    The venue suited our needs and expectations. We did not use the extra facilities like kitchen, sauna or jacuzzi. We had a good stay with good value and could not fault

    All of our needs were satisfied The staff were friendly and efficient and not intrusive We liked the additional security offered on site and on the road

    Exactly as pictured, close to table mountain. Need to phone to get the gate open to get in. Good communication with host prior to arrival. No tea/coffee in room but was in a room across the hall. Very good location for airport (20min) and table mountain.

    This beautifully renovated Victorian style home offered great view of Table Mountain in a safe neighborhood. The Belvedere offered no thrill comfortable accommodation. You don’t even get complimentary drinking water in the room. We had made reservations to use the jacuzzi one early evening but the water was barely warm. You barely see much of the staff to ask for anything. The bed is very comfortable and the Aircon worked great and there were plenty of power outlets.

    The pillows if you do not like very high pillows! A reminder to travel with my own pillow. Everything else was great. Would recommend a little Q20 on the squeaky cupboard doors and dimming the passage lights at night as they shine in through the doors which do not seal well.

    Perfect for the overnight we were looking for. Enjoyed the sauna and jacuzzi. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

    The rooms have a carpet, it was clean but i prefer the wooden floors like the rest of the house.

    The colonial house is beautifully decorated, the bed was very comfortable and the room had a balcony outside and you can lay in bed with the door open and get the fresh air from the mountain. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The house has a fully equipped kitchen and dinning area which is very convenient. The location is very good and quiet. We really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend it.

    Some of the photos didn’t quite match up to the property but I think they were having some renovation work done at the time we stayed.

    Room was comfortable. Nice shower. Balcony was a nice touch and fab views of Table Mountain! Staff were helpful via WhatsApp if needed. In a very nice area with a few places to eat nearby, and not far from the main attractions still.

    It would have been nice to have more signage or explicit directions on the use of the hot tub and sauna and including the heating/cooling system in the room. It just happened to be a much cooler visit than we anticipated and our rooms were so cold. The hot tub also seemed dirty with debris in it and took way too long to heat!

    We really enjoyed the common space that we could share to stay connected with our traveling companions. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and accommodating for all our needs. It was really nice that there was a full size refrigerator and freezer for all of us to use and really appreciated the full size wine glasses!

    The outside area is a bit run down and communication was not great at all as there is only one remote to the gate that has to be left behind each time you leave. No staff members to be seen.

    Room was lovely - very nice decor and comfortable bed.

    The four packets of snacks (peanuts and chips) in the room and available for purchase had all passed their sell-by date months ago. There was no staff member on site when I checked out, nor visible during the weekend. The bedside lighting is not bright enough for reading with older eyes. The keys to the front door and bedroom were tricky to operate. Despite these issues, I would stay again.

    Large high-ceilinged room, lots of cupboard space, comfortable bed, clean bathroom with nice shower, coffee machine, doors opening onto veranda, sufficient on-street parking, quiet location away from busy roads.

    I just think that the guests need to be informed that the downstairs bathroom is used by all and should be kept clean. I would appreciate if we had access to the kitchen if it is not too much of a hassle.

    The large open room with beautiful decor. The king size bed. And the balcony with a garden table and chairs was an added bonus. I loved that.

    There was always some maintenance guys around, fixing something. I think that can compromise how safe we feel

    The welcoming was not done by the owner. So we didn’t get any information to start our visit of the city. This was a shame. Although breakfast was indicated as a possible service at booking time, this service was not offered. We had to take our breakfast outside the premises. So, don’t expect to have experience exchanges with other customers on site.

    Room was very comfortable as expected. Cleaning service done every day and perfect. House location was also very good and safe in the evening.

    We were happy with our stay - not issues to mention.

    Belvedere House is a heritage home that has been beautifully renovated. The guest house has all the amenities you could need with beautiful views of the city and Table Mountain. A great little cafe and bakery is just around the corner and you can walk to enjoy the suburb, The room was very comfortable and presented us with all that we could need.
