Ashby Manor Guest House

Location, interior, personal. Just everything

-

Great location and decor was so cool and unique. I loved the ocean views from my room. The staff was so welcoming and helpful.

The ottoman by the bed was a bit grimey and could use a deep clean. The toilet brushes should be replaced too. I also didn’t like that I could hear the sounds of guests moving around their rooms through the walls.

De bedden en de mooie kamer in dit zeer mooie oide gebouw

Niets eigenlijk

Beautiful historic building, great location, and wonderful staff. Gorgeous view of the harbour. A very comfortable stay. The house is very nicely insulated, which means it is nice and warm in winter and quiet, so you don't hear the traffic from the busy street it is located on. We really enjoyed our stay.

Décor is a bit dated and mismatched. The house needs a little maintenance.

Great location , Friendly staff , beautiful rooms and loved the fact that it os pet friendly

Posizione vicina a sea point , camera non grande ma pulita, accogliente Co forte old e con ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Accoglienza sempre oltre le aspettative.

L’aerea di sera è abbastanza poco frequentata. Se si è viaggiatori singoli bisogna fare attenzione ma di giorno è bellissima.

Great location, lovely staff.

Honestly, always great. Not my first time.. plenty returns.

Everything was truly amazing — the location, the balcony, the view, the house itself… The property was in a secure area and close to restaurants and the beach. The staff were very attentive and supported us with everything we needed. I highly recommend it to everyone!

Ich liebe das Gefühl Nachhause zu kommen, welches ich hier jedes Mal verspüre.

Staff were super friendly and made checking in a pleasure. The room was well equipped and I had a great stay. Interior of the building and pool area very nice. I also felt quite safe.

Not necessarily something that I did not like, but the exterior of the building is going to need some TLC soon. The wood work needs upkeep and paint is starting to peel. Nothing major, but just a nudge so that it does not get out of hand.

Great location, excellent value for money, friendly staff, comfortable room

Location

Water pressure not keeping up with maintenance of air conditioning. Communication non existent

Bellissimo arredamento in struttura d'epoca con piacevole commistione di stili coloniali ed indigeno. Camera spaziosa e con letti comodi. Una chicca il bowindow

Bagno un po' angusto, colazione modesta.

The staff is very friendly,you feel welcomed and it’s like a home away from home.Ashby is very clean and safe,walking distance to the beach and shopping centres.

Nothing

checkin was quick. Wifi password readily available. A large lounge for our family get together was part of one of our rooms and Liesl arranged some crockery and glasses for us.

My self catering unit in the car park was poorly equipped if I really needed to self cater. All the cupboards and drawers were empty of utensils but there was a microwave, air fryer, kettle and nespresso machine. A security light shining outside in the carpark was intrusive. One of the rooms and the lounge needed many lightbulbs to be replaced to make them usable which the efficient staff did once we pointed it out. The shower in my wife's room never worked properly, either flow or temperature was erratic.

отличный тихий район небольших домиков, будто приехал в калифорнию)) В Кейптауне в любом случае все от всего далековато - надо ехдить на такси. Поэтому мы не пожалели что выбрали этот район и такой колоритнейший отельчик. В пешей доступности гуляли с детьми до супермаркета. На крыше отеля есть небольшая терраса - набирали вкусняшек вино и встречали закат Сам дом очень красивый - много деталей, декора, я счастлива что это не бездушый отель Персонал - сказка) такая заботливая женщина нас встречала и помогала во всем, комплиментарно хозяйка отеля накрывала завтраки!

Beautiful old house. Very friendly staff.

Everything was good.

Ich hatte ein Zimmer im Dachgeschoss. Es konnte zwar etwas warm werden, aber die Klimaanlage hat das gut ausgeglichen. Das Zimmer war schön eingerichtet, und alles hat einwandfrei funktioniert. Die Nächte waren sehr ruhig, sodass ich mich rundum wohlgefühlt habe. Der Ausblick ist fantastisch, besonders vom kleinen Balkon nebenan. Das gesamte Haus ist interessant gestaltet – fast wie eine Filmkulisse, mit vielen Bildern und einem schönen, alten Stil. Einige Bereiche sind zwar renovierungsbedürftig, aber genau das trägt zum besonderen Charme bei. Vielen Dank für alles.

Das Frühstück war gut, könnte aber etwas reichhaltiger sein. Das Internet war in Teilen etwas langsam, aber gut verfügbar.

Close to Seapoint attractions

Close to the road Lot of road noise during the night

Good location, comfortable and friendly staff

Toast to go with the eggs in the morning would have been appreciated but breakfast was good otherwise.

The staff were all lovely thank you to the lovely Liesl for arranging a cupcake & candle for my birthday during my stay.

Good location, nice people, clean house, good breakfast!

Ich mage die Ruhe und den Ausblick , trotz der für meine Belange optimalen Lage.

