Knysna Wayside Inn since 1992
Three Star Boutique Hotel
The newly renovated Knysna Wayside Inn, with its elegantly decorated rooms, being centrally located is an attraction as all the restaurants and shops are close by. The Knysna Waterfront and Thesen Island are hubs of magnificent lagoon view restaurants and shops that are also within walking distance.
Not only does the Lagoon offer great shops and restaurants but many activities, sailing, boating, fishing, skiing, etc.
Don’t forget we have ancient forests too that need exploring. On our doorstep is Pledge Square Nature Reserve, that we will throw a ticket in for free if you stay with us. For more info follow the link below.
We can arrange any activity you need to do while on holiday.
Why The Knysna Wayside Inn
The Wayside Inn’s central location is to this date a major attraction for those who wish to walk into town for a drink or bite to eat. The famous Knysna Waterfront, and nearby Thesen Island, with its ferry trips on the Knysna Lagoon, sailing charters for those more romantically inclined, and whale watching trips going through the famous Knysna Heads (in season: June to November mostly) are all within walking distance.

We were invited to a Seafood Soiree at the Wayside Inn, Knysna. The owner, Brent Hicks, showed us around the recently renovated and very quaintly decorated rooms, each with their own character and colour. We sat outside in the private and spacious courtyard, around the huge fire pitt, mingling with the other guests, and friends and were treated to a seafood feast to remember. We had an amazing evening and would definitely recommend you stop in for a night or two if passing through the garden route.

Visited Knysna recently on business for the third time this year and 3/3 timed have stayed at Wayside Inn (I am starting to be a bit of a regular at this charming Inn). The inn is situated centrally so it is very convenient for our company needs. The bedrooms are neat and tidy and the breakfasts are excellent.At our last stay, we were surprised by a rather sumptuous Sunday evening feast of seafood cooked to perfection on an open fire- this was delicious and a fantastic way to end out stay Thank you to Brent, Benny and Daniel for your excellent service, I, as well as others from our company, will certainly be back.

It`s been the second time we stayed at the Wayside inn since Brent and his team took over, and it has been such a lovely experience ! The highlight is the reception/entrance area that has had a much-needed facelift and now simply looks stunning. The staff was super friendly and made us feel relaxed and at home. Really great value for money and we will definitely visit again !

I've had a few wonderful evenings at Wayside Inn. The staff are so welcoming and helpful. The rooms feel like home and it's a short walk to everything in town. A historical gem in Knysna!
