Knysna Hollow Country Estate

We have Been in South Africa a while now. This is by far the best hotel we have stayed in. Beautiful quiet setting. Great rooms. Amazing food and superb staff. We had a problem with our phone and somebody was here within about 30 seconds ! Ordered room Service food which back home in the uk would of been about 4 times the cost and a quarter of the quality. The food is absolutely superb. Everyone of the team here has been friendly smiley and helpful. I can’t recommend this place enough.

This is a lovely hotel about 5 minutes drive from the centre of Knysna. The rooms are clean, spacious and well-appointed. The resort is quiet and relaxing with very friendly staff. There are outdoor swimming pools and a lovely bar area with a good choice of drinks. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice!

We enjoyed our stay at Knysna Hollow Country Estate a lot. The room is very spacious, the garden is beautiful and everything is very convenient. The food at the restaurant was always delicious. The waiting time for the food was a quite long. All in all a very nice Hotel and definitely worth visiting.

Open app Your location Knysna Hollow Country Estate 5 Welbedacht Ln, Kanonkop, Knysna, 6570 Hotel Maqbool Jamdar 129 points   5 hours ago Spent 2 nights at this hotel ( not sure where the country estate comes from). Rooms not bad in size, plus is the big bathroom with walk in shower and l'Occitane bath accessories which is different from other hotels. Nice location but away from the Knysna waterfront. Quiet location and nice gardens with 2 medium sized pools and small play area. They have padel courts but this must be booked through another company for hire of court and equipment. Downs: Very limited breakfast, buffet style with small selection of scrambled , tomatoes, hash browns NO halal options which is a big negative. Most of the other hotels around here have this and a area where they provide omelettes At this hotel you have to pay extra for an omelette, Really?? If you are looking for a halaal friendly hotel then rather look elsewhere as what you pay is nice for hotel and room but not for food. We usually stay at Fancourt and this place is far from that in terms of experience. Agree that this gives you value for money but the kids wanted additional things for breakfast compared to what was offered. Reminded me of some of the business hotels I've used for work which offer the basics for the business traveller for breakfast. Was worth trying it out but maybe not for us.Lovely lady at reception who i chatted with regarding my concerns and it seems I'm not the only guest who has commented on the food offering.

We had 3 nights at Knysna Hollow, a modern small up market hotel built on the site of a previous establishment destroyed by fire in 2017 (I think). The rooms are spacious and comfortable with air conditioning, fridge, tea/coffee making facilities, a safe and TV (which we couldn't understand how to work, it's very technical). Having said that, who needs a TV in a place as good as this? The electric sockets are South African, not international - if you need an adaptor you can get one from reception for a small deposit. There are 2 swimming g pools, 4 boules pitches and a padl Court. Meals were all very good at dinner and breakfast and a good wine list with very reasonable prices. The staff, without exception, were cheerful and friendly. You can hire a bicycle to cycle into Knysna, though it's along quite a busy road. I can highly recommend this spot!

Lovely place to stay, friendly staff and very relaxing. We stopped off here and stayed for 3 nights on our trip along the garden route. The food was very good, especially the burger! Very clean, spacious room and bathroom! We would certainly return!
