Hoedjiesbaai - Dated but excellent views

The hotel is extremely dated but the sea facing rooms with the balcony have excellent views. This is a 2 star hotel and you pay for what you get. Therefore the hotel lived up to 2 star expectations with 5 star views

Best holiday I've had in a long time. The view from our spacious room is breath-taking. Lovely beach for walks and swimming. Hotel staff and locals are friendly. It was very hot sitting on the balcony of the second floor as there is no umbrella or a stand for an umbrella.

One horrible night!

When we entered the room a massive bad smell welcomed us. Bed sheets and duvet was used by the previous GUESTS. We have covered the bed with our private beach towels in order not to get in touch with the bed. Since we stayed there only one night from 22:00 to 7:30 in the morning we haven’t bothered to complain. Through this kind of hotels you learn to valuate clean hotels.

Worse holiday ever

My experience was very bad, I will not recommend anyone to attend as it looks rundown form the outside, and the place inside and outside has a terrible smell. The building looks dilapidated from the inside. We left a day earlier as we couldn't stand the smell anymore. There's nothing to do, nothing to see or to attract people... no pool, absolutely nothing.. was totally boring.

My stay was fair - only really used the room for showering and sleeping as we were at Tabakbaai for the entire weekend and only came to the hotel to shower and sleep. The bathroom kept flooding from the shower that I found a bit unpleasant as I nearly slipped on two ocassions.

Hoedjiesbaai in Saldanha Bay

Went to Saldanha Bay for a night and booked rooms at the Hoedjiesbaai Hotel, didn't really know what to expect, however I wouldn't go back, as its basically a small fishing port with nothing much going for it. The hotel itself was quite disappointing as its old and run down. However the rooms were clean and the staff fairly helpful and the parking area has a security guard overnight, so if you just need a decent room then it will suffice. We weren't brave enough to try the restaurant so went to the Protea Hotel for dinner instead. We also didn't go the breakfast option which sounded expensive at 90 rand per head and instead drove to Paternoster and had brunch there instead - much nicer!

Enttäuschendes Hotel aus den 70er Jahren

Leider eines des wenigen online verfügbaren Hotels vor Ort. Die Klientel scheinen eher einheimische "Handlungsreisende" zu sein als ausländische Touristen. Die Ausstattung ist veraltet und leider zudem ungepflegt. Der Blick auf den Strand ist durch Müll getrübt. Das Frühstück war von bescheidener Qualität. Preis/Leistung habe ich bei anderen Gelegenheiten in SA wesentlich besser erlebt.
