Protea Hotel Clarens ★★★★

""Semi"self catering Bring everything with you unless you are a solo traveler Needed to pay for everything, including toothbrushes and, upon arrival, needed to request housekeeping to refill the toilet paper as the one was a 1/4 roll. You get what you pay for. Not the global standard for this hotel group."

Mont d'Or Hotel Clarens ★★★★

"We stayed at the hotel in one of the self-catering cottages and loved it. The location is perfect and only a few minutes from the centre of town. You can enjoy the lively centre of town and return to the hotel with it's majestic mountain views and absolute tranquility. I can highly recommend a stay here. The restaurant and spa staff are so welcoming and friendly, we felt perfectly at home and spoiled by the time it was time to leave."
