Orange Inn Knysna is a four-star guesthouse on Old Toll Road in Old Place, offering accommodation for short breaks, family stays and longer visits to Knysna and the Garden Route. The property combines bed and breakfast accommodation with self-catering options, giving guests a choice of room styles and meal arrangements.

The guesthouse has a distinct bird theme across its accommodation. The en-suite rooms are individually styled around birds including the Pelican, Owl, Eagle, Loerie and Falcon. Several of these rooms include king or queen beds, private bathrooms, air conditioning and balconies with views towards the Knysna Lagoon. The Falcon room has two single beds and a shower-only bathroom, and does not have a balcony.

Self-catering accommodation is available in the Crane and Ostrich suites, as well as a larger Bearded Vulture suite formed by combining selected rooms. These units provide equipped kitchen facilities and outdoor areas, making them practical for families or groups who prefer to prepare meals during a stay. The larger suite accommodates up to eight people and includes several bathrooms, a patio and a balcony.

Breakfast is available as part of the guesthouse offering, while breakfast for self-catering accommodation can be requested separately. Each room has air conditioning, and Wi-Fi is available in the rooms and around the property. A swimming pool provides an additional leisure space, with an honesty bar available for refreshments beside the pool.

Orange Inn Knysna suits visitors looking for a comfortable base with a residential feel rather than a conventional hotel setting. The range of room sizes works for couples, solo travellers, families and small groups, while the bird-inspired décor gives the accommodation a consistent identity. Rooms with balconies or patios add outdoor space, and selected rooms provide lagoon outlooks. The location in Old Place places the guesthouse within Knysna while retaining a quieter accommodation setting for exploring the town and surrounding Garden Route attractions.
