Gute, ruhige, sichere Lage in Gardens, nur wenige Meter von der Kloof Street und einigen Restaurants entfernt. Die Zimmer befinden sich in einem alten und auch wunderschönem Haus, dementsprechend sind aber einige Einrichtungen schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen.

- Seum (9/5): Ein Hotel zum Wohlfühlen 🤩 - Das gesamte Personal ist sehr herzlich und kümmert sich sehr um die Gäste. Auch Sonderwünsche wurden direkt erfüllt. Die Aufenthaltsräume sind sehr gepflegt, geschmackvoll und gemütlich eingerichtet. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Im Zimmer fehlte ein großer Kleiderschrank, in dem man Kleider aufhängen kann. Die Beleuchtung war nicht so optimal und es fehlte z.B. ein Vergrößerungsspiegel im Bad. Die Betten sind ziemlich hart.
- Iris (10/5): Wir waren bereits das zweite Mal im Welgelegen House und kommen gerne wieder. Wie gerne Heimkommen - Super freundliches Personal, das dir jeden Wunsch von den Augen abliest. Leckeres Frühstück, netter kleiner Innenhof. Jeden Mittag steht ein frischer Kuchen auf dem Buffett. Es gibt nichts zu beanstanden.
- Lesley (9/5): Enjoyable stay in a convenient location. - Nice, comfortable guesthouse in a very convenient location. Nothing
- Tom (10/5): - Great location with Table Mountain View’s. Lovely staff, who were very helpful. Memory was very kind in organising a tour with Jomar who was excellent. Many thanks
- Lucien (9/5): Cozy central family style - Great staff. Very nice and cozy room All good
- Grega (10/5): -
- Angelika (10/5): Close to Kloof Street. We could walk there at night without problems. Parking place in front of it - Beautiful small hotel

Behulpzaam met aanbevelingen restaurants en te bezoeken highlights. niets
- Delphine (9/5): - Het personeel De weinig tot niet-geïsoleerde kamers
- Shan (10/5): Heavenly break, close to attractions and family - Home away from home and the staff are absolutely amazing. Not a thing was wrong
- Joan (10/5): - The breakfast was a real treat! The staff greeted us every morning with a warm welcome. They served eggs, bacon, mixed fruits, pastries, fresh squeezed orange juice, French pressed coffee and always with a beautiful smile from each of the servers.
The build is stunning with antiques, stainglass, and an assortment of fine art.
I would absolutely recommend the Welgelegen House and I will definitely stay here next time I’m in Cape Town. I liked everything
- Keith (10/5): Comfortable accommodation in an excellent location - There was nothing not to like. Very quite location, close to restaurants and Table Mountain. The guest house staff welcoming and attentive. The accommodation clean and very comfortable and the breakfast choice and quality, excellent. Nothing
- Rachel (10/5): -
- Aisha (10/5): Fabulous - Great, safe, location in a quiet suburb next to Kloof street. Big room, clean and comfortable. The staff were second to none. Memory, Prince and all the staff in the kitchen made our stay perfect. Like a home away from home. Could do enough for us and really went above and beyond. Do not hesitate to book yourself here, we will definitely be back! Nothing!
- Ekaterina (10/5): -
- Sina (10/5): -
- Ashley (10/5): - The service was amazing. Felt taken care!
- Oran (9/5): - Lovely welcoming staff and very nice old Victorian house with high ceilings
- Matilda (10/5): -
- Jackie (10/5): Truly fabulous and memorable stay. - This is a truly fabulous guesthouse. It's in a wonderful location with plenty of places to eat within walking distance. Our room was really comfortable and had great views of Table Mountain. All the staff were incredibly friendly and a special shout out goes to Memory for her helpful suggestions of places to visit and her kindness throughout our stay. Breakfasts were very good with a lovely buffet and a wide choice of cooked food. If visiting we'd also thoroughly recommend a visit to the township which Memory organised for us. We loved everything and wouldn't hesitate to return.
