Lovely old manor house situated on the hill overlooking the picureque estuary. Very helpful, obliging and friendly staff. The hotel has lots of character with tastefully furnished public rooms and very comfortable and well equipped bedrooms and bathrooms. There is a small restaurant for residents where dinner is served, there is really no need to go out. Breakfast is served... More

The hotel, once a private house, has a wonderful position overlooking Knysna. Not too far from the town centre it offers peace and tranquility. Our welcome glass of wine was enjoyed on the balcony at sunset. Rooms are spotless and well furnished, although the design of the house means ceilings are sloped. The bathroom was well fitted and modern with... More

We were here for 2 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. We can only echo the other positive reviews of the accommodation, the gorgeous views of the Knysna lagoon from the veranda, the professional and friendly service and the lovely gardens. Breakfast was top class (including breads from the famous Ile de Pain bakery), and dinner on the... More

My Husband and I had 2 nights here and had a wonderful time. Beautiful house, stunning grounds and views, excellent food and attentive staff. We would highly recommend Falcons View Manor and it was our favorite stop from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth.

There was nothing wrong with this hotel, indeed on the whole it was great. A nice setting - especially the gardens and far enough out of town to be quiet. Great views from the terrace. Our room was a bit dated lots of brown), though comfortable - the bathroom was enormous! The problem was that we felt we were being... More

Stayed here for 3 nights and had a super time, the staff are very helpful. The food here is excellent both at breakfast and dinner. The view from the verandah over Knysna is perfect and just the right place to sit with a drink and enjoy the sunset.

Lovely hosts, wonderful views, tastefully decorated, gorgeous rooms and walk in wet room. Lovely breakfast in the garden. Cheeky monkeys playfully entertain. Sundowners on the Victorian style veranda were a treat at night. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous. We felt very spoilt.
