We had the pleasure to stay for 1 night at the falcon view manor in Knysna. Definately a very nice and well managed place which we always would recommend again. The staff was very friendly and helpfull and you would feel actually more like being in a 5 star hotel than in a Bed & Breakfast place. Again: perfect stay!

We can only recommend this Hotel, which is located on top of the hill overseeing the town and the harbor. The staff is really friendly and very helpful. We stayed 3 nights. The rooms are clean and really large. The first breakfast was the best with a lot of choices, unfortunately it was a bit less on the other two... More

We stayed here last October - we had a large room with a huge luxurious bathroom. The views over Knysna were beautiful . Service was excellent and our welcome was lovely. The whole place was tranquil (including the monkeys running over the roof!!) Nothing was too much trouble and food excellent. THE place to stay if your in Kysna!

When I booked online I did not know what a find falcon view was. The staff is excellent and more than willing to assist with every need. The manor is like the word suggests ,lavish and stately. More than worth the stay. A true gem in Knysna. Christo van Eeden

What a place. I have just returned from a holiday of a lifetime in South Africa. Falcon View Manor in Knysna was voted our favourite place, and we stayed in a few lovely places. The service was perfect, helpful but not invasive. The breakfast was the best I have ever had. We stayed in for dinner one night and that... More

We were delighted with Falcons View - one of the best of many excellent venues that we stayed in on the Garden Route. We had one of the garden rooms with views across the well-kept Falcons View garden, there were even monkeys in the trees! Breakfasts were excellent as was the restaurant in the evening; the room was spacious and... More

This is a really special historic house turned into a wonderful guesthouse. I still get goose bumps thinking about it because it oozes charm! Staff are amazing! They really give you luxury treatment. Breakfast and dinner are delicious and the rooms are uniquely beautiful as is the garden. I am certain that there is no better place to stay in... More

When we arrived at Falcons View we fell in love with it...the staff were so welcoming and made us feel at ease straight away, the room was bright, light and cool and a welcome beer on the Verandah overlooking Knysna was just what we needed after the 5 hour drive from Cape Town. Dinners at the hotel are STUNNING and... More

We stayed 4 nights at Falcons View and had a very relaxing time. It's a lovely little guesthouse with very nice comfortable rooms, helpful staff, great breakfasts, outstanding views over Knysna and a cosy lounge area. A great place from which to explore the Garden Route.

The house is certainly in an excellent location looking over Knysna and the Theson Island development. We didn't really "click" with the style and atmosphere and for that reason alone I would not recommend it. Having said that, the staff are delightful and the breakfast was one of the best we had while touring SA. Dinner however was more hotel... More
