Zzzone Boutique Hostel
9.0 (5 reviews)

Zzzone Boutique Hostel ★★

📍 4 Harbour Rd, Hermanus

"The nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed in by far in the entire world. Super clean, modern facilities. More like a posh hotel with shared bathrooms than a backpackers. Check in is at the hotel they are owned by I think, just a few doors down from Zzzone. Your bags are transported to your room by the bell hop and they give you a welcome drink. Sea views from the deck and your own mini fridge in your room."

Hermanus Beachfront Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Hermanus Beachfront Lodge

"Thank you !!!! The stay was magnificent from arrival to departure. A most thorough walk through of the room, tv controls, locking the doors - access to the Lodge etc.etc. was most welcome. A view of the beach which took our breath away - we enjoyed the view whenever posible. a walk path along the beach - make it!! See the whales from the Lodge - great fun. The breakfast: Never seen anything like it - espicially the yoghurt and fruits. Dinner? We found the "hopside down" - a very local restaurant - just 100-150 meters away. No large menu but good food and wine we thought. We stayed for 2 days at the Lodge and went to this restaurant both evenings."

Baleia Guest Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Baleia Guest Lodge

"Travelers should be aware that there is major construction and renovation @ this place. I was told upon check in and I stayed one night as it wasn't refunded. Lots of noise, dust and materials all around so it was impossible to sit outside plus the pool was green from all the debris. There really should have been some notification about the work being done."

Whale Rock Luxury Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Whale Rock Luxury Lodge

"The experience at Whale Rock was excellent from check in to check out. Pros (some not mentioned in description)... great breakfast and good options & Service 100%. We stayed in room 4, which was well furnished with a great view. The bed was super comfy. Pool area is great with areas of shade and sun at most times of the day. Staff are excellent and so accomodating, you could not ask for more. Cons If you drive to the hotel using Sat Nav, it can route you through a local "shanty" area, which can be a bit disconcerting, however be 100% assured this is not a problem, as with many places in many places around the world, just be sensible. Drive in and out, or use tuk-taxis after dark and you will be completely safe."

Hermanus Boutique Guest House Hotels in Hermanus

Hermanus Boutique Guest House

"Our go-to place when in Hermanus. Super luxurious accommodation with breathtaking views of the ocean and (subject to the time of year) whales in the bay. A short walk into the centre of Hermanus for restaurants and bars. Our suite was very well appointed, everything you'd expect for a 5-star stay. Breakfast was excellent and cooked to order. A really lovely place to stay in Hermanus."

The Thatch House Hermanus Hotels in Hermanus

The Thatch House Hermanus

"We were in Hermanus for three days at the beginning of March and had an incredibly lovely stay at The Thatch House. We really liked not only the unique location on the lagoon and the peace and quiet that comes with it, but above all the warm welcome and caring service from all team members. It was more like visiting friends than staying in a hotel. Many thanks to Lynn and Rory and all the others for their efforts. The small number of rooms and the attention and care of the individual team members made the visit to The Thatch House an unforgettable experience. The variety of drinks and the quality of the food were great. We will definitely visit The Thatch House again when we are back in the Hermanus area."

Harbour House Hotel ★★★★
"Hotel is centrally situated amidst shopping and eating streets. It is also a 3 min walk to the water front and boardwalk. Staff are good. However, amenities are only soap, shampoo and lotion. No showercap, bedroom slippers, robes, etc. Breakfast is simple but good."

6 Stemmet Lodge ★★★★
"The hotel is a 10-minute walk from the city center. The hostess helped us book a whale watching excursion. It's cold to sleep, but there are warm blankets and an electric blanket. The room has a microwave, kettle, and refrigerator. The breakfast was delicious, and we're especially grateful for that. We forgot our bags at the hotel, and the hotel immediately emailed us. The town is safe, and we walked around at night for the first time in two weeks."

Zzzone Boutique Hostel ★★
"The room was on the second floor of a building in the center of Hermanus. The room was large and clean, and the service was quite good. I booked a suite with a private bathroom, but the bathroom wasn't in the room; it was diagonally opposite, which was very inconvenient."
