Really an underrated city. Good restaurants, great pubs, reasonably priced. People are friendly, it's easy to get around. Try the Bru Bar or Beer Shsck for drinks and light meals. Hacklewood Hill Restaurant is great place for fine dining.
Nice town by the ocean. Algoa bay was lovely. Raggy Charters Penguin tour was the highlight with marvelous customer service by very knowledgeable Guide (Lloyd Edwards, a terrific photographer also). Wish we could have stayed longer, so will have to go back!
Port Elizabeth on the Indian Ocean has a lovely promenade and pier for strolls and for visiting the weekend outdoor crafts vendors: lovely African souvenirs. There is a mall in Walmer, part of Port Elizabeth, that reminds one of an American mall. If you want recognizable names, there's Guess and Nike for example. The mall is very large covering all merchandise. It is not a place for souvenirs but for shopping if one has forgotten an essential and nice coffee shops for taking a shopping break. We did not take in museums but there is a Nelson Mandela Museum of Art and the South African Air Force Museum. A day trip to Addo Safari is well worth it! I saw every conceivable African animal except the leopard which tends to be elusive and a night creature.
I stayed in Port Elizabeth for two years. people not friendly. Restaurants poor. not enough to do in Port Elizabeth had to go to Jefferys bay, Sea view terrible Blue horizon terrible. getting around is easy except if there is an accident on the highway. could not find work??? no fun activities. beaches poor
It is a very clean and nice town. I did a mini safari trip while there which was very cool but mainly I went there to participate in Ironman South Africa triathlon race. The odd thing was that everyone in the hotels, both in Port Elizabeth and Cape Town, kept warning me not to walk around after dark on the streets. Yes, there are some shady characters here and there but no worse than any other city. For some reason I did not feel unsafe at all, so I did walk around even late in the evening but did not encounter anything. Maybe I was just lucky or maybe people are just a bit paranoid. Either way, I enjoyed my trip.
“Absolutely awesome up to the smallest detail! I would rather stay here than any other hotel! The staff is super friendly, helpfull and extremely professional! This is a true gem and value for money.. I will pay double rhe amount for the quality you recieve! ”
“Good value for the price and central location to major points of interest in the city.”
“The staff were amazing, Bongi and Portia were really battling to make our stay good.... it's a pity the rest of the hotel wasn't. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom OK.”
“Beautiful cosy hotel with an excellent Restaurant, Spa and Fitness! Staff was very friendly!”
“Excellent location, great food in their restaurants, room was A1, staff helpful and professional. Would definitely stay again when in Port Elizabeth.”
