Where to begin here? Will never forget arriving from the UK winter… The personal welcome and the feeling of being guests rather than just another room number… loved the utterly charming period house, and our room which had a balcony overlooking the city and views beyond. Homely, relaxing, with lovely garden with plenty of space to chill with a glass of wine after days out and about. We felt we could not have been in a better location: Oranjezicht, a relatively peaceful and beautiful setting, right at the foot of Table Mountain yet within an easy and cheap 10 min cab ride from the V&A and Camps Bay. If you prefer this kind of set up to being in the thick of the busy/hyped up tourist zones and can get a room then look no further! Huge thanks to Maaike and her wonderful team. You made our time in Cape Town extra special.

This place is lovely! Not only did we feel super comfortable & safe in this cozy guesthouse, everyone around made such an effort in making our stay perfect. Mice and her team really care about their guests - this made it special for us. The location is great, we loved the breakfast and afternoon coffee on the terasse. We will be back!

Staff are fabulous. Breakfast excellent. Room was spacious and spotless. Location brilliant.

It was quite cold in the hotel generally. The bed was two singles pushed together - wanted a double bed.

We utmost enjoyed our vacation at the welcoming, warm and cosy Acorn House. Our stay was simply perfect under all aspects. The hosts of the guesthouse (Natalie, Denise, Beata, Sandy as well as the whole staff) were just fantastic. Great breakfast, quite but still central location.
