One of the most beautiful hotels in our experience. Elegant african style. Room design (bathroom especially) is brilliant, we enjoyed it so much! Restaurant is great also.

The hotel is positioned in a great place. It's walking distance from the Knysna waterfront and local restaurants as well as the mosque for Muslim worshippers.
Rooms were tidy and well kept.
The hotel does not have back up power during load shedding. This includes no Wi-Fi. A single battery light is provided in the room.

The front picture shows the “old Rex hotel” not the. re one - small rooms. No facilities during loadshedding
No place for dinner. No coffee available during loadshedding.
ONE light bulb the only light in room during loadshedding.
the 4 star rating is a joke! Dont waste your money here!!!
unfriendly staff - did not feel safe in rooms!
The hotel allowed a mass group of people (not sure if anyone was actually staying in hotel) to use the pool area during loadshedding
2 x large cooler boxes of alcohol and 3 x cases of Corona
beer!
the party and noise was next level!
we left the hotel and booked into Pezula Hotel and Spa and we were in bliss!
we have stayed in the old Rex hotel before and will NEVER stay here again!
Terrible! Absolute rip off!!

Good shower, breakfast ok, location
The city was hit by load shedding. We got without electricity over 8h a day. We understand it is a country problem but a hotel that charged us ZAR1800/night must have a generator. Also the cleaning in the room is very poor under the bed...what we could see is not worth mentioning what we found. The hotel is in great location but needs improvement

It was awesome location close to everything ....
