We are currently staying at Harbour House, we have only been here a couple of hours and already have had a bad experience. The lift is faulty and very noisy, after a couple of minutes in our room we realise we wouldn’t be able to sleep there due to the noise from the lift. On contacting reception it was clear they were aware of the noise. Initial they were reluctant to move us saying they were full, we had insist to be moved. Unfortunately the manager was defensive, unfriendly and unhelpful. She tried to make it out that it was our fault as we had chosen this room.

It’s a very well located hotel nearby the sea with huge rooms in the centre of Hermanus surrounded by the incredible views. You can see the whales from the garden and the pool and it’s close to many restaurants.
Amazing getaway at Harbour House

My husband and I booked a long weekend away in Hermanus to relax and decided to stay at Harbour House Hotel. It was an excellent choice. The staff are super friendly and helpful, we even had a nice massage at their salon. The breakfast was great every morning and the room was better than I expected. Will definitely book with them again.
Horrible! Not a pleasant experience.