- Christelle Julie (8/5): Ideal für einen kürzeren oder längeren Aufenthalt in Kapstadt - Sehr schönes kleines Hotel an ruhiger Lage in gehobenem und sicheren Quartier. Die Zimmer sind hübsch und liebevoll eingerichtet sowie auch der Balkon und Aussenbereich. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.
- Anja (10/5): - We enjoyed the outstanding and warm hearted guest service (special thanks to Memory) and the cosy room and love the location and style of the property. Thank you again - it was really nice to be back in Welgelegen and to be received like friends!
- Daisy (10/5): Perfect spot for Kloof St - would stay again. - Great location, friendly staff, nice rooms.
- Sebastian (10/5): - Tolle Lage. Stilvoll eingerichtet.
- Urs (10/5): Best guesthouse we stayed at in Cape Town - Very friendly and helpful hosts and staff. Super quiet yet central location. The furnishings and decor are very tasteful. The breakfast is excellent and prepared with great care. Services such as laundry are fast and of impeccable quality.
- Jo (9/5): Charming, welcoming Guest House with superb team - We were delighted with the warm welcome we received from Prince and all the team at Welgelegen House. We only stayed 2 nights but it felt like home. Everyone was so helpful and we received excellent suggestions re restaurants and activities. We will definitely book again when we are next in Cape Town.
- Alexandra (10/5): Umwerfend herzlich! - Ein wunderschönes Erlebnis! Memory ist eine wunderbare Gastgeberin ! Einfach fantastisch!
- Peter (10/5): Top verblijf in Kaapstad - Zeer charmant huis en vriendelijke ontvangst
- Jon (10/5): Thank you to the staff - The staff was excellent, friendly and very helpful with advice on restaurants , must see places.
I had an accident when doing a hike and called them to get a taxi to pick me up and to get an immediate doctor’s appointment. They, Prince and Memory, took care of everything. I was able to get surgery the following day and with that I was able to continue my vacations. Absolutely nothing.
- Stefan (10/5): Perfektes Hotel für einen Kurzurlaub in Kapstadt - Zentrale aber ruhige Lage in Kapstadt. Idealer Ausgangspunkt, um die Stadt zu erkunden, zu Fuß und per Uber.
Außergewöhnlich freundliches Personal, man fühlt sich sofort zu Hause. Tipp: Township Tour über das Hotel buchen, ein unvergessliches Erlebnis!
- Rob (9/5): - Personeel vriendelijk
- Bertrand (10/5): J’ai hâte d’y retourner !! - Tout !!! Rien!!!
- Angela (4/5): - the location is good. We were not happy. about room no 1: no warm water for the shower, even if you leave it 10 min running, And the flush of the toilet is also not able to flush something properly down, not even after 5 timesy trying.
- sarah (10/5): - We had a lovely 3 days at Welgelegen house which is perfectly situated below Table Mountain in a pretty quiet residential area . A small, intimate hotel with a very personal vibe .
Lovely decor throughout the hotel . Our room was spacious and comfy with a big outdoor balcony .
Delicious breakfast .
Wonderful staff with a special mention to Memory, Superman and Rita who all looked after us do well .We also had a tour for a day and our driver, tour guide Buja was the kindest , coolest and most knowledgeable guide ever . All in all a fantastic “small” hotel a few steps from Kloof street for restaurants and bars .Highly recommended and we would definitely come back next time !! Could have fluffy towels in the bathroom instead of waffle towels if I’m being picky
- Charles St. (9/5): Nice boutique hotel with very friendly staff -
- Dr.Judith (10/5): Perfekte Lage, tolles Ambiente und Service - Stylischer Frühstücksraum, modern und Historie mit Gefühl kombiniert. Mein Favorit: leckeres, selbstgemachtes Müsli…der Obstsalat dazu unübertroffen. Perfekter Service, immer mit einem Lächeln. Man kann sich nur wohlfühlen!
