What a pleasant experience! Oude Leeskamer is an unassuming, charming B&B located within walking distance of fantastic restaurants, the botanical gardens, museums and more. A great selection of books in the lobby, excellent choices for breakfast and comfortable beds and rooms inspires lingering and slowing down. When heading out, do yourself a favour and ask Paul and Co. to recommend... More

We stayed from April 3-4 and April 11-12 in Oude Leeskamer and we enjoyed it very much. Paul and his staff look very good after their guests. Paul has a very good knowledge what is going on in the region and his recommandations made our stay in the region of West-Kap perfect.

Oude Leeskamer is a beautifully restored property that has class and convenience. The rooms are very well appointed and make you pleased to be there. The balcony we had was a delightful extra. It is only a minutes walk from all the nice places to eat in Church Street and the recommendations given are spot on. The managers and staff... More

The hosts were welcoming and very helpful. We enjoyed our room with balcony overlooking the courtyard. Excellent housekeeping. (And I am fussy) The bells... More

We stayed 4 nights - I have stayed many places in Stellenbosch and this was the best so far. The hosts were just wonderful. Best breakfast and excellent location! Some rooms are a bit small, but the balcony helps.

Welcoming staff and friendly throughout our 2 night stay, but I was disappointed overall. The luxury double was very small (including the bathroom). Yes, fine, it's an old house with charm, but a small room is a small room, regardless of charm. We specifically chose a room with balcony as previous reviews were v complimentary of the pleasant courtyard, however... More
