65 guests' feedbackThe staff were absolutely amazing and were even able to accommodate our early check-in. Keep up the fantastic service. Will definitely stay again.
Staff was very friendly. Great value for money, including an amazing breakfast. Will definitely stay again.
Pleasant place, surprise breakfast I didn't think it came with breakfast.
We had a very nice stay. Will visit them again. Friendly staff and delicious breakfast.
Hostess very friendly.
The area for the guesthouse is conveniently located, but it is not a safe area. Everything was clean and neat. The breakfast included in the price was also very tasty. The staff were friendly. The decor of the house is dated. The pillows and duvet covers were also old. The king-size bed was too big for the specific room, which limited moving space.
This was my third time at the guesthouse. I was so disappointed.
The room was clean and tidy but there was an unpleasant smell.
Not the same as on the pictures. Dirty and dilapidated.
Arrival: Struggled to get hold of someone. Room: Door didn't lock, got another room and bathroom was dirty. Toilet didn't flush properly. Security: Locked out of house, could not get in, struggled to get hold of someone to let me in so I can get to my room. Breakfast: What a joke, not recommended. Asked for soft eggs, got rubber instead, teaspoon of mushrooms, and a sad strip of bacon, waste of time.
I'm afraid the home needs maintenance and some TLC. Very dilapidated.
Place was dirty and unsafe! Windows broken, front door could not lock. Overall not a worth B&B at all!
Not what we expected at all, would not recommend it at all.
It was a pleasant night's stay with a very tasty and filling breakfast. The only criticism is that the toilet seat was broken. I reported this to management and they promised to attend to it immediately.
One can see that Tancredi was once an outstanding B&B, but is in need of maintenance, e. g. cracks in walls, fallen down gutters, needs painting. Blinds in room can't be pulled up because of broken strings, we were served with chipped crockery. This needs attention. Can Covid and the difficulty the hospitality industry experienced be the reason?
Limited space, very little cupboard space and had to be cleared first. No hairdryer, no milk or fridge to keep items cold. Had to ask for second towel. While eating breakfast, we were asked how we were going to pay for the food.
The room itself was in good condition. The public areas and outside areas requires maintenance. Overgrown grass and garden area around the pool area. The first night (Friday Night), there were other in house guests swimming and partying until early hours of the morning. The property must have rules in place for guests. I do feel that this property is suitable for a 1 night stay and not a weekend away. Would also recommend air freshener dispenses to be placed throughout the property indoors especially. Very basic breakfast as well - did not enjoy breakfast at all - we skipped breakfast the second day. Property needs to be aware to serve wrapped muffins, individual packed yoghurts etc. due to Covid.
Unfortunately, the photos on the website - just like the previous location - are not the same at all. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The photos on the website and what we got were not the same at all. Misleading.
Maybe it was a beautiful place long ago, now badly neglected! So disappointed! Always thought if we booked through website it would be good place in a good area, not the case at all. Never seen owner either, it's a scary place!
Guests checked in at 4am and made a lot of noise which disturbed visitors.
An average guest house that meets basic requirements. I've stayed in better places, but the place is clean and tidy.
The guest house is very centrally located in terms of schools and sports facilities.
Tancredi has a lovely, warm atmosphere and the owner was very welcoming and hospitable. An old house which is well located, especially for where we needed to go. The room was large and comfortable, and had everything one requires when travelling. The bonus on a cold evening was the wall heater which worked effectively. Breakfast was really great. Safety of guests is a priority!
Ann was a very hospitable hostess. The rooms were lovely and cosy.
Friendly service and clean rooms.
Wonderful place for a good night's rest and easy to find near services.
I would recommend the guest house because of the friendly service, cleanliness, delicious breakfast and the best coffee I've ever had.
A lovely place to stay and although we don't stay in Pietermaritzburg that often we will use this B&B as our preferred place.
Thank you very much Ann. I had a very comfortable stay there, would definitely recommend the place. A lot of effort was even made with the breakfast.
My daughter and I enjoyed our stay at Tancredi. Breakfast was delicious.
We will always remember the pleasant weekend we spent at Tancredi and look forward to staying with Ann again as soon as possible in her peaceful guest house.
My wife and I visited Tancredi for the Comrades weekend. Tancredi is a beautiful spot and they go out of their way to make sure that all the guests are well looked after.
The hostess was great and the food was excellent!
Lovely and Ann was wonderful.
Very friendly service and great location. Will definitely use/visit again.
Whan a lovely stay! Ann is the best hostess I have ever had. The room was vwry clean and spacious as was the bathroom. Ann is warm and loving and very organised and accommodating. She even got up at 03:00 AM to fix all our Comrades runners the breakfast of our choice! And she even took the time to check in after the marathon to hear if I made it. We wil definitely be making use of this accommodation each year for Comrades. Thank you Ann, you made us feel so welcome!
Thanks so much for your great service and the effort you put into making breakfast! We will definitely stay there again.
It was wonderful. Thank you.
We fell in love with Tancredi and the hostess' hospitality. Beautiful, clean and huge rooms. Breakfast was out of this world.
What a wonderful place. The hostess such a fantastic person. Guesthouse/all rooms are incredibly beautiful and comfortable. Will definitely stay there again and recommend it.
Everything was great and we had a good stay.
My father is a pensioner, can only understand Afrikaans and is hard of hearing. He was full of praise for how the English hostess came to meet him to make him feel welcome. Ann really looked after my father so well when he checked in alone for the model steam train rally. My father felt so pampered in an incredibly neat and comfortable environment and can't stop talking. I would recommend Trancedi with confidence.
Anne is very friendly and helpful and the breakfast is delicious. If I'm in PMB again I will stay there again for sure. Very comfortable at a good price.
Very nice rooms, very nice B&B and very, very kind owner.
Tancredi is a lovely B&B with an attentive, friendly host and staff. Sumptuous breakfasts, beautiful, tastefully decorated rooms, it is clean and very comfortable. Highly recommend Tancredi.
It's very clean and tidy. It gives a home away from home feeling which was lovely. It's always nice to find places like this that are cosy and well-kept.
Feedback from our client who stayed in Tancredi was positive and he recommended that we can definitely use Tancredi again in the future.
Amazing reception and had a wonderful time. Friendly service and wonderful hospitality.
The lovely hostess, Ann, made us feel very welcome and the old house felt like a second home. Would definitely recommend to travelers to Pietermaritzburg.
Ann was a wonderful host. Will definitely stay over again.
The manager was nice, friendly and provided excellent service.
Friendly service, clean rooms, lovely beds, very tasty breakfast and Ann was a wonderful hostess. We just felt at home and will definitely stay there again.
A lovely B&B.
We have no complaints about our stay. It's a very cute guest house. Mrs. Fincham is a very pleasant person. Excellent breakfast!
Beautiful place, great atmosphere and friendly.
A very nice place to stay!!!
We really enjoyed our stay here!!
Really had an awesome stay. Felt very welcomed.
Tancredi is clean, friendly and well appointed. The breakfast was very good. It suited my needs very well indeed.
Very, very friendly owner and a house that looks like it came out of a lifestyle magazine!
Had a great time. Will be going back soon.
Friendly, neat and helpful.
Beautiful place, had a very cosy stay.
Safe and in a good location.
