The atmosphere at the Paxton hotel was amazing - all the staff was so friendly to me and always smiling. My dinner was also quite good, nothing extraordinary but it was warm and fresh and fast. The ocean view is really lovely and the rooms were clean and perfectly equipped. The beautiful consierge even let me stay at the pool after my checkout :)

We spent one night here, arriving at about 20:00 after a long flight. Our room was quite nice, but a bit old, it had a small verandah and a kitchenette. Breakfast was good. The location is very good, between the airport and the sea. There is private parking. The owner is very kind and she went the extra mile calling her friend and even a friend of her friend to let us know how to find the bench with Mandela statue at University. They have some lights and wi-fi working during loadshedding, that it’s very important.

Probably my worst hotel experience ever taking into consideration I travel for at least 4 months out of the year. The Boardwalk had so much potential when it opened and I attended a tourism expo at the hotel amd everything was top notch. Now it is run with virtually no services being offered in the restaurant and staff seem to think they on vacation. Rooms are rundown and seem old in need of freshening up. Food is below calibre some of the worst food I have eaten in my life.

We had an absolutely great Cape Trip with no terrible rooms, all 5star in their own way. But No. 5 and Swartberg Manor were our two best. No. 5 was an awesome! value. It was easily our best room physically in are whole trip. Spacious!, clean, quiet and peaceful. We were put up in the 3 room annex across the street, room number 10, it was huge and well appointment. Crossing the street for breakfast was no big deal, in return we had a house with only 3 quests, total peace and quiet and pool virtually to ourselves. The food was outstanding for dinner, and the breakfast superb! They made hot breakfast 20 min early for us (06:40) to facilitate our daytrip/safari at Addo Elephant. Unbelievable service. Art work is a great touch making this a unique place. Great service all around, but Nick the desk manager who we interacted with the most was superb. Attached some pics of the Annex.

Outstanding
GGenieBWow I must say we were warmly greeted at the door and treated so very kindly. Nomi who was absolutely cheerful and kind to us. She was definitely one of the best parts of our stay. Walking into the beautiful garden filled with the aroma of different scents of roses. The room was so immaculate and the location is perfect. Thanks for allowing us to have such a wonderful stay.
Really nice guest house with lovely gardens and swimming pool (if you have the time, set in a nice area). Room was large and the bed was very comfortable, nice sheets and pillows. Quite a lot of storage although only here for one night, fridge with complimentary bottles of water, tea and coffee. Breakfast was good. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Private parking within the grounds. Really good pizza/pasta restaurant with a bar vibe literally about a couple of minutes walk away but suggest you drive there and park outside in the secure parking with the guy looking after your car (drive back through small streets so if you have had a small drink you should be ok). Would highly recommend if passing through.
Excellent experience nothing to add all was good. Value for money,friendly staff very helpfull,rooms was very spaces and clean, location of guesthouse made me feel very save,love the indoor swimming pool
PPaetzoldWe have stayed here many time because it is a beautiful building in an excellent location. The general staff are outstanding and the food and rooms are amazing. Unfortunately the front desk is just not the same as the rest of the experience. When I wrote in to ask for an early check in I got no reply- on my arrival I asked about this and was told because I got no reply that means it’s fine. I find this odd as I explained that we were arriving after a three part flight over 18 hours. We have stayed here at least 3 other times and my comment for each time would be pretty much the same - I feel the front desk could do better to Mach their rest of the experience.
First of all, when you walk into this hotel, it's absolutely breathtaking. Service - You are greeted with a friendly and professional receptionist. I am happy with the service that we received... BUT the after hour receptionist is completely rude and never at the desk. I'm hoping that management will make a replacement. I've had my fair share of visiting hotels and there should always be someone at the front desk. This person should have a good and professional attitude. Instead the man who I called to the front desk was clearly tired and irritable. Rooms - Elevator, television, wifi, a large bathroom, excellent water pressure, soap etc is provided, extremely clean, comfortable bed, large vanity and a massive air conditioner. The rooms are smaller than what we are used to but it's cozy. Load shedding - So unfortunately the air conditioner switches off during load shedding. During this time we were suffering from the unbearable heat. I'm hoping the hotel will upgrade to larger generators. View - Quite a small window, you cannot see the view from your bed which is dissapointing considering we paid extra for an ocean view. Price - R 1450 for a beach view bedroom My opinion... Is it worth it? That would depend on your budget. I usually stay at the Courtyard Hotel which has a balcony, gym, impeccable 24hr service and massive rooms. They charge R1990 per night. If that's what you can afford then I reccomend Courtyard hotel. Town lodge is excellent for a budget price.
Gguangyu22I have no complaints about the hotel. While not exceptional, it was pleasant. The location was excellent. There were numerous restaurants within a short walking distance. The beach walkway was very close by. If you feel like eating at McDonald’s, it’s very close by. Our room was comfortable. The breakfast buffet was good.
GGuest UserI stayed at the hotel for 5 night, what a pleasant stay I had. Friendly warm reception staff, The rooms are clean, enough soft towels, big spacious shower, delicious food. Restaurant and house keeping staff always wearing beautiful welcoming smiles.
GGuest UserThe apartment complex was perfectly located with a secured beach access and was the only one located so close to the beach in the area. The apartment itself was lovely but could do with a freshen up with paint and paying closer attention to the little things that need to be repaired or replaced such as broken blinds. Overall it was a lovely space with hot water and high speed wifi
