It has been one of the worst weeks of my life and I found myself in Mossel Bay without a place to stay. As fate would have it I found myself booked into The Point Hotel. The front desk was efficient and friendly, with Melony able to make great restaurant suggestions for a delicious fresh seafood supper as well as... More

We stayed 1 night at "The Point Hotel" If you want to stay close to the sea, this is the place to be. Just don't forget to ask for a sea facing room. Next time we would give breakfast a miss. There are lots of nice places in Mosselbay where one can eat.

I have stayed in this hotel before, the rooms are lovely with a stunning view. I recently went to their restaurant just for breakfast (we were staying elsewhere at the time). What a disappointment it was when I ordered poached eggs and got my plate full of water and a broken egg yolk. I am working in a four star... More

No contest that the hotel is on a great location, grounds & rooms are kept neat & clean but our experience with the rest was average, one staff member stood out in assisting us. We took the liberty to book a table for dinner at hotel restaurant...what a disaster! The food was appalling, chef/cook did not sell what was on... More

The location of the hotel is fantastic, so nice to fall asleep with the sound of waves breaking on the rocks. I can see where some of the bad reviews are coming from, but hotels this close to the sea will always have problems. I found the establishment well maintained and clean. Food in the restaurant was good and staff... More

We live in Mossel Bay, therefor we do not know what the accommodation is like. What we do know is that the Restaurant is one of the (only 3) restaurants in Mossel Bay worth visiting. Tasy, quality food and very good service. Friendly, well trained staff.

perfect views, sleeping to the sound of the ocean, that´s what makes this place special. the hotel itself is a bit 80´s style, a little makeover would do no harm to this place, but as mentioned above, all possible complaints are nullified due to the view´s and sounds you get in your room.

Very nice view and good breakfast but the price is too much for the quality. Also it is time that the management understands that free wifi Internet connection is expected. It is disappointing to see you have to pay for this service
