Well, we expected great things and our experience was even better. From the moment you step into the resort you are treated like royalty. The staff are absolutely first class, the accommodation and pool is fantastic and the breakfast is totally fabulous. Wonderful touches like complimentary local wines make this a “must stay”. 11/10. Wonderful 5 days of luxury.

Our stay at the Last Word Constantia was truly exceptional, and one of the standout aspects was the incredible staff. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel welcome and well taken care of. Everyone we encountered was friendly, professional, and genuinely eager to ensure our stay was perfect. The staff went above and beyond – offering local recommendations, assisting with any questions promptly, and always greeting us with a smile. It's clear they take great pride in what they do, and it really made a difference in our overall experience. A special ‘Thank you’ to Kim and her great team for making our birthdays so special. Thank you to Samantha for granting our every breakfast needThis is truly what typical South African hospitality is all about…guys you were great Thank you to Widad for sorting out our accommodation I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place, especially for those who appreciate warm hospitality and excellent customer service. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

Can only support every positive review on here as it really is that good, the staff are brilliant, the rooms huge, the lounge just lovely and probably the best breakfast of any hotel we have ever stayed in anywhere. Struggling to say more, we only stayed one night as we were using it for a hire car drop off for a road trip from Cape Town airport which it was perfect for. Highly recommend and would happily return to stay longer. We enjoyed a visit to the word famous Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens which are very nearby and an evening meal at a local vineyard which the hotel recommended and booked for us all very easy by uber.

We stayed here for 5 nights chilling at the end of a month away. It was fantastic! Our suite was amazing, the bathroom huge & fab, literally everything you could want, including the hotels own labelled wine in the suite which was really nice. Each suite opens onto the gorgeous & peaceful pool area, so the opportunity to chill is right there. The staff are fantastic & can’t do enough for you, the breakfast is the best I think we have ever had, & Tiffany the cat will keep you company. The parking is secure, access is easy, & there are restaurants within easy reach, with one directly next door & a side gate from the hotel straight in to it. Staying here was exactly what we wanted & needed at the end of our trip, so thanks everyone, we loved our stay.

Highly recommended boutique hotel in Constantia The accommodation is luxurious and beautiful. We certainly felt pampered and welcome. The special touches are numerous and the staff members are clearly trained to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Breakfast was extensive, served with a view of the lush garden which is filled with tropical plants and trees. Plants and greenery are found throughout the hotel which makes for a wonderful feel. The only minor issue was the non functioning TV, which they we aware of, but the technical support staff member was not available to attend to it during our stay.

Kim & her team, incluing Charmaine who bakes the amazing afternoon cakes and treats for your room, set the bar for the best Boutique stay in any guest house we have had. Spacious comfortable rooms, lovely Pool and gardens to relax after exploring local gardens and hiking Constantia Nek. To be offered a cup of tea and a slice of cake whilst relaxing was heaven. We would go out of our way to ensure we stayed here again. Thank you to all of you

The hotel is located in the upmarket suburb of Constantia some way from the centre of Cape Town. We were advised against walking round the area and without a car, it can feel rather isolated. The hotel is a beautiful – the décor in the public areas and our room was bright and welcoming. I didn’t want to move from the comfortable sofas in the lounge area! The pool area and gardens are simply stunning. We had a pool suite which was large and well-appointed with everything you would expect from a boutique hotel. Unfortunately the air-conditioning unit was above the bed and despite adjusting the angle of the vents and speed, we felt as if we were sleeping in draught and slept with the windows open instead. Our private terrace was rather drab and the pool water murky compared to the main area by the swimming pool and gardens so we preferred to spend our time there. If I stayed again, I wouldn’t choose a pool suite. Breakfasts are huge with a wide choice of cold and hot food. The hotel doesn’t have its own restaurant but is adjacent to Peddlars on the Bend Restaurant, a popular local restaurant and bar. We ate there each night and the service and food was good. They will deliver their food to the hotel but we liked the buzz of the restaurant. Just a word of caution, we had mild tummy trouble as did a couple of other guests. I mentioned this to friends who come from Cape Town and they said, whenever they head back they use bottled water to clean their teeth, wash fruit, and avoid salads. We’ll know next time! The staff were really friendly and the service provided by the hotel is superb – tea and drinks by the pool or in our room were no problem. A special thank you to Kim who welcomed us on our early arrival and showed us to showers so we could freshen up after a long flight before arranging transport to the Kirstenbosch Garden. After we had checked out I discovered I had lost some jewellery. Luckily a member of staff had found it, handed it in and Kim arranged for it to be couriered back to me in the UK. I was so impressed by this and the hotel in general, that we have booked to stay at their sister hotel in Long Beach at the end of the year!
