Find Guest houses in Cape Town

Second time staying here. The room is spacious, the water is hot, and the air conditioning works. The most important thing is that the breakfast is delicious. Full marks. The only drawback is how long the pilot requires check-out - shouldn't it be 12 o'clock normally?

Breakfast is good, but you need to order it yourself! Only cold food is a buffet, and hot food needs to be ordered by yourself. But it's fine. The location is near the sea point in the white living area of Cape Town. There is a supermarket within a ten-minute walk. You can stroll around the street. Surrounded by Korean, Thai and Chinese food. Room facilities are a bit old and the area is a bit small, especially the toilet and bathroom feel small, bathroom facilities are a bit poor. But very clean. Facing the sea, the distance is a bit far, but the sight is very good.

The hotel is like a beautiful, small but cosy, mansion. Every little detail is well chosen and interesting here. Good choise of breakfast -some choices of eggs with bacon and fruits. It is appx 15 minutes on foot to the V&A. The area is safe and green.

Very friendly and welcoming. Assisted us with late check in. Rooms were cleaned daily. Full house breakfast plate made fresh daily, with many other options for breakfast. We had a fantastic stay.

This bed and breakfast is in the ideal location to visit Simon’s town and its coastline however the actual set up of the bed and breakfast is a huge let down. We arrived to find our room was not ready, once it was the place still looked unkempt, there was a bucket in the bath, the furniture had not been returned to its original locations well and the complimentary items seemed used. On our second night there was load shedding a common occurrence however there seemed to be no precautionary measures taken and we had to use our phone lights to climb the three flights of stairs to our room only to find the rechargeable light (obviously for such occasions) had no batteries and was therefore useless. As South African citizens we fully understand the uncertainty of power but for the cost and normal clientele of this accommodation we really expected there to be more in place. The meal times had been adjusted for the convenience of the staff who were on the premises compared to the welcome sheet details we received on arrival. The whole place seemed to be being run by support staff with no obvious manager on site for the three days we were there (we stayed over a weekend which I would assume to be a prime time) There is about 4 parking sports in front of the building but they were not being used to their full potential and often we had to park a little further away. Overall the location was the main positive. Considering the price we would have hoped to have better amenities and hope that the profile for this accommodation can be amended as there are no pools on the property unlike what the description had lead us to believe. Luckily the charm of Simon’s town and the beaches made up for the serious lack of attention to detail and luxury you would assume a place this price and in this location would have. 3/10 would probably not go there again.

The owner Auriol was a great host and made an effort to let me feel comfortable. The breakfast was very good, and I will gladly recommend the guesthouse to all travelers looking for accommodations.