Я не советую данный отель ‼️Мы очень расстроены проживанием в этом отеле, так как у нас украли наши деньги и к сожалению поняли мы это не сразу, так как воровали очень ловко, улыбаясь нам, от чего еще более мерзко. Мы с мужем приехали в свое свадебное путешествие и выбрали данный отель для проживания в Кейптауне. Здание со своей историей, красивое, но на этом всё плюсы проживания заканчиваются. В наше проживание не был Включен завтрак, но по приезду нам сообщили, что завтрак все таки Включен для нас. Это важное уточнение в этой истории. Мы знали, что в Южной Африке воруют, но находясь в отпуске вероятно немного усыпили нашу бдительность, потому, что мы приехали отдыхать и расслабляться в нашей поездке. Теперь по порядку про кражу. - Мы сняли четкую сумму в банкомате 5000 ZAR для аренды авто, чтобы утром следующего дня пойти в офис аренды. Деньги мы не трогали, они лежали в кошельке, в сумке. При оплате аренды авто утром следующего дня, мы понимаем, что не хватает ровно 1000 ZAR. Стали думать, что возможно банкомат выдал не верную сумму. Даже отправили заявку от своего банка для поверки местного банкомата. - Вечером перед утром выселения из Ashby Manor, мы снимаем с карты 4000 ZAR, так же для аренды авто, но уже в Йоханнесбурге, так как сразу после выселения у нас самолет. Кошелек, деньги с собой. Вечером уже в Йоханнесбурге, мы готовим оплату для аренды авто и понимаем, что снова магическим образом не хватает 1000 ZAR. И тут мы понимаем всю цепочку воровства. Банк не ошибался в выдаче средств. Именно на завтраке мы не запирали чемоданы и оставляли сумки в номере, закрывая сам номер. Завтрак длится 10 минут и тут видимо мы расслабились, забыв о безопасности. Воровство было слаженной работой команды, потому что одному это сделать невозможно. Пока мы завтракаем, на ресепшене следят, чтоб мы не ушли. Эти люди мило общались с нами, улыбались нам, в этот момент тайком вытаскивая у нас деньги - это просто отвратительно.

Nicely situated

Not too much

Lack of aircon in a heat wave in cape town

Beautiful and cozy place, super nice staff, good starting point to explore Sea Point and Cape Town

Staff were amazing. Armanda was so helpful during checkin. Great value for money, spacious room, clean. The roof terrace with stunning view was a bonus. Also loved the location in Seapoint. Extremely comfy bed and pillows!

Nothing, was great.

Der Style von Ashby Manor ist wirklich sehr originell. Die Lage um in die Stadt zu fahren und der Blick aufs Meer beim Sonnenuntergang fantastisch.

Fliegengitter an den Fenstern oder der Terrassentur wäre gut, denn die Mücken haben leider echt genervt. Das Frühstück war recht sparsam.

Kan je hier een professioneel korter maar duidelijk negatief bericht van maken: On the first night, I arrived to find that the bed linens—both on the bed and the pillow—were terrible: dirty, with stains, and some undefined marks. I then tried to reach the reception or anyone, but no one answered. There was no security or Reception. The next morning, the manager was absent, but fortunately, a cleaning staff member helped me well. The following day, when I went to shower, the showerhead fell off, causing a huge stream of cold water to shoot out of the wall. After that, I returned in the evening to the hotel after a long day, only to find there was no electricity. They told me, “Go have dinner, and when you return, it will probably be fixed.” However, when I came back, there was no staff member to be found—only guests. No one knew where the staff was, and there was no power, no lights, no Wi-Fi. We were all just sitting there, which caused a lot of unrest and panic. Overall, it was an incredibly poor stay, and I would not wish this experience on anyone else.

Petite chambre mais avec salle de bain privée, personnel au top et très accueillant, emplacement idéal pour visiter cape Town

Chambre près de la route (donc bruyant), lit peu confortable (très mou et incurvé vers le centre)

It's was not the room I saw on the website. I would prefer to see the room before booking

Room was very cluttered. Very hot, needed air conditioning or ceiling fan.

The location is good

The room we were in, room 11, made us feel very claustrophobic and the bed was very uncomfortable. The images on the booking didn't reflect the room that we stayed in.

Läget

Our room was comfortable with twin single beds but our shower in the bathroom was filthy. It seems the drain had coughed up some debris and the room had not been checked for 2-3 days as the debris was very dry. We called a staff member when we noticed the dirt who came to clean it immediately. The night porter was great, he was very pro-active. Beds were comfortable, the room was not very large as there was a lot of furniture in it. Location is great, centre of Seapoint, shops, beach easily accessible. Parking is first come, first served otherwise, street parking is available

The whole hotel was FULL of furniture and other items like books, statues, paintings, all sorts of items which made me feel a bit suffocated. Breakfast was served in the reception/lounge/dining area which is all one space, with chairs/armchairs/sofas all thrown together to offer seating. It was not too comfortable having breakfast sitting on a sofa.

