Guest Reviews
- Ugonna (10/5): - What an unforgettable experience at 21 Nettleton! From the moment we were picked up at the airport to the very last day, the team made sure every detail of our stay was absolutely perfect. The only downside was that our trip was cut a day short due to a canceled flight—we truly didn’t want to leave! We stayed in the Penthouse Suite, and all we can say is wow, wow, wow—it was breathtakingly beautiful. The views, the design, and the comfort made it feel like a dream. A heartfelt thank you to the incredible team who made us feel completely at home: Teekay, Uti, Nathan, Godwin, Keenan, our wonderful driver whose name we can’t remember right now, and Slindo, who coordinated everything seamlessly through WhatsApp. You all went above and beyond to make our stay so special. We can’t wait to come back (this time for longer!) and will be telling all of our friends about the magic of 21 Nettleton.
- Abdullah (10/5): - A great experience. This is a house turned to Hotel. It was a unique experience and a quite pleasant one. The location and the views are incredible. The service was very customizable and personal. And the hotel it’s self is an art gallery. I recommend.
- Brett (10/5): - This was the final place we stayed on a month long trip starting in London through Spain and Tanzania. Cape Town and 21 Nettelton are amazing.
- Alexander (10/5): Ultimate Perfection - We stayed at 21 Nettleton at the start of our honeymoon and it was absolutely perfect. PERFECT! The hotel itself is a mansion on the hill top with only 6 rooms, so you get ultimate privacy, attention to detail and peace. The staff are all fantastic, on hand for any little thing you need and nothing is too much trouble for them. The pool is lovely, with a small jumping ledge, if you like that sort of thing (I do!). Breakfast is a feast and the sundowners canapes are a wonderful addition. We also opted to have dinner one night, which you can arrange in advance, and it was absolutely worth every penny - they will basically cook whatever you want and we asked for a dinner centred around grilled crayfish. It was amazing. I review almost all of my stays, because I find them useful. And I have never found a place that truly deserves a 10/10, but 21 Nettleton definitely does. We will be returning and recommending it to everyone!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Wonderful haven of peace, tranquility and excellent 6 star service. We will be back with certainty !!!
- James (10/5): Exclusive mountainside bolthole, flawless service - 21 Nettleton is one of the most amazing places we have stayed. The property is beautiful; set high up on the hillside of Lion's Head in Clifton with uninterrupted views of the ocean. The location is a great base for Cape Town sightseeing, if you can bring yourself to leave! We stayed in the King Room which was ornately decorated with gorgeous antiques and objets d'art collected by the owner. The room was very comfortable and we enjoyed having breakfast on the private balcony looking out over the ocean. Come late afternoon, we found ourselves ensconced in the living room so, although there are many good dining options nearby, we opted to have a night in with dinner cooked by the house chef - both breakfast and dinner were delicious. The service was impeccable. The staff valued our privacy and left us to our own devices but they were always available if we needed something (and reachable by sending a quick message through the iPad provided). The result was that we felt perfectly at home at 21 Nettleton. Adding to this was the fact there was only one other (seldom-seen) couple in residence. We felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. This hotel is excellent value and far exceeded our expectations (which were set high having read all the amazing reviews). We will most definitely stay again.
