Amazing new hotel in Cape Town! Staff is extremely attentive and does everything possible to assure we have the best experience. Room is close to perfection, very clean, spacious, quiet and full of amenities. Breakfast is also great. It is located in a central area in Cape Town, just a short Uber ride to the main attractions.

We had a lovely room with a balcony which overlooked the lagoon and Knysna Head, the view was stunning. The hosts were very attentive and informative and even invited us to a small concert with food and drinks included. The breakfast was amazing with lots of choice and the chef managed to cook my scrambled egg to perfection, which is quite an achievement, we have stayed at many establishments over the course of our holiday, mostly five star, but only Candlewood and on other got the eggs right.

Super relaxing stay, totally recommend. It is not a hotel, but the staff really went the extra mile and it really felt like 5 stars hotel. The breakfast was amazing with plenty of options. I had the best massage of my life! Loved the concept of the honesty bar, you just take what you need and write it down. Nice and clean pool.

The breakfast for a 5 star bnb was a disaster. Little selection. We had to wait an hour for our cooked breakfast. Only one cook who could only slowly do 1 table a time.. toaster was terribly slow as well. They did not explain how long our breakfast would take to arrive. Only one waitress. Coffee was horrible, insipid . So much for 5 stars.

Generally this hotel is good but it has nothing to do within the 5 stars hotels category. Everything was okay but nothing shiny. A few restaurants and bars nearby (2 min walk).
