Located 300 metres from the hotel, Primi Coastal was a good choice to eat. The room was huge and there was free Wi Fi. Right place for a city break in Port Elizabeth! Free parking on site was provided.

The hotel is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from Humewood Beach. Barnicals, a great dining spot, is within walking distance from the hotel. - the staff we encountered were all very friendly and welcoming.

We loved our stay here! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel at home. The hotel facilities were spotless, the cleanliness was impressive. The breakfast was exceptional; the chef cooked some of the best omelettes we have ever had in a hotel. The hotel is located close to the beachfront and the central boardwalk area, which is around a 15-minute walk away. Also, it was great to have parking available for our rental car.

This hotel exceeded my expectations in so many ways. the attention to detail was exceptional - from the beautiful decor to the thoughtful amenities like blankets and a heater in the outdoor seating area. Secondly, the staff were warm, friendly, and professional, always ready to assist with any needs. Lastly, the rooms were spacious and comfortable, with a separate sitting area and a tea/coffee station. The breakfast spread was diverse and delicious, offering both continental options and a choice of cooked-to-order breakfast. One particular detail that stood out was the sumptuous bath in the upgraded room, perfect for relaxing after a long day.
There was nothing that could be improved at this hotel.

The hotel is located on an urban street, which is convenient for getting around the fairly large area. the airport is also very close by, making it a great option for those travelling by plane. the rooms and bathrooms are spacious and comfortable, with little touches like tea and coffee in the lounge. the staff is friendly and responsive to requests.
There may be some limitations with the facilities, such as limited choices for breakfast.
