One Marine Drive Boutique Hotel & Spa by the Living Journey Collection ★★★★

📍 1 Marine Dr, Hermanus

"This stay left a very positive impression. The hotel team was not only warm and hospitable but also full of energy; from check-in to check-out, every staff member was friendly and professional, always willing to offer assistance. The breakfast selection was plentiful and delicious, with both the mushroom toast and the all-day breakfast being very satisfying. The hotel's location is safe and convenient, with parking available, making it easy to get to whale watching or the town center. What deserves special praise is the hotel's attention to detail; the thoughtful and attentive service was evident everywhere. Highly recommended."

Auberge Burgundy Boutique Hotel & Spa ★★★★

📍 16 Harbour Rd, Hermanus

"Unpleasant welcome with suspicious ID checks! The hotel has no decor whatsoever, apart from its pretty facade. Noisy hotel. Breakfast is served in a makeshift room where the waitresses are wearing down jackets because of the cold, with all the doors open. Avoid at all costs."

"Superb place to stay while exploring the Whale coast. (The only drawback is the traffic in and around Hermanus area; but this is no fault of the hotel!) We went there for our 40th wedding anniversary. Location is tops ... well everything is tops. Atmosphere is relaxed and friendly! Breakfast is absolutely not to be missed. Service both at check-in and -out, AND Breakfast, was unhurried, efficient, friendly and you could just sit back and relax...what you wish for will be brought to you...! Our sea view, ground level room was really spacious, and spotlessly clean, with a glass enclosed patio , and the shower was just a blast! I thought staying so close to a rather busy (possibly noisy?) street might be not nice, but the bustle of the street is hardly noticeable. Parking off street is as safe as you might wish for. I can 100% recommend this place. I recommended this place to friends as good value!"

Grand Lux Boutique Manor Hotels in Hermanus

"Unfortunately my wife was ill and was unable to travel. I reached out to the hotel directly to explain that as my wife was having a major operation and having an unfit to travel document we would very much like to rebook at a later date . However the hotel showed no empathy or sympathy and refused our request . Money is there only consideration putting their own financial gain and profit before a woman undergoing cancer treatment! I will add the only hotel along the garden route that has shown such a shameful attitude. Way goes around comes around !"

The Thatch House Hermanus Hotels in Hermanus

The Thatch House Hermanus

"The Thatch House is incredibly beautiful in every way. From the location, the decor, the food and the service, there is nothing more we could have wished for. Slightly outside Hermanus, we enjoyed the gardens and the peaceful atmosphere. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming."

One Marine Drive Boutique Hotel & Spa by the Living Journey Collection ★★★★
"When applied to a hotel, boutique should mean more than small. It certainly does here! Amazing location on Marine Drive with panoramic view of the bay from our room. Beautifully appointed and furnished room (and comfortably large to boot). This was a luxury stay! The staff were friendly and very helpful. This comes with my highest recommendation."

The place is spotless and quiet. Lots to do in the area, gorgeous beaches and sea coast, spoilt for choice restaurants. Parking available around the lodge. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay"

Harbour House Hotel ★★★★
"We were arranged to stay in the annex building, which is not in the hotel, but on the upper floor of another commercial street after crossing the road! On rainy days, you have to cross the road with an umbrella to have breakfast, which is super inconvenient. There is a smell in the room, which feels like it is old and unventilated. There is a fishy smell when you open the window... We arrived at the hotel at about 8:50. When the nearby restaurant will open the kitchen at 9 o'clock, the front desk of this hotel lied to us and said that their front desk would be off work at 9:30, so we were asked to check in first, resulting in us not being able to eat anything in the end. We had to drive several kilometers to buy McDonald's in the middle of the night The next morning, I complained to the manager. The overall feeling was that the manager was partial to the employees. Knowing that the employees lied yesterday, he just said that he would educate them; I could clearly feel that the main service objects were white people, and the difference in their attitudes towards Chinese nobles and Asians. We were the only Chinese guests in the whole hotel; then our dispute was noticed by the white people passing by, and the hotel manager agreed to let the employees apologize to us (I took a picture of the last irresponsible manager's name tag)"

"We had an amazing stay here. The rooms are super nice and clean , also the owners of the B&B are very hospitality. They tell you all about the good places you need to visit and had some really good recommendations for some restaurants. When you’re planning to go to Hermanus this is the place you need to stay!"

"This place was perfect for us. Very high standard of accommodation built around 2017 with lots of nice touches. Very helpful staff and a very good house dog called Happy ! The owner, Martin introduced us to the property and he and the staff were so nice for our stay . A good breakfast started every day well. It’s a very short walk into town and there’s lots of restaurants and bars to enjoy."

"The decoration of the hotel is very exquisite, in European aristocratic style. The front desk service was very enthusiastic, and the female manager took the initiative to upgrade me to a sea view room on the second floor. As soon as I entered the room, I saw two whales spraying water on the beach on the balcony. It deserves to be called a whale watching town, with sea view + whale, the scenery is really good."
