Traumhaftes historisches Anwesen mit perfektem Service
Pros:

Herrliches historisches Anwesen in ruhiger, sicherer Lage im Außenbereich der Stadt. Sehr freundliches Personal, herzlicher Service, herrlicher Garten, hervorragendes Essen.

Cons:

Nichts. Nur ein Innenpool wäre bei dem schlechten Wetter spitze gewesen ;o)

Exceptional - Highly Recommended for Anyone visiting the Cape Town Area
Pros:

Truly Exceptional Experience and an Excellent Choice to Stay in Cape Town.

The welcome was warm, friendly and professional, followed by an equally exceptional introduction to the hotel areas and our suite. We were given a complimentary uograde. Whole team are very friendly, helpful and professional.

Our suite was well equipped and beautifully furnished.

The High Tea was outstanding, one of the best we have had and truly compares with the best in the world, matching and even surpassing the likes of the Ritz. Dorchester and George V.

Dinners and lunch are very good and the Cellars restaurant and lounge areas have great ambience.

We most certainly will return and recommend to anyone visiting the area.

A real treat
Pros:

This was an absolute treat of a stay. It was for our honeymoon and we were treated incredibly nice. We made sure to make use of all the amenities. We got one of the best massages we’ve ever gotten. The dinners were so tasty and breakfast was worth going to. Have zero complaints.

Rustgevend verblijf in de wijnomgeving Constantia.
Pros:

Ontbijt rijkelijk. Aangezien het winterseizoen gestart was, werden er s'avonds verwarmde waterkruiken in bed gelegd. Omgeving heel mooi aangelegd. Rustgevend en veilig.

Cons:

Badkamer niet verwarmd. Bij ontbijt moest ik 2 keer 20 minuten wachten om mijn kop koffie te krijgen, alhoewel er voldoende bedieningspersoneel was. (Keukenprobleem?). Na klacht daarover ontving ik een gratis fles wijn ter compensatie.

Красочное знакомство с ЮАР
Pros:

Красивый отель в колониальном стиле, каждый номер оформлен с индивидуальным дизайном и использованием предметов искусства. Очень красивая, ухоженная территория, много растений и цветов. Ручные белки вокруг, утки, ибисы.
Виноградники прямо у здания отеля.
Очень вкусная еда с выбором блюд на разный вкус!

Alles in allem ein schönes Hotel, vorallem der Garten.
Pros:

Ein schönes Hotel inmitten eines wundervollen Gartens. Auch im Inneren überall Pflanzen.
Essen sehr gut, Frühstück auch sehr lecker.
Sicherer Ort in wohlhabender Gegend.

Cons:

Zimmer und Bad sauber und grosszügig, jedoch schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Müsste mal renoviert werden.
An den meisten Orten im Restaurant abends sehr dunkel, so dass man mit der Taschenlampe die Menukarte lesen musste.

A peaceful relaxing stay in this excellent hotel with high standards of service in Constantia
Pros:

It’s a quiet and safe oasis in Constantia where you are wonderfully looked after by very friendly attentive staff. Ideally located for visiting Kirstenbosch and the nearby historic Constantia vineyards. Excellent breakfasts and other meals in the well run Conservatory restaurant. Very comfortable rooms with good amenities. Waking up to discover an umbrella placed outside our room when it was raining was a nice touch.

Cons:

There’s nothing to dislike.
