Mooi centraal gelegen, goede uitvalsbasis, rustig, veilig en mooi. Mooie huisjes.
Sehr guter Gastgeber sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend die Mitarbeiter sind alle sehr fröhlich und guter Dinge Alles hat funktioniert!
Kein Mangel!
A very nice place with amazing staff who from their heart want you to feel welcome and have a nice time, the owner of the place is the same, exceptional good service and always a happy smile and hug if needed😊 The pool area is calm and nice, breakfast amazing, and the cottage we stayed in was really nice and calm.
Schon bei der Ankunft haben wir gespürt, dass dieser Ort etwas ganz Besonderes ist. Die Unterkunft ist mit unglaublich viel Liebe eingerichtet und vermittelt sofort ein Gefühl von Geborgenheit und Ruhe. Maggie und ihr wundervolles Team waren jederzeit für uns da, aufmerksam, herzlich und immer darum bemüht, dass es uns an nichts fehlt. Das morgendliche Frühstück war schlichtweg sensationell und ein täglicher Genuss. Immer wieder wurde liebevoll nachgefragt, ob alles in Ordnung ist – wir haben uns nicht wie Gäste, sondern wie zuhause gefühlt.
Dass man irgendwann wieder abreisen musste.
Alles tot in de puntjes verzorgd ! Fijn personeel ! Super relaxed ! Daar komen wij zeker terug !
Helemaal niets
Très bel emplacement . le lodge est très confortable et très bien décoré;
tout était très bien
Cecilia and Maggie were absolutely amazing with us. Many thanks for their attention to detail and their warm welcome 🤗
Service, netheid en mooie kamer
Die Suite war super geräumig, die Betten mega bequem und das Frühstück ein Traum – frisch und genau nach unseren Wünschen. Maggie und Cecilia sind zwei Herzensmenschen – so freundlich, herzlich und aufmerksam. Auch wenn wir sicher keine einfachen Gäste waren, hat alles perfekt geklappt. Vielen Dank für alles – besonders zum Geburtstag meines Mannes :). Wir kommen ganz sicher wieder!
Man hört die Straße auf der Terasse etwas. Uns hat es aber nicht wirklich gestört.
Did not take the Kronendal breakfast. We self catered and ate breakfast in the small Garden attached to our roo.m
The shower/wet room. It got the floor wet and slippery making it unpleasant for the next user.
Very nice breakfast, central location, friendly staff and owner. What else ?
Breakfast was available but our choice was to eat out ( and later ). Reception warm and all staff friendly and efficient .
Obviously not the responsibility of the GH but Valley Road is becoming busy at peak hours .
Large room , tasteful decor , quiet and relaxing , lovely staff. Lots of private out door space . Great location for exploring local Area , easy to drive to Cape Town and Cape point on day trips too. Didn't have time to try the pool.. maybe next time .
Was very happy with our stay , though would have liked fresh towels , as wet room meant everything got very wet .
We absolutely loved our stay! The staff was incredibly welcoming and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The place itself is a little paradise—beautiful, peaceful, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommended!
Kronendal Heritage if a fabulous guesthouse situated in a safe neighbourhood in Hout Bay. The rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean. The staff and owner, Maggie are very attentive and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. There is a very nice large saline pool that does not have any added chemicals. Excellent breakfasts. We have stayed here 4 times and the standard hasn’t dropped.
Nothing. It was perfect.
Great suite
Background noise of dogs barking Road noise
Good location, by car close to the beach of Hout Bay. Very friendly and nice host and staff. Suites are really big and bring a lot of comfort. Quite place to relax. Breakfast of good quality and quantity

Staff and space
Step between Bathroom and bedroom
Loved it! Staff and owner so helpful and kind. Arranged our room 3 hours early despite short changeover time. Really helpful with advice etc.
Nothing to not like
Location is great for Hout Bay. The room is a big size and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was good and the swimming pool was a very peaceful spot to relax.
Clear communication around check out times (especially on new years day) when late breakfast is offered, and about which items in the room are chargeable would have been very helpful, at check in, or when booking breakfast. We gave what we thought was constructive feedback about how to improve miscommunications about check out. Having submitted what we felt was a fair score I received a rude personal email accusing us of not paying for chargeable items (i assume water, which we assumed was provided) and being offensive. This seemed very unfair.
We loved the friendly, warm and welcoming staff team, the very comfortable beds and fantastic shower. We also loved the pool - great to have a proper pool you can swim laps in.
It’s worth investigating which room you are booking as they are all very different and due to ours being a very last minute booking we didn’t have the room we probably would have chosen. Very comfortable but dark with very little natural light - however it had a great roof terrace. Also some rooms have quite a few stairs to get to them which may not suit everyone so worth checking on this.
It’s our second time here. Fabulous place and Cecilia is so lovely
Nothing
The room was very spacious with an extra large bathroom. Beautiful surroundings. Staff were great.
None
Meggie was so kind and helpful throughout our stay, the guesthouse and our room, Moyo suite, and has all the necessary facilities and gives you that warm african vibe, we appreciate the gifts for our honeymoon a lot, couldn’t love it more! Definitely recommend.
Nothing
The estate is spacious and rooms are large,the property is well-taken care off. Cecilia is extremely nice and helpful, Maggie sees to her guests on a daily basis.
You can hear the celebratory noises from near-by township until well into the night. The property needs a few handrails to make the steps up to the pool safer for everyone, but especially the 65+ guests.
