Wonderful
We booked this hotel in very short order and were not disappointed. Once inside the gate it is an oasis of greenery and calm. It's quite a transition from wide open non-descript street to find yourself parking by huge rubber plants and beautiful established gardens. The house is incredible and super comfortable - our room was perfect and very big! From the host through to the staff we met this is a friendly, professional and kind establishment.. we loved it and would have no issue whatsoever in recommending this property...

Great short stay in central Walmer
Nice comfortable one night stay in the heart of Port Elizabeth. Well located in central Walmer close to the best coffee shops and dining options. Service and welcome was fantastic and service throughout exceptionally good from all staff members. Feel the furnishings are dated and need some upgrading, appreciate that the style is Victorian however I feel that some of the general areas need upgrading. The rooms were extremely large and well equipped.

Very cute
Excellent staff! Great area. Food was amazing. Room was very nice and spacious… be advised that everything is colonial and vintage, if your style is modern you might not enjoy this. We loved it and would go back in a minute! Parking is a little tight but that’s not even a reason to frown… A++

You’re in for a treat….
A lovely reminder of home. This cosy country house was the perfect stay in Port Elizabeth. Beautiful decor, excellent service and delicious food. Also enjoyed a game of tennis and sitting by the pool with a book and glass of wine. Nothing too much trouble and appreciated the little touches such as a packed breakfast before we went out on a trip.

Old world luxury with excellent service
In PE on business. Needed accommodation unexpectedly. Called last minute and was received extremely well. Spent a restful night after a hectic day on site in spacious, quiet surroundings. Early breakfast was willingly organised so that I could start the day on time. Would not hesitate to stay her again.

Exceptional accommodation, meals and service
An exceptional stay! From the warm welcome, luxurious bedroom and en-suite, to the outstanding three course dinner - and my "most-appreciated": a hot water bottle tucked into my bed after a long day... I would highly recommend Hacklewood Hill!

Oasis
Arriving at the electric wooden car gate you wouldn't have a clue what is behind it. As the door opens you are greeted with a park like setting .... beautiful. The rooms are quite large and a gorgoues Victorian tub awaits you in a well appointed bathroom. We normally put our bags down and head out to explore the town (we only had one night here) but this place was so inviting we just stayed on the property. All staff offered fabulous service- happy, kind and attentive. We had one of our best dinners here. our waiter was fantastic and the food was spectacular- no rush to go anywhere. The breakfast I would also say was 5 stars. lots of yummy choices which was a surprise in a small establishment. We left after spending 14 hours here refreshed and ready to continue our journey. As far as Port Elizabeth is concerned, the people are very friendly and welcoming, but the city isn't very exciting. The main road along the ocean needs some warming up . We walked through the board walk and the place seemed like a ghost town maybe we just missed the rush. Richmond Hill had quite a few high end restaurants that looked very inviting. I would check that out if you are there for an evening.
