spectacular room, the delicious breakfast, the panoramic views, the city (yes, much more to see and do than expected), and the firsct-class service in general] as the only negative thing is that it was a 15-20 minute walk to city center and there's no public transport. However, we didn't mind that so much as we're used to walking, and this would be a non-issue for those with cars. So, the only thing we could really say that might encompass all the thoughts we have of this place is that it's a place to be seen and experienced.
