Thank you for a fabulous evening. The room was spotless, the bed was super comfy and the restaurant food was excellent. Fabulous staff all around and generally a wonderful experience.

This is the perfect hotel for a family break. The staff were super accommodating and kind to the children. The games room in the loft proved to be a huge hit as well as the padel court.We ate at the hotel both evenings and were once again, so impressed with the food as well as the service.

Houw Hoek is a great place to stay, the breakfast is great and family suite quite big. The facilities are amazing entertainment for children, my kids loved it. There could be improvement on the cleaning as the rooms have a carpet which gets quite stuffy.

Staying at Houw Hoek is always a pleasure - the staff are polite, friendly and cheerful, the food is very good, the rooms large and beds comfortable, and the location lovely (not to mention being so close to the Houw Hoek farm stall across the road!)

Location is beautiful. Really great child friendly hotel. You can sit on your patio while kids enjoy one of 2 outside pools. Great games room with arcade games. Also has a large park with a trampoline. There is a putt putt course for older kids or adults. Nature trails for hiking or runs. Spa for massages and other beauty treatments. Breakfast buffet was great. Restaurant is reasonably priced for dinners. But food can take some time getting to you.

Staff at reception seems to have a bit of an attitude. Not very friendly. Almost like they are paying you to stay. The location is good and quiet. Room service food was a bit of a letdown. No cutlery. The food was cold. Not recommend. Breakfast was very good. Got woken up at 7am by gardening work. When I called reception, they told me it is next door. That is it,deal with it... If I stay again. Big if then I will take my own food with me for dinner. And earplugs for the noise.

I was thoroughly disappointed by staff service. Their service was poor and they treat people according to the skin colour.
