Lovely colourfull place! Owners are really friendly and relaxt. We felt at home. At the end of the day we were looking forward to go back home, just to relax and enjoy the good admosphere! The location is perfect. It's a walking distance to the boulevard. Easy for Uber to get there, so i'd say 'if you go to CapeTown, go and stay at AmiVineHouse!'

Atholl house is a jewel in the Cape Town accommodation space. Tine and Ani and the entire staff were so professional and attentive from the moment we arrived. The property has three very spacious rooms with all the comforts of home. Our stay in Cape Town was further enhanced by the local knowledge that the team gave to us. If ever considering Cape Town as a holiday destination or just a few days stop over, you could not find a more professional and comfortable stay.

Perfect one night stay. John was welcoming and so was the dog. I stayed in the single room which is great for a solo traveler and has everything and more than I needed. Would definitely stay here again

  • Bayflowers Guest House

    Guest House in Three Anchor Bay, Cape Town
    Avg. price/night: US$122.84
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.3
    Superb - What previous guests thought, 368 reviews
    Fantastic guest house in a great location which is ideal for exploring the Cape. The hosts Michael and Jeanne are terrific and are extremely helpful with great local guidance. Breakfast was a real treat - most of the food is either local or home made (bread and yoghurt). Jeanne also bakes a 'treat of he day' which is always delicious. Our room (202) was excellent - large bedroom with a terrace facing the sea. The property is in a cul-de-sac and so it is very quiet. Highly Recommended

    Loved our stay at the Tintagel Guest house. Big comfortable bedrooms, immaculately clean. Wonderful hosts, friendly and helpful, they happily arranged dinner reservations for us. Lovely breakfast, outside in the courtyard on good days, inside when it became windy. Secure off road parking. Great location, close to Kloof Street, Long Street and an easy drive or inexpensive taxi to all the main city centre attractions and the Table Mountain Cable Car station.

  • Cheviot Place Guest House

    Guest House in Green Point, Cape Town
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.7
    Exceptional - What previous guests thought, 275 reviews
    Cheviot Place is a great place in a very quiet neighborhood. The house is very charming and you can walk to places like the Waterfront or Green Point Park. There are a large number of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. On the other hand, James is a great host and has given us many good tips for restaurants, excursions, etc. In summary, Cheviot Place is a highly recommended place to spend a few quiet days in Cape Town in a family atmosphere that makes you feel at home.

    I stayed at 10 different guest houses during my trip in South Africa and Maartens Guesthouse is definitely my favourite! His warm personality, wicked sense of humour and attention to detail really makes us feel at home. He’s not only a great host but also a very kind friend. Thank you for having us!

    Great location in a quiet area, ideal for the airport, city and other destinations. Very relaxed, non-pretentious guest house. Excellent cooked breakfast, the 'kitchen sink' omelette is specially recommended. Kevin and Hermann were very welcoming and great hosts.
