Garden in the middle of PE

Checkin was hassle free. We were led to our amazing rooms and even went to have scrumptious dinner at their on house bistro. Rooms are spacious and well equipped. There is a mini bar for those who need something to nibble on in the middle of the night.

Nice stay in Port Elizabeth

Very nice place and good food. Only problem we had is when we came for the continental breakfast, we sat in Leo’s restaurant and the waitress brought us a menu that had prices on it, so we thought we had to pay for a hot breakfast. She never told us otherwise. My husband ordered an omelette anyway. I did not order anything thinking that the little muffin and small bowl of fruit would be ok. When we went to leave and pay for the omelette, the waitress called another lady and she informed us there was no charge for any of the hot breakfasts if we were staying there. I was not happy as I would have ordered a full breakfast if I had known it was included. The guests should be told when they sit down, so they have a choice. I was quite upset over this as we were driving all day and it would have been nice to have had a good breakfast.

Port Elizabeth Hotel Lodge

A pleasant location within a secure compound about 7 km from the centre of Port Elizabeth. Spacious rooms with good-sized bathrooms. Breakfasts were substantial and evening meals good value. The only negative points were that the pillows were uncomfortable and the patio areas at the rear of each chalet needed to be tidied.

Pleasant stay apart from breakfast!

The room was on the dark side so could have been better lit. The breakfast was tastless, cold & unhygenic. With no coverings on any of the cold meats & cheeses - it was a flies paradise! When buffet breakfast was out this was cold, greasy & fatty. Did not like the breakfast so had all our meals at other destinations.
