Manor 38 — Hotel in Eastern Cape

On arrival you come up to a large gate so you have space to park your car safely |The person checking us in was nice and welcoming, you need to tick what you want for breakfast on arrival which l don’t like to do as l do not know how hungry l will be. The room was clean and presentable but it didn’t have an air conditioner but had an over head fan that unfortunately was squeaky so couldn’t use it so we didn’t have the best sleep. (The cheaper room inside does have air conditioner) The tv was hard to work, and couldn’t find any local channels, but it did have Netflix and some other apps when you got it working.|The pool is a good size but it needed a net to get all the leaves out and it did have something at the bottom which didn’t look inviting, when we arrived the sun was setting and so the pool was a bit cold for me to swim. ( next morning it still needed cleaning but nothing was done) |Breakfast was very nice, coffee (cafeteria)which was nice, orange juice l am not sure it was fresh as it tasted artificial. I had fresh fruits and yoghurt and muesli followed by a cooked breakfast it was all very nice, and cooked |Perfectly |I think with some friends this place would be nice, or even some more guests, but if you like the quiet then it’s...

We stayed at Manor 38 for 2 nights over the Christmas break and had an enjoyable stay. The location is in a quiet and safe neighbourhood, but within a short Uber ride of various restaurants and bars. Christopher, the manager, was exceptionally helpful and pleasant and really made our stay.

The pool area was pleasant and there were sunloungers and towels provided. Due to a drought the pool could not be filled in full, but it was still possible to have a swim.

Breakfast was fresh and cooked to order. The table was beautifully laid out by Christopher. The honesty bar was well stocked and very well priced!

As we booked last minute, only the smallest double room was available. The room was smaller than was ideal and there were a few issues (broken luggage rack, worn curtains, no air con so the room became stifling hot at night). The shower room was very small and hot. The bedroom is located just off the communal sitting room, and sound seemed to travel easily. We were awoken at 6am one morning by the TV in the lounge being switched on, which was slightly annoying. We had a look at the occupied rooms facing the pool which were far more spacious and pleasant. We would return to Manor 38, but would stay in a...

The night of the 16th of October 2018 was my first visit to Manor 38; and I was pleasantly surprised by the beauty of this property in a tranquil part of Summerstrand. The rooms are spacious and truly makes one comfortable to a point of forgetting the business travel chronicles. In my tight schedule the next day, I rushed out to grab a quick breakfast, needless to say - spot on to the order I put in the previous night. The food not only tasty, but beautifully presented. I rushed out to an early meeting and forgot some documentation in my room upon checking out. I had already had my meetings, sitting in the lounge waiting for my flight, no longer in possession of the hired car; I receive a call from Chris highlighting this small mishap. In my moment of panic, wondering how and when I would be able to get these documents, Chris calmly noted my flight departure time and arranged for the documents to be delivered at the airport for. Now, that SERVICE and going beyond the call of duty to assist clients. Manor38 sure has my vote! I now know exactly where to find accommodation every time I am in Port Elizabeth! THANK...
