The Lofts Boutique Hotel, hotel in Knysna

Welcome to The Lofts Boutique Hotel, a family-owned hotel that promises to offer you the ultimate escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Situated on the edge of the picturesque Knysna...

We wanted a room with a view, and staying at the Lofts in Tower 1, we certainly got it. Private terrace, facing the lagoon where we could enjoy the sunset. The room was lovely and comfortable, decorated as beachy-chic. Lovely strong shower, just what you need after a dip in the lagoon. The breakfast (at Nest) was tasty, the bar had a cool vibe and there were plenty of restaurant options within walking distance. Lots of cute spaces within the hotel to chill out in if you can tear yourself away from the terrace and the hotel has kayaks too. Special mention of the concierge Dylan, who was super passionate about all the garden route had to offer and was so helpful with hints and tips on what to do within and around Knysna.

    Definitely stop at Pearl view for a coffee!

    Definitely stop at Pearl view for a coffee! Going back up from the view points back towards the parking lot may strain those who have difficulty in walking.... If that is the case looking at the view from this restaurant is just as good!

    View from the Heads well presented area to take amazing photos. Pop down to beach area to enjoy lovely cafe restaurant but beware parking limited and it gets very busy for breakfast and lunch. Closes late afternoon.

    You need a car to get up to the lookout area but the views are stunning. Failing that, take a boat trip from Knysna waterfront to the Heads and see it from sea level. Stunning either way, especially on a sunny day.

    This is a gem of a hotel with lovely views of the Knysna Heads and lagoon. It's beautifully decorated with lovely gardens and a pool. Our rooms were spacious and comfortable. As it was winter, the log fires in the lounge and restaurant were very welcoming. Dinner and breakfast choices were very tasty. I cannot thank the staff enough for the way they looked after us - they are outstanding.

    The apartment is right up on the knysna heads, which is just a short drive from town up to the top on the heads. Self Check-in was super easy. The host sent a video showing exactly what to do. Communication with the hosts is excellent and via whatsapp. There's an undercover parking bay allocated for the one bed apartment. The fridge is stocked with a few beverage items that you may purchase off the menu. The apartment is furnished with electric blankets, which helped a lot!

    This was a splendidly spacious apartment on two floors with glorious views of the lagoon and Knysna Heads. The gas hob and oven worked well and were proof against load-shedding. The bed and the lounge seating were very comfortable. The swimming pool was close by and very refreshing. I would recommend this property for an extended stay. The bathroom and the shower room both worked well. The staff were great!
