Friendly staff, good breakfast, and location

Incredibly friendly staff, spacious rooms and great location within camps bay. I was quite sick during my two night stay and the staff did everything to help and make sure I was looked after. The room itself is very clean and large. The location is a short 5 min drive to the main strip of camps bay. The breakfast was generous with fresh local ingredients. Would happily recommend this hotel for a nice stay in camps bay.

We had an exceptional experience here. The hotel was impeccably clean, which made our stay comfortable. The staff were lovely and always ready to assist with a smile, making us feel right at home. Another highlight was the ample parking available, which is a huge plus in this area. The views from the hotel were great, offering stunning vistas of the ocean and surrounding landscape. Although we didn’t get a chance to use the pool, it looked well-maintained. Overall, we highly recommend the Sovn for anyone looking to stay in Camps Bay.

Our stay started off a bit rocky with several issues like our sheets being a bit dirty and key not working. However the Sovn team was quick to address these and they even compensated us with an extra day in one of their presidential suites and comping our laundry! Overall the property lovely, all the staff were great and super helpful, and the location was excellent with a little over 10 min walk to the beach. Would recommend for anyone staying in camps bay

La Guest-house la meilleure de Camps Bay

Cette Guest house est de loin la meilleure dans laquelle j’ai pu séjourner, et je voyage + de 200 jours /an. - L’emplacement est idéal sur Genova Avenue avec une vue à couper le souffle sur la plage de Camps Bay. Les couchers de soleils sont tout autant magnifiques depuis la chambre. - La chambre que nous avions réservé était particulièrement (très) grande, meublée dans le pure style nordique ce qui nous a convenu parfaitement. La salle de bain donnait sur la baie...prendre sa douche avec une vue pareille est paradisiaque. - Le petit déjeuner est quant à lui magique: fruits frais, produits locaux, pâtisserie différentes chaque matin et faites « maison », jus bio, bref le top...ce qui change des chaînes d’hotel ou c’est plus conventionnel. - Il faisait froid (25 degrés) donc nous n’avons pas testé la piscine qui au demeurant est propre, bien agencée et grande. - Ne pas hésiter à demander des conseils..ils se feront un plaisir de vous aider et bookeront pour vous les meilleurs endroits pour vos excursions. - Place de parking disponible à l’arrière de la maison pour la voiture, et sécurisé Enfin les propriétaires Tom et Jo, ainsi que l’ensemble de leur Staff, qui sont adorables. Jo prépare tout elle même pour le petit déjeuner et vous accompagnera tout au long de celui-ci. En résumé, cette Guest house est plus que recommendable et j’y retournerais bien entendu dès mon prochain voyage à Cape Town. Ne pas hésiter à appeler directement pour voir leur dispo.
