Ansonsten wäre es schön, wenn man auch die Unterkunft unter Tags geniessen könnte. Dusche im 2. Schlafzimmer bitte reparieren. Ansonsten alles sehr nett ! Danke ! Handwerker waren sehr präsent !
- Nolufefe (9/5): -
- Daniel (8/5): - Location and the cleanliness
The property looks stunning I didnt like the quality of the sausage and the way eggs were made. Otherwise the breakfast offering is good and perhaps the housekeeper need more training.
We also didnt have toilet roll in our room and had to ask for it.
- Andile Luvuyo (8/5): -
- Gary (4/5): Below average - The accommodation was in a residential area and a taxi is required to get to any restaurants or bars.
We were moved without notice on arrival to another accommodation that appeared to be less satisfactory than the accommodation we had booked. No explanation was given. Building work was going on when we stayed and the pool was poor.
- Maloba (7/5): - Great location and pricing Rooms feel old and needing furniture upgrades.
- Reinard (9/5): Excellent Stay - It was clean and everything was close and convenient.
- Lucy (10/5): -

- Nomhle Ntomane (10/5): Remarkable one - we arrived very late but all arrangements were made, in the morning we had a hearty breakfast prepared by lovely ladies who made sure we enjoyed every minute of our stay there. The rooms were prepared cleaned and very comfortable beds. The area is very safe.
- mthembu (10/5): Overall, my stay was super good, stuff was best,kind n friendly, place is central to everything - Breakfast was super Nothing, like the place is top notch

- Booi (8/5): It was a nice stay and weekend to be at Kwantu, we really enjoyed ourselves. - The breakfast was delicious and satisfying. 1. If it's a couple or even 2 people in a room, there must be 2 big equal bath towels.
2. Dinner must be offered please if asked during the booking period and included
3. Kwantu must start Spa massage room
- Amanda (8/5): -
- Neli (7/5): -
- Babalwa (8/5): -
- Philile (10/5): Exceptional - Very accommodating Nothing
- Nandie (10/5): A warm home away from home - Early breakfast and flexibility on the menu. I am vegan and they went an extra mile to cater for me special. A home away from home. This is a place to be if you visit Cape Town. We will definitely come to Kwantu guest house again Nothing
- Yoliswa (5/5): My stay was disappointing due to lack of attention to detail and communication, ongoing renovations - Breakfast was fine The establishment' s communication needs to improve. On my first day I did not know where to go, there were renovations right at the Reception Area and there was no one mending the Reception Area. I had requested an earlier check-in as my flight was earlier than the usual check-in time, this was consented to. However, to my surprise, when I got there I was told all the rooms are not ready. After so much persistence on my end, they eventually let me utilise one of the rooms in order for me to change for my meeting.
When I got back to the room later in the afternoon, the room was full of flying insects. As I was about to go out in the evening I requested that they spray my room and leave an insecticide so that when I get back it would be better.
Upon my return, there was no insecticide, I could visibly see the small mosquitos when I switched on the light.
The following morning had an online meeting in my room, the place was so noisy with construction workers talking loudly, I had to keep apologizing in my meeting for the background noise.
When I eventually went down for breakfast, the waitress told me what I would have, without any options. I asked if I could have an alternative, she told me that is the set menu for that day. I was not even asked the previous night what I would like to have for breakfast.
- Thuli (8/5): We enjoyed our stay and the staff is very nice and friendly - It’s clean and the staff is very friendly The rooms are too closed together but good for a family trip rather than a couple.

- fabiopapaleo (10/5): A perfect stay with amazing service, comfort, and genuine hospitality. - I loved how welcoming and peaceful the place felt. The breakfast was delicious, fresh, and beautifully served. The location was great, close to everything but still quiet and relaxing. Honestly, there was nothing to complain about. Everything exceeded our expectations.

Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. They helped us a lot! We had a birthday child in our group so they helped organize flowers and a cake with balloons! Thanks to that we were able to surprise the birthday child during breakfast. Many thanks for that! Also thanks for the transfer to the restaurants. Anyway, a very nice experience and I definitely recommend it! See you next time! :-)

- Radebe (9/5): We had a pleasant stay at Kwantu guesthouse 1 - We really enjoyed the breakfast 😋
- Lindre (8/5): Very good - The location was good, I felt it wasn't far from attractions. Staff were very friendly and gave good advice. Cleaning staff didn't knock before entering.
- Bhattay (4/5): Disappointing - Added an additional night on booking.com
Company did not honour the booking. Had to wait over an hour for my refund.
Reception lady very un informed very unprofessional
- Laina (7/5): Good - The staff was very friendly, helpful and they served good breakfast on time The one thing I didn't like was that my booking was for Kwantu Guesthouse1, but I was booked in Kwantu Guesthouse2 which was not what I had opted for. I had booked the facility based on the pictures I saw only to be taken to a different place which didn't quite meet my expectations. The place is very far from where we boarded the My Citi bus, and each time we requested for a shuttle to take us to the nearest bus stop, we were told it was not available and yet it was part of the package, so we had to walk very long distances which made me not enjoy my holiday and I was very tired from the walking. The bed was very uncomfortable, both my partner and I had back aches every morning.
- Zitho (7/5): Good -
- Irwin (9/5): my stay at kwantu1 was awesome!!!!!!!!! - breakfast was great i had a English breakfast and it was just the way i love it. the breakfast area is so perfectly laid out and easy to go around and the staff was so so friendly and professional.......thank you kwantu1 i didnt like the short time i was staying there but i had to go. 2 days was to little. i could stay for weeks at kwantu1

- Edward (10/5): Safe, comfortable facility with outstanding hosts. - The staff is incredibly welcoming, friendly, and serving. They act as if it gives them great pleasure to serve their guests. The facilities are clean and well maintained, and the breakfast was superb. It does take some time in traffic if you are headed to Cape Town attractions during rush hour.
- Ricky (8/5): Superb - There was no breakfast attached to the booking. The location was cool Breakfast should be added to the daily charges
