St James Guesthouses

Amazing hotel, steeped in history. The Findlay room was probably the best hotel room we have ever stayed in. The hotel is in the perfect position for walking to the sea and enjoying the fabulous restaurants in Kalkbay

Amazing views, lovely rooms, good food, generous selection of complimentary drinks

It’s a nice property but the service has deteriorated since our previous stay 2 years ago.

Lovely old majestic manor house with friendly and helpful staff. Within walking distance of some enjoyable restaurants especially fresh seafood eateries at the harbour. Only downside is that it's on a very busy road so a bit noisy if you looking for quiet.

Perfect stay at St James - everything was amazing- room, location, superb staff and service. Good location - easy access to sightseeing routes and stunning views.

Amazing personal attention from staff. Great view Beautiful Rooms Beautiful House Delicious Breakfast Great selection of wines!

Nice guesthouse in good location but breakfast options we limited,

The St. James Manor consists of three side by side luxury properties owned by Rovos Rail which operates 5 star train trips. The "Manor" with its Victorian furniture and Persian carpets and the Seaforth are a bit more 'hotel like' than Homestead which is more light and open. At the Manor you would order a drink at the bar but at Homestead you can just help yourself to the excellent wines and well appointed kitchen. The breakfasts were great. The staff, particularly Good News and Lawrence were amazing, making local recommendations and reservations for you. Lawrence was waiting at the roadside when we arrived to park our rented car, carry our heavy bags, give us a tour, and opened two bottles of wine and set us with bowls of crisps on the deck while he put away our luggage. We had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Vos, the owner, and you could see that his hands on management, pride, and attention to detail would ensure an amazing stay for every guest.

This was my second stay at St. James Manor and it was just as great as the first. Clive, the Manager, was friendly and welcoming and helpful with anything my colleague and I needed. It truly feels like my home away from home...but nicer! Clive even made us a fire and took us to pick up take away pizza one night when we just wanted to have a chill night in. I love being able to open a bottle of wine or fix myself a drink whenever I want and the short walk into town means delicious dining is just a few minutes away.

One of the must surreal stays I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Was upgraded to their renovated facility and was Lorded upon for the entire stay. Can't stay I've ever received such exemplary service anywhere in the World. Well done guys. You're definitely on my list for future stay overs.
