The Chocolate House is an old beauty with excellent hosts, Lee and Johan. They made our holiday super-special. The atmosphere is welcoming, warm and hearty, the rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated and have personality, the breakfast was just delicious. It is a jump away from Devils Peak and it's located in a safe area, 5 min. to the city centre! We spent 11 fabulous days in the Chocolate House and we definitely will come back! And last not least there was Versace, who delighted my heart!

Our hosts were excellent, they were always on hand to help and ensure that we had the best possible stay, not only in their b&b but in Cape Town as well. The décor is wonderful and the breakfasts are delicious, made to personal order and substantial. The location is convenient for both the airport and for Cape Town and there is a reliable taxi service on hand so we could go out and enjoy the lovely South African wines without having to worry about driving home. There is an excellent local restaurant as well which was ideal for when we had had a long day and wanted to stay closer to home. Thoroughly recommended.

The hotel has a sweet name and is well located. The european style interior decoration and lay out reveals good taste of art. Romantic and quiet. Breakfast prepared by Lee is superb with the whole wheat bread freshly baked and the smell greatly enhanced one's appetite. Johan and Lee are extremely warm to their guests. Though we only stayed for one night, I strongly felted the sorrow of parting in the morning. Highly reccomended.

We felt at home in this b&B. The owners are such a lovely people, so kind and helpful. They were a great help. I want to emphasize the great hosts they are. The room was very nice, and the forniture in all the house is beautiful. We really enjoyed the meal that Johan prepared for us before we leave. The bathroom was across the hall.

La atencion y calidez especial de sus duenos, la limpieza inmaculada, el cuidado de cada detalle, el servicio de desayuno, cada dia diferente y personalizado, la ubicacion en cuanto a la accesibilidad de todos los lugares de interes. Si bien cada habitacion cuenta con un bano privado y muy bueno, el mismo no esta dentro de la misma habitacion.

The Chocolate House had a very homey/stylish decor, and the B&B owners were very warm and welcoming. Location was not too far from the highway with easy access to the city and airport.
