The most beautiful place I have ever traveled to and stayed at. MacDonald who worked at the residence was kind, soft spoken and informative I can not believe how beautiful 3 On Camps Bay was! I have traveled the world and have never come across a place like this. I traveled with my husband for his 50th Bday. Very easy to move around as a tourist.

Location with a view
Loved the location - few mins walk to the beach but set a street or two back. Lovely to walk through the streets and admire properties. Didn’t use the pool but loved the balconies around the property. Our room was huge and comfortable. Areas of the property looked a little tired - communal areas like the corridors and our bathroom which was a little Disappointing for what we paid. However, I would stay there again and recommend it. Free breakfast was great and service lovely.

Mixed experience
Decent enough guest house. My room was disappointing as it was right by the breakfast room and this disturbed from around 630am each day (I also didn’t get the sense that the place was full so was unclear why a better room wasn’t allocated). Finally, the booking conditions advertised on this website did not match up with those management tried to impose. Specifically, the hotels.com advert advertised a 50 percent charge for any changes made after a particular date and prior to check in. Despite this clearly advertise condition, the hotel have consistently tried to impose a full charge for a change made a week prior to check which is frankly disgraceful.

Marcell, the manager, was very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast staff were also great and all very nice. Breakfast itself was good, selection of continental options as well as a hot breakfast. The property is in a great location and the communal living areas very comfortable. Having stayed at the property now, I would perhaps have chosen a different room type however at £200 per night our room was already fairly pricey (room 6). The room needed updating slightly. Our room was big enough however being on the ground floor we had to keep our curtains shut a lot so that people sunbathing outside could not see in, so it was a little dark. Our stay was part of a trip for my partner’s 30th birthday so we were provided with a bottle of champagne upon our arrival which was lovely. However upon checking out, we discovered that we had been charged for this which we were a little surprised about (but paid anyway). Overall we had a nice stay and the location was great but perhaps the room could have been updated slightly and the “complimentary” bottle of champagne actually complimentary

Superb views over Camps Bay
We enjoyed 4 superb nights at this exquisite hotel. All the hotel staff were incredibly friendly and helpful; indeed nothing was too much trouble. Marcell was an outstanding host and we were made to feel very welcome throughout our stay. The rooms are delightful and very clean. The hotel has a couple of areas to relax, downstairs in the breakfast area and outside by the pool and the upstairs main room which has incredible sunset views looking down on Camps Bay. We enjoyed being away from the hustle and bustle of the main strip in Camps Bay and the short stroll up the hill back to the hotel was only 10 minutes. All in all a very well run establishment run by a dedicated and passionate team. Thank you...we will be back!

Wonderful hotel close to the beavh
We initially booked a room for 3 nights and ended up staying a week. We found it to be the perfect location. Close to the beach and restaurants and the hop on and hop off bus gave us many options for going places without a car. Hotel served a wonderful breakfast, had really great wi fi everywhere and awesome views of Table mountain and the beach. Perfect place to stay

Good setting
Great setting, good public areas, ten minute walk to beach and restaurants. Our room was comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed BUT it was tucked away with no sea views and in sharp contrast to all the images offered for this boutique hotel! Breakfasts, whilst complimentary, were disappointing in quality, portion size and heat. As a consequence, we had only three in our seven night stay.
