Excellent - Beautiful
Pros:

I had an amazing stay at the Ocean View House. The staff was amazing, the spa was excellent and the property is absolutely beautiful. My room was spotless and the bed was very comfortable and cozy. The room was incredibly spacious, stylish and had the most amazing views. A beautiful terrace overlooking the ocean provided the most amazing sunsets and ocean life viewing (whales, seals, etc.). It's about a 15-minute walk to restaurants, shops, and other food options. I walked to and from the guesthouse multiple times and felt very safe. If you prefer an Uber/Bolt, they were less than a 5-min wait and a 5-min drive to or from the guesthouse. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone traveling to Camps Bay. *Their breakfast was absolutely delicious with fresh fruit and meats and eggs made up anyway you can think of.

Stunning Views and Wonderful Accommodations
Pros:

Fantastic hotel! The views are stunning and the hotel itself is gorgeous (manicured gardens, coy ponds, beautiful decor). The staff is very friendly. We stayed in the Garden suite, which was amazing (peaceful, private, and a view that I will conjure whenever I have a bad day at work).

Pros:

جميع الفنادق لابد من العيوب
ولكن الغرفه نظيفه ومنوره من الناحيه الإضاءة ومتوفر تايب سي للغرفة نفسها لأنها تم ترميم كامل الغرفه

Cons:

مدخل الحمام في درج لم انتبه وكذلك المروش
والطريق بعيد حتى يدخل لك موقف السيارات خاصة تحت العماره وتطلع منه نحو الممر ثم المصعد صغير الحجم
وفيه درج متعب

Peaceful location with beautiful views
Pros:

Ocean View House was the perfect place to begin our South African adventure. The grounds are absolutely stunning, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere from the moment you arrive. The staff was warm, friendly, and always eager to help.

We loved that the location was just outside the city. It was close enough to easily explore Cape Town while offering breathtaking ocean views and some of the most incredible sunsets each evening. It was the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility.

We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cape Town.

A comfortable stay in a nicely-designed hotel in beautiful surroundings
Pros:

One of the best hotel experiences we have had. Everything was perfect for us: the welcoming and helpful staff, a spacious room with a comfortable bed. The hotel is located at the foot of the Table Mountain and is surrounded by a beautiful hotel garden.

A gem of a hotel in beautiful surroundings with welcoming staff
Pros:

This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. Everything was perfect: the location at the foot of Table Mountain and close to Camps Bay, the beautiful gardens surrounding the buildings, the spacious two-room suite with a large comfortable bed, and the welcoming, helpful staff. There is air conditioning that can be used for warming up the room during cold nights in winter.
Literally everything looked wonderful and well designed. The artwork in the lobby was impressive. This was truly one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had.
I am especially grateful to the hotel staff for responding so quickly to my message about the clothes I accidentally left in the wardrobe. They immediately found a way to help and arranged to send them to the address I provided. Their kindness and efficiency were greatly appreciated.
Highly recommended!

Cons:

There was nothing we didn‘t like.
