Don't dare to complain!
On arrival, the room was far smaller than expected and certainly not as per the pictures when selecting the room and, so upon arrival, I rated the check-in (as per Hotels.com email) as fair with my view that it was not what we expected. The reason for this was that the room was very small, had no suitcase stands to place luggage and effectively required me to place a suitcase in front of the door when closed. Not ideal from a fire safety point of view. We met the housekeeper the next morning and she offered some nice banana loaf and coffee and we complimented her with how clean our rooms were. On the first night, the water in the shower was lukewarm and the following morning we had no hot water. The information in the room only listed a cellphone number which I tried to call at 6:40 but got a voice message requesting me to send an SMS. Which I did and only after 2 hours did I get a response. By then I boiled water in the kettle and made a plan for us to wash. The next morning we met the owner, Sabine, and she attacked my wife and me for rating the room "not what we expected". We got in an argument about us not discussing this with them but they were nowhere to be seen. We were actually thinking of checking out due to the very aggressive attitude but as we already paid for one more night decided to stay, but we declined coffee and banana bread that morning! Even though the place was very clean and the housekeeper was super friendly, Sabine ruined our stay.

Perfect host, lovely house, great location.
Sabine is the perfect host, she received us as we were long friends. The service they provide goes beyond the expectations. We got all the information and help we needed and she was very helpful on the checkout too. The hotel is a lovely colonial house, in good shape and in a good area, close to city center and many good restaurants. When we return to Cape Town we will look nowhere else.

Ok, but not what one is led to expect
The property is beautiful and the owner seems very kind. I should start by saying this is not at all a bad place to stay but I do think the place needs to be announced in a different way. It's more like an airbnb than a hotel and that makes a difference when you're not expecting. The first room we had was not good at all but the owner accomodated our request to change rooms the next day. The next room (6) was good-sized, but there were no curtains in the bathroom and we had to hang a towel to avoid being seen by the neighbors just two meters away. Rod, the owner, says the glass blocks any view, but it doesn't, I'm afraid - part of the glass is a perfectly transparent big rose. There were other issues: the bedroom was extremely cold at night and with only one electric heater available and turned on at night only, we really struggled to fall asleep on a cold bed. Every other hotel we stayed in after that one, along the Garden Route, had a eletric blanket of sorts, so I don't think it's unreasonable to expect something like it if the place is open during Winter. But overall, the discomfort was more related to the fact that there was no one there. We were led to book a shuttle because we arrived late, which is fine, except that it costs double the uber and is kind of mandatory because the lady has the key. She was great but she can't carry luggage, so again, it defied expectations. We knew the breakfast was limited, but at the end we just felt we could have paid less in an airbnb

The Cape Colonial is located in a very nice neighborhood, close to Kloof Street, which is full of restaurants and bars. We got a nice but tiny room. The staff was very responsive and helpful. A very simple breakfast is served. I wished they had more croissants available for guests:)

À recommander absolument
Sabine, la maîtresse de maison, est très accueillante, serviable et de bons conseils. Nous nous sommes sentis très confortables durant notre séjour au Cape Colonial. Le quartier est calme et sûr, tout en ayant supermarché, restaurants et bars à proximité.

Pleasant and Personal
Our stay at the Cape Colonial was very brief, but very pleasant! Be sure to check-in no later than 8pm, as this is a small guesthouse run by a single (lovely) couple! There was great tea and coffee available at all times and the baked goods available in the morning tasted fresh and possibly homemade. Would definitely stay again!

Quiet clean simplicity
Owner Sabine was efficient and helpful in contacting me beforehand, re check-in. My room had original stripped pine floorboards and a comfortable bed, and plenty of good lighting. An anti-mosquito screen on the window, and better WIFI upstairs might be a good idea. However I have no complaints and thought the property excellently run and managed.

Old style accomodation and old style good service.
Just as the name says, "Old Colonial" Style, relatively spare furnishings, but fresh muffins as a breakfast snack and very friendly service from the co owner Sabina. Close to the Company Gardens, plus Kloof and Long streets, so vibe and tranquility close by.

Great guesthouse in a quiet neighbourhood
We had a lovely stay at The Cape Colonial. The owners helped us with transfer from and to the airport, and gave us some great tips on restaurants and shops in the neighbourhood. Our room had high ceilings, lots of room, a big comfy bed and, best of all, a nice balcony where we enjoyed our tea and muffins and banana bread in the mornings, and some snacks and drinks (buy your own at the local supermarket) in the evenings. There is free WiFi and some books to borrow while you are there, and we also got a free map of the city to help us find our way. The guesthouse is at an easy walking distance to the Company Gardens, the National Gallery, Greenmarket Square and Bo Kaap, and we had no trouble getting around. We'd definitely stay here again next time we come to Cape Town!

