    excellent coffee
    cramped room
    limited breakfast variety

    Had a sweet as stay, but the room was a bit cramped and breakfast could've had more variety. The coffee was top-notch, though, so that was a win!

    The breakfast spread is a highlight—impressive home-cooked pastries, fresh fruits, and delightful juices each morning. The garden area, complete with sunbeds and a small pool, offers a serene spot to unwind.

    My room had noticeable plumbing issues, including damp walls and a shower with missing tiles, which were not ideal for comfort. the standard double room felt cramped, not to mention the small bed which could be uncomfortable for couples.

    charming decor

    An Instagram-worthy gem!

    From the moment I stepped into Sweet Orange Guest House, I was enveloped in charm. Every detail, from the delightful decor to the warm hospitality of the staff, made my stay exceptional! The breakfast options were not only delicious but also beautifully presented—especially the homemade pastries that paired perfectly with fresh fruits and delightful juices. I loved that the location was just a stone's throw from shops and a quick walk to the beach, allowing for easy access to everything Cape Town offers.

    great breakfast
    limited kids' activities

    We stayed in a Comfortable King Room, and it was so relaxing! The kids loved the breakfast spread, especially the pancakes. The staff were genuinely friendly, making us feel right at home. It’s perfectly located near Main Road with great restaurants.

    For dads, it would be great if they had a few more kids' activities.
