Old fashioned but good service
Pros:

Old fashioned hotel. Large rooms but very dated. No milk on the coffee tray and we couldn’t t work the AC because batteries had run out in the remote control. There was a phone on the room but no way to call reception. Breakfast menu was very limited. Hot breakfast had very small portions. There’s no bar so no option go sit anywhere and get a drink in the evening. It’s a 7 min walk into town and very dark along the route so wouldn’t advise walking it any night time. If you want to go out for dinner in the evening I would suggest taking a car.

Pros:

Lovely clean property with many facilities but its decor is very 'busy' and a little tired. Staff are wonderful, place is immaculate, beds soft, lovely bath - would have given an extra half star if I could

Good stay, but small things matter
Pros:

Our stay at Misty Waves Boutique Hotel was good. It is great privately owned hotel in terms of location and room comfort. There are few issues that could be much better. One is staff availability and their attentiveness to guest. We checked in on Thursday 19:00 and there was only one staff member at reception, he was totally overwhelmed by requests from guests bordering on being rude. We needed to hoot for him to open the gate as the telephonic buzzer went unanswered by the staff member seeing that he was swamped. The rooms were clean but there are no turn down service. Also only one bottle of water is provided and thereafter the guest needs to purchase water. The mini bar is not stocked and the guest needs to request for this to be stocked, we did not know this as it was not communicated to us during check in. We only later read it on an information sheet. So once again staff attentiveness needs work. I really feel that the hotel needs to attend to these small things to perfect the experience of guests. It is after all a 4 star hotel in the middle of Hermanus servicing a lot of international guests.

Pros:

Fabulous hotel with helpful and superb staff -
Received a free room upgrade to a sea facing 4 poster bed with a lovely balcony - with comfortable chairs - to watch the sea rolling in.
Massive shower, jet bath and double sinks in huge bathroom with loads of white fluffy towels and lovely smelling free toiletries!
They even printed out a load shedding schedule although the wifi and some lights worked while the electricity was off

Outstanding in all aspects
Pros:

What a lovely hotel. The rooms were big and modern and the decor was sensational. To add to it the staff were very helpful and it came through that they loved working there and cared for the place. It was stated one of the best 25 hotels in South Africa and I cannot argue with that!
