    We could not fault it.

    The location on the water and under the mountains is exceptional. Great ingredients cooked superbly were just what we needed after several 'fine dining' experiences! Fantastic staff who could not do enough for us.

    Length of stay!

    The Thatch House exceeded our expectations. I'd recommend anyone looking at this property to take a look at their website for imagery, these do not do it justice! Staff we excellent and consistently went above and beyond. Our only disgruntle is that we only booked for 1 night! We'll certainly be returning and cannot wait to do so.

    From the website we thought there was a gym on site. It states fitness centre on booking.com and cardio gym in the on-site guest info. This wasn’t the case. This was the only fault we could think of.

    Absolutely stunning! One of the most impressive hotels we’ve ever stayed in. All rooms had incredible decor. The property oozed luxury. The service and food matched the surroundings.

    Just the Wi-Fi was too slow. Maybe to improve: a jacuzzi would have been ideal in such lovely place!

    After many years travelling and staying at many hotels we can only say: THAT Was THE HOTEL! Very quite location, in front of a lagoon. The room was enormous and fantastic, really comfortable, with all Kind of details (including books!!!). The common areas were as well do cozy and well decorated. Dinner & breakfast really good. But the best... The employees! Thanks for everything, it was FANTASTIC!

    Beyond Luxury: A Haven of Heartfelt Hospitality at The Thatch House Hermanus
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Junior Suite with Mountain View
    • Stayed 2 nights

    If there's a place that epitomizes the pinnacle of hospitality and attention to detail, it is The Thatch House Hermanus. My stay here was nothing short of magnificent, from the grandeur of the premises to the nuances of their service. Firstly, let’s talk about the food. Every meal was an exquisite journey of culinary delight, masterfully crafted and presented. The flavors, the freshness, and the creativity left us eagerly anticipating every subsequent meal. However, what stands out most from our stay was an unexpected turn of events that showcased the exceptional character of this establishment. We inadvertently left behind a pair of shoes upon checkout. Before panic could even set in, Kim, a true gem of an employee, was on top of it. Not only did she promptly locate the shoes, but she ensured they were shipped back to us in record time. Such gestures of genuine care and professionalism are rare and speaks volumes about the ethos of The Thatch House Hermanus. A hotel can be luxurious, but it's the people and their unwavering dedication to guests that truly elevate an experience. Thank you, Kim, and the entire team at The Thatch House, for making our stay memorable in more ways than one. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking an unparalleled experience in hospitality. We will certainly be returning!
