"We only stayed one night, but the experience was really nice. They gave us good recommendations about where having dinner, the beds were comfortable and fluffy and they prepared us a wonderful breakfast to take away. What's more, they have a beautiful pool with amazing views. If you are travelling to Knysna, you already know where to stay 😎"

"Incredible stay nestled in the heart of SA. The team will go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. Special shout out to Dale at the restaurant for going above and beyond in getting vegetarian options for my wife."

"Great hotel but room decor and beds could be better / modernised. I have a really sore lower back as a result of what must have been a very old (unsupportive) mattress. Breakfast was amazing. Staff helpful and friendly. Room rates a bit pricey and aimed at tourists. There should be a reduced rate for locals / South Africans."

"The cottages are beautiful, neat, spacious and great location. The beach is nice and clean and ideal for long walks. Restaurants in the area are good too."

"The room was spacious with a king bed and working desk with room heater. There was not really a view but it didn't really matter"

"The lodge was nice and staff were lovely. However, the lodge lacked basic amenities which I feel they need to improve on. Areas of improvement; - water to be supplied in each bedroom - Phone to call reception should be in each room - Breakfast should include water to drink. Especially if you have booked as bed and breakfast - Snacks should be available throughout the day not just when the chef is there as some guests check in post 2pm."

"Wonderful people, Wonderful experience! The manager with her team was exceptional. Very helpful and welcoming. The rooms were spacious and clean and every amenity you can think of. Breakfasts start with a continental, followed by a cooked one. Cannot recommend Maria and the team, and the luxury of Orange Inn enough."

"Large rooms, well furnished. With a wide veranda to sit. Nice view of the beach and ocean. No communal kitchen but lovely restaurant downstairs. "

"Open app Your location Knysna Hollow Country Estate 5 Welbedacht Ln, Kanonkop, Knysna, 6570 Hotel Maqbool Jamdar 129 points   5 hours ago Spent 2 nights at this hotel ( not sure where the country estate comes from). Rooms not bad in size, plus is the big bathroom with walk in shower and l'Occitane bath accessories which is different from other hotels. Nice location but away from the Knysna waterfront. Quiet location and nice gardens with 2 medium sized pools and small play area. They have padel courts but this must be booked through another company for hire of court and equipment. Downs: Very limited breakfast, buffet style with small selection of scrambled , tomatoes, hash browns NO halal options which is a big negative. Most of the other hotels around here have this and a area where they provide omelettes At this hotel you have to pay extra for an omelette, Really?? If you are looking for a halaal friendly hotel then rather look elsewhere as what you pay is nice for hotel and room but not for food. We usually stay at Fancourt and this place is far from that in terms of experience. Agree that this gives you value for money but the kids wanted additional things for breakfast compared to what was offered. Reminded me of some of the business hotels I've used for work which offer the basics for the business traveller for breakfast. Was worth trying it out but maybe not for us.Lovely lady at reception who i chatted with regarding my concerns and it seems I'm not the only guest who has commented on the food offering. "
