Welgelegen House

My husband & I were lucky to stay for 4 nights at Welgelegen House early October. Memory and Prince looked after us so well. We were booked into a standard room and when we had a problem with the shutters Memory was really quick to get this sorted out and even offered to move us. All of the staff were so friendly, smiley and helpful. Nothing was ever too much trouble and there was lots of support and advice. It was really easy to book Ubers from here to get to the V & A waterfront and a five minute walk to several restaurants in Kloof Street & you couldn't beat the view of Table Mountain behind.

Perfect for a 3 night trip to Cape Town with my daughter. We had an upper balcony room with an amazing view of Table Mountain, Memory was very helpful and always around to answer questions. Room was very comfortable with shower pressure. Breakfast was plentiful and offered many choices including fresh omelettes and french toast. Location is on a very quiet street but is close to many restaurants as well as beaches. We never had to wait more than 3 minutes when ordering an Uber. We especially enjoyed relaxing in the pool/garden area each afternoon before dinner. We would stay here again.

The staff here are so friendly and helpful and Rita the chef runs a great kitchen! The hotel is fine, in a residential area, maybe needs a slight refurbishment but otherwise great, hence 4 stars rather than 5. I had a room with great views to table mountain. Plenty of restaurants to walk to, and very easy getting a taxi anywhere. Highly recommend eating at The Black Sheep, 5 min walk away.

Beautiful place to stay in a great area close to excellent restaurants in Kloof street . Memory made us so welcome and all the staff were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Rooms comfortable with stunning view of Table Mountain. Breakfasts excellent and snacks free during the afternoon with an honesty bar for drinks . Smart, comfortable but also relaxed atmosphere, would totally recommend.

An amazing welcome from Memory set the tone for our 6 nights. This truly is an exceptional place to stay. Both Memory and Prince made us so welcome and couldn’t do enough to make our stay special. Restaurant recommendations were excellent. Nelson’s Eye for Steak and Black Sheep for seasonal menu. The beds are really comfortable and breakfast just great. We would love to return

We enjoyed a fantastic 3 night stay at Welgelegen. Best welcome from any hotel - EVER! Prince & Memory welcomed us as if it was there own home. Couldnt be more welcoming, friendly & super helpful with restaurant recommendations & best way to get about the city. Nothing too much trouble... WOW service! Our room was very spacious & comfortable. Spotlessly clean. Lovely lounge area & hotel has bags of character. Excellent breakfast selection. Welgelegen is situated in a quiet but very convenient location for exploring the city near Kloof Street, the Waterfront, Camps Bay & much more. Highly recommended. Thanks to all the team for making us SO welcome - it was truly a memorable start to our South Africa adventures!
