    A Tranquil Retreat Close to Nature

    It's a bit far from the supermarkets.

    Our two-night stay at this hotel was absolutely delightful! Nestled amidst nature yet conveniently close to the city center, it offered the best of both worlds - a peaceful retreat just a 30-minute drive from the CBD. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort throughout our stay. Priscila, Winnie, and Kathe were incredibly accommodating and made us feel right at home. Plus, their adorable dachshunds, Papi and Gabi, added an extra dose of charm to our experience! The location is perfect for nature lovers, with easy access to Beau Constantia and scenic hiking trails. And let's talk about breakfast - it was a delicious spread that left us energized for our adventures. Convenience is key, and this hotel nailed it with its proximity to the hoho bus stop, making sightseeing a breeze for tourists like us. To top it all off, we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary sparkling wine and chocolate, making our post-wedding trip even more special. Special thanks, Kathe! Overall, our stay was nothing short of amazing, thanks to the wonderful staff, serene surroundings, and thoughtful touches that made our experience truly unforgettable. We can't wait to return!

    Quite some things which detracted from a 4 star rated accommodation - bathroom towels were fraying, bathroom taps were loose and the shower drain took long to drain the water. Parking was also quite a mission with no clear demarcations and limited space.

    Good breakfast, stunning views and great location in Constantia wine region. Also quick access to city or airport. Friendly and attentive staff.

    More information on the options for breakfast. For instance, were given fruit each day but didn't realise until the end of the stay that we could have had it with granola and yoghurt

    Outlook. Large and comfortable room. Very pleasant and helpful staff.

    Magical place nestled underneath table mountain. Very close to so many tasty restaurants and loads of great hikes nearby. A special shout out to the two little dachshunds who played tennis with us on the most scenic tennis court. The breakfast and staff were 10/10. It was a brilliant stay. I would highly recommend to stay here if you are visiting Cape Town.

    Personally, I wasn't keen on the animal skins and heads everywhere. It was quite upsetting to see. But I wouldn't downgrade it for that, as it is clear from the photos that this was to be expected.

    Wonderful stay here. Had a family-vibe. The breakfast was delicious and I loved the freedom to use the coffee machine at any time. The staff were lovely. Amazing views.
