Guest Reviews

• Alessia (9/5): -
• Jochen (10/5): Man fühlte sich nicht wie ein Gast - man fühlte sich wie Zuhause - Soul happiness - Es ist eine sehr schöne Unterkunft im Kolonialstil - es hat an nichts gefehlt! Hervorheben möchte ich den sehr freundlichen, professionellen und hilfsbereiten Service. Wunderschön auch der Garten mit den vielen schönen Sitzplätzen. Wir werden wieder kommen!
• Thomas (10/5): Werde immer wieder dort einkehren. - Frühstück ist immer super! Freundlichkeit des Personals ist herausragend. Der Aufenthalt ist wie nach Hause kommen. Das Ambiente ist ebenfalls außergewöhnlich und die Nähe zu den Highlights, der Innenstadt und zum Flughafen.
• Marie (10/5): Un bel endroit, décoré avec goût, avec un jardin si british, petit dejeuner gourmand et le tout managé par une equipe ch - Une belle atmosphère dans cette pension, tant par la beauté des lieux que la gentillesse de l’équipe qui nous a accueillis. De beaux souvenirs en famille, merci !
• DELIA (10/5): Everything was great, will be back and can recommend - Kyle and his staff are great hosts! N/A
• Preda Mihai Laurentiu (10/5): - Wonderful staff, starting with the lady fron breakfast until the two men - reception and gardener. Amazing stay, i higly recommend
• Stefan (10/5): -
• Busi (9/5): - Attentive staff and clean facilities. Lovely breakfast. Nothing.
• Carolina (7/5): -
• Adrian (10/5): Nice stay in quiet area - Very nice mansion in a safe area. Friendly staff help when they needed but also leave you youe privacy
• Sam (10/5): - Beautiful gardens, pretty, comfortable rooms, and friendly and informal (in the best way!) service in a very grand setting.
• Graham (7/5): Pleasant but not exceptional - Excellent breakfast, pleasant gardens. Some rooms better than others. Location in Mowbray isn’t great. The local restaurants and amenities are very poor. It is convenient for the airport. The rooms are a little tired, needing some updating to justify a 4 star rating.
• Anthony (9/5): Will recommend and stay there again. - Well maintained. Secure parking. Large room. King size bed
• Julie (9/5): - Hele lieve mensen, heel behulpzaam en een lekker ontbijt. Voor ons zoontje van 1,5 was alles aanwezig. Voor ons geen probleem maar de kamer en de badkamer waren wel iets verouderd
• Gaynor (8/5): -
• Graham (8/5): Great but poor location - Excellent breakfast Not a great location in terms of local restaurants. Very poor food at both we tried.
• Richard (10/5): - Absolutely fabulous place
• Signe (10/5): -
• Karl-Heinz (10/5): Ein geschmackvoll renoviertes Manorhaus mit sehr guter Anbindung an die City und waterfront Kapstad - Ein sehr gutes Frühstück von einem sehr aufmerksamen Personal angeboten, was will man mehr ? Ein Haus mit altem Charme im Garten gelegen und mit Sorgfalt und Geschmack renoviert. 7 Auto Minuten zur Waterfront und trotzdem ruhig gelegen. Ideal für den Touristen mit individuellem Geschmack.
• Clare (8/5): Would recommend Medindi Manor to other travellers. - The room was comfortable with a very nice cooked breakfast. The reception staff were very good. The house has beautiful gardens which are very peaceful and a joy to sit in. The breakfast room staff were not always around. On our first morning we had to ask another guest how things were done as there were no staff around.
• Thato (9/5): - Very nice vegetarian options and very accommodating about different needs (re when I wanted it and even one day allowing me to have it take away(.
• Zvonimir (10/5): OK - Clean, calm and well organized. Settings, architecture and good breakfast
• Stacey (8/5): Very good -
• Syandisa (5/5): Passable -
• Salmon (10/5): The staffs are excellent and super friendly. Shout out one of the staff Mr. George 👏👏👏👏👏 - The property is situated near the best restaurants and is very clean. Well, when I booked, I didn’t include breakfast, but the owner called me and told me that for the price I paid, they would cater for my breakfast. That was pretty awesome.
• Busi (10/5): Exceptional - Nothing
• Silke (10/5): - Sehr schönes, liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus mit nettem, zuvorkommendem Personal. Hervorragendes Frühstück, bei dem keine Wünsche offen bleiben. Der Garten und der Balkon laden zum Verweilen ein.
• Marloes (10/5): We booked a smaller room, but it had everything we needed. - Amazing garden and staff! The experience of staying in a Victorian home is outstanding. Safe area for solo travelers. Nothing.
• Maureen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Astrid (10/5): Medindi is a home away from home and will definitely see me returning time and again. - Medindi's location was perfect for us to get to the University, but because of its proximity to the highway, it was easy to get to the airport and to town. Perhaps the most outstanding feature are the staff - everybody was caring and helpful.
• Bruce (10/5): Exceptional -

• Gordon (8/5): Great spot for a short relaxing stay! - Medindi Manor is a characterful old house in the Rondesbosch area, with big spacious rooms with high ceilings. Very comfortable bed, very attentive staff. Great breakfast, and super service from the house team.
• Alfred (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lovleen (9/5): Superb -

• Alla (9/5): Superb - I absolutely loved the whole area. My little daughter had so many ch fun jumping in the garden. Every member of the stuff was incredibly friendly and the breakfast - very lekker
• Marika (8/5): Gorgeously comfortable - Spacious with Lovely decor and garden. Doors to outside room don’t lock easily
• Gabriela (8/5): Very good - Everything is beautiful and well kept and also the employees are doing a great job by making sure you feel good and have everything what you need. Beautiful breakfast. And service after checkout/ before check in time. What I didn’t like is that if you have a child, you’re not allowed to stay in the main building. They put you away from the main building, in the back zone. Rooms are nice, but they don’t compare with the beauty of the manor rooms wich actually I wanted to experience. All the room in the back, as mine, they don’t have any bathtub…wich actually was one of the reasons when I booked a superior room.
• Ronald (9/5): Very very nice - Breakfasts were magnificent
• Nina (10/5): Exceptional - Stunning property and fantastic team
• William (9/5): The staff were so helpful and attentive. -
• Matthew (7/5): A solid option for access to Newlands or quick access to the airport. - Easy access to motorway for early get away to airport. Very friendly staff who came in early to arrange our breakfast. Very big airy rooms. There didn’t seem to be anybody else here. The pool looked dirty but we didn’t use it. Not many dining options in immediate vicinity.

His staff was friendly and helpful at all times, well groomed for the hospitality services they were rendering to make me a family at home. 3. Security gave me peace of mind and this place was safe and secure. 4. Meals were good and met dietary requirements and were served promptly. 5. I give them 100% and will recommend them and definitely 👌 make it home coming to Cape Town on business in future. Nothing really, everything was exceptional well the staff was like interacting as one trained person in their hospitable interaction with us as guests and would share and recommend places of interests and experiences and how to get there easily.

Room and bathroom very spacious. Breakfast of quality standard, more than enough choice, including cooked. Spotlessly clean. Staff very friendly and extremely helpful. Wouldn't hesitate to book this place again.
