Great place to be when in PE as it is closer to the beach and airport
Nothing
The staff is very nice and helpful. Thank you so much
Rooms are small Tv channels Bedding Toilets and shower
Room cleaned smell fresh
I give 10/10 to the ladies at reception, very friendly❤️
The room was not clean especially the floor, even the 2nd floor passage was dirty, there was also a funny smell in our room, wifi did not work at all😏😏....
Sea view
Never enough towels when we go there
the room was clean; staff was friendly from receptionist to a cleaner. we had a good time.
To have DSTV channels and kettle in rooms.
place is clean
The property is close to fast food places
I booked a room for three people but the room was so small even for a one person. We couldn’t even move around the room. If you want to pass to go the bathroom you the other one has to move so that the other one can pass. I had the worst experience, I regret booking Sun 1. The receptionist was very rude, we came back after our girls night and we couldn’t open the entrance door, instead of her assisting us she shouted that we gonna break the door while we were not even aggressive towards the door, I didn’t even know that at Sun1 you are not allowed to laugh, we were not even laughing that loud but the receptionist followed us to our room making us uncomfortable saying if we don’t shut up we gonna go outside as if we are some teenagers, she could have politely asked us to keep quiet. I hate people who are rude for no reason because I paid to be there. The security guard kept on knocking on our room at 3am, wanting to talk to me. we were only 3 females and that made us question our safety at Sun1. I am so angry as I am writing this review because I keep on reflecting on that night. I really regret my stay at Sun1 especially the room that we were given for 3people. How are 3 adults expected to stay in that tiny room?
Clean and friendly staff
Bid small rooms. But is was still very nice.
Nice and clean. Had business meetings. Perfect just to go and relax after a busy day.

Very clean
I lost my charger haven't gotten it back yet
Check in was great.
We were offered coffee on arrival but no milk available. Bedding was clean but the hardest mattress in the world, most uncomfortable sleep. Day shift receptionists most unprofessional when we checked out. We weren't even acknowledged they continued having their conversation like we weren't even standing in reception.

The room was dirty Smells like cigaretts, dirty . The bed very uncomfortable .the wifi did not work
I liked everything
I didn't like the t.v, the channels there you need to upgrade to dstv or streaming
Liked the location close to the beach, casino and restaurants. We had a nice stroll on the beach side while we could not go to the hospital. We explored some restaurants and got real value for money.
They were renovating the fire stairs and we could not sleep in. We also had issues with a group of children knocking at all hours on our door. This was sorted out the next day. We were in PE for mother in law that was in hospital and has since passed away.
W got the seaview room we asked for.
The place was filthy, every dustbin was overflowing, a huge mess on the stairs and in front of our room because of Sellborne school They were noisy until late and left the hotel like a pig style. we had to ask numerous times for an extra pillow, extra towel that never came. We've been going there a lot this year, but this stay was the worst ever.
Their rooms are too small and they only had 1 blanket
Great location walking distance to mall and restaurants
Location
No views
Check out time is too early 😴 😒 atleast 12 is ok.
Conveniently located close to restaurants, great value for money.
There were cockroaches in the room. On the bed and in the shower.
No breakfast was available The service and cleanliness at SUN1 Port Elizabeth were good during my stay. However, the hotel lacks lifts entirely, and we were placed on the 3rd floor. Fortunately, I was using my crutches and not my wheelchair during this trip, or getting to the room would have been impossible. Additionally, the toilet seat was cracked and pinched my bum every time I sat on it. While the staff is pleasant and the rooms are clean, the venue is absolutely not suitable for wheelchair users or anyone with severe mobility issues due to the lack of elevators
Maintenance If there were lifts
The location
The Wi-Fi connection is very bad, actually there's no Wi-Fi at all.
Very clean and all you need for an overnight stay.
Everything was ok, but I never recieved a room that look over the sea. I always get rooms like 126 that you can see nothing.
Please give me a room that look over the sea. The room they gave me was 126 , can see nothing.
The room wa cleaned on daily basis. Kindly consider attaending to smooking on the facilty for non smokers .Atleast put the

The top bed for my 11 year old son was wet. I suspect it was urine. The matress was replaced and the blanket
It’s location is very convenient as it’s close to amenities.
Smoking should not be allowed inside. Remove that extra bed at the top, it suffocates the ones sleeping underneath and it hurts us coz we forget that it’s there. It’s dangerous to our heads.
The place was very clean and the staff was very friendly.
The pillows were not comfortable they are too big. The were guys smoking at the passage the smoke was coming inside our room😭.
Close to all activities
Nothing
The bed felt like I was sleeping on springs, The pillows were hard,woke up with a saw neck

Staff very friendly
Sleepless night due to noise.. guests not mindful
We liked everything of the hotel. We as a family could spend lots of time together. It was very quiet and we did not have any disturbing experience.
Everything was absolutely fine with us. We have no complains regarding our stay at the hotel. It was central and we could visit lots of places.
Bugs in the room for sure. Lots of itchy bites. Air freshner too overpowering
Mixed service from reception staff. First stay Reception staff were so warm and welcoming Second visit staff were dismissive and practically ignored us. Coffee vending machine was not filled or kept ready.

I couldn't stay longer due to work
Close to Beach. Friendly staff. Cleanliness of room.
Very noisy. Suburb very dangerous. Drugdealers.
The location was great, property spotless clean, great value for money
Receptionist was not that great
The staff were friendly and polite throughout our stay. The check-in process was quick, and the location was convenient.
Unfortunately, our experience was overshadowed by a security issue. While housekeeping was cleaning nearby rooms, the room doors were left open and unattended. During this time, someone entered our room and stole our clothes and shoes. We reported the incident to hotel management immediately. We expected better security measures and supervision during housekeeping to help prevent incidents like this.
The rooms are very clean
