easy access to waterfront and dining spots

I loved how this place was conveniently situated in Green Point, making it super easy to stroll to the V&A Waterfront in just over a kilometer and enjoy the scenic views along the way, with great eateries like El Burro and Shift Espresso Bar just a short walk away, adding to the charm of my stay.

absoluteley charming setting but the service was less than acceptable. I was given a broken heater and had to trek in my pajamas to fetch an oil heater myself. not to mention, they couldn't even provide reliable wifi, which is scandalous. I can't believe I didn’t get a welcome gift for all this trouble.

Well-maintained outdoor pool and lovely garden area.

The breakfast situation was absolutely intolerable. there were insufficient staff to manage the number of guests, leading to long waits for food and even empty plates. I faced a frustrating situation when I was left without any breakfast options for two days, forcing me to leave the guesthouse to find food elsewhere. Additionally, the rooms, while clean, showed signs of wear and needed urgent repairs that detracted from the overall comfort of the stay.

Opt for a room away from the entrance to minimize noise disturbances from late arrivals.

It was just a smart choice for a city trip in Cape Town with definitely value for money. The cozy living room made it feel like a home away from home. Remember to use the safe for your valuables to avoid any issues.

great location but needs better lighting

The guest house had a cozy charm with beautifully decorated spaces, making it a pleasure to return to after a day out. The pool area was inviting, perfect for lounging, and I appreciated the friendly staff who were attentive to every detail. It was just a short 10-minute stroll to the waterfront, with plenty of dining options nearby, which added to the convenience of my stay.

However, the common areas lacked sufficient lighting for evening use.

brenwin guest house was a lovely place to stay! we had a standard double room with a nice private outside area. the location is perfect, just a 10-minute walk to the waterfront, and the breakfast had a good selection with hot items cooked to order. the staff were so friendly, especially chef caroline, who made our mornings special.

a mild critique would be the slightly dated interior.

During my stay, the breakfast featured classic fried fish, which was expertly prepared and a delicious surprise. The charming atmosphere extended to the beautifully decorated rooms, enhanced by original artwork. However, the steep incline to the guesthouse left me breathless, and the tiled stairs posed a challenge, particularly for those with mobility issues. Additionally, the pool was rather cold, making it less inviting for a swim during the winter season.

the location was a bit tricky to find. but the room had a nice mix of antique and modern decor. the gardens were beautifully maintained and the pool looked inviting. breakfast was tasty and included a good selection of choices.

The guesthouse offers a lovely garden area with an outdoor swimming pool, perfect for relaxation. The staff are incredibly attentive, ensuring everything runs smoothly. Breakfast is served at 9:20 AM, which is a nice touch!

However, the common room wasn't lit at night, which made it hard to enjoy the beautifully decorated space after dark.
