林霍夫精品民宿(Linhof Boutique Guest House)

The place is the most dirty we ever have been to. Reception was very quick, only a few information and then the staff disappeared and was never seen after. It was a spooky a**osphere and an awful and disgusting smell in the house - we felt lost. After a very short information we checked the room ourselves and found used bedlinnen with hair of the guests before us on it. The highlight was the bathroom - massive fungus in the shower, worn out and tworn towels and an almost empty plastic bottle of liquid soap as an "amenity". Not even the fantastic view from the balcony onto the atlantic ocean couls hold us from running away from this inhospitable place. When you consider the prize you feel ripped off.

This is our second time here and we always enjoy it, well located with a friendly owner and staff, amazing views and excellent breakfasts (thanks Shirley!!) Fall out of bed and your on the beach. We'll be back!!

Stayed in Albatross room, large with balcony looking out to sea. Only downside was small bathroom, nowhere to put toiletries but on the floor. So when had a shower the water covered the bathroom floor and the toilet bags. Not even a hook on the back of the door in the bathroom to hang anything. Breakfast was excellent and staff friendly. Unfortunately no generator , most of the properties we stayed in have them now because of the amount of time with no electric. Something the owner may consider to make guests stay more comfortable.

Really safe and secure guest house right on the beach. You can walk to all the restaurants in paternoster from here. The beach is a stones throw away and accessible by a few steps from the rear of the property, our room looked directly over the beach. The staff are fab, and on the second morning the host served up fresh lobster and scrambled eggs which was delightful. I’ll book again next time I visit

My wife and I recently visited Paternoster and came upon Linhof, a beachfront guesthouse situated close to the Paternoster Waterfront. Although my wife and I stayed elsewhere, we popped in to say hello to to our daughter and then we met Marianne, the owner who invited us to come back the next morning and join our daughter for breakfast. That breakfast was quite an exceptional experience! We had a table at a window overlooking the beach a stone’s throw away with a great view of the shoreline. The previous evening we had sat next to that breakfast window outside our daughter's room on a verandah with loungers, enjoying the beauty of the spot. With the sea next to us we had a wonderful breakfast which started with fruits , muesli, yoghurt, coffee and all the normal items of a good breakfast. But then Marianne did something special for us. She offered us a special dish of lobster and eggs. A Paternoster moment! Delightfully delicious and worth a photograph. Absolutely outstanding.

Thanks to Mariana and the staff for a very nice stay! Beautiful setting, very good service, not to mention the excellent breakfasts! The view from our balcony was something else and the proximity to the Paternoster waterfront is very convenient.

Excellent boutique hotel! Lovely room overlooking the sea, well furnished with very comfortable bed. Breakfast is substantial with a great deal of choice and even included lobster. Marianne and her staff are engaging and very helpful with recommendations. Would highly recommend and stay again.

Everything was top class but extra mention for the delicious and interesting breakfasts. The room was beautiful, confortable and spacious. Mariana, the hostess, is attentive to every little details and makes you feel at home. We could not have asked for more.

Excellent location on the beach, well equipped room with patio and sea views with direct entrance to the beach. Memorable breakfast even during "load shedding" (blackouts). Wish we could have stayed longer and would not hesitate to return.
