Die Lage ist perfekt, ganz oben mit super Blick, wenn es allerdings sehr windig ist ist die Terrasse nicht brauchbar.
Es ist alles sehr in die Jahre gekommen, man zahlt 80% für die Lage und den Blick, das Haus selbst hat eigentlich keine 5 Sterne mehr verdient, die Zimmer sind wirklich sehr sehr klein.

Perfect
Space was small for other amenities like small kettle for tea, the nespresso machine was not enough...we kept on asking for a pot of warm water
4.5 / 5.0
The views, the room, the food even though they serve very small potions. The staff was extremely attentive and excellent
I have requested a special treat (slice of cake,champagne..etc) days before check-in and a night before my birthday but nothing was provided on the day.

The location, restaurant and especially the service is beyond words! everyone gives its best to make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible… we had a blast and can recommend it to anyone that loves good food, great wine, spectacular views and a very comfortable room. We will definitely come back!
there is absolutely nothing we can think of that needs improvement

an exceptional spot with an exceptional view of a beautiful piece of South Africa
3.0 / 5.0
The view is of course absolutely beautiful (it's the heads!) The staff were really lovely and welcoming when we were there. Breakfast was also delicious.
The room is really, really tiny for the amount that you pay to stay there for a night. The facilities were fair but not what you would expect. You're really just paying for the view.
