Walker Bay Nature Reserve, Western Cape hotel rooms at the Independent

"Lovely stay in Hermanus. It had a very sophisticated charm to it without being pretentious. The lobby was beautiful and had reading rooms with a grand staircase.lively pool area with gardens. Not a big hotel but would summarize as a “decent size boutique” hotel. The staff were all very polite and welcoming. Security was always there with a gate to access the grounds. 8 minute walk to the main center but was right across the street from a lovely Oceanside restaurant and tide pool. Highly recommend everything about this property. "

"Super big rooms and conveniently in a shared area with a mall"

"Quick overnight stay. Was comfortable and service was good. Restaurant served good food. Beds are comfortable. "

"It was good."

"Great size rooms. We had a sea view which was great with a big balcony. Useful to have kitchen facilities and bedroom and en suite were modern. Not a major problem as we only stayed 2 nights but the wardroom shelves couldn’t be used as the bed was in the way of the wardrobe doors opening. Reception staff really friendly and helpful. No food is available although there are kitchens in the rooms and restaurants nearby "

"We had a lovely stay at The Marine. The staff was extremely kind and helpful and the room and lounge were beautifully decorated. Also, it is conveniently located on the cliff path and near the shop, which was perfect. We highly recommend!"

"Poor quality rooms. Bathroom doors are rotten and carpets are stained. Room 206 had a smell similar to a public hospital. The beds are soft and over used."
