to get started.

The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff together with great accommodation.

Stanton, South Africa

The house is a beautiful, vintage, authentic and comfy experience. The rooms are very clean and has all the facilities needed. The breakfast was nice.

Mohammed, Egypt

Loved the rooms, spectacular decoration and ambiance. Great breakfast!

Enrique, South Africa

The manager and staff certainly go the extra mile. We had a lovely stay at this beautiful property.

Anonymous, South Africa

Rooms were very clean. Staff excellent and attentive. Lovely setting.

Candice, South Africa

Linda, the friendly and efficient front of house, was most helpful and even offered a ground floor room without us asking when she noticed me limping as she was concerned that the stairs to the first-floor room which was intended for us might pose a problem. Chef Natasha's food was fantastic.! What impressed was that unlike other fine dining experiences my wife and I had at other restaurants, the courses were not only delicious but the portions were also generous. The Cajun Pork Neck I had for my main course was the best I have ever had. My wife was equally satisfied with her Blue CheeseBeef Fillet Medallion. The Chocolate Lava Pot we both had was to die for. The Salmond Roses we had as breakfast starters were a pleasant surprise and are highly recommended.

Niel, South Africa

Bed was extra comfy - love the spaciousness and the real old world chard

Judy, South Africa

The staff made you feel welcome & special from the moment you arrived. Everything exceeded our expectations. Great place to spend 1st night in South Africa after overnight flight from UK. Left next morning fully refreshed and relaxed

Mark, United Kingdom

Friendly staff, great food and awesome, clean accommodation! Couldn't fault anything other than the unfortunate event of load shedding.

Jessi, South Africa

This place is like a hidden gem, tucked away among the trees. From the entrance gate you wouldn't expect what's hidden beyond. Small and quiet. Huge comfortable bathroom. I like that it has both bath & shower. Very good service. Very friendly staff. Excellent food.

Unfortunately they don't have a generator to power all the rooms which is understandable however they didn't have any back up battery powered lights for example to help out during load shedding.
Friendly staff, great food and awesome, clean accommodation! Couldn't fault anything other than the unfortunate event of load shedding.

My only gripe - is the difficulty to get a tax/uber. Be prepared for a wait a while or use your own car. Quite a distance from the seafront, so no sea views here.

I’m rather tall so the bed length was a bit short but it is a historical 4 poster so I understand the constraint.
The fact that you can get a dinner of that quality on site is fantastic.

“The best and only place to stay in Port Elizabeth. Can't wait to come back.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Luxury Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
Only small things to fault: Hollandaise sauce with salmon breakfast needed improvement and the rocket in certain dishes was a little gritty. Otherwise everything, including restaurant and its food, fantastic.
I grew up in Port Elizabeth and had a childhood ambition of staying at this hotel, so it was great to come back years later and find it has only improved on my memories. Service: excellent from everyone, especially Wynand and Vuyo. Rooms: Charming old-world decor, spacious (especially the bathrooms) and spotless clean. Bed was very comfortable. Rooms have all electrical socket outlets (including USB) and small touches like a welcome plate of sweets and a glass of sherry before bed. Atmosphere: The hotel is quiet and refined and is absolutely incredible value for money. Great place for romantic/special occasion dinners and food is very good for PE. Proud to say my home town has an establishment of this excellent quality. Cannot wait to come back and stay again.