- Hans (9/5): Goede stop in de stad om Capetown te verkennen. - Goede ligging en oase van rust in drukke stad. Geen negatieve dingen
- Annemieke (9/5): -
- Mathias (9/5): -
- Michael (10/5): Delicious breakfast !!! - I loved the staff - super cheerful and friendly Room 14 is next to the back gate and can get noisy when other guest come and go .
- Yvonne (10/5): Alles perfekte ☀️ - Super freundliches Personal - man fühlt sich wie zu Hause 👍
- Rhys (10/5): Would highly recommend - This was a beautiful period property located just off of Kloof Street. We were located on the ground floor just next to the main entrance. The room was spacious, clean and tidy. Even with the wooden floors and position next to the main entrance noise was not an issue. The location was in a cul-de-sac road so no noise issues and no safety issues.
The staff were fantastically welcoming and we appreciated the added touches like the decanter of port in the room and afternoon cake. Could do with a small menu at breakfast.
- Mirja (10/5): - Sehr schöne Unterkunft mit tollem Personal, wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt.
- Denise (8/5): -
- gina (10/5): -
- Wayne (10/5): A delightful gem in the heart of CT; the staff were incredible & so were breakfasts & afternoon teas - Breakfasts were a good start to the day; delicious and wholesome items provided. Perfect location being a short walk into upper Kloof Street with easy vehicle access into and out of CT CBD. Small number of guests accommodated at any given time which made it feel very homely and intimate a space where guests are given friendly efficient service. On weekends distant noise could be heard from the restaurants along Kloof Street; a trade-off we were willing to accept given the convenient proximity to some amazing fine dining experiences and a bit of CT nightlife. Some guests were not thoughtful when re-entering the complex late at night; being heavy footed on the clunky wooden floors and heavy handed with doors and access gates that were fairly close to our rooms. Choose a room some distance from the rear access gate and you'll be absolutely fine!
- Alan J. (9/5): Warm, personalized and inviting lodging in Cape Town. - Very attentive and helpful staff. We had a nice conversation with Memory and Prince, the welcome staff and managers of the property, as well as Thomson, the night manager. They were eager to share their knowledge and enthusiasm for South Africa, Cape Town and Welgelegen House. Everything was excellent. The towels perhaps could haver been a tad softer. And the name is hard to pronounce!
- Werner (10/5): - Sehr schönes kleines Hotel mit toller Lage. Das Personal war einfach nur bezaubernd. Ganz besonders Memory die Hotelmanagerin, sie war großartig. Wir werden ganz bestimmt wieder kommen. TV
- Christiane (9/5): schönes Haus mit netter Ausstattung, hervorragende Unterstützung bei Tourismus Fragen - Die Lage ist gut, Restaurants sind gut zu Fuß erreichbar, Interessantes Haus mit schöner Ausstattung.
Frühstück reichhaltig.
Angebote für private Touren oder Tips werden vom netten Team gegeben. bei starkem Gast Aufgebot zum Frühstück kann es zu Wartezeiten oder Engpässen kommen.
Das Zimmer war toll aber unser Badfenster liess sich nicht schließen.
- Cathleen (10/5): I want to go back! - The quiet location at the base of Table Mountain and proximity to wonderful restaurants was fantastic. The staff was beyond hospitable - most notably Memory (concierge and day manager) and Sidney (night manager) - but all were so friendly and helpful. The inn is decorated so beautifully, the breakfasts were perfection and all was perfect.
- francesco (9/5): - Welgelegen House is situated in the charming Oranjezicht neighborhood, a peaceful escape with stunning views of Table Mountain and Lion’s Head. The location is perfect.
We were warmly welcomed by the incredible staff. Special thanks to Thomnson and Prince who helped us to make our stay comfortable and memorable.
