I arrived at Mountain Manor for check in. The receptionist was clearly a temp staff member and while she was friendly clearly had little enthusiasm for the place. My room had a well-worn carpet with stains in it that had not washed out particularly well. Of the two fans, only one worked. One of the bedside lamps also did not... More

We needed a guest house due to our apartment being flooded out. Beautiful colonial guest house....needs some TLC. Staff lovely and friendly. Room very spacious. Would have liked the ceiling fan to have worked. Could certainly recommend.

During our recent trip in South Africa, we had to make a last minute booking as we could'nt find any place for the New Year's Eve. Thanks to Gisele from African Twist Travel Agency, she'd booked for us one night at Mountain Manor Guesthouse. The place is just perfect, very peaceful, precious & quiet. Michelle, our host, is helpful and... More

Be a bit careful here - they will ask you what you want for breakfast weeks before you get there and then expect to charge you for breakfast whether or not you have actually eaten there. We compared prices and discovered that breakfast was much cheaper in town, so we ate in lovely cafes centrally, and then discovered that we... More

Exceeded all expectations, very good breakfast, warm ambience. Excellent guest house in city centre, beautifully renovated breakfast area, warm and friendly staff, lovely pool area. Top notch facilities and conference centre. Good security at all times. Attention to smallest detail by Michelle and staff, will surely be back soon

When it came down to search accomodation in Cape Town i was a little sceptic at first, reading through the reviews on Trip Advisor. We decided to give this place a try and it was well worth it. If you like older buildings at a central location in Cape Town (Gardens), then this place is a must. All the rooms... More

We had a one-night stay, and wish it could have been longer! The gracious old house has a lovely "colonial" feel to it, there was more than enough space, good quality furniture and a well equipped kitchenette. A small balcony overlooking the pool area added to the charm. Thanks Michelle and staff!

On entering the Guest House I felt the warmth eminated. The guest house had wonderful staff from Malawi greeting me and showing me around. I stayed in one of their upstairs rooms called the "superior room". I honestly loved the colonial feel to the place, the cleaness and helpful owner who somehow never said no. I was fetched from the... More

Due to changes in our itinerary we required a hotel room for one night. I found this Guesthouse offering an excellent rate, the room was described as a "queen". We found ourselves at the back end of the hotel, which appeared to be a warren of rooms. On entering the "queen" we had to carefully plan where we could open... More
