The hotel is in an excellent location on the water front / boat harbour. Within the same precinct are lots of shops and restaurants specifically catering for the tourist trade.

Stayed here last week for a quick 1-nighter en-route to Port Elizabeth. This was one of 5 Protea hotels that we stayed in between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth - and location and value-wise, the best.
