Ah, yes, there is only one word for this establishment: magnificent! I loved the furnishing - antiques, solid furniture, various accoutrements - and the spaciousness of the room.

More than a hotel, a home, with all the comforts. Our hosts, Johann and Stephan were Like family and watched over us with due diligence. Breakfast was abundant as was the Their attention. The location was perfect allowing us to get another view of Cape Town. Sincerly, Ira Madris and Bill Demma.

Examples of their going above and beyond the call of duty are, automatically pressing my business suit the day before a meeting, driving me to a meeting when a taxi was late, cooking my... More

Absolutely wonderful. Beautiful view, close to ocean and waterfront, super friendly service. Great WiFi by South African standards. The only downside is that you will be depressed when you have to leave. :)

We stayed two nights at this guest house. Having stayed in other guest houses in Cape Town in the past with mixed experiences, we decided this one definitely beat the competition and we would have no hesitation in staying at HH again. The location is great, yes slightly away from the main action, but only five mins or so walking... More
