A peaceful and quiet retreat in Cape Town, Selton Guest House offers a serene atmosphere perfect for unwinding. While we didn’t get a chance to swim due to the location being a bit further from the beach, the overall stay was excellent. The property is well-maintained, clean, and very welcoming. It’s also conveniently located for exploring the city—easy access to public transit and nearby attractions. Definitely a great choice if you’re looking for a calm, comfortable base while still being close to everything.

The studio apartment is beautifully designed with a unique artistic charm, especially the pottery studio corner—so creative and cozy. The whole atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it easy to imagine coming back again and again. Located in a quiet yet accessible part of Cape Town, it’s the perfect blend of comfort, culture, and tranquility. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful, authentic experience.

Staying at The Quadrant Apartments was an absolute delight! The view of Table Mountain from the large windows was breathtaking—every morning felt like waking up in a postcard. The apartment itself was spotless, cozy, and well-designed with modern touches that made it feel like home. Communication with the team was excellent—prompt, friendly, and helpful throughout our entire stay. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect.

Staying at Little House Villa was a pleasant experience overall. The location is very convenient, with easy access to downtown via public transit.

Vineyard Hotel
This hotel feels like a true oasis in the heart of Cape Town. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with real charm—spotting turtles wandering around added such a unique touch. The pool area is spacious and relaxing, perfect for unwinding after a day exploring. What truly stood out was the staff’s genuine care and attention. Especially grateful to the manager, Wilmo, who personally remembered our breakfast preferences—my husband doesn’t like eggs cooked the usual way, and Wilmo made sure they were prepared just right. That kind of thoughtful service makes all the difference. You can tell everyone here genuinely wants you to have a great stay. It’s not just about comfort—it’s about feeling welcomed and valued. Easy access to the city by public transit, excellent value, and unforgettable hospitality. Definitely coming back.

The lush garden and sparkling pool create such a peaceful retreat right in the heart of Cape Town. Ros, the host, is absolutely wonderful—thoughtful, attentive, but never intrusive. She makes sure every need is met without ever overstepping. I loved the honesty bar—it’s so convenient and adds a nice touch of independence. The coffee machine is top-notch; perfect for morning brews. The rooms are spacious, beautifully furnished, and incredibly comfortable. It’s one of those places you instantly want to return to.

Newlands Peak Aparthotel by Totalstay
My stay at Newlands Peak Aparthotel by Totalstay was absolutely fantastic. The location is excellent—just a short walk from local cafes, shops, and public transport, making it super convenient for exploring Cape Town. The apartment was spotless, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable trip. The bed was a bit narrow, but since we’re on the slimmer side, it wasn’t an issue at all. Overall, the value for money was outstanding, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the ambiance felt cozy and welcoming. I’d definitely book here again next time I’m in Cape Town.
Wild Olive Guest House
Staying at Wild Olive Guest House was a truly enjoyable experience. The property is beautifully designed in a modern Cape Dutch style, blending colonial charm with contemporary touches. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the ground-floor common areas have a stylish, nostalgic vibe that pays homage to South Africa's colonial past. I appreciated the convenience of drinks available in the fridge for purchase—perfect for a quick refreshment. The pricing was fair considering the quality and location. However, it was disappointing that supplies weren’t restocked when the owners were away. Breakfast was decent overall, though the Eggs Benedict could’ve been better—more flavorful and properly cooked. One major downside was the constant staff turnover, which made it hard to build rapport with any consistent point of contact. It felt like every time I needed help, I had to start from scratch. Despite this, the ambiance, location, and overall comfort make this a great choice for travelers seeking a unique and authentic stay in Cape Town. Would definitely recommend for those looking for character and charm.
