I stayed at The Chocolate House for 2 days while working in Cape Town. The room was excellent and the food fantastic. Johan and Lee are very good hosts and I had a great time. They pay attention to detail and make an effort to make one feel at home. It is easy to see why so many guests regularly... More

The Chocolate House is conveniently located for the airport and Cape Town. There is a reliable taxi service so it was easy for us to travel into Cape Town to enjoy the sea front and wine without having to drive. The accommodation was extremely comfortable and clean with luxurious bedding and "his and her" bathrobes. Our hosts were excellent and... More

We stayed at the Chocolate House for a week. We had a big, clean room which looked pretty much like it does on their website. Fresh towels and bathrobes are provided every day. Johan is mostly in charge of the kitchen and provides an excellent breakfast, which keeps you going until dinner. The entire house is cramped with antiques, bric-à-brac... More

This has got to have been one of our best Guest House experiences. The hosts, Johan and Lee, were fantastic; nothing was too much trouble. It was a pleasure to share their home with fantastic furniture and interior decorations - maybe slightly over the top for some but just typical of the guys. Johan did us a picnic for our... More

Located at the foot of devils peak. Old style house with detailed victorian period fittings create a unique atmosphere. The hosts are very committed to ensure that you feel at home and go the extra mile. Excellent breakfasts served. The house is easy to access being a simple 1km from the highway making access in & out very easy. Well... More

The house is gorgeous with all old furnitures and well made design and decoration. The breakfast is fantastic - much above the 4 star hotel breakfast. The rooms are comfortable and cosy. The only but was that the bathroom of my room was separated. The owners stand behind all this - Johan and Lee. And the cat and the dog... More
