Description

The Turbine Hotel and Spa was an ambitious project which transformed an old power station into a unique 5 star boutique Knysna hotel. All the old machinery which was used in this power station has been lovingly restored and forms an integral part of the hotels aesthetics. Soak up its fascinating history as you walk past massive turbines on the balcony and marvel at the intriguing steel pillars and pipes that now form part of its funky decor.

Location

A boutique 5 star hotel on Thesen Islands which offers guests luxurious Knysna accommodation options, exceptional cuisine, stunning views, and a range of world-class facilities

Accommodation

A standout when it comes to Knysna accommodation, the hotel offers guests a choice of 17 standard rooms, 6 luxury rooms, a honeymoon suite, and 2 self-contained suites adjacent to the hotel. Each of the rooms provides luxurious amenities such as a flat-screen TV, WiFi, a fully-stocked mini-bar, and a tea and coffee station. As can be seen, when exploring the hotel, the industrial backdrop of bare bricks and huge whitewashed walls is softened by a sense of playfulness in the decor. The machinery and pipes are painted in vivid red, blue, green, and orange, matched by dining chairs in different bright colors. All sorts of unusual instruments and contraptions are dotted around the hotel which will keep engineers, scientists, and curious visitors fascinated for hours.

General

The 90-seater Island Cafe restaurant at the Turbine Hotel overlooks the stunning canal and serves up extraordinary dishes from a diverse a la carte menu. The Gastro Pub, on the other hand, is the perfect spot to enjoy after-work drinks, catch the latest rugby or football game or indulge in a post-dinner night cap. Alternatively, celebrate the end of another glorious day in Knysna on Geoffs Deck whilst sipping on something from the extensive drinks menu, and filling up on an imaginative pub-style variety of snacks.
