Beste verblyf in die hele area.

Fantasties. Smaakvol en interessant toegerus, ruim kamers, goeie gehaltelinne, beste ontbyt wat ek nog by gastehuis gekry het. Sal beslis aanbeveel. Baie billike tarief.

Danel D

Fantasties!

Die verblyf was absoluut tops en die gasvryheid vandat ons daar aangekom het totdat ons gery het was fantasties! Sal definitief die plek aanbeveel en hulle in die toekoms ondersteun!

Do not hesitate to relax when you stay here - there are so many beautiful things.

It was my third stay at this exceptional B&B with its neat, interesting, well-kept and excellently equipped rooms, tasty (and pretty) breakfast and professional reception. Best of all, it succeeds the test: excellent coffee. The price per person may look high, but it is competitive for the environment and the quality - but please allow yourself that treat!

Haas jou inderdaad langsaam wanneer jy hier bly - daar is so baie mooi's.

Dit was my derde verblyf by hierdie besondere B&B met sy keurige, interessante, fyn versorgde en uitstekend toegeruste kamers, smaaklike (en mooi) ontbyt en professionele ontvangs. Les bes, dit slaag die tongtippietoets: uitstekende koffie. Die prys per persoon mag hoog lyk, maar dis kompeterend vir die omgewing en die gehalte - maar laat gerus jouself dié bederf toe!

Franse rustigheid in die stad.

Ongelooflik netjies. Ontvangs was baie vriendelik en gasvry. Ontbyt was baie lekker. Sal die plekkie definitief aanbeveel aan almal.

Vriendelike ontvangs in Afrikaans.

Baie netjies en als net soos op advertensie. Baie goed geleë en maklik bereikbaar. Elna was vriendelik en het ons dadelik tuis laat voel. Die eenhede het alles in wat nodig is vir die verblyf. Pragtige omgewing en tuin. Dankie vir heerlike ontbyt en gasvryheid.

Waarlik ‘n home away from home.

Dit was ons tweede verblyf daar en ek sal beslis weer daar oorbly. Die diens is baie goed en die mense baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die kamers is uniek en baie gemaklik. Die ontbyt word mooi voorberei en word na jou eenheid gebring, dus kan jy rustig in die tuin/eenheid eet.

Our stay at Festina Lente is always a pleasant one. Words don't do justice to the service and the beauty of this Guest House. The host is amazing. She is friendly and very thoughtful. The units have everything you d need. From a hair dryer, bath soap, wash cloths, iron and ironing board. It is located at a quiet place and units are very private. If you are around Sandton and need a place to stay this is it. You will not regret your decision, and it is worth every cent. They also serve breakfast which is delivered to your unit at the time you requested.

Lovely accommodation and great service!

We enjoyed our stay Festina Lente very much. The breakfast was delicious and the rooms, each with its own theme, was unusual. I will definitely be making use of this accommodation again.

Lieflike verblyf met goeie diens!

Ons het ons verblyf by Festina Lente baie geniet. Die ontbyt was heerlik en die kamers wat elk sy eie tema het is iets besonders. Ek sal beslis weer van die verblyf gebruik maak.

Very approachable host/hostess, breakfast very nice.

The units are very cold, but otherwise I can recommend it.

Gasheer/vrou baie toeganklik, ontbyt baie aangenaam.

Die eenhede is baie koud, andersins aan te beveel.

Lovely, peaceful atmosphere. Fantastic!

I would recommend Festina Lente anytime. It is located in a peaceful environment and the units are neat, beautiful and artfully furnished. The host and hostess are pleasant people and they serve a lovely breakfast that wasn't just delicious, but also look yummy. Well done!

Heerlike rustige atmosfeer. Fantasties!

Festina Lente sal ek enige tyd aanbeveel. Dit is geleë in 'n rustige omgewing, die wooneenhede is netjies, mooi en baie kunstig gemeubeleerd. Die gasheer en gasvrou is aangename mense en hulle bedien 'n heerlike ontbyt wat nie net lekker is nie, maar ook lekker lyk. Well done!

Gasvryheid in 'n Victoriaanse atmosfeer.

Die Van Niekerks het my so tuis laat voel! Festina Lente sien my vir seker weer as ek vir opleiding moet gaan in Sandton. Die dekor is cosy en baie smaakvol. Die ontbyt was heerlik en hulle het baie aandag aan die fyn detail gegee wat my spesiaal laat voel het.
