Each room was a unique experience and the historic building was elegant. Decor throughout was wonderful. We came for 4 days stayed 6. This property is owned by a wonderful couple who made us and the other guest during our stay feel at home. Once inside of the grounds, we felt completely relaxed, safe and welcomed. The breakfast was outstanding... More

My husband and I are still reliving our experiences throughout South Africa, one of which was at 51 on Kloofnek. The guesthouse is located in a great, upscale neighborhood - easy walking distance to hip bars, restaurants, shops...and about a 10 minute drive to Table Mountain. The house is very Shabby Chic and very comfortable. We loved our room (comfy... More

Stayed 3 nights at the start of our holiday. 51 is located on the main m62 through town but once inside we were hardly concious of the traffic. It is a very good location for the many restaurants two blocks downhill on Kloof street. The house has been very elegantly fitted out and provided all the facilities we required. Breakfast... More

Spent a wonderful 10 days at this guest house in December. Sakkie & Ann-Marie - who does a marvellous breakfast - are just lovely and pull out all the stops to make you feel at home. Only one down side - I didn't want to leave!

We spent 3 nights at 51 Kloofnek this month and we really loved this place. The accommodation was very comfortable, the owner Sakkie and his team were great and we really did not want to leave. The location is excellent and there are several restaurants within walking distance if you dont wish to get a taxi into town. The breakfast... More
