Amazingly beautiful place, friendly staff, but reception could do with a bit more 'tourist information' leftlets or knowledge. I asked about how to get to Fernkloof Nature Reserve but reception didn't know where it was. Only a slight issue - but otherwise a good service. Had a slight problem with the shower not draining water away too quickly.

I passed through Hermanus while on a Biking tour that was taking us cross country from East to west. The hotel is located in a great spot in the centre of Hermanus, with stunning views of either the bay and the sea form both sides of the hotel, depending on which side you stay. The rooms were situated in the... More

We spent only 1 night in Hermanus and found the Harbour House was offerring a winter season special. What a treat. Best location in town. Very nice room (#5), modern and eclectic, yet old world Afrikaaner style as well. Exceptionally clean even though patio area was undergoing renovations. Our friends had another, similar gorgeous room (#6). The views off the... More

My husband and I recently stayed at the Harbour House Hotel. It was a wonderful experience. The staff were helpful, asking us a bout our preferences and giving us the perfect room for us. They recommended cozy restaurants and things to do in the area, thus making our stay an experience and not just another stopover. Thank you Bronwyn and... More

What a super weekend myself and my best friend recently enjoyed at Harbour House Hotel in Hermanus. My expectations of the hospitality industry are high as I am employed by an international luxury hotel group - I am very happy to report though that my expectations were met and exceeded by Harbour House from first email contact to departure after...

Located in the middle of town facing the beach there are plenty of restaurants/eateries/bars around. If you get sea facing rooms you could even see the whales when they arrive. Hotel is very modern as is the room decor and styling. My wife was uber impressed. We had room 12 and it was spacious , well set out and had... More

The Harbour House is excellent in all respects. Location, rooms, staff hospitality all first class. My only comment for improvement is that 11:00am would be a more convenient departure time and a little training with the coffee machine wouldn't go amiss.

Dear Valued Guest Thank you for the great feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. Our check out time is at 11:00, perhaps there was a bit of miss-communication from our part. I trust that you will return to Harbour House in the not so distant future. More

We stayed in the hotel for 4 nights in a luxury room overlooking Walker Bay. The view was breathtaking, the room was big and light and airy and the staff ready to please. We had a superb time and if it hadn't been for other commitments, we surely would have stayed longer! The abundance of restaurants and quaint little shops... More

Checked in here one afternoon after deciding to stay overnight in Hermanus last minute. We were offered a rate of 800Rand for a standard room on a special deal, incredible value for this place! The room was huge; nice bed, tv, sofa, balcony, small kitchenette, good bathroom and parking right outside. Nicely decorated and the staff very polite. We would... More
