Alles war sehr sauber und die Ausstattung war von guter Qualität. Sehr gutes Frühstück. Die Lage ist auch sehr gut, nicht weit zum Zentrum oder Hafenviertel mit Gaststätten und Geschäften. ![Blick aus dem Zimmer ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/44ad3dea-c644-481d-91ae-674ecdf790d0-1763454817811.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jens Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Schitterend Prachtige kamer met uitzicht op de baai, gloednieuw, heel net.

We felt such a warm welcome on our arrival there. Stunning room and oh that view of the lagoon is just breathtaking. And on top of all, delicious breakfast served every morning.

Seul petit bémol, nous avons été un peu déçu par Knysna ##### BRICE Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 26, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Schöne Lage, großes Zimmer, super freundliches Personal ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Knysna Classic Colleen and Cecil were always available, friendly and helpful with tips about restaurants and site-seeing. The house was built in 1940 and is opposite the Knysna lagoon, just next to the N2 Highway on the way into/out of town. The house was classily decorated but the room had air conditioning, electric blankets, espresso machine, outdoor sitting area on the veranda and views of the heads. Breakfast was nice with plunger coffee, cheeses, eggs, muesli, fruit and juice. A lovely couple interested in current events and filling us in on their part of the world. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 28, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything was perfect, nothing to dislike, great host, excellent recommendations of places to visit and eat/drink.

If I need to look for a place to stay I will choose another place. The picture are elusion. No value for your money The place are old. The room smells old There is no a private balcony as the picture. No privacy at all!!!The forget to worth the the most busy road N2 it’s in a front of the room and it’s very crowded from the cars. It’s difficult to sleep. No hot weather . It’s not worth the money.!!! ##### Tamar Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 18, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Colleen and Cecil made us very welcome at the guest house. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### LINDA Mar 6, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort I thought that the property was more secluded rather than being a short distance from the main road. The room was very pleasant as was our hostess. The area was very nice and easy walking distance from the tourist areas. As a general comment on the garden route I would not recommend it and am surprised that it is so highly reviewed. I was very disappointed. ##### LINDA Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### cornelis Feb 26, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### heel comfortabel Ik was hier drie nachten. een prachtige accommodatie en een mooie omgeving. het echtpaar dat het guesthouse runt heeft een heel aangename prettige en professionele toewijding. het was een genot kennis met hen te maken en hun gastvrijheid te ervaren. heel plezierig. ##### cornelis Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very nice indeed, highly recommended ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Town Lodge Bellville](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Town-Lodge-Bellville.h485201.Hotel-Information) > - [Penguins View Guesthouse](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-PENGUINS-VIEW-GUESTHOUSE.h48804983.Hotel-Information) > - [The Winchester Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Winchester-Mansions-Hotel.h119452.Hotel-Information) > - [Sherrington Court suite 1](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Sherrington-Court-Suite-1.h25833184.Hotel-Information) > - [Prince Edward Mansions suite 3](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Prince-Edward-Mansions-Suite-3.h26668455.Hotel-Information) > - [Oudekraal Lodge - Comfortable and Spacious 3-bedroom Holiday](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Oudekraal-Lodge-Comfortable-And-Spacious-3-Bedroom-Holiday.h100418462.Hotel-Information) > - [Harpers House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Harpers-House.h14702249.Hotel-Information) > - [Camps Bay Beach Apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Camps-Bay-Beach-Apartment.h24926742.Hotel-Information) > - [Horizon Bay 1201](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Horizon-Bay-1201.h29659268.Hotel-Information) > - [Cape Grace, A Fairmont Managed Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Cape-Grace-Hotel.h541970.Hotel-Information) > - [The Paragon 317 - Two Bedroom Apartment, Sleeps 4](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Paragon-317-Two-Bedroom-Apartment.h102385365.Hotel-Information) > - [The Yard - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Yard-Hostel.h42135097.Hotel-Information) > - [Constantia Cottages](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Constantia-Cottages.h13309883.Hotel-Information) > - [2 Cottons Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-2-Cottons-Cottage.h31844970.Hotel-Information) > - [Afton Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Afton-Safari-Lodge.h113633206.Hotel-Information) > - [Coopmanhuijs Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Coopmanhuijs-Boutique-Hotel.h3750887.Hotel-Information) > - [Azure 213 On Big Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Azure-213-On-Big-Bay.h28783146.Hotel-Information) > - [Queen Victoria Hotel & Manor House by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Queen-Victoria-Hotel.h4271934.Hotel-Information) > - [Lumley's Place Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Lumleys-Place-BB.h37699148.Hotel-Information) > - [Vetho Villa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Vetho-Villa.h18079509.Hotel-Information) > - [Aurora Guest Units](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Aurora-Guest-Units.h37859074.Hotel-Information) > - [The Den Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Den-Apartments-By-Cape-Summer-Villas.h38084092.Hotel-Information) > - [Whale Away Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Hermanus-Hotels-Whale-Away-Guest-House.h21121581.Hotel-Information) > - [Ocaso by Totalstay](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Ocaso-By-Totalstay.h21521657.Hotel-Information) > - [White Lodge Constantia Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-White-Lodge-Constantia-Guest-House.h3763121.Hotel-Information) > - [Umoya Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Umoya-Boutique-Hotel.h96057334.Hotel-Information) > - [The Grosvenor Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Grosvenor-Guest-House.h13371813.Hotel-Information) > - [Unit 613 Cape Royale Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-613-Cape-Royale.h42354206.Hotel-Information) > - [Elements Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Elements-Lodge.h3648412.Hotel-Information)
