    Breakfast was the same every day and it would have been nice to have some more variety. The pool water was too cold so we could not use it.

    It was a beautiful and quiet location with a nice garden, clean and comfortable rooms. Breakfast was served outside whenever the weather allowed it. It was freshly prepaired. Staff and owner were all superfriendly.

    We had room 4, next to the lawn, which is more a small holiday house than a room. With a big bedroom and a huge bathroom, terrace with seating out front. Not only breakfast, but dinner is also possible. And it is very good! Staff is very friendly and helpful.

    No Complaints!

    Highly recommended, a very well presented and well run establishment. Staff had just the right level of attentiveness, good breakfasts and the one evening meal we took at the hotel was excellent. For such a desirable location, close to the attractions of the Western Cape the price was very reasonable.

    Our stay at Glen Avon Lodge for two nights was a lovely retreat. Our room was so comfortable and very thoughtfully designed. We had all we needed. Even dressing gowns. The property is in a lovely area filled with beautiful gardens and trees. Close to restaurants so we were able to walk to one at night and feel safe. The breakfast provided was delightfully displayed and absolutely delicious from the sweet ripe fruits right through to the continental and hot breakfast. A banquet for sure. We enjoyed sundowners and breakfast on the balcony over looking manicured flower gardens 👌🏻 We will definitely stay again. Such service and comfortable affordable accomodation is a delight to find. A credit to all we dealt with there. Thank you 🌸

    Only filter coffee at breakfast and not enough milk for tea in the rooms. The pillows were too hard.

    When it was good weather we sat on the terrace for breakfast. We didn’t eat dinner in the evening. Good location for getting around CT and felt safe

    Well maintained. Friendly and helpful reception upon arrival and throughout our stay. Nice pool area and loungers. Excellent restaurant for evening meals on site and convenient for an alternative just across the road. 15 mins from the amazing Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens and half an hour from the Table Mountain cable car.

    An oasis of calm at a great location. Our room was spacious, even with the addition of the baby cot, with directly outside an almost private terrace. Beautiful pool area with adjacent garden. A simple but delicious breakfast, and everything was tended by wonderfully friendly and helpful staff. We liked our stay so much that we extended with one more night.

    Air-con broke down in one of our 4 rooms. Unable to repair it and had to order a part.

    Staff went out of their way to do extra for us! They brought us wrapping paper when we needed it, helped with all our bags and were always pleasant and professional at the same time.

    A great location just outside the city.
