    Lovely stay

    We had a 3-night stay at 8A Grahamstown By The Oyster Collection and it was fantastic. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The breakfast and coffee were delicious, and we loved the honesty bar that was well stocked with great wine. The cozy fire in the evening added to the laid-back and stylish atmosphere. The bed in our room was the most comfortable one we've ever slept in away from home. Highly recommended.

    The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious with fresh fruits and yoghurt. The staff was helpful and efficient, making our business trip a pleasant experience. The location was convenient for our work, and we enjoyed the lovely view from the quiet cul-de-sac where the hotel is situated.

    the decor was exceptional and the staff was hospitable. I particularly enjoyed the comfortable beds and the breathtaking view of the city from the window. the breakfast was rich in variety with many options to choose from and the location of the hotel is perfect for my city trip.

    Although the service was phenomenal the management needs to work harder at their supervision of the hotel, since it was quite uncomfortable at times. I found the dinner to be quite pricey for the size and quality of the meal I received.

    We had a wonderful family stay in a quiet, cul-de-sac location with lovely grounds and amazing view of the city. the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was a highlight of the day with a wonderful selection and delicious taste. the bathroom was very modern with a great shower and our room had comfortable beds. just outside our room was a living area where we could relax, read, or watch TV if we needed some quiet time. the location was close to everything we needed and we enjoyed our time there immensely.

    The pricing for dinner at the guesthouse was expensive and lacked transparency, which made it difficult to plan for in advance.

    We loved the spacious and beautifully designed room with a breathtaking view. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect, just a short distance from everything. We also appreciated the quiet living room area just outside our room.

    Nothing that we didn't like.
