Comfortable room with excellent view of the Bay. Excellent breakfast.
There is no elevator in the building with some steep stairs to reach the top floor room. Would recommend that they open the door at the street level to allow easier checking in with luggage.

Breakfast great but had to pay extra...because of our booking thru Booking.com
Upon awakening the following morning we found a significant amount of dried blood on the underside of the foot of the duvet cover...an attempt to hide this from the following occupant? Then, upon reporting this to management we got the distinct impression the we were not believed...the evidence for this being a pathetic offer of ONE FREE BREAKFAST...equal to R170!? In spite of this poor response from management we left a tip of 10% for the staff.

Fabulous location with stunning sea views. Young, energetic staff happy to help. Great coffee, tasty breakfast. Airy bright bedroom, large bed. Fab WiFi. 2 min walk into Kalk Bay - beach, tidal pools, restaurants, bars, cafes and shops. A well deserved 5⭐️
We wanted to stay longer!

The eyrie is an excellent self-catering guesthouse on the chartfield property. Has everything you need, is large and spacious, and feels private. Definitely worth the trip. The staff went above and beyond to help us with whatever we needed.
Most of what we disliked are things beyond the guesthouse’s control or we knew going in. Be aware that finding parking near the guesthouse isn’t always easy, especially during summer. The train is a regular source of noise which needs to be considered if you have young kids.
We got complimentary breakfast on Christmas Day, which we appreciated, but think portion sizes are a bit wee for price if we had been paying.

It's about the 5th time Im staying at Charterfield guesthouse. So obviously, the positives outweigh the negatives. The staff are great. The hotel is old-world charming and quirky. I love the cappuccino wake up delivery.
The rooms are comfy and I love the location. One of these days, I will use the pool ;)
The room is not entirely sound proof & you can hear noise from the corridor. R50 for a bottle of water in the room. Really?

The staff were very friendly, the location is perfect and the add ons like a free glass of wine in the evening and hot beverage in the morning, really adds to the total experience.

The proximity to the Main Street in Kalk Bay
On checking in we were told that we would not be given the complimentary breakfast as we had booked through Booking.com. Straight onto the naughty step. I am 80 and my wife 78 and we were given the loft with near vertical stairs, there was no phone for contact and no security safe. There was no complimentary water in the room which was at odds with the previous 4 accommodations we had stayed at.

Very comfy bed, great location, any time check in, stylish hotel
The 8 stairs down to my bathroom & toilet and the R39 price tag on the room water
Come on guys, you can charge outrageous prices for chips and wine in the room, but give a free bottle if water on arrival

The location was very nice, watching the ocean from my room was a pleasure. The whole place looks modern and we furnished.
The wifi scan didnt work. I think just type it out and leave in the rooms or give visitors at check-in.

I was really impressed with the early morning free coffee / hot drink delivered to our room. The coffee was exceptional! The Breakfast options were unique, beautifully presented and delicious! The attention to detail was noted and it was a delight to be able to drink mint tea in a silver tea pot!

The view is absolutely breathtaking, with a full sea-facing outlook that includes the charming Kalk Bay beach and harbour. Tucked just a street back from Main Road, the location strikes the perfect balance between peaceful and accessible—I loved how easy it was to stroll to all the shops, restaurants, and cafes. Breakfast was a real highlight: delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented!
