Reviews for Mossel Bay Guest House

Review 1:Our specific room (only this one) had no privacy if curtains open, which take a bit of the confort away And no real door between bathroom and bedroom, just a very annoying salon bar swinging door (very heavy) and again for privacy in toilet could do better Sad as otherwise everything was perfect, still definitely recommend it though

Review 2:Stunning view, very nice room and special mention for the warm welcome, friendliness of the manager Kay-Lin, feeling really welcomed, our best stay in South Africa

Review 3:We booked the family room prior to arriving, once we arrived at the guest house we had a 1 minute welcome and were quickly hurried off to our room. Once we walked into the room we were hit with an awful damp smell. The bedding was also damp and smelt horrible since it was kept in a small dark room without any windows. The bedding also made us itch uncontrollably. The breakfast was also cooked in a small kitchen which again was small and although HAD windows weren't opened and the old oil smell from the previous breakfasts which were cooked remained in the surrounding area. All in all if you are only there for the view I would recommend this guest house, otherwise save yourself the trouble and unnecessary expenses and get yourself a proper place.

Review 4:The view of the ocean over the deck was absolutely amazing.

Review 5:everything is great!

Review 6:the whole house looks like a Castle,so beautiful,all the decorations are nice!breakfast is also delicious !most important!outside the window is the sea!

Review 7:We booked 2 rooms . One for me and my husband and 1 for my friend. We arrived and only got 1 room that we shared and still paid full price. Lady at reception said they confused us with other guests.But surely u ask for a surname when guests check in???

Review 8:Beautifully view and very homey.

Review 9:Arranged restaurant booking and valet car transfer..free of charge..very good. I did not have a facecloth in the room...silly request but necessary.

Review 10:Mossel Bay doesn't have much in the way of interest for tourists as for us it was too big and industrial.

Review 11:We really enjoyed the lovely, empty beaches further along the road at Dana Bay. There was also an enterprising restaurateur who ran a shuttle bus to and from his six restaurants and I'd recommend the Villa Pointe restaurant where the kudu osso bucco was delicious.

Review 12:Very messy desktop with assortment of sockets,candles, mosquito plug, etc. Silvering coming off edges of mirror in bathroom. Eighties style ceiling light which looked like it had dust from the eighties still on it. One cup and two saucers for drinks and very dusty plastic container holding tea bags etc. Generally grubby feel to the room - don't book room 2

Review 13:The view

Review 14:Very friendly staff, beautiful house and views, excellent breakfast and lots of local restaurants a short distance away right on the bay. Would stay here again

Review 15:Had to pay for the wi-fi and could only get service in the communual area of the lobby, which obviously was not private.

Review 16:The location was good overlooking the bay, the room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, the food was good,and the staff were very friendly and helpful

Review 17:The way to town is a bit far to walk... Just a few minutes by car!

Review 18:Very nice guesthouse, operated by the very friendly owners! I had a great view over the bay and the Harbour, breakfast was good!

Review 19:NO AIRCON IN ROOMS COMMUNICATION ON BREAKFAST VERY BAD. THE WAITER TELLS YOU ABOUT THE BREAKFAST- NO SAUSAGE BUT BACON IS AVAILABLE, WHEN YOU SAY 1 EGG PLEASE YOU ONLY GET 1 EGG ON YOUR PLATE- NO BACON NO NOTHING. PLEASE REMEMBER TO SAY TO HER YOU WANT EGGS, BACON, MUSHROOMS, GRILLED TOMATOES, ETC. HOLDER WITH COFFEE SACHETS IN ROOM BUT NO CUPS, NO MILK, HOW DO YOU MAKE COFFEE. PILLOWS ON DECK CHAIRS GOT MOULDY STAINS ON, NOT VERY TIDY AT SWIMMINGPOOL AT ALL. SORRY BUT I EXPECTED MORE FOR 4 STAR. NO DSTV ONLY KYKNET. IF YOU WANT ANOTHER CHANNEL PLEASE ASK AND THE OWNER WILL CHANGE IT....

Review 22:Beautiful view of bay and harbour Lots of plants Quiet

Review 23:It hasn't changed at all and is looking a bit tired. The breakfast last time had lovely homemade scones and choice of preserves. This time it was pretty basic. The shower in my room took a while for the hot water to come through! The floor hadn't been cleaned and had to go looking for a cup and saucer and green tea.

Review 24:I stayed here 8 years ago so was looking forward to returning. There is a short 10 min walk to the shops and some restaurants however much further to the waterfront. The breakfast was okay.

The pool was clean, warm and wonderful. The breakfast area was on a deck overlooking the ocean and the food was very good.

Review 57:They need to improve their cleaning standards. In our room there was a dirty glass of wine, garbage in the bathroom bin and a used shampoo package... During the night, other guests knocked in our room door as they found a cockroach in their room and couldn't find any staff to help...

Review 58:The house is great, very well located and with a terrific view.

Review 62:The owner was very nice and gave us good tips as for what places we should visit.

Review 63:Totally we booked 3 rooms, but when we arrived the owner told us he just has 2 rooms available. Of course, he arranged another room in another hotel, but the condition of its is not as good as Mossel bay guest house.

Review 67:In general all services was excellent. The staff and management was very friendly and accommodating. The setting is beautiful. Rooms are beautifully furnished, very clean and spacious. Breakfast was excellent.

Review 68:the whole place smelled a bit musty, and could use some AC or dehumidifier action, but you don't notice after a few minutes. And the bathroom door consisted of these 2 saloon doors (like my parents had in the 70s too) - which made a huge racket every time you walked through them. But this is minor. :-)