I love everything about the property and it’s dog friendly

The toilet had a slight problem

Les chambres à l’étage sont très agréables. Toutes les chambres sont trop chargées de meubles

Les chambres niveau rue. Pas de lumière naturelle

Goede bedden, privé parkeerplaats, aardig personeel.

I loved the sea view from my room, with the little balcony. I will stay here when ever I am in CT

Nothing

Everything was perfect They even packed my breakfast to take it away as I left early before breakfast. Very nice of them

This lovely boutique hotel offers a warm, comfortable atmosphere and is staffed by an excellent team.

Fair

Parking

Gute Kommunikation nach der Buchung. Abholservice vom Flughafen. Upgrade ins Zimmer im obersten Stockwerk unter dem Dach. Aircondition. TV. Sehr hilfsbereites und freundliches Personal. Kaffeemaschine und Wasserkocher im Zimmer. Dachterrasse neben dem Zimmer.

Ein Duschvorhang bei der Badewanne wäre hilfreich gewesen, aber ist wegen der Dachschrägung wahrscheinlich schwer zu montieren.

Comfortable place, very cozy. Easy check-in.

Room was not clean (bed & shower).

Idéalement situé à Sea Point. Accueil agréable

Choix au Petit déjeuner un peu pauvre. La rue est très passante. Pas de table pour se restaurer.

Breakfast was very Healthy especially the Banana loaf 🍞🤤🤤 .And the peace and. Quietness was wot i needed

Best place to stay in cape town

Struttura molto particolare, accogliente e di pregio

Camera leggermente piccola

L ambiance manoir de la propreté la vue depuis la terrasse Le confort et la propreté de la chambre

Le petit déjeuner très simple pas de pain Un peu excentré sur les hauteurs de la ville

Décoration artistique Balcon du petit déjeuner Quartier calme Personnel très sympathique

Uns hat nichts gefallen: das Haus insgesamt dunkel und sehr alt. Wir sind früher abgereist ( €105 verschenkt)

Erster Eindruck: ein „very spooky house“! Überall sind uralte Bücher, viel zu viele unnötige Möbel, viel zu viele Bilder an verschlissenen Wänden, uralte Sofas in jeder erdenklichen Ecke, sogar auf Frühstücks-Balkon, provisorische Treppen mit Sturzgefahr… etc.! Unser Zimmer vollgestellt mit uralten Sesseln und Kommoden, unsicher ob Bettbezug frisch war (?), mit ekelhaften Planen begrenzte „Terrasse“, hier alles mit Taubenkot überzogen, absolut dunkles Zimmer, provisorische Kabelverlegung, Dusche ok aber Wasser in WC lief ständig nach (man soll Wasser sparen!). Für Staub Allergiker eine Katastrophe!!!

All of the above. The room was spacious and clean, the location, even better i loved it.

Nothing i can complain about.

The staff , the location are great !

The water pressure in the shower is very weak ; the bath tub pressure is great though

Everything, great location,great staff,beautiful clean rooms, super comfy beds good linens.I love that each room is decorated completely different.Walking distance to Shops, Grocery store Restaurants & beautiful beaches. Yummy small breakfast also included. Look forward to staying again🙂

The staff were incredibly caring and welcoming and made our stay really relaxing. We felt very safe, it is a great neighborhood. Our room was beautiful, the atmosphere in the guest house made me feel right at home. There was even a delicious complimentary breakfast!

Nothing!

The bathtub and seaview

Studio spacieux bien équipé,

rien

De gastvrijheid en gezelligheid van de medewerkers. Schattige oude huis, met prima voorzieningen. Onverwachts een klein lekker ontbijt ieder dag. Uitzicht van kamer 8 (helemaal boven) was echt super!

Douche was meer druppel dan regen douche.

Location. Old world charm

Needs maintenance. Couldn’t open bathroom window. Steps too deep between the bedroom and bathroom, lamps too large for bedside tables. Coffee/tea centre too crammed, and stuck in a corner. A microwave placed in the passage for several rooms to share. Not really self catering.

Great location - Fresnaye is probably the safest neighbourhood in Cape Town, and it’s 10 min walk from the sea point, where all restaurants and bars are. The property its beautifully decorated, nice rooms, super friendly staff and great views form the rooftop terrace.

The water pressure in the shower was terrible, barely any water coming down.

We were welcome warmly by the receptionist. She organized transport for when we needed it. That helped us a lot. Thank you. The vanue is in a beautiful area, good value for money. We're allocated a room upstairs with great sea and sun sunset view. Room temperature warm, fan available if needed. It's a beautiful and homely accommodation.

The toilet basin water draining very slow. There was a lose heavy mirror on toilet cistern, fell on my sister nearly hurt her. Light breakfast was appreciated, however expected variety on different days.

Great staff in a quiet and safe neighborhood.

Nothing

Alles. Besonders das gratis Frühstück. Gratis Schwimmbad am Ozean für Ü60

Das sehr freundliche Personal, die Hilfsbereitschaft von allen Angestellten, die Sauberkeit und die Sicherheit
