We enjoyed a wonderful fortnight with Rod and Sabine proving to be excellent hosts. The room was comfortable and the breakfast delicious. As importantly our hosts were friendly and very helpful in booking taxis, restaurants and giving us suggestions and advice. Thoroughly recommended.

We had a great stay at the cape colonial and Rod has been a very friendly host. The guesthouse offers everything we expected for its class. The food is good and fresh, the place is clean and very quiet. We will surely make another visit in the near future

Stayed in the Cape Colonial for the last 3 nights of our 2-week trip. The facilities compare favourably with those we found elsewhere.

Close enough to everything to be able to get almost everywhere on foot but far enough from the main drags to be able to sleep at night. The building itself is... More

My wife and I, other members of our family and friends have all stayed at the Cape Colonial. We have stayed there for all our frequent visits to Cape town and have never been disappointed. The rooms are clean and quiet, the breakfast is great and Sabine and Rod have become friends over the years. We can highly recommend it!

My husband and I arrived in Cape Town and were excited to stay in the Gardens neighborhood. This B & B is in a great area with lots of restaurants and within walking distance to many attractions in Cape Town. Parking is on the street and is difficult. The room we were given was on the top floor and was... More
