9 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2026
The owner was very friendly and helpful and always available if we needed anything. It's a quirky building. Really welcoming. Lovely seating area downstairs. Kitchen in basement. Spacious rooms, hot shower, comfy beds. It felt very safe and secure.
The noise from other rooms carried a bit but not a big problem.

Friendly staff, and very good location. The room was big and comfortable, and I enjoyed my stay there for the suration of my vacation. The location was very good as well, withh a wide array of bars and restaurants just around the corner, and a mere 10 min walk from Waterfront.
No notes, actually. I enjoyed my stay in the hotel very much, and would definetely stay again if I go back to Cape Town.

The location was excellent, within walking distance of the V&A Waterfront and Sea Point as well as the stadium. Loads of restaurants and coffee shops just around the corner too. Comfortable and quaint room with free tea and coffee on offer. Room had a fridge and a safe. Despite the proximity to restaurants, the room was extremely quiet making for a good night's sleep.
Just wish there'd been separate hand soap in the bathroom so I didn't have to use shower gel.

Location is great
Very noisy at the property next door. Fridge smelt of garlic every time you opened it. Fan was not working. Was replaced with a fan that barely worked. No instructions as how to operate the safe.
