neha bunkar (9/5): - The room is exceptionally spacious and offers a stunning view of the Knysna Lagoon. The staff are wonderfully polite and attentive, ensuring all your breakfast needs are met with care. The swimming pool could be much nicer with some additional cleaning and upkeep.

Marko (8/5): Pleasant stay in Knysna - It was perfect for one night in Knysna. Bed was very comfortable, there is a nice terrace with a view over the river if your room is high enough. Staff was very friendly and easygoing.
Myra (9/5): Stunning view from the room. Like 5-star hotel, very clean. - Not centrally located but best view in the large terrace. Excellent customer service, staffs are always smiling and helpful. Very spacious room, beds are so comfortable. Best hotel and sleep we had in garden route. Highly recommended , great value for money. Thank you for making our visit special.
Christo Kamffer (9/5): - Location, View, Breakfast, large bed, friendly staff A bit pricey for what you get, but this was high season.
Daniel (8/5): - Das Gasthaus liegt in Knysna Heights in einem wohlhabenden Wohngebiet, von dem man einen schönen Ausblick auf die Bucht hat. Der Check-In verlief schnell und freundlich. Die Zimmer im Haupthaus haben einen tollen Ausblick. . Insgesamt war das Zimmer nett eingerichtet mit einem sehr bequemen Bett. Positiv aufgefallen ist das Frühstück. Hier gibt es eine breite Auswahl an diversen Kalt- und Warmspeisen und man bekommt auch frisch gemachte Eierspeisen, die sehr lecker gewesen sind. Die Zimmer im Nebenhaus sind quasi auf der Terrassenebene. Da das Haus keinen gesicherten Zaun hat und man von der Terrasse quasi ins Zimmer geht, fühlt man sich dort (es ist halt Südafrika) nicht 100% sicher. Das Badezimmer könnte eine Renovierung einmal vertragen.

Maurice (7/5): - The view was exceptional and the bed was very comfortable. I was right next to reception, so there was quite a bit of movement passing my door. There was an irritating fan noise that was consistently waking me at random times

Gert (7/5): -
Morena (7/5): - La stanza è molto bella e curata nei minimi dettagli con una bella vista. Il parcheggio incluso comodissimo. Staff cordiale e disponibile. La pulizia scarseggia un po’. Senza auto non puoi spostarti per raggiungere il centro di Knysna, essendo ubicato in strade solitarie e dislocate (seppur a 5 min di auto). La colazione disponibile è poco fornita e non è stata di nostro gradimento.

Mayur (8/5): Very good - Rooms were well sized and comfortable. Smart TV's are provided in the room so you can link your phone and accounts. Bed was very large and soft. It was nice to have the kitchen facilities for making tea/coffee and warming food. Overall it was a decent stay and the staff are lovely. Shower is extremely small and uncomfortable. Hit my head on the entrance multiple times and its very difficult to move around without bumping the shower mixer constantly. The roads to the lodge are very poor with many potholes and winding roads although its not a fault of the lodge, just something to be weary of when driving.
