Beautiful garden, cosy rooms with easy access to restaurants and shopping.

Great location on the main road of Stanford and an easy walk to all the shops and restaurants.

Skoon, gemaklik en vriendelik ontvang.

Ons was die enigste gaste, maar ek dink dit sal selfs lekkerder wees as daar nog asems is. Die hotel is stylvol en baie netjies.

Clean, comfortable and friendly welcome.

We were the only guests, but I think it would be even nicer if there were still asems. The hotel is stylish and very neat.

Baie duur. Geen waarde vir geld.

Geen TV, geen ontbyt, handdoeke voel soos skuurpapier, geen lugverkoeling, net 'n waaier. Prys van R1600 of selfs die goedkoper kamers teen R1450 is belaglik vir dit wat jy kry. Kon in Hermanus vir billiker gewoon het met beter geriewe. Was die enigste gaste en dis omdat hulle te duur is. Baie teleurgesteld. Mors van geld.

Very expensive. No value for money.

No TV, no breakfast, towels feel like sandpaper, no air conditioning, just a fan. Price of R1600 or even the cheaper rooms at R1450 is ridiculous for what you get. Could have lived in Hermanus for cheaper with better facilities. Were the only guests and that's because they are too expensive. Very disappointed. Waste of money.

Stanford Hotel 's response

A detailed description of our rooms states quite clearly that there are no TV's in the rooms, only in the guest lounge. Also quite clearly we have no air-conditioned rooms in our small 100 year old village hotel. You booked a two bed family unit sleeping three instead of a double room for two. Breakfast is an optional extra, also clearly stated. There were three other units booked that evening. You were not the only guests in the hotel.

Nie waarde vir geld nie.

Die huis is baie gesellig en bekoorlik aan die binnekant. Die webwerf het egter 'n foto van 'n ander huisie wat sjarmant en outentiek lyk en 'n mooi sypaadjie het. Die foto's van hierdie kothuis is slegs van binne af. Ons het dit so verstaan met die aankoms, want die buitekant van die huis is 'n bietjie armoedig en het geen stoep nie. Ons het dus 'n bietjie verneuk gevoel. Daar blyk ook geen braai te wees nie, wat op die webwerf genoem is. Gelukkig was die persoon wat ons ontvang het, vriendelik genoeg om sy Weber vir ons te leen. Oor die algemeen 'n lekker plek, maar vir hierdie geld het ons 'n bietjie meer verwag.

Not value for money.

The house is very cozy and charming on the inside. However, the website has a photo of another cottage that looks charming and authentic and has a nice sidewalk. The photos of this cottage are of the interior only. We understood it that way on arrival, because the outside of the house is a bit shabby and has no porch. So we felt a little cheated. There also appears to be no barbecue, which was mentioned on the website. Fortunately, the person who received us was kind enough to lend us his Weber. Overall a nice place, but for this money we expected a bit more.

Mini holiday.

We didn't like the wall to wall carpet. Didn't feel completely safe. The veranda is nice. Could do with a bit of extra styling. But overall not a bad stay.

Die Stanford Hotel het al ons verwagtinge oortref!

Ons het 'n heerlike verblyf in Stanford Hotel gehad. Die kamers is uitsonderlik stylvol en histories ingerig. As 'n bonus is daar 'n ongelooflike interessante privaat museum deel van die hotel. Die fokus is op persoonlike diens en gasvryheid. Ons was spyt dat ons nie langer kon bly nie. Sal definitief weer daar wil oornag!

Dit was wonderlik om saam met vreemde mense te kuier en te voel soos vriende!

Ek kan net positiewe gedagtes meedeel. My verblyf was rustig en mooi. Ek het baie veilig gevoel en het dit waardeer dat ek ook my motor op die erf kon parkeer agter 'n geslote hek. Die mense in Stanford is baie vriendelik en alhoewel ek 'n vreemdeling was het ek nie gevoel soos een nie. Ek sal definitief weer in Stanford bly en hierdie keer langer!

It was great to hang out with strange people and feel like friends!

I can only impart positive thoughts. My stay was peaceful and beautiful. I felt very safe and appreciated that I could also park my car in the yard behind a locked gate. The people in Stanford are very friendly and even though I was a stranger I didn't feel like one. I will definitely stay in Stanford again and this time longer!

Dit het gevoel asof ek by my ouma se huis kuier.

Jenny was baie behulpsaam en gasvry. Niks was te veel moeite nie. David het ons veel omtrent die omgewing en voëllewe vertel tydens ons vroeë oggend riviervaart waarvoor Jenny vir ons 'n heerlike ontbyt ingepak het. Die kamers is skoon en gerieflik en mooi met ou meubels gemeubileer.

Jenny was very helpful and hospitable. Nothing was too much trouble. David told us a lot about the area and bird life during our early morning river cruise for which Jenny packed us a delicious breakfast. The rooms are clean and comfortable and nicely furnished with old furniture.

Die kamer is smaakvol en pragtig en die badkamer skoon en ruim.

Niks skiet tekort nie en die koffie in die kamer lekker. Die enigste kritiek is dat dit bietjie "onpersoonlik" gevoel het, ons kon nie personeel kry om die sleutel by te los nie.

Nie aan te beveel nie.

Die WiFi bestaan nie, hulle adverteer dit bloot as 'n reklame-foefie. Die ketel werk nie. Die warm water het nie gewerk totdat ons daaroor gekla het nie. Daar is net 'n outydse boks-TV sonder kanale met net 'n DVD-speler met 'n paar DVD's. Die beddegoed was goed maar die prys vir 2 mense was te veel buite seisoen vir dit wat ons gekry het.

Stanford Hotel 's response

The Wi-Fi requires a password which we give to our guests when they ask. The kettle clicked-off just prior to boiling. We returned it to the supplier and it was replaced. A mains water pipe burst in the village as we were checking this guest in. When he came into reception to advise me that there was no hot water coming out of the tap, I checked and found that the water had stopped completely. In his presence, I telephoned the municipality on speaker phone so he heard every word. They advised me that the pipe had just burst and that they were about to send out an sms advising the community. They said it would take an hour to fix. It is a little unfair to hold our establishment responsible for a broken mains pipe in the village. There is no TV advertised in this room. It is a family room and the TV and DVD player was installed for the children. The unit booked was a family unit meant for 4 people not 2. A booking for another room for 2 people would have been a cheaper option.
