Stay here was arranged by colleagues for the night prior to a conference. Arrived fairly late, left early in the morning before breakfast, so didn't get to try that, sorry I missed it. The room was wonderful, on ground floor, and the grounds are very nice. I hope to go back again and stay longer!

Love that they provide ground filter coffee and a bodum / coffee plunger in the bedrooms. Overpriced for ordinary accommodation in comparison to what I'm used to in SA, but everything was clean and tidy, and the staff friendly. Very nice breakfast!

This guest house was wonderful! The staff were very friendly and helpful. I had a beautiful room, which was clean and fresh. It was decorated well and had everything i needed. The balcony was perfect as it got the afternoon sun. The breakfast was to die for! The selection of food was great. I only stayed for one night but... More

We stayed in the apartment nr 2 for 10 nights in March. The apartment block is located around the corner in a quiet street. There are 4 apartments in total, 3 downstairs with terrace facing the swimming pool and garden and 1 upstairs. We had apartment nr 2, the superior one. It is HUGE! The bathroom has a separate bath...

We thought this guest house was really lovely. Our room was superb and spacious and comfortable, the breakfast was great (served outside in a stunning garden by the pool). It was really reasonably priced for what you got. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this guest house.

My brother and I stayed overnight prior to Die Burger Cycle Race. Absolutely perfect. No frills, no fuss, just good honest accommodation and ablutions. Elmarie is a great hostess. Breakfast could have been a little more imaginative but hey, we were up at 05h00!

Spent our last 2 nights of our holiday at Rustenbosch and found it quite comfortable. Our room was on the first floor and was extremely spacious with a large bathroom. It was well equipped although wardrobe hanging space was very limited. The reception staff were very pleasant, friendly, and exceptionally helpful. The only negative from our perspective was the traffic... More

My wife and I spent two nights at Rustenbosch in Nov and used it as our base in Stellenbosch. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our room was luxurious with its own balcony, mini kitchen area and large bathroom. The staff were very friendly and gave us some helpful recommendations for dinner. Breakfast was a choice between continental and cooked and... More

We picked this guest house because it was close to Stellenbosch town centre, was reasonably priced compared to others, and had rave reviews, and we were not dissapointed. It is immaculate, the hosts were most helpful (even giving a bottle of sparkling wine to our son who was celebrating his 30th birthday while there), the breakfast lovely and the rooms... More

Our group of four (2 couples) stayed in two guestrooms for two nights toward the end of our trip to the World Cup. Stellenbosch is the perfect place to relax after a week experiencing Cape Town. Rustenbosch has a great location; still in town but partially tucked away from major traffic. The staff was polite and professional. Complimentary breakfast was... More
