We enjoyed our stay at Knysna Hollow Country Estate a lot. The room is very spacious, the garden is beautiful and everything is very convenient. The food at the restaurant was always delicious. The waiting time for the food was a quite long. All in all a very nice Hotel and definitely worth visiting.

Sehr schöne Unterkunft in Knysna, sehr gutes Management.

6/10 Good

Boa estrutura, mas erra no básico

O hotel é muito bonito e bem equipado, mas infelizmente não entrega nem o básico: entra muita luz no quarto, o que prejudica o sono. Além disso, o wifi é terrível. Não consegui conectar no meu quarto, e nas áreas comuns quando conectava a velocidade era sofrível. Por fim, o café da manhã era fraco, e a atenção dos garçons, ruim. Nos 3 dias que estivemos lá nunca nos ofereceram o café na mesa.

Ótima opção em Knysna!

Excelente acomodação e excelente restaurante no local, inclusive aberto para não hóspedes. A equipe bastante atencionsa e preocupada com o bem estar do hóspede. Ponto negativo: a internet funcionou precariamente no meu quarto, e também as atrações que fiz eram em Plettenberg, então a localização não ajudou muito.

Superb in all ways - a must stay!

Knysna Hollow Park is a beautiful location. The level of quality of the rooms and service were second to none - the most beautiful accommodation we have stayed at during our South African holiday. Gardens were an absolute treat also.

We loved this hotel! The grounds, rooms, and restaurant were beautiful and modern. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. Great location in Knysna along the Garden Route!
Kristin, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This Hotel was recently re-built and radically redesigned. The Room that I stayed in was finished to a particularly high standard and was spotlessly clean. It was quiet and very comfortable. The management have paid fantastic attention to detail, if one needs to use the Bathroom during the night then a light automatically comes on to guide you to the loo! Upon arrival I was greeted in the car park by a member of staff who immediately took my baggage and guided me to Reception, where the check in process was friendly fast and efficient. Dinner was very good (I had a Steak Sandwich with a twist) service again was very good. I do however have one small gripe, I ordered the full breakfast and unfortunately the Sausage was not cooked properly and was pink and raw inside, mistakes happen, and I was offered a replacement breakfast without any problems or back chat. This Hotel is well worth a visit and I was very impressed.
