    The location of this guest house was mind-blowing, just a short walk to the beach and surrounded by plenty of shops. The staff were super friendly and accommodated our every need, even going above and beyond to help us when we were too hungover to move. The room we stayed in was comfortable and we were lucky enough to be upgraded to a spacious upstairs room. The outside patio was jaw-dropping with a great dining area and braai facilities. All in all, a fantastic stay with friendly staff, a beautiful location, and great amenities.

    Enjoyed the stunning views of Table Mountain, especially from the sunny private patio. The lush garden created a lovely atmosphere.

    Oh dear, forgot to bring my own butler. How bothersome to do the cleaning myself!

    Thank you very much for a very relaxing stay, loved it. the hotel's position was lovely and stunning walking distance to restaurants and bars. - the place was minutes from Codfather Seafood & Sushi, where you can have dinner. I had a wonderful, relaxing time at Swiss Cottage Guest House. the location was fantastic, within walking distance to great restaurants and bars. I also enjoyed the convenience of being just minutes away from Codfather Seafood & Sushi for delicious dinners.

    The Garden Suite and African Room were absolutely charming with their own en-suite bathrooms. I felt like I was in a cozy little oasis. The small en suite double room was sunny and comfortable, perfect for a relaxing bath after a long day of exploring. The double room with a toaster, tea/coffee maker, and microwave made my mornings so much easier. I could enjoy a quick breakfast without any hassle. It was a nice touch to have a kettle in the room, so I could enjoy a warm cup of tea whenever I wanted. The view from the double room was absolutely breathtaking. Waking up to such beauty was a treat. I loved that the double room had a tea/coffee maker, it made it feel like my own little home away from home.

    Personally, I found that having a TV in the room was unnecessary. I preferred to disconnect and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

    had an amazing romantic weekend in Cape Town and Swiss Cottage exceeded our expectations! The location was perfect, just a minute walk to the beach, restaurants, and supermarket. The room was stylish and spacious, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

    Bathroom a bit cramped and uncomfortable.

    Enjoyed the scenic view of Table Mountain while sipping my coffee on the sunny patio. The fully furnished apartment gave me the luxury of feeling at home.

    I absolutely loved bumping my head on the low ceilings and having no space for my luggage in the shoebox-sized room. Ah, such charm!

    Recently stayed at a guest house in Camps Bay for a few nights. The room had a great view of the Mountains and the bed was comfy. It was also very quiet, which was perfect for a peaceful night's sleep. The staff recommended some fantastic dinner and breakfast options nearby, since the guest house didn't have catering. The location was excellent, within walking distance to all Camps Bay restaurants, the sea, and public transportation stops. a great experience with friendly staff and a comfortable room.

    Strongly recommend this hotel.

    I always choose this place for my stay because the friendly staff, clean rooms, and convenient amenities make me feel like home. They even helped me find my lost earring once. It has everything I need like free Wi-Fi, luggage storage, outdoor dining area, and more. Can't wait to come back for New Year!
