    Unfortunately, we had to leave early to catch our next flight to Cape Town, so we missed the breakfast for that day— but that was no fault of the property owners. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and I would be happy to return again.

    My stay was wonderful — the environment was very safe and serene, with top-notch aesthetics that made it truly welcoming. I especially enjoyed the breakfast, and I look forward to returning again

    Towels were clean but very musty smelling. We had booked a room with twin beds but the booking.com website did not relay this info to Bastion House.

    Friendly staff, comfy bed and delicious breakfast. Beautiful gardens.

    Our room was incredible. There was clear attention to detail when it was designed and everything about it felt so intentional, from the lighting style to the furniture. It was comfortable and had all the amenities as advertised. Also breakfast was great!

    Only the electric gate that jumps a small bit once opened. Giving you the idea of closing as you go out.

    The breakfast was very good. The facilities were excellent. The service from the owners were excellent. They are very accommodating to help us with changing to suit us as a family. They allowed us to use sitting room to meet with family. Thank you.

    Absolutely nothing.

    Absolutely everything! The owners are hands-on and so friendly. All the staff are very friendly. The breakfast is cooked by the owner and is delicious. The room was divine, my daughter and I loved our overnight stay. The bathroom is lovely and I especially loved the hanging basket. The little bar fridge was well stocked and I like the fact that there’s an honesty bar with access to alcoholic drinks. Having filter coffee in the room in the morning was absolutely wonderful! The gardens are phenomenal and I could spend hours walking through and looking at all the beauty. What a quaint and beautiful place to stay. We will be back!!! And also we will recommend this place to everyone.

    Our room had built in stairs which is a challenge for my wife. However it is also on me to check the room structure before booking. Also small air cooler not effective for the heat in Pretoria 😁

    Its a lovely hidden gem and has excellent service

    Honestly cannot think of anything we did not like.

    Wow!!!! What an absolute gem of a place! We will most definitely be returning when in the area again! We loved the beautiful surroundings, gardens and architecture with the most exquisite artworks throughout. Attention to detail was most appreciated. The comfortable beds with block out blinds and absolute peacefulness at night allowed for a wonderful nights rest. The breakfast in the morning was 5 star, most delicious offerings and excellent coffee. The hosts and staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home. We cannot wait to return! A little piece of paradise!