I experienced pure happiness and relaxation; Maggie, the exceptional hotel manager, leads a team of genuinely kind and caring staff, making everything perfect.
Everything is perfect , No way to find any mistake in this place
Beautiful grounds, comfortable and stylish accommodation, very private and quiet. The staff at the guest house are utterly fantastic, the breakfast was delicious and freshly prepared to our own request.
maggy always gave good recommendations, super breakfast from Cecilia, very nice employees, Wochenende felt very comfortable, we`ll be back
The heating system in winter
Exceptional and unique place. Hosts are very nice and make you feel comfortable. Property is well maintained, beautiful rooms, very clean.
Awesome rooms and setting and very friendly staff. Incredible gardens and pool.
great location, excellent facilities, spotlessly clean, good breakfast Highly recommend to everyone
Exceptional place - everything was absolutely spot on. Fab host Maggie & terrific staff Cecilia & Innocent. If you can get in then GO. Room & breakfast fantastic.
We had two weeks that we very much enjoyed in the Moyo Suite, and we will definitely come again. We know Haut Bay well having stayed with an old school friend annually for the past 20 years. We chose to cater our own breakfasts which we took in the suites small Garden area. Maggie and her team did everything they could to mitigate the load shedding issue providing standby lights. Wifi / Internet continued to work during load shedding- a bonus!! Air conditioning worked well. Outside seating area suited us well, others might find it too small. Pool area was great with plenty of seating in sun or shade.
We had King bed but initially only a single top sheet with double duvet. The single sheet was replaced by two singles and though better, was not a great solution. The setee in the sitting room was uncomfortable- a more comfortable altrnative would have been appreciated. The wet room was just that - wet - the shower needed some sort of enclosure to keep the toilet area dry.
A lovely welcome and huge room! A surprise treat at breakfast for our anniversary, thank you.
absolutely nothing, it was so nice.
Maggie and her staff were awesome. Innocent, Cecelia and the rest were so friendly and welcoming. They made us feel special. Maggie, the owner, runs an excellent establishment and its amazing how everyone genuinely smiles when they greet you. They clearly enjoy what they do.
We had a slight mishap when the gate closed while we were leaving the property and dented the car, but as soon as Maggie heard about it she has it checked out. She was very apologetic.
beautifully appointed and super lovely host.
it was a bit spendy considering the location, but worth it for all the extra touches
A fabulous boutique guest house in a lovely area in Hout Bay. Large suite was immaculate. Breakfast was lovely.
Owner and staff were polite and helpful and gave us good recommendations. We especially enjoyed the tranqulity of the room and the beautiful garden. Breakfast was great.
Absolutely nothing to complain about.
This guest house was immaculate and located in a stunning spot in the hills above Hout Bay. Maggie the owner went out of her way to make our stay perfect, always available at breakfast to help us with our activities for the day. She also introduced us to Pia here beautiful black German Shepherd. Cecilia and Lovinia provide the cleaning and breakfast service and are both wonderful and kind souls always interested in what we were up to and our plans for the day. These girls will make anyone feel part of the family and fed us well and kept our room immaculate, always going the extra mile with presentation of food and the room. We had a minor issue with a blind in the suite and Innocent the handyman came immediately to fix it he too is a star and deserves a big thank you, turning this experience into a positive. Our suite the Protea Suite was very comfortable with ample indoor living space and included a large patio area with views over the mountains surrounding Hout Bay. The guest house ground are also stunning and there is a nicely heated pool to the rear of the property if you want to cool down or have a swim. Finally it is worth mentioning the location. Hout Bay is just far enough outside of the city to be quiet and perfectly positioned for all of the main tourist attractions including these that we experienced: Hout Bay; hiking on Table mountain; Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens; Chapmans Peak drive and the peak itself; Boulders Beach; Cape of Good hope; Muizenberg & St James; Kalk Bay; V & A waterfront; Lions Head; and jonkershoek.
Maggie and her team make you feel like at home with a warm approach and attention to every detail. Excellent breakfasts, peaceful and secluded location, spacious and comfortable room creatively furnished. We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Cape Town!
Great place with friendly staff. Rooms are enormous. The area is set in rural Hout Bay.
Our stay at the Kronendal was amazing - the staff were incredibly friendly and nothing was ever too much bother. Breakfast was delicious and served on our own patio with a view of the mountain across the valley. Utterley faultless and highly recommended!
We received personalised service from super staff Cecelia and Jacob but appreciated the privacy we were given as well. The room was clean and homely. I prefer a separate bathroom especially so you don't disturb your partner. The bathroom should have its own light. My only issue with the booking was that you would forfeit your full amount if you cancel and I didn't see this condition as I am so used to booking on Hotels.com and most hotels have a 0 value cancellation up to 24 hours before the stay. As a business person this suits me better. I will be a little bit more alert when booking next time.
This is an unbelievable find in Hout Bay. It is beautiful, Maggie is THE best hostess EVER and she, Cecilia and Beauty could not be kinder or more accommodating. We LOVED every precious minute we had here and would go back in an instant. Everything was perfect. Thank you so much!!
Given that South Africa has a reputation for great scenery and great wine, as well as food and adventure, we wanted to make sure we had a location in the middle of it all. We also wanted to make sure we were safe and that things were quiet. All of these things were available when we stayed at Kronendal. I highly recommend it.
