- Avg. price/night: $97.56Scored 9.29.2Rated wonderfulWonderful · 250 reviewsFantastic guest house in a great location which is ideal for exploring the Cape. The hosts Michael and Jeanne are terrific and are extremely helpful with great local guidance. Breakfast was a real treat - most of the food is either local or home made (bread and yoghurt). Jeanne also bakes a 'treat of he day' which is always delicious. Our room (202) was excellent - large bedroom with a terrace facing the sea. The property is in a cul-de-sac and so it is very quiet. Highly RecommendedBennettYoung couple
- Avg. price/night: $95.93Scored 9.59.5Rated exceptionalExceptional · 501 reviewsLoved our stay at the Tintagel Guest house. Big comfortable bedrooms, immaculately clean. Wonderful hosts, friendly and helpful, they happily arranged dinner reservations for us. Lovely breakfast, outside in the courtyard on good days, inside when it became windy. Secure off road parking. Great location, close to Kloof Street, Long Street and an easy drive or inexpensive taxi to all the main city centre attractions and the Table Mountain Cable Car station.

- Scored 9.49.4Rated wonderfulWonderful · 75 reviewsThe guesthouse is warm, inviting and quite spacious. It hosts everything (amenities) you could possibly need for a trip away from home. The outside area was great for a morning cuppa and some quiet time, making for a peaceful transition into a busy day. In addition to the wonderful space, Trevor and Glenda were such great hosts, transparent and accommodating to our needs before and during our stay.HameedahFamily with young children

- Scored 9.69.6Rated exceptionalExceptional · 148 reviewsCheviot Place is a great place in a very quiet neighborhood. The house is very charming and you can walk to places like the Waterfront or Green Point Park. There are a large number of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. On the other hand, James is a great host and has given us many good tips for restaurants, excursions, etc. In summary, Cheviot Place is a highly recommended place to spend a few quiet days in Cape Town in a family atmosphere that makes you feel at home.
