Hotels near Grotto Beach, Hermanus

Lovely stay, we highly recommend it! The room was comfortable and up to expectations, hostess Nikki was warm and welcoming, and we had the best and most beautiful breakfast of our trip in South Africa.

We got a lovely spacious unit with braai facilities and its own laps area. The property is walking distance from the new harbor and is close to the cliff paths. I definitely recommend staying here!

good hotel. not bad breakfast. everything is done in old french style. quiet. the room has everything you need

Just fantastic. Hermanus is a beautiful little place anyhow but with a stay at “On the Cliff” the trip was topped off perfectly. I’ve never had such an extensive breakfast in all of my travels which really kick started my day. Thank you.

The location is very good, next to the sea and the street, you can walk there. The hotel is not big, but there are parking spaces inside. You can open and close the door yourself. The proprietress speaks standard British English. I will go there next time if I have the opportunity.

Excellent hotel, very welcoming reception. Large kitchen areas. Cozy and clean room. Large bathroom. The receptionists are very attentive, explaining everything about where to go and what to do in the city.

Had a splendid 2 night stay and wish we could have stayed longer. The staff made us feel so welcome. They are exceptionally polite and well informed on the surrounding area. We were provided with a map full of helpful suggestions, and a thorough introduction to the lodge and all it's facilities upon check-in. The lodge is located right next to Hermanus New Harbour and a few steps from the cliff path, which is well worth the walk. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. It opens onto a beautiful, well maintained garden area but a few steps from the pool. Breakfast was fantastic (reccommend the Full English!), and a lovely selection of breads, cereals, fruits, cold meats, yogurts etc at the buffet. Truly, no complaints. Would absolutely stay again.

I liked Baleia. Friendly staff and check-in, even when we were a bit late. Rooms were big and had everything needed. Location and breakfast were good. The only downside is that they seem to have run out of hot water due to a big group staying there. Considering the price, not having hot water was not great, imo. Hopefully this won’t be an issue for other guests in the future.
