Our stay at the hotel was nothing short of amazing! From the cozy rooms with stunning views of Table Mountain to the incredible service provided by the staff, everything was just perfect. We loved the breakfast spread every morning, though I wish there were even more hot options available. The ambiance was incredibly inviting, making it feel like a home away from home. Overall, it was an incredible value for money, and we can't wait to come back!

We had a wonderful five-night stay at the Welgelegen Guest House in Cape Town. The rooms were spacious, quiet, and meticulously clean, and we genuinely appreciated the personal touch from the staff, who made us feel at home. The location was perfect, just a short walk from vibrant Kloof Street, packed with great dining options. However, we wished we could have spent more time enjoying the beautiful terrace and the inviting atmosphere of the guest house.
