Very nice boutique hotel, a bit up the hill nearby seapoint mall. Very beautiful garden with two pool areas, very cosy, very clean. Very nice staff, you feel welcome at check-in. Did not make us of the breakfast, so can't say anything about that. Nice add-on: They host a tea-time with cakes in the afternoon.
All good, nothing to complain.

The staff were exceptional and so warm. The breakfast spread was very good. The rooms and pool areas are first class.
Nothing. Everything was excellent.

Location is nice, not far away from the beach and restaurants, a bit uphill.
Very friendly and nice staff.
The garden with 2 pools is cute.
All in all, the hotel is ok. But for that price, I'd expect better accommodation.
The room was disappointing. Tiny, on the ground floor, next to the staircase and a storage, with no view, facing a busy and noisy road and a construction site. This room must go for a lower price, 3-4 times lower. Can not tell about the other rooms, checking other reviews, they seem a lot better.
No electric sockets in the bathroom.
Hangers for towels and toilet paper were broken.
Breakfast options are very limited and are not tasty in our opinion, the French toast in particular. Better go to cafes in the city.

We stayed in the family suite, which was superb. The bedrooms were very comfortable and very large, and the bathroom was fantastic. The breakfast was delicious, and the service of all staff was first class. We'll definitely look to stay with you again if (when!) we return to Cape Town!
I suppose there could be slightly more room for car parking, but we got a space in the small onsite car park, so all good!

Almost everything, the service was excellent from all stuff.
Property is beautiful and well mantained. A very nice touch with the afternoon tea.
The unbearable noise from the room above, it seems like the floor is wooden, so all the movement the guest/s made I could hear throughout the night. May be, soundproofing both rooms would solve the problem, otherwise everything was enjoyable, there's nothinv else I didn't like.
