5 nights at The Courtyard Hotel.
30 Dec 2025
The money is worth it.They have really nice and stylish rooms that are cleaned on a daily basis. They serve delicious breakfast with a variety of food to choose from. Though I didn’t get a chance to order dinner from the hotel ..I had the chance to check out the menu and it seemed to have a few interesting dishes..It is located just next to the beach with some of the rooms having a wonderful beach view. If you’re into content..this is definitely the destination for you.😌 Erich Oberhauser, General Manager at Courtyard Hotel Gqeberha, responded to this review Dear Valued GuestThank you for kindly completing the online survey.

Dont order room service at this hotel
02 Jun 2025
Do not order room service at this hotel. It takes an hour or more or never comes! And no phones in room. I ordered a simple toasted sandwhich -- after more than an hour I walked over -- and was told it was delivered -- probably to someone else! After waiting 10 min to find out what was going on -- I left and went to be hungry! Erich Oberhauser, General Manager at Courtyard Hotel Gqeberha, responded to this review Dear HowardThank you for kindly completing our online survey and we sincerely appreciate the extra time you took to provide further comments regarding the disappointing service you received from the restaurant staff. The matter has been referred to the Food and Beverage Manager to investigate.We will continue with our commitment to kindness and service excellence and hope to welcome you as our guest to our hotels again soon.Kind regardsErich OberhauserGeneral ManagerCourtyard Hotel Gqeberha

Luxury wheelchair-accessible accommodation by the sea
18 Mar 2025
We booked for a night last minute as our plane connection was delayed. Needed a wheelchair-accessible room, usually difficult to find. This one ticked all the boxes! Beautiful, spacious and very comfortable room. Parked right outside, easy access with ramps. The bathroom was excellent for a wheelchair-bound person, lots of room, suitable heights and useful grab bars. We had a great seafront view, lovely to wake up to! The tiny but well-equipped "kitchen in a cupboard" was a surprise! Great for a bit longer stay. Access to the breakfast room was via a gentle ramp down the side of the hotel, this took us to the verandah. A small ramp for the one step into the dining room would help. Staff were friendly and helpful. Our stay was an unexpected addition to our trip but we would definitely consider staying there again. It's a lovely hotel in a perfect location. Particularly recommended for wheelchair users, it's an easy place to stay. Erich Oberhauser, General Manager at Courtyard Hotel Gqeberha, responded to this review Dear Valued GuestWe sincerely appreciate the time you took to complete a review of the hotel on TripAdvisor and are very pleased to note that you rated the hotel so highly and were particularly happy that the team delivered on our commitment to “home away from home” kindness and service excellence.We look forward to welcoming you as our guest to our hotels again soon.Kind regardsErich OberhauserGeneral Manager – Courtyard Hotel Gqeberha

Nice hotel but wouldn’t rush back
13 Mar 2025
PositivesThe hotel itself is very smart and well-located just minutes from the Boardwalk Mall. Our room was clean and spacious with a great view overlooking the ocean and some nice perks like a good coffee machine, fridge and balcony. Lovely main atrium and pool areaFree wine/smoothies in reception were a nice touch NegativesThe staff were friendly, but unfortunately put us off wanting to leave the hotel, insisting it wasn’t safe. This simply isn’t true - granted, avoid being out and about at night as you would in many cities, but take the usual precautions by day and you’ll be absolutely fine. To arrive and be told not to go out really is disheartening so I’m glad we didn’t listen and went out to explore the area anyway (taking sensible precautions ie no jewellery or electronics on show, keeping to main routes etc). No lift and we weren’t offered any help with our luggageAll in all it was a decent stay, but next time I’d try somewhere else in the area. Erich Oberhauser, General Manager at Courtyard Hotel Gqeberha, responded to this review Dear Jacquis513,Thank you for taking the time to review the hotel. We take note of the constructive comments and will take it up with the relevant department.The criminal activity in the area is a concern and we have our guests' best interest at heart. We can confirm that the hotel, in collaboration with the local business chamber and authorities have been working hard to change this for the better. A lot of progress has been made recently, and the results can already be seen after implementing safety initiatives.We do hope the team can welcome you back in the future.Kind RegardsErich Oberhauser - General ManagerCourtyard Hotel Gqeberha
