Comfortable. The complimentary scones and tea in the afternoon was a great add on. We enjoyed it.
Pros:

Breakfast was limited.
View was spectacular
Room was okay.

Cons:

I did not like the whole set up of the place. It took me back to the old South Africa before the democratic dispensation. I was unaware that this property is entirely saturated in South Africa's past. I suppose some people would feel very comfortable in such an environment. I will definitely not visit this property again.

Pros:

The building has a wonderful old-world atmosphere, and the rooms are unique and full of character. Secure parking is available.

The on-site restaurant, which serves both breakfast and dinner, is excellent, with a great team and delicious food. They were also very considerate of my gluten intolerance and went above and beyond to provide me with interesting, delicious gluten-free options.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Location.

Cons:

Staff at reception and restaurant owner made me feel unwelcome. It was like they were doing me a favour by providing a service I paid I for.

‘I work at Pezula in Knysna and am only here because they are short staffed’ is not an appropriate response to a guest query.
