The breakfast set out on the balcony was lovely. The service was good, however the quality of a couple of items did not match the setting. Orange juice was not freshly made, bacon reheated, eggs cooked as requested.

The location on the water and under the mountains is exceptional. Great ingredients cooked superbly were just what we needed after several 'fine dining' experiences! Fantastic staff who could not do enough for us.

Hermanus is a beautiful quiet city.
Hermanus is a beautiful quiet city. Close to many Shopping Malls and not even crowded.
Our host, Kosie, went out of his way to make our stay in Hermanus memorable. Even concerned about our safety when the storm wreaked havoc in other parts of the Western Cape. Kosie, along with the owner of the accommodation, advised us to stay an extra night, free of charge and to rather travel home when it was safe to do so.
Kosie and Owner, thank you so, so much for concerning yourself about your guests and put their safety ahead of monetary gain. Will definitely return to Hermanus, Voelklip for my next vacation.

Hermanus is a lovely coastal town with a great array of eating and drinking establishments. It has a nice feel about it and i wouldnt worry about walking around it on my own. The views are stunning and during the Whale Watching season it is truly breathtaking. There are some beautiful winerys around and lots to do. If you're coming over from the UK its great value for money.

Friendliness of everyone was awesome.
Friendliness of everyone was awesome. Everywhere you went you felt safe and welcome. Very easy to get around. Loved the hiking trails. A must-have is comfortable shoes and clothes for all weather types, because you walk a lot and the weather changes very fast.
I loved the friendly, home-like atmosphere. The location right on the beach was sensational. Above all, the staff definitely were brilliant. They were extremely pleasant and helpful. Particularly impressive were the breakfasts. We would arrive to a beautifully set table and the food was brilliant. Fresh fruit and yoghurt was so superior to that provided in the smorgasbord breakfasts provided by big hotels. Then there were the superbly cooked a la carte hot dishes. It was a great start to the day.
Fabulous clean and secure gated property. Wish we’d had longer - it’s the perfect location to explore Hermanus. There are five 2 bedroom townhomes around a paved courtyard and walled pool. The property is new and well appointed with open plan layout, modern furniture, crisp sheets, great towels and everything else you might need for a comfortable stay. Woolworths is on the next block for stocking up with fresh produce and restaurants, bars, places of interest are all in walking distance.
Everything about the hotel is good! Very comfortable rooms which are tastefully decorated. Very friendly and helpful attentive staff.
Restaurant cuisine is tasty and well priced.
Senior management are hands on to ensure top quality service.
Wonderful central location in Hermanus overlooking the sea within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants and coastal path. There is nowhere better to stay in Hermanus.
if you go to Hermanus. you have to stay here!
An incredibly warm welcome, with amazing hosts who have a vast amount of local knowledge and they were so kind. The location was wonderful right near the cliff path.
Room was spotless and beautiful, the breakfast was outstanding and better than most hotels we’ve stayed at.
I can’t recommend this place highly enough! we had a wonderful time.
We had the most amazing stay at The Whale's Tale. This absolutely beautiful guest house exceeded all our expectations. Evelyn is a warm and very welcoming host. Our room was huge and very luxurious, with a sea view and beautiful balcony with sun loungers and seating area. Breakfast was delicious. Next time we visit Hermanus, we will definitely stay here for more than one night
The house was open and spacious. We only had one night here, but had we stayed longer we would have made use of the outdoor space. It felt very safe and was quiet. The mall was an easy drive just minutes away to get supplies and we could head back to Cape Town with just a few turns as this is on the far west side of Hermanus.
The rooms were enormous and very comfortable, the dining room was beautiful, the food was delicious and the staff were so friendly and helpful especially Michaela and Gaynor. We enjoyed playing tennis on the court which has amazing views. It was such a relaxing and calm hotel to stay in. 10 minute drive into hermanus.
Lovely boutique hotel right next to the Hermanus centre! The room has amazing sea views with a nice balcony and all the necessary amenities. Everything is clean, fresh and well thought! The lovely manager, Gilbert, made our stay even more enjoyable thanks to his help and friendliness !! The breakfast is great
We had a very comfortable room with sea view, for which we paid a little extra. There was secure parking for our car within the hotel grounds and staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was plentiful and varied.
Charming French style ambience, beautiful garden in the courtyard. Awesome breakfast included in their adorable cafe next door. The location just steps down the street from the waterfront provided sea views from the hotel.
Clean spacious room. Comfortable bed. Apartment room at back of hotel. Awesome breakfast with breathtaking view of the ocean. Enjoyed our stay at Windsor in Hermanus. Will recommend and return.
Comfortable and clean hotel rooms located within a 5-10 minute walk into town.. The host was kind enough to let us drop our bags off early in the morning before checking in.
Excellent. Very safe area. Hermanus is really a gem of a town! go out explore, there are caves near Gansbaai 20 minutes away. Walking on the beach at sunset is a must.