Perfekte Lage und tolle Gastfreundschaft
Wir waren vier Nächte im Cape Colonial. Mit Blick auf den Tafelberg und die Erreichbarkeit von allen wichtigen Dingen in der Stadt, ist die Unterkunft einfach perfekt. Dazu sind die Räume sehr schön und sauber. Vor allem die Gastfreundschaft von Sabine hat uns überzeugt, jederzeit wieder zu kommen. Hier wird alles für Gäste getan und man kann sich rundum wohl fühlen.

Wir kommen wieder.....
Zu Beginn unserer Reise waren wir im Cape Colonial. Da es uns so gut gefallen hat, sind wir zum Ende unserer Reise nochmal zurückgekehrt. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt, ein sauberes und geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Haus in bester Lage. Sabine, vielen Dank für Deine Gastfreundschaft und Unterstützung.

Danke Sabine
Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und erhielten ein Upgrade. Sabine ist eine sehr freundliche Gastgeberin, die ihre Gäste verwöhnt. Zum Frühstück gibt es guten Kaffee und Tee, selbstgebackene Muffins und Bananenkuchen. The Cape Colonial ist ein sauberes und sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Guesthouse in bester Lage. Die Abende auf der Terrasse, bei einem guten Glas Wein, haben wir sehr genossen. Zum Ende unserer Reise werden wir hierher zurückkehren.

Absolute Empfehlung
Das Guesthouse hat eine super zentrale Lage. Man kann abends zu Fuß zu den Lokalen in der Kloofstreet oder Loopstreet laufen. Der „rote Bus“ ist auch nur ein paar Schritte entfernt. Mit dem Auto ist man schnell am Tafelberg und zur Camps Bay. Parkplatz hatten wir fast immer vor der Tür auf der Straße gefunden. Wir haben uns sicher gefühlt. Sabine ist einfach klasse. Man fühlt sich direkt wohl und willkommen und bekommt super Tipps. Unbedingt ins Café Paradiso gehen! Danke an dieser Stelle noch einmal. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Friendly guest house
We received a really warm welcome and all the information we needed about cape town. The room was clean and comfortable and the guest house is v close to a supermarket and just off a main road with plenty of bars and restaurants. I would recommend a stay here.

Lovely place close to attractions
The hotel is situated in a good location close to the city. There were plenty of food options around so it was very convenient for us. The room we had was extremely clean and spacious. We loved the decor of the room, which has a vintage feel to it. And also, the banana bread and muffins served for breakfast were very delicious. One thing however, as it is an old building, there is understandably no lift so travellers with big luggages will have to bring them up the stairs. Nevertheless we had a very pleasant experience here.

Liebevoll geführtes Guesthouse in toller Lage
Sabine ist eine supernette Gastgebetin, sie kochte uns Kaffee zur Begrüssung und zum Abschied und vermittelte uns sehr spontan einen sehr netten Fahrer zum Wine Tasting als unsere Robben Island Tour ausfiel. Das Haus ist sehr gemütlich und die Muffins und das Bananenbrot morgens auf der Terrasse einfach ein Traum:) Vielen Dank Sabine, ich werde das "The Colonial Guesthouse" gerne weiterempfehlen:) Liebe Grüße Claudia

Sehr gut gelegenes, hübsches Guesthouse in Gardens
Super nettes Guesthouse, das aufgrund seiner tollen Lage direkt an der Kloof Street und nir 5 Minuten vom Tafelberg ein toller Ausgangspunkt in Kapstadt ist! Morgens ein kleines Ritual - Banana Loaf und Muffins mit Kaffee :) Das Zimmer war auch sehr nett und ausreichend groß. Wir hatten ein Zimmer ohne Balkon, welches sich unten gleich neben der Küche befunden hat. Morgens war es ein wenig laut, da in der Küche bereits Geschirr verräumt wurde, etc. und eine Nacht hatten wir leider sehr laute Gäste direkt über uns (die alten Häuser im Kolonialstil sind wunderschön, aber eben auch hellhörig). Die Matratze unseres Bettes war auf der Fensterseite schon recht durchgelegen. Ansonsten aber alles zu unserer vollen Zufriedenheit. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Tolle Lage, gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis
Ganz liebe Hosts, die Lage ist perfekt. Für ein paar Tage in Kapstadt genau das richtige. Alle hippen Cafés und Restaurants sind in Laufnähe. Riesiger Supermarkt um die Ecke. Parken ging ganz gut fast immer vor der Tür. Für ein Pärchen ideal.
