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.

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.

An exceptional hotel
Brand new rooms, well located, rooms set in individual "houses" in beautiful gardens. Two swimming pools. All staff are welcoming, friendly and efficient. The largest selection of sattelite channels of any hotel I've been too. Fantastic breakfast. On site restaurant "Social" has a wide and varied menu which does not disappoint in taste. All this and very reasonable prices for a property of this exceptional nature.

Nice hotel
We stayed only one night. It was a nice hotel, with lovely gardens and pool outside. Everything was great, the room was nice, the staff were friendly, good breakfast buffet. The only thing that bothered us a bit was a strange odor in the bathroom, kind of moth-like, may be found to the lush of green and vegatation around. However, the surrounding of our chalet were lovely and in overall we lime our stay a lot.
