Kettle's Guesthouse

Quiet and safe neighbourhood, nice side sea view, comfortable bed, coffee machine.

A little bit remote, 40 min walk to the Beta beach or Camps Bay. With Uber is everything easier. Photos in gallery are not updated, communal kitchen is not available. Staff could be more kind and warmer. A little bit too expensive for what we got.

THE ROOM WAS NOT WHAT THE PICTURES LOOKED LIKE IT DID NOT HAVE A KITCHEN SHOWER HEAD IN THE SHOWER WAS SO LOW THAT YOU HAD TO BEND DOWN TO TAKE A SHOWER THE BED WAS SO UNCOMFORTABLE YOU COULD NOT SLEEP WE ENDED UP LEAVING AND GOING SOMEWHERE ELSE

The view

No curtain so too much light in the morning No bottle water after a long flight of 12 hours, tap water is not an option when you have are fragile Bathroom was full of flies and the bathtub water was not going, it was blocked

I can only recommend Kettle's Guesthouse. The neighborhood is wonderful, the view incredibly beautiful. Staff was kind and helpful! Thank you!

Everything! The location, the staff, the room, even the other travellers staying there. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience

I loved everything about the property.

Price is in alignment with the location. Room and toilet was clean and pool area was great on the sunny day we used it. Great location for exploring Camps Bay, Lions Head, Signal Hill, Table Mountain etc. Very safe neighbourhood.

It's not a big problem, but gates and doors would have been great if they had latching locks rather than having to unlock from front and lock from back: gate 1, gate 2 and building door (before the last room door). Was a bit of a task at night when dark and after a few drinks.

The only thing we liked was the Big comfortable bed and the white sheets. The room also had air conditioning and hot water was always available.

In this place, they use pictures to deceive us. For example, the room I booked furniture was different from what I saw on the app (if you want real pictures let me know), the couch cushion next to our bed was old and dirty, the chaise balcony chair cushions were dusty and the pool area is the one that deceived us the most as the wooden flooring was old and wearing out, shows that it hasn't been maintained in a while, the pool was always dirty and I don't think they should call it a heating pool because the water was always cold. The beautiful views of the ocean we expected were obscured by ugly old and untrimmed trees. And also there is no generator there for when there is load shedding (disappointing). There is only one Iron and Ironing board for the place of 8 rooms, so you wait for one another to finish using the iron so you can get a chance. In conclusion in the pictures, it seems as if it's a nice place but in reality, it shows that the whole place is poorly maintained and poorly managed.

Incredible views over Camps Bay, Lions Head and the 12 Apostles. Great balcony and pool deck. Good location about a 5 minute uber into the center of Camps Bay. The room itself wasn't particularly special but it was clean and had everything you need.

This is not the property's fault at all but be aware that supermarkets in Camps Bay don't sell alcohol so if you would like to enjoy a glass of wine on your balcony and watch the sun set then you'll need to buy a bottle while in central Cape Town.

Clean and comfortable, reasonable sized space. The aircon worked well as it was really hot. I didn't have a room with a Seaview but the outlook was fine.

Nothing major I suppose, but there is room for improvement...There was no street number that I could see, which made finding the correct house more challenging than necessary. The lighting at the outside gate was poor which meant fiddling around in the dark with keys at night. There was no interaction with staff- I stayed for 5 nights and not once did anyone find out how my trip was going/ if I was happy with everything? I would have appreciated some sort of lamp/light for loadshedding times...
