Loved our stay as part of our honeymoon! The staff is excellent and feels like the comfort of an old friends home. We stayed in the 12 A room and could see sunset and ocean from our room! Breakfast was delicious especially the homemade pastries. Loved the neighborhood and parking!

Friendly staff, good breakfast, and location
Incredibly friendly staff, spacious rooms and great location within camps bay. I was quite sick during my two night stay and the staff did everything to help and make sure I was looked after. The room itself is very clean and large. The location is a short 5 min drive to the main strip of camps bay. The breakfast was generous with fresh local ingredients. Would happily recommend this hotel for a nice stay in camps bay.

Wonderful and highly recommended!
Highly recommend this lovely and chic hotel to anyone going to Cape Town! The aesthetic is clean and modern with vibrant colors but it still manages to feel warm and welcoming. The owners and staff were so lovely and made the most beautiful breakfast: fresh fruit and cheese platter, homemade banana nut muffin, yogurt, and a latte!

Jo greeted us like we were long Lindt friends & showed us to our stunning room. The views of the sea & the mountain were so good that just soaking them in was out favourite part of the day. The rooms had a beautiful Scandinavian style and expertly decorated. The beach was a short walk away. It was worth staying here for the breakfast alone. The variety and attention to detail was impressive. I am gluten free and was spoilt for choice. The highlight of breakfast is the freshly home baked pastries/muffins every morning. We visited the One&Only during our stay & my husband said he preferred Sovn, for the privacy, views, location & personal touch. Jo could easily co-ordinate everything a travel guide could, taking into account the weather & personal preferences. She lived onsite & was literally contactable 24/7, which made us feel very safe. We didn’t get to use the swimming pool but it looked very inviting & so did the outside terrace.

Great hospitality from hosts, Jo, Tom And Masi with excellent breakfasts in a boutique hotel located conveniently overlooking Camps Bay. The whole place was very clean, and had a lovely pool situated in some lovely gardens. A must stay for a visit to the Cape Town area.

Great little boutique hotel attentive staff
Great location in Camps Bay. This is a contemporary, clean, small hotel with a nice indoor-outdoor breakfast area. We were in the smallest - cheapest room because we booked very late. The room was perfect and room with its own private patio. This was great value for money. Breakfast was perfect and the service was faultless. The staff packed us a breakfast to go on our final morning as we needed to catch a very early flight. We didn't request this and it was a great unanticipated personal touch as we were checking out. The pool area is spacious and private with plenty of lounges - in the sun or under umbrellas. This was a perfect small boutique hotel for what we wanted and the staff could not have been more helpful.
