Perfekter Aufenthalt in toller Lage in Hermanus. Tolle Gastgeber, immer mit Tipps und Herz dabei! Tolles Personal, die Zimmer sind super eingerichtet. Uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert.

Bereits vor der Buchung hatten wir Kontakt zu den Gastgebern und sie waren sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Wir wurden unglaublich liebevoll begrüßt und haben uns die gesamte Zeit sehr gut gefühlt. Die Restaurant Tipps waren perfekt. Das Frühstück war komplett frisch zubereitet und hat genial geschmeckt. Gerne kommen wir wieder.

We had a brilliant stay here. The owners were lovely and very helpful, giving us great recommendations on where to go in Hermanus and also for our next stop. The location was brilliant, with lots within walking distance. The room was also very comfortable and clean. As a bonus the breakfast was great, with lots of choice and very tasty!

Großartiger Gastgeber, der uns viele Tipps gab und für ein hervorragendes Frühstück sorgte. Tolle Lage, fußläufig zu allen Attraktionen. Schönes Zimmer, alles sauber. Absolute Empfehlung für alle, die eine persönliche Note einem Standardhotel vorziehen.

We only stayed for one night but had a wonderful stay and wish we could have stayed longer. Great hosts! We also loved their 2 dogs, Pepper and Harvey. We were missing our pups back home and were happy to get our doggy fix!

Das Zimmer war absolut sauber und sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und dekoriert. Die Gastgeber waren sehr herzlich und zuvorkommend und haben sehr gerne bei weiteren Planungen und Buchungen von Aktivitäten unterstützt. Das tolle und sehr abwechslungsreiche Frühstück wurde vom Gastgeber persönlich und mit sehr viel Leidenschaft zubereitet. Ich fühlte mich jederzeit absolut und sicher. Das Penguino Guest House kann ich uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

The breakfast was just what we needed. Stephan was a friendly and enjoyable host at Breakfast. Our hostess (sorry I have forgotten her name) was wonderful. My partner had being having a digestion issue prior to our arrival, and our hostess generously provided some over the counter medication which was very helpful. The property location is close to the center with many dining options. The scenery in the area is stunning. Highly recommend staying at The Penguino.

Our stay at The Penguino was absolutely wonderful. Our hosts were warm, engaging, and full of good humour — they made us feel instantly welcome and shared lots of great local tips. The accommodations were spotless and beautifully maintained, and the breakfast was nothing short of exceptional — easily the best we had during our vacation. We couldn’t recommend The Penguino more highly!

Fabian • Couple Trip
Wunderbares Gasthaus in toller Lage in Hermanus. Wir wurden ganz toll vom Gastgeber empfangen und uns wurde alles ausführlich gezeigt. Die Anlage ist hübsch gestaltet, es gab ausreichend Parkmöglichkeiten und alles war sehr modern. Die Zimmer waren sauber, ebenfalls modern und gut ausgestattet. Die Betten waren sehr bequem und die Zimmer sehr geräumig. Das Frühstück war lecker und nett gestaltet. Die Gegend ist sicher. Der Küstenwanderweg ist in 2 Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen. Die Restaurants und der Stadtkern in 15 Minuten. Man kann hier nachts zur Unterkunft zurücklaufen. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen gerne wieder.

Incredible stay, just a short coastal walk to Hermanus waterfront. Owners were amazing hosts, super helpful and fun! Nikki gave some excellent recommendations while Stefan served up amazing breakfasts. A brilliant tag team! Room was also lovely. Thank you for a memorable short visit!

This is in the top 3 of the best value for money accommodation we've ever stayed in! Why? The location, the welcome, the room, the SUPERB breakfast, the local knowledge and advice, the electric bikes we hired. And in particular the way hosts Stefan and Nikki interacted with us and the other guests, somehow bringing us all together which enhanced the stay even more.We made some great contacts with people who had stayed at Penguino previously .... which speaks volumes in itself. Hermanus is a lovely, chilled-out place and when we go back we will be staying here again.

One night stop over in between Plettenberg & Cape Town. Enabled us to have a half day tour around the area which was well worth while. Everything was as described & more than adequate. Breakfast was superb!
