Ek sal weer daar gaan bly mits daar aan higiëne en stowwerigheid aandag gegee word.

Goed geleë naby Nuweland en UCT. Lekker ligging ook naby goeie restaurante. Netheid kan verbeter. Blinders aan vensters is baie stowwerig asook bo-op yskas in buite kombuis. Lig buite op stoep kan nie afskakel nie en pla mens in die aand as jy wil slaap.

I will stay there again, provided attention is paid to hygiene and dustiness.

Well located near Newlands and UCT. Nice location also close to good restaurants. Cleanliness could improve. Blinds on windows are very dusty as well as on top of fridge in outside kitchen. Light outside on porch cannot be switched off and bothers you in the evening if you want to sleep.

The customer service wasn't bad because nothing was missing but we didn't feel very welcome. The breakfast had been substandard. The rooms look better in the photos than in reality.

Terrible experience!

Our room that we have booked (showed it was available online) was occupied on our arrival and another room was given to us that faced the very dirty and untidy garden! The Guest House looks absolutely nothing like the pictures! The pictures are very misleading and I will never go back there or recommend this place to anyone to stay.

Rondebosch Guest House 's response

The guest came for a hospital appointment and booked for 2 nights in 2 separate beds as they were 2 ladies. I showed them the double room and the elder lady said her partner, the younger lady is her son's PA, not a relative and therefore would prefer a larger room to give her more space.

She was given a family room because it had 2 double beds 5 metres away from each other.

But the real problem is the next day after her hospital appointment she wanted to check out and wanted a refund as the hospital changed her operation date. She told me so and was not happy because of no refund. I then showed her our cancellation policy.

She did not sleep in the garden, which, in her opinion, was dirty.

A really pleasant stay and perfect venue for the cricket.

Saeed was so helpful! We chose this location because it was near to Newlands Cricket Ground. It was very pleasant and very safe. Saeed, the manager, could not have been more helpful. It was a real pleasure to have met him. The room itself was fine, and the shower room was perfect.

Everything excellent: room, food, friendliness.

We were picked up from the airport by the manager Saeed. He showed us the local area, then took us back to the hotel. The room was beautiful, large, clean, bright and airy, with TV and continuous Wi-Fi. Bathroom was very clean and the supply of hot water was excellent. The management was very friendly was always willing to help with any request. We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay. A big thank you to everybody.

Good, clean budget accommodation in a central location

The accommodation was clean and well kept. The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially Sayed the manager and his assistant Richard. It is very secure, quiet and well situated. I cannot comment further as we were only there for one night. The breakfast, although continental was both well presented and ample.

Our stay was pleasant, safe and we felt like we were in a 5 star hotel.

We had a room with a view of Table Mountain and our own enclosed balcony and open balcony. It was clean, neat and refreshed everyday. Breakfast was served outside and it was fresh, filling and beautifully presented. Our car was parked inside the premises and we were given our own remote, so we could come and go as we pleased. The only thing I was wary of, was the owners dog, who lives on-site, but he was separated from the guests. Special thank you: Saahid and Richard and John, for making our stay feel like we were in a hotel.

Its a relaxing, peaceful place to stay. It's home away from home.

The rooms are clean,comfortable and spacious. The customer services are helpful,as well as hospital. A great place for leisure, business etc.I do recommend however, that a different breakfast should be served daily (alternate what you offer for longer staying customers).

We were happy with our accommodation and it served our needs for the time we needed. For future reference, please remove 'secure parking / behind remote gates' from your booking page, as there is no such thing at this establishment, we had to park out on the street.

Excellent place to stay. Very warm and friendly customer service

We (a group of 5 people) enjoyed our stay at this guest house. It is relatively new and as such there were a few minor hiccups like a lack of good heaters in rooms. However, this was more than made up for by the excellent, warm hospitality and great customer services provided. I would definitely recommend this place.
