It had been absolutely wonderful.
From the moment of arrival, the staff go out of their way to make your stay as convenient and comfortable as possible. The quality of the customer service and professionalism can certainly compete on an international level. The food is top notch and the options they offer to eat and drink are unlimited and make your choice "difficult". It was my birthday weekend and from the moment I made the reservation, efforts were made to find out what they could do to make it special. Finally - Mieke, the receptionist, has a lot of potential to go far in her profession. She radiates a passion for her work and does not hesitate for a moment to help and/or satisfy you.

It was our 25th wedding anniversary. It was our first time ever in Clarens. We really can't fault anything. The staff were so helpful and friendly. From the lady at reception who welcomed us (sorry I didn't get her name), Lizwi, Tarzan (you were amazing), the man who was on duty that night (sorry didn't get his name) and then the rest of the staff. Thank you so much for making our wedding anniversary so special. This is definitely one to remember.

Beautiful place with incredible service that makes any guest feel especially welcome.
Il Castello has a beautiful view over Clarens and the surrounding mountains. Our room was a bit small and didn't have a fridge which is why I only give 4 stars for value for money. Furthermore, our stay was unbeatable. There are different options for breakfast available that will suit any person's taste. Furthermore, breakfast is served in different places indoors or outdoors. Everyone goes out of their way to accommodate guests and the service is unsurpassed and always with a smile. A big bonus is the shuttle service available. This is one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed.

An experience with style.
For our recent Clarens visit, we decided on II Castello again, because the first time was such a pleasant experience. The service of all the staff is excellent, everything is neat and stylish, and breakfast was beautifully served. The only thing I would have liked in the room was a chair on which I could sit and read or sit and work on my laptop by the little table. We will visit II Castello again and recommend it to family and friends.

I would definitely recommend Castello. However, I chose a room with a fireplace when booking. The fireplace was outside and not in the room and because it is now winter, we could not use it. Big disappointment. Room also refers to mountain view and it was almost not visible at all.

Castello is a beautiful hotel. But not quite what we expected.
I specifically chose Castello because we wanted to celebrate my daughter's birthday with a spa treat. Disappointingly, Castello could no longer help us with the spa treatments at short notice. I could have booked at another spa with cheaper accommodation for more value for money. We were the only guests.
