Lovely place
The only thing I didn't like was the bed and pillows but apart from that I can't fault the place. Really nice people and location.

Can't wait to go back
Gorgeous boutique guest house. The rooms are beautiful, beds super comfortable, great bathrooms. Breakfast was excellent and the honesty bar was the best-stocked bar we have ever seen with drinks we've never even heard of! Just a few minutes drive from local shops and restaurants and only about a 20-minute drive from the centre of Cape town. Definitely somewhere we will re-visit

A perfect and safe area to stay while my husband worked in an office for two days. We had a room overlooking the pool which although small, it was heated and great for a dip. There is a perfect restaurant within a five minute walk which was ideal for lighter lunches downstairs and a more formal upstairs for the evening. The staff could not have been more polite and helpful.

The noise of the air extractor was annoying. The view is not first line as expected

Response from The Sir David on 15 Oct 2018
Hello Dominique Thank you for posting a review- we appreciate it. We are most grateful that you mentioned the noise that you heard since we were not aware of it. Turns out there was a problem with the aircon units on the roof. Without your alert, and specifically the detailed description you gave us, we would not have been able to identitfy it so quickly. So, once again, please accept our apolgoies for the annoyance this caused, along with our thanks for the helpful feedback. The pics that we share are indeed accurate and so we can only say that we're sorry that your expectation was not fully met. Thank you too for the positive comments about our team that you shared upon departure. We trust that you will return so that we can shower you with more of that good service!

From a French who always come back when in Cape
Parfait comme d'habitude. L'un des rares hôtels où il m'arrive encore de faire des "Wow" quand je rentre dans la chambre et que je retrouve la vue en terrasse. Chambres, mobilier et lit impeccables. Check-in / check out anticipé personnellement. Super petit-déjeuner personnalisé avec du choix. Et puis... la localisation!

Beste individuelle Betreuung der uns verwöhnenden Damen. Wir besuchten das Gästehaus schon mal 2011 und wurden sofort wiedererkannt. Großzügige Räumlichkeiten (Aufenthaltsräume und Zimmer). Alles exquisit ausgestattet. Ausgezeichnete und gepflegte Lage. Ruhig gelegen in Strandnähe (Tafelbergblick!) und außerhalb vom Touristenrummel. 100m vor dem Haus beste Busverbindung (halbstundentakt) nach Kapstadt. Busfahrt zwar 1 Std. aber genußvoll, außerdem entfällt Parkplatzsuche in Kapstadt. Chefin der Rezeption nahm uns sogar abends zur Hinfahrt in ein empfohlenes Restaurant in die Innenstadt mit eigenem PKW mit.

Sehr komfortables und hübsches Hotel in Strandnähe
Das Hotel hat uns rundum sehr gut gefallen. Preis-Leistung stimmen hier absolut! Die Zimmer sind großzügig, sauber, hell und modern eingerichtet. Das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und hat uns alle Wünsche erfüllt. Wir hatten das Zimmer Nr. 1 (wohl das Zimmer mit der besten Lage/dem besten Blick) mit eigenem Balkon und Blick auf das Meer. Das Frühstück wurde mit viel Liebe nach unseren Wünschen zubereitet. Parkplätze sind ausreichend vorhanden. Die Gegend erschien uns sehr sicher. In unmittelbarer Nähe zu dem Hotel gibt es einige sehr gute und günstige Restaurants. Für den Weg in die City muss man ca. 30 Minuten Fahrtzeit mit dem Auto einplanen.
