We were positively surprised how nice the hotel was. Beautiful design of every detail, friendly staff, excellent food and stunning views of the mountains. I wish we could spend a few more nights there as the city looked very cute and worth exploring.

My recent stay at the luxury self-catering pods was a tranquil escape that surpassed all expectations. From the moment I arrived, the setting is a hidden gem, perfectly blending luxury with nature. The pods are nestled in a quiet, scenic area, providing a sense of privacy and peace that's hard to find. Each pod is beautifully designed, with attention to detail evident in every corner. The interiors are modern yet cozy, featuring high-quality furnishings, soft linens, and a fully equipped kitchenette. I especially loved the large windows, which allowed natural light to fill the space and offered stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The private deck was my favorite spot, perfect for sipping my morning coffee or enjoying a cup of tea under the stars. The self-catering aspect was ideal, giving me the freedom to enjoy my stay at my own pace. I could prepare meals using fresh local ingredients or choose to explore nearby dining options without feeling bound by a schedule. Overall, the pods offer a perfect mix of comfort, privacy, and natural beauty. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway, a peaceful retreat, or a unique stay close to nature, this is a place I highly recommend. It’s a true sanctuary for relaxation and unwinding.

    It is a very neat little town with quaint houses and buildings everywhere. The views are spectacular and the town is clean. We found the staff were very friendly wherever we went. We stayed there from a Sunday to Thursday and the only issue we had is that quite a few businesses were closed until the Wednesday.

    Wasn't fully prepared for the cold. Thankfully the pubs and restaurants had fabulous wood burning fires. People of Clarens, shop and restaurant owners,are so warm and friendly. A variety of activities from shopping to hiking or just enjoying a cold one in the pub. The new dinasaur exhibition centre, unveiling the rich history of Clarens, is a must.

    The overall atmosphere was great and laid-back—perfect for a holiday. However, the Koporasie Restaurant was a major disappointment. The staff lacked attention to detail and showed poor customer service. Most concerning was the hygiene standard, which urgently needs improvement. In this day and age, there’s no excuse for cockroach sightings, especially with the many effective pest control measures available. For me, seeing a cockroach in any food establishment is an absolute deal-breaker—I walk out immediately.

    Probably the most thoughtful and well-designed hotel I have stayed in. It perfectly marries the professionalism, anonymity as well as the gamut of offerings such as breakfast, in-house restaurant, spa etc., synonymous with traditional hotel stay, with the charm and informal characteristics of Airbnbs. The decor is a feast for the eyes. The Hotel is nestled in a valley and offers breathtaking 360 views - I surmise that is where it gets its name from. Staff are amazing. Incredible value for money.

    The facilities were great, beds comfy, enough wood for making fires when it got chilly. Enough space to do what you wanted if you wanted some alone time. Paths cut for walks on the farm were perfect. Kitchen equipment and cutlery was great for a house full of foodies. Close enough to Clarens to pop in and out. Pups had a blast and were able to run and play.

    The staff were all very friendly. The views were beautiful. The food was excellent, I had the lamb chops two days in a row because of how good it was. The hotel is located very well right outside the town of Clarens and close to the Golden Gate park as well. I really enjoyed the stay
