Find Hotels in Hermanus, South Africa

This place is amazing! A modern, beautiful, two-story apartment that is fully equipped. A large kitchen, a barbecue place, a huge balcony and fantastic decor. My family and I spent two fabulous nights here. This self-catering hotel is located at a downtown mall featuring Woolworth, Pick'n Pay and other well known chains in South Africa. The place is quiet, safe and close to both the beach and nice restaurants. The staff is friendly, well trained and ready to walk that extra mile to meet guest needs. As an example, our group of seven made a last minute decision to dive with white sharks. We contacted mostly every company in Hermanus and they were all fully booked. The Whale All Suites staff spent one full hour ensuring that we had a private trip with a reliable company. It was one of the highlights of our trip. I would live in this facility. Really. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We only stayed 1 night driving along the Garden Route & this place is a must, what a delight! (Would suggest a 2 night stopover). Room was clean, bed very comfortable & walk in shower great. T/coffee & toiletries provided plus homemade biscuits & port for night cap, a lovely touch! Every comfort was thought of including room heater & hot water bottle if needed, lol! Breakfast was outstanding - fresh fruit salad in pineapple 'basket' plus full breakfast, yummy! Hosts were willing to fulfill your every need - great value for money. Hermanus old harbour town about 10 minutes drive ( can walk along cliffs 45 mins), lovely safe area with some great restaurants. Would recommend 'Fusion' delicious food, good service & great value. And the 'icing on the cake'....we saw whales:) Will highly recommend accommodation & Hermanus.

We stayed for two nights, playing golf at Hermanus Good Club. This is a great location for golf. The staff are brilliant and very friendly and helpful. A free shuttle is provided into town and return flights for meals in the evening. The staff will make recommendations and reserve a table. The breakfast is first class and they are flexible on times if you have an early tree time. A great place to stay.

Pros: Lovely cottage with everything you need for a short break Amazing views all around Very relaxing environment Animals onsite roaming freely - cows, chickens & ducks Staff pick up the cow droppings every morning For a farm, this place in manicured to within an inch of its life! Cottage is spotless and someone cleans your bbq for you every morning (didn’t expect this!) Trustworthy set up - you don’t check in or check out. The cottage is left open for you and you leave the keys there when you leave. There is security onsite which walks around the perimeter with a flashlight. Cons: Not sure if I would have liked to meet someone upon check in as it makes the experience a little more personal (and they can give you tips, advice, etc.) I only wish that I stayed there for longer!!! It would be my ideal dwelling for when retire..

If you plan to visit Hermanus, Sixteen Guest House on Main is a great place. It's close to town centre and the coastal walk is only a block away. From the walk you can be lucky and see the whales. The property itself is clean, well-managed, and overall beautiful. It's only got 5-6 rooms, if you'd like a bit of privacy. Our room was massive, with a little living area. When it's warm outside you can make use of the pool or maybe just catch on your books in the sun. We'd recommend this place to anyone traveling to Hermanus.

My boyfriend and I stayed at this villa for 2 nights and enjoyed our stay so much that at some point, we refused to head outdoors. Lodging/room – The lodging overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and we could watch the whales from the balcony of our room. We stayed in Dolphin room A which was on the top floor. The room was spacious, bright, and clean with white contemporary furnishings. The bed was 5-star standard and extremely comfortable. The shower was also commendable, producing an invigorating flow of water and steady temperature. Free but limited wifi access was available. Food – One of the better breakfasts we have had amidst the high standards set by various lodgings/B&Bs along the Garden Route. There was a wide breakfast choice, continental, Full English, French toasts etc. Service/Staff – Excellent staff who are helpful and prompt in making trip arrangements and restaurant bookings for us. We were also treated to some complimentary wine in the room upon arrival, and the staff brought us hot water bottles at night even though the plush quilt covers were sufficient to keep us warm. Parking – Parking was alongside the beach villa, on the grass patches, not in private lots/garages but safe. We would definitely recommend this beach villa to those visiting Hermanus.

Stayed at the Whale rock lodge for the last 3 nights of a two week trip of a lifetime. Its within walking distance of the old harbour down the beautiful cliff path walk. Spent the day watching whales breaching as we ate lunch. Such a beautiful part of the country, would highly recommend. We will definitely be back, holds a special place for both of us as on the last night we got engaged 😊❤️

We came on a stormy afternoon and were homely welcomed by Desre, who offered us to change the room that we booked to beautiful room which was more suitable to the weather (closer to the warm homely, lounge). The entire place is beautifully designed and decorated! Sitting upstairs, by the fire, in front of the ocean, was magnificent. In the morning we enjoyed a wonderful, rich, breakfast. We would love to come again!

I booked this for my boyfriend who was on on a long road trip and needed a convenient stop-over in Hermanus. Nautilus Cottage did not disappoint! In fact, out of all the places I booked along the route - including places with higher star ratings and much higher prices - the breakfast here was hands down the best. You order breakfast the night before, and then gets cooked when you arrive for breakfast. Great selection of items for breakfast and all cooked to order. The staff had provided heaters in the room, which is an absolute necessity for the chilly and rainy winter weather. The location is amazing, the view to the sea is great and it is easy to find. Very quiet (not sure how quiet in December!) and within easy access to shops, restaurants etc - so all in all very well placed. Room was comfortable, comfy bed. TV a bit small, DSTV channels very limited. Bathroom was great, plenty of hot water - with a heater - good water pressure. Checkin was easy, very warm welcome! The staff were so helpful - I contacted them in advance and they communicated well and made sure everything went smoothly. Parking was not covered but very secure.

We only stayed here for one night as we had booked a boat trip whale watching in Hermanus. The accommodation was nice but most importantly it was clean. We didn't arrive until 6.00pm but a very helpful member of staff checked us in. The breakfast provided was a lot more comprehensive than we had received in previous lodges and this was very much enjoyed and appreciated as we had a long car journey ahead of us. The administrative side was excellent with very helpful and informative information provided before our trip. The directions to find the lodge were excellent. There is a large grassed area next to the lodge for parking. My only irritant was, if you say you offer WiFi, then you should. I was expecting an important email and the only place I could receive any WiFi was in the office area. It was not available in my room. Would I stay here again, yes.

This was a great guesthouse, really comfy and secure with lots of lovely touches and effort by owners. There was a mix up with the room description by the booking agent (said sea views but room did not have)... The owners were really nice and moved us to a room with sea views to make up for it. They also left bubbly and nibbles in the room for us. Very thoughtful. The location was good, handy for shark dive at Kleinbaai and near restaurants (would highly recommend Fishermans Cottage). Delicious and varied breakfast and big comfy beds!
