Reviews for Pontac Manor
"no Title"
Me and my wife stayed from 2018.10.11 to 14. The first day we booked in we were not greeted at reception and just given the room keys. A small but neat room . At night we found the shower leaking all ovef the floor. There was no extraction fan and whole room misted up. This lead to the electrical short with open downlights which is not allowed in . The window in bathroom would not open and the blind was broken. When we opened the hot water in the shower we could not open the cold tap as this ancient showerhead shot hot water all over the shower. I had to use a hanger to open cold water. I reported it the next morning. In the afternoon we returned and found clean towels in room and bed maid. The electrical problem persisted. The bathroom was however not cleaned. The following day we returned to the hotel at 15.00 . When we entered the room we found the room not serviced. I went to reception and complaint to staff. The lady said the staff hasleft and she was sorry. I asked for a different room which was given to me but was also not acceptable. We left the hotel at 16.00 to search for different accomadation. In the meantime my wife got red spots over her body and i took her to a pharmacy where it was confirmed she was bitten by something all over her body.This is by far the worst experience we had with accomodation in 20 years. This hotel does not come cheap and promise the world. Not true... pleaaaaaase think twice before booking at pontac estate hotel. We are considering legal action . Regards jasper dippenaar

What a lovely space, old grand hotel vibe with delicous snacks and cake. Nice venue for baby showers and kitchen teas or just to have a cup of coffee.

Lots of effort and homely feel. Some music outside as well will be nice though.

Avoid the ribs. Too pricy.

This really made me feel like you have arrived in the picturesque winelands of the Cape. Cape Dutch styling takes you back to those days. Great for small corporate workshops. Great service and excellent food.