- Meredith (10/5): -
- Matteo (10/5): - We loved our stay at Welgelegen House. The staff is very helpful and kind, from Memory to the kitchen staff. The house itself is well maintained and it has a great style. The location is also very good, overall is quiet and safe (at least compared to the rest of Cape Town). Breakfast buffet can be refilled more often, but the food is great!
- Michael (7/5): We enjoyed the stay. - It is clean & continent location. We were told Additional charges of $22.22 when we boarded the taxi. We had to come out of the car to pay. It could have been settled earlier.
- Tracey (10/5): Sheer luxury - We went in 2006 and returned it’s was even lovelier and staff superb 5 ⭐️ Unique
- Karen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gillian (10/5): We would definitely return as we really enjoyed our stay. - Staff were so friendly and helpful
Amazing chef
Decor was lovely. Nothing
- Tine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Liz (10/5): Fabulous stay! - Everything was great! So friendly, beautiful decor, lovely atmosphere and great location. Highly recommend! Nothing.
- David (10/5): We had a lovely week in the Welgelegen. Our hosts were outstanding and nothing was too much effort. - Te hospitality was outstanding. Prince and Memory were lively hosts and we almost felt part of a family by the time we left. They were so helpful and friendly.
Breakfast was good - perhaps things, especially place settings and the coffee machine, could have done with being reset/serviced more often, but the food was good - in particular the hot food cooked to order. See comments re breakfast.
- Rupert (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lauren (10/5): Exceptional - We only had one night here but wished we had more. Beautiful house and amazing hosts. The breakfast was yummy!!
- Charlotte (9/5): Superb -
- Sally (10/5): Absolutely exceptional - From the moment we arrived we were told “welcome home” and every staff member was exceptional and couldn’t do enough to help. We were even upgraded to a larger room for two nights of our stay.
The area was quiet and safe and we could easily get by car or uber to other parts of Cape Town. Amazing stay.
- Lyman (10/5): Our stay was fantastic and we loved it😎 - Everyone was so nice Prince memory auntie everybody treated us so special and we really enjoyed it and would highly recommend to anybody😎

- Susan (10/5): Home from home - From start to finish we were made to feel so welcome. Memory and all the staff were super helpful and kind. Excellent breakfast and a beautiful room. We shall be back, loved every minute.
- Felicia (9/5): Home from home in beautiful Cape Town - Beautiful property with a warm welcome and great views of Table Mountain and easy access to all that this lovely city has to offer
- Henry (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful staff, so warm and friendly. Beautiful accommodation and great location. Nothing springs to mind. Brilliant place to stay 😊!
- Cayla (9/5): Superb - Perfect location, a close walk to Kloof street but tucked away so you did not hear all the noise / commotion. We only stayed one night which was too short. Breakfast was nice and the house is a beautifully renovated piece of history. For being a historic hotel, we were really surprised how quiet our room was. Memory (the host / manager) was amazing - funny, friendly and makes you want to come back. Give that girl a raise. Wish we had another night there
- Alison (10/5): Excellent and I hope we return one day! Thank you all! - Lovely old character property. Full of charm. Extremely clean and well cared for.
The staff are amazing. Many thanks to Memory and to Prince for their help and advice on where and what to see and do. Nothing
- Nicole (10/5): Exceptional - The service and the breakfast was oustanding ! Prince was giving us so many worthful hints and he planned together with us our day so that we can make the most of our short stay.
Especially when you have never been in Cape Town before, I really recommend to stay here as you feel safe and in good hands.
We will come back! Nothing
- Johan (5/5): Passable - Location was good and building was attractive Room Finishes looked ‘tired’, in need of a re-paint. Lighting very bad (cold white lighting), shower door not closing, bathroom door knob broken, balcony immediately adjacent to a school playground,
- Fionnuala (10/5): Lovely staff, delicious breakfast, warm welcome and beautiful decor. - The furnishings and cleanliness.
- Steve (10/5): Thanks to all the staff at Welgelegen - Very helpful staff
