Ruhige, Zentrumsnahe Lage mit gutem Frühstück und Entertainment.

Wir hatten ein Zweibettzimmer vom 13.11. - 17.11.23. Unser Zimmer war ausreichend groß, wäre aber für Regentage etwas eng. Das Haus selbst liegt in einem Wohngebiet ohne besondere Aussicht, an einer ruhigen Nebenstraße. Es ist zweckmäßig eingerichtet, hat im Innenhof einen Pool und Sitzplätze. Parken ist auf dem Grundstück gut gesichert möglich. Man ist fußläufig über den Cliff Path schnell im Zentrum. Stephan der Entertainer der Küche war immer guter Laune und hat seine täglich wechselnden Frühstücksspezialitäten vorgestellt und alle mit seinen Geschichten gut unterhalten. P/L für die Lage in Hermanus angemessen.

Das WLAN war teilweise schwach. Da könnte ein WLAN-Repeater evtl. helfen.

Penguino Paradise in Hermanus: Outstanding Service, Modern Comfort, and Local Wisdom

The Penguino guest house exceeded all expectations with its outstanding service and modern decor. The prime location allowed us to reach everything on foot, and the owners provided valuable tips on the best things to do in Hermanus. The a la carte breakfast was a delightful touch. Adding to the charm, the owner's sweet dogs brought joy to our stay. Practical amenities like pool towels, TV with access to German channels, and online magazines made our experience truly seamless.

Perfekter Aufenthalt in familiengeführtem Gästehaus!

Die Unterkunft und unser Zimmer waren sehr schön, gemütlich, sauber und wir haben uns direkt sehr wohl gefühlt bei den sehr netten Gastgebern! Wir haben mit unserem kleinen Sohn (10m alt) sogar einen extra Raum zum Frühstücken erhalten, sodass er krabbeln und spielen konnte. So haben wir uns direkt wie zuhause gefühlt! Das Frühstück hat unsere Erwartungen mehr als übertroffen! Sehr empfehlenswert, insbesondere als kleine Familie!

Buen alojamiento en Hermanus

Habitación amplia muy limpia con garaje privado. Desayunos espectaculares.

El baño no está separado del dormitorio por lo que no hay nada de privacidad para hacer tus necesidades. Es muy bonito pero poco funcional

angenehmer ruhiger Ort

Frühstück war lecker und vielseitig, die Gastgeber professionell und freundlich, die Lage der Unterkunft ruhig aber dennoch ist das Zentrum rasch zu Fuß erreicht. Parken war problemlos auf dem gesicherten Gelände möglich. Das Haus ist gegen die Stromausfälle abgesichert.

Leider roch es in den Zimmern etwas muffig und eine Info, dass der Besitzer 2 Hunde hat,, die frei überall herumlaufen wäre gut gewesen, damit Allergiker gegen Haustierhaare informiert sind. Das WLAN hat teilweise Probleme (hängt wohl mit den Stromausfällen zusammen)

Top!!

Super schone en ruime kamer. Wordt iedere dag weer netjes gemaakt. Daarnaast is er iedere ochtend een heerlijk ontbijt die de eigenaar vers voor je maakt. Het is ook persoonlijk omdat de eigenaren er ook rondlopen en geïnteresseerd in je zijn.

Adoramos

Ótima localização, dá para ir andando ao Waterfront, região bem segura. O dono da propriedade é super simpático, adoramos tudo! O café da manhã é muito gostoso! Dá para ver que eles se preocupam com os detalhes do alojamento, o quarto e banheiro decorados com flores naturais.

Nada, super recomendamos

We had a great stay at Penguino Guesthouse.

Nikki and her two fur babies, Harvey and Pippa, gave us a warm and friendly welcome and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The location is great. The breakfast was absolutely divine. Our room was extremely clean and the bedding is of a high quality. A BIG bonus is that the guesthouse has solar power supply and are not affected by the loadshedding. The only suggestion we have is that, in addition to the warm water bottles, there should be heaters or electric blankets in the room.

The best place to stay in Hermanus

if you go to Hermanus. you have to stay here! An incredibly warm welcome, with amazing hosts who have a vast amount of local knowledge and they were so kind. The location was wonderful right near the cliff path. Room was spotless and beautiful, the breakfast was outstanding and better than most hotels we’ve stayed at. I can’t recommend this place highly enough! we had a wonderful time.

nothing at all, it was fabulous

Fabulous property

We arrived at Penguino well before the check-in time and thought we would see if it was possible to leave the car parked there while we went to explore but we were met with a very friendly welcome and shown straight to our room. The house was lovely with the guestrooms situated around the pool. Our room was big and modern, spotlessly clean. The location was an easy walk into town and during daylight you could follow the cliffpath which was beautiful. A great advantage to this property was the solar panels which meant load shedding was not an issue at all. The couple who own Penguino are both lovely, happy to chat and provide lots of local information.

Great place

Everything. The staff, the owner, the room everything was nice.

It was a hot duvet for that night and the mosquito was flying around. But I think it is easy to fix and everything else was great. So I hope we'll come here again for whale watching.
