    This is a very nice place to stay. It is located in a small and quiet street. The breakfast is fabulous and the room was clean and cozy. Especially the big bed with a lot of pillows invites you to have a relaxing night.

    The bed was OMG so comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud! The private pool and deck were mind-blowing - we had the coolest private chill spot! The staff were amazing, so polite and friendly, they really knew how to make us feel super welcome. The breakfast was delish, with fresh and plentiful options - we were stuffed! The location was jaw-droppingly central, close to all the cool spots. Our room was like a dream with a fab bathroom and a lovely patio area with a plunge pool. our stay was beyond amazing, highly recommended!

    Had a blast flipping through outdated maps in their dusty library. Splashed around in my private pool with dim lighting for an intellectual soak. Sat on the patio pretending to be sophisticated with a cup of coffee. Breakfast was only slightly tolerable. Enjoyed walking to Long Street to find mediocre nightlife.

    Wow, just wow.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at this luxurious hotel and I must say that it exceeded all of my expectations. The location was perfect, situated close to popular attractions like Table Mountain and downtown Cape Town. I loved being able to easily access these places while still enjoying the calm and peaceful atmosphere of the hotel. The breakfast was simply excellent, offering a wide variety of options to satisfy all tastes. I especially enjoyed the cooked breakfast dishes, they were delicious!

    I would highly recommend this hotel to my family and friends. The location, service, and room amenities were all outstanding, providing enhanced comfort and quality services.

    My stay at this trendy B&B was absolutely mind-blowing! The staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate any request I had. The cleanliness of the facilities was top-notch, and the room itself was jaw-dropping, with a comfortable bed and a stunning bathroom. The private patio and pool added an extra touch of luxury and made me feel right at home. The location was perfect, with easy access to popular attractions and a stunning view of the mountain. The breakfast options were super delicious, and I loved being able to enjoy my coffee in the comfortable pool area. The free upgrade to a room with its own splash pool was an unexpected treat. my stay was beyond amazing, and I can't wait to come back!

    Great location for exploring the city and easy access to public transport. Breakfast was delicious and included several options. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making us feel at home.

    The towels were old and worn out, the room could use some maintenance, and the internet was unreliable.

    My stay at Dunkley House was great value for money. The room was spacious, comfortable, and had a lovely patio with a plunge pool. The location was central and convenient, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

    For breakfast offerings, it would be better if they started serving at 7 am to accommodate early risers.

    The location of this guesthouse is perfect for exploring the city, with easy access to both shopping and dining options nearby. Our room was comfortable and clean, with a great selection of breakfast dishes made to order every morning.

    Although we had a great experience overall, we did encounter a minor issue with the towels in our room having some small holes.

    We had a great stay at this hotel. The breakfast was delicious with a variety of options. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, especially Grace who assisted us during a medical emergency. The hotel facilities were fantastic, including a private pool, lounge area, and tea-bar facilities. The location was quiet and convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions like the Company Garden and Castle.

    It was all superb.

    The location of the hotel was impressive, making it easy to navigate around. the hotel is spacious and the rooms are cozy and well-designed. I enjoyed the stable wifi as it allowed me to work without any interruptions.

    The hotel's amenities were not well maintained and in need of refurbishment. the cleaning staff needs to improve their cleaning services and maintain the different spaces, including the pool area.
