Reviews for The Plettenberg

Just the best hotel

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 19 hours ago

Absolutely stunning hotel. The rooms are elegantly decorated and spacious with great views. The hotel is exclusive without being pretentious and I can highly recommend eating at Amelia’s, their in house restaurant. In particular their seafood platter. As always, what puts a hotel in a league of its own, like The Plettenberg, is the staff. Each and every one we encountered were so professional, friendly and gracious.

Stunning interiors but let down by some poor service

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Hotel is well placed on the bay with super views. We spotted dolphin on a coupe of occasions. Interiors were stunning with a light airy and high quality feel. Staff were attentive and friendly. However there were a few things that tainted what should be a 5 star experience. Staff never got breakfast right on 3 mornings we were there. They don't write the order down. So lottery as to what you actually get or when as had to chase delivery of toast, coffee etc. Even the ops manager got confused. Hotel is bottom of a steep hill so town center is reachable only by car for eating or shopping. They leave empty room doors open on our floor for some reason which slam shut in the wind. Happened each of the 3 days we were there. Properly makes you jump !!. We had an end floor room which was small for the price but at least had a partial sea view. I think the rooms on other side of hotel overlooking the car park would not be so nice. Overall a nice stay. Bit of polish it would have been great

Views to die for

We enjoyed the ocean views from our comfy bed. We could walk into town and to most restaurants. Some disturbance from water running through pipes and bathroom was snug.
