We arrived a day late to cape town due to flight issues and were greeted by a Villa Zest representive at the airport, Mr Youssef a wonderful gentlemen who gave us the insight into this beautiful city. This was our first time travelling to South Africa and Youssef gave us fantastic tips on what to do on our holiday. Know... More

Villa Zest is a small boutique hotel near the V&A waterfront in Cape Town, ZA. It is very trendy and modern, exceptionally clean with very friendly staff. We stayed here January 2012 on a tour of South Africa and were VERY pleased with the service and rooms. We would recommend this to family and friends as a great hotel especially... More

We had a great stay at Villa Zest! The staff is very helpful and friendly. We had a room at the garden/pool area that was very nice, design and clean! The pool area is very nice and relaxed! Also have great snacks and breakfast! We had a perfect first and relaxed day of 2012 there! More

This small boutique hotel is a true gem of a find. With only 7 or 8 rooms, they great you as a person, not the person in room number 347. Attention to detail, immaculate rooms, AMAZING location. The internet was a touch unreliable, but with so much to do in the city, we didn't find ourselves in the room much.... More

Although we preferred the location and decor of the other hotel we stayed in (Derwent House - see my other review), this is... More

Everything about the Villa Zest was wonderful. The staff is friendly and helpful. The decor is retro 70s cool. The rooms are comfortable and incredibly clean. The location is great for walking to the V & A Waterfront and local restaurants. (The hotel's restaurant recommendations were suburb!) The only drawback: the rooms by the pool can be a bit noisy...

I spent 3 nights here which extended to 4 when my flight home was cancelled but this caused no stress. The staff were wonderful, from booking attraction tickets to refilling my wine glass to printing my boarding pass. The room was very comfortable (loved the ipod speaker) and breakfast was great. My only slight gripe was the inconsistent wi-fi connection... More

We stayed three nights at Villa Zest and can't think of a bad thing to say. The rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower hot, and the bathrobes a nice extra touch! The room even had an iPod charger. It's an easy walk to the V&A Waterfront too. The continental breakfast is lovely; they'll even make you hot... More

We spent one night here before we started a wine tour, and we're very glad we did! This is a charming place with fantastic staff. When we arrived after a long flight, they greeted us with a glass of wine in their backyard garden area. They were very informative, friendly and helpful. When we arrived back at the end of... More
