Our family stayed at this property last week. Before traveling there I reviewed this web site and the hotels website and was quite excited to stay. This hotel is misrepresented on their website and frankly I have to wonder who in their right mind would give this hotel a 4! We arrived at the location and the grounds are beautiful.... More

We stayed at Knysna Hollow which is centrally situated in the heart of The Garden Route and a great place to stay while exploring the Garden Route. We were fortunate to stay in room number 28 which overlooks one of their swimming pools and a beautiful oak tree. The breakfast was delicious and the management and staff were friendly. More

Dissapointed with the Hotel. Probably because we were expecting something much smaller and intimate, but this was a large hotel more suited to Families. The room was old and musty. More

An excellent three star hotel which deserves a higher rating. The rooms are scattered around the site in single-storey thatched roof buildings, grouped around three swimming pools; an idyllic setting in well-maintained gardens. The rooms are clean, large, high ceilinged - you look up into the pitched thatched roof. There is no air conditioning but the large fan located over... More
