Authentic old Cape style, with all the required modern amenities, were perfect for an overnight stay. Exceptionally friendly staff. The restaurant next door and the overall location made it very convenient.
nothing we didn't like, really
Beautiful
I booked my stay just before midnight as my original accommodation was terrible and I could not stay there. The reception would not give me a room because I could not provide a proof of payment even though I showed them the payment made to booking.com and the confirmation nr and mail. They insisted that I pay again. After about 30 min and me refusing to pay again (and s higher rate) they gave in. After all this they informed me they might not even have a room as they are busy renovating. After all that frustration they finally gave me a room.
Beautiful historical property with great facilities in the Family Unit.

I didn't complain but the bedside bulb was fused and the overhead light flickered. Maybe should be seen to - room 3.
Prachtig gerenoveerd historisch gebouw. Zeer vriendelijke en persoonlijke service. Veel mooie en geurende beplanting. Heel goed restaurant. Zwembadje.
Kamer 16 voelde wat klam/vochtig.
Convenient
Parking gets full because of the cattle baron
Nice, old style hotel. Comfortable. The restaurant next door is superb.
I enjoyed the spacious bedroom and bathroom. The air conditioning was working well. I suggest that you put an alternative on the bed, such as a cotton blanket in the very hot summer months. Loved the charm of the old manor house, however I think you need to start to freshen up a little. It is in need of new/clean carpets and a fresh layer of paint in the bedroom and bathroom. Loved the gardens, the views and the charm of the place.
We had a pleasant stay, but the breakfast can really be upgraded. I got the impression that the confectionery was not fresh. The cold meats and salmon also looked dried out and it should have been kept cold in some way during the extreme heat. There were no staff present on Sunday morning during our breakfast and we were left to our own devices. I would advise that someone be available to pour tea/coffee. There were no teapots in sight.
The peace and quiet
I liked everything
Breakfast spread was good, the bed was firm and so comfortable that I wanted to sleep in more. The staff was very accommodating and prompt to our requests.
More light at the parking lot.

My room was not very clean
Sehr freundliches Personal, grosser Parkplatz. Sehr gutes Restaurant, Hotel reservierte dort Platz fuer mich und ich bekam mein Essen viel frueher als andere Gäste die scnon laenger dort waren.
Das Interieur des Hotels ist noch aus dem vor vor letzten Jahrhundert. Das weiss man, wenn man dort Bucht. Jedoch waren im Wasserhahn im Bad grüne Algen ähnliche Ablagerungen. Das Fenster ließ sich dort nicht oeffnen. Es waren nur ein paar Gäste da. Angebot Bar und sonstiges mittelmäßig. Fruehstueck auf Anforderung, schnell und schmackhaft. Wuerde sicher nicht mehr dorthingehen, alles zu verstaubt. Zu dem Zeitpunkt waren in Paarl wenig freie Zimmer - warum dann das Hotel so wenig Gäste hatte..... 😉
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und die Lobby ist immer besetzt. Zum Frühstück wird ein umfangreiches, feines Buffet angeboten.k Das Zimmer ist geräumig und die Fenster im Bad und im Schlafzimmer lassen sich öffnen, damit die Luft zirkuliert. Auch die Klimaanlage funktioniert einwandfrei. Im Restaurant zur Seite des Hotels isst man vorzüglich. Um einen Platz zu erhalten ist die vortägige Reservation notwendig - oder man hat Glück!

Exceptional staff. All willing to help. Tendai was good, tried to make our stay comfortable Good size bathroom though the water in the bath was dirty yellow water.
Found the tea facilities in the wardrobe,kettle had left over water yet it was in the wardrobe. Could not make tea and coffee in the room because did not find this clean and hygienic. Room too small for the big pillows and cushions that fill half the bed.No space to put our bags to allow safe movement in the room. Two single beds in the room, prepared and made as single beds yet I asked for a double bed. Very uncomfortable nights. Set of stairs to take with heavy bags up to the room. No lift at the hotel.
Beautiful building and surroundings. The room was beautiful and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was very spacious with lovely soap and shampoo provided. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Location is perfect to explore Paarl and surrounds. Breakfast was great, too!

It's a beautiful, old building; very spacious and comfortable.
The room was hot and the a/c wasn't able to cool it down enough. The breakfast setup was loud.
Atmosphere friendly staff great food .

The hotel won me over in a day! Usually not one for historical buildings I found the hotel warm and homey. Rocky the cat made me feel right at home. The Cattle Baron next door took care of all one's dinner needs and the fillet was exceptional. The scones at breakfast were fantastic.
I did not like the dark dining area but could eat breakfast outside. I did not particularly enjoy carrying my luggage upstairs as there is no elevator.
Lovely old world charm. Full Breakfast, loved the skilpadjies and lamb sausages. Good omelet. Comfortable bed. Pretty well maintained garden. Great dip in the pool. Friendly staff. Cattle Barron Restaurant on site, a bonus. Loved our 2 night stay.
Nothing!!
This is a racist establishment. I made a booking online. When I arrived with my Black partner, we were told the place is fully booked and no rooms are available. I will make it my personal mission to let everyone know this is a racist establishment. If all rooms were full, why did the booking go through on my app. We had to seek accommodation elsewhere. Absolutely shit service for 2025.
Location, price, service
There are no negative things to say about the place.
Restaurant next door is very convenient.
Breakfast ok need variation. Location great
Furniture in the bay , low table to fall over.
Excellent location. Friendly staff. Spacious, comfortable room. Lovely porch with great mountain views. Breakfast was good.
Nothing.
The breakfast was splendid. The staff, especially the Receptionist, were superb - friendly, exceptionally helpful and a great asset for the hotel.
There was nothing that we found to be unpleasant or lacking in any way.
Beautiful old building with an impressive verandah. The bed was very comfortable.
The room and bathroom were dated. The bedroom was rather dark. The bathroom was huge but uninviting.
Acceptable
Pontac manor hotel and restaurant have the best menu ive enjoyed the meals there so much i didn't wanna go back home from the business trip. They have the nice and comfortable rooms big in space too, you have to try their menu great hospitality i got there.

Hairdryer was not working and sparked when plugged in
Great location and stay!
Nothing
I might be a little biased. Paarl is my home town. That said the Pontiac Manor Hotel is very friendly and professional. Our rooms were very clean and comfortable. Our evening in the restaurant was very good and popular too. Meal excellent. Breakfast in the morning was good. The hotel is in an excellent position to see historic Paarl with its stunning view of Paarl Mountain.
To be honest no complaints.
My boyfriend told me about this place when I first came I didn't know if I could manage but I did and the service was nice and everyone was kind the room service when you needed something you would just ask then they will give you to you so I really appreciate the hospitality in your place thank you
