We stayed here at the beginning of our holiday in South Africa. It was a perfect place to relax and wind down in. The rooms are fine for what they are - ours (room 3) was small but we were possibly unlucky as there were definitely bigger ones available. It was fine for a three night stay, a few steps... more

Although it's been almost a year since I stayed here, I had been meaning to come back and write a review. I agree with a previous poster that this place has been over-rated by trip advisor - the reason we choose this place to begin with. BTW - we are a 30-year-old married couple from Canada. I'll start off with... more

The beautiful south is a great choice when you want to stay close to the city center. It is about a 15 minutes walk; you walk past the university through tree lined avenues; very nice. Our room was comfortable, but a little small, compared to other rooms we had during our stay in RSA. The pool area and the breakfast... more

The Beautiful South is a lovely guest house just outside the city centre of Stellenbosch. The rooms are nice, the staff are very friendly & helpful and the breakfast is lovely! The only thing you have to bear in mind is that it's a 15-20 minute walk to the city centre. We did a wine tour with Tsiba Tsiba which... more

We (a family of four) stayed here in April for four nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We chose to stay in Stellenbosch as our base for the Cape. It is ideally situated for the wine region and it is only 30mins from Cape Town, out of rush hour an easy drive. The guest house is situated within walking distance... more

We had a very pleasant stay here but believe this accommodation has been over-rated by Trip advisor readers in the past. We suspect a number of guest you have stayed here in the past have not experienced true South African B&Bs when writing their reports. more

I choose The Beautiful South because of the Trip Advisor reviews and the great price. It's a good deal for the price, but it did not compare well to the other Trip Advisor top rated B&Bs we stayed in throughout S. Africa. I appreciate what the hotel is trying to do by making a cute affordable pace, so if you... more

This was our first trip to South Africa and The Beautiful South was our first port of call. We stayed here for 3 nights and were made to feel very welcome and comfortable. We arrived early in the morning (6am) and the hosts Peter and Katarina organised an airport transfer for us. We were able to get changed, store luggage... more

This guest house was our first stop on a 10 day holiday. We were greeted by Catalina who was so helpful. As we arrived early, we relaxed by the beautiful pool and soaked up the sun. Soon after we were shown our beautiful room, which was clean and modernly decorated. The breakfast wasn’t your traditional fare! The fruit and bread... more
