King Edward Hotel, Port Elizabeth

The hotel has a unique charm with its historical architecture, but it's showing signs of neglect in both its amenities and room conditions. While the colonial-style space has potential, the atmosphere feels rundown, and the cleanliness is lacking. The service was satisfactory, but the location has its downsides due to the area surrounding the hotel being a bit rough. On the whole, it's a mixed bag for travelers looking for comfort.

My honeymoon in South Africa had a memorable experience marred by one disappointing night at this hotel. While it had a facade of charm due to its colonial appearance, the overall upkeep left much to be desired. The area felt unsafe and the room conditions were below our expectations. However, if you're looking for budget accommodation for a short stay, it might serve its purpose.

This hotel really has its own unique charm, but the surrounding area is quite sketchy, making it a bit uncomfortable for evening outings. The rooms are a mixed bag - some have been recently renovated and are quite nice, while others are in desperate need of attention. The service was friendly and accommodating, which made our stay a tad more enjoyable.

We recently returned from our honeymoon in South Africa, which was fantastic except for the unfortunate night we spent at this hotel. The rooms were old and in dire need of renovation, and while there were some charming aspects, the overall state of the hotel left much to be desired. On the bright side, the reception area seemed freshly updated, but this couldn’t mask the issues we encountered during our stay.

I found the hotel to have a unique charm with its historical architecture, but it's clear that it needs significant renovations. The rooms were spacious but dated and lacked cleanliness. While the value for money is decent, the service was disappointing, especially regarding the shuttle service. The location feels unsafe at night, making it necessary to be cautious when going out.
