The team went above and beyond to make our stay special. We were staying at Welgelegen just after our wedding nearby and the team accommodated an early check in (and made it quick as they assumed our day would be busy!) and greeted us with champagne and a lovely card. The room was amazing (the bed so comfortable and bath luxurious!) and the breakfast was delicious! Thanks for everything Prince and all the staff!

We had an amazing time at this hotel! We started our honeymoon here with a short one night stay prior to staying in another capetown hotel. This place was absolutely stunning, and the staff was beyond words! They warmly welcomed us starting from pickup at the airport and we’re extremely attentive and engaging. We cannot recommend this place more! Loved our time here- it was too short!

Peaceful oasisin Cape Town
A lovely guest house with friendly, helpful staff in a quieter area of Cape Town. Close to the shops and restaurants on Kloof Street and easily accessible to all the sights in and around the city. A great base.

Perfekt om man ska bo i Kapstaden några nätter!
Ett litet hotell i Gardens som hade allt vi önskade som trevlig och hjälpsam personal, fräscha rum, bra frukost. Har bara gott att säga om hotellet. Även en mysig innergård med en liten pool som tilltalade.
