Facilities at Bishops Lodge — pool, gym, restaurant

Bishops Lodge is a four-star property, not a place to just sleep between other plans. There is a sheltered pool for lazy afternoons, a gym if you would rather earn dinner, and a games room for whenever the mood strikes.

The Whaler's Inn restaurant and fully licenced bar cover breakfast through nightcaps, with a braai deck ready for the evenings that call for it, and a tea garden for the quieter ones. Conference rooms are on hand for anyone mixing business with the stay. It all adds up to real entertainment for the whole family, and among places to stay in Port Elizabeth, this is one where you will not run out of things to do without leaving the property.

Everything above is on site, a minute from Kings Beach in Humewood, Gqeberha.

Available for all Guests

The pool

Sheltered, sunny, and a minute from the sea. Loungers, shade and space to sit out the hottest part of the afternoon.

Whaler's Inn restaurant and bar
