This hotel is in desperate need of a refurb. My Partner and I happened on the hotel, needing one night in Gordons Bay. From outside it looked OK. Once we booked in though we were upgraded to a suite for the price of a standard room, which made us stay. Where do I begin...the place was empty- we felt alone... More

Dont be fooled by the 4 star rating. This hotel must have been acredited in the mid 1990's. I have never been so appalled by such occomidation. Fortunately it was a business trip where we had a conference so it wasn't my money wasted. Without dramatizing or going into too much detail, there were 3 things that I will remember... More

We (I, hubby & 2 daughters) went to Villa Via for a weekend away. We booked a double room (2 huge rooms with full bathrooms), self catering....the rate per night was R1700. The room was clean. However the service was extreamy poor starting from check-in. We were not assisted to unload our lagguage from an under ground dark parking. The... More

The hotel rooms are very spacious and clean. The facilities are good at the hotel. Our rate came with breakfast which was good. Had a dinner in the hotel which was not very good, but along the parade (just outside the back of the hotel) there is a restaurant which serves excellent food. The service was good and they were...

The hotel is right on the water - across from some nice condominiums on one side and the bay on the other. My room, which was non-smoking, was clean and roomy, with a small balcony overlooking the bay. The front desk staff were professional and pleasant. Small exercise room located in a ship-motif room, overlooking the docks. The restaurant served... More

I upgraded to a pool facing suite. The room was clean, modern, and the staff was quite friendly. The gym is very well equiped. Downside was the wind in the pool area. Also, you have to pay for wireless access and the service was intermittent. When I tried to checkout early they asked me to pay for the full reservation,... More

Very nice location right on the seafront, but it can be very windy! Suite style accomodation, huge living area with a kitchen and 500 yards from a supermarket, so you can br flexible with your eating arrangements. Level of staff service excellent, food good and lots of bars etc right on your doorstep. More
