What to look for in a hotels in George

In George, the Fancourt Hotel and Golf Estate is the standout luxury property in the region and internationally recognised — beyond it, the hotel market is largely mid-range business and transit accommodation. For Garden Route tourism, many visitors use George as a base and day-trip to the coast rather than staying in George itself. Corporate rates at George business hotels tend to be well below Cape Town or Joburg equivalents for comparable quality.
