I don't usually stay in boutique hotels when travelling on business, but on this occasion I am so glad that I did. Quite simply this is an absolute gem of a hotel in a great location in the CT suburbs. Only a small number of rooms, but they get everything right - attention to detail, comfort, friendliness, exceptional food. The stand out for me was the the staff, always with a smile on their faces, without exception. I will be back, no hesitation!

The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was very comfortable and the hotel and grounds are beautiful. The pool is lovely but heated. It was too hot to be refreshing. A great place to stay

My husband & I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful hotel for three nights in October. It was one of our favourite places and we couldn't fault it. From the moment we arrived until the time of our departure, every member of staff we encountered went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful stay. Our room was called Pinotage, not one of the largest rooms, but it was beautifully appointed, immaculate and very comfortable. We dined in the Palm Terrace restaurant on two evenings and found the food to be of a very high standard and very reasonably priced. When we initially booked our stay at the hotel we had also booked our meals and this included the hotels Tuesday curry night...unbeknownst to us, between booking and our arrival, the seasonal menu had changed and the curry night was no longer on the menu. Realising we had been looking forward to the curry night during our conversations with him, Maitre d, Dane, along with the Executive Chef, arranged to reinstate this delicious curry menu just for us. We were made to feel very valued and it was a fantastic meal and a lovely gesture. We very much enjoyed drinking cocktails and G&T's in the small but perfect bar and loved the ambience of the hotel and it's beautiful surroundings. We found all the staff extremely polite, helpful and enjoyed chatting with them, especially Dane, Tabiso, Richard, Chelsea, Dean and Quinton...plus the security guards and reception staff, everyone was lovely. Palm House Boutique Hotel was our first experience of Cape Town and it was certainly one we will never forget and we would not hesitate to stay there again. Thank you to everyone.

We are annual visitors to Cape Town. We have eaten multiple times at La Colombe to Fyn, Salsify and more. Last night was our first evening on this visit. We had the most exquisite, beautifully described and mind shattering meal in De Tafel. This is a food and wine lovers heaven. The surroundings and decor, the menu design and quality of service expressed everything we could have wished for. Whilst we are not vegans our curiosity took the best of us and we had to go with the plant based journey tasting menu and wine pairing.There was too much information for us to remember about each wine but the information and wisdom was all welcome. Our tastes were challenged and I had to dig down deep to connect with the soil. Yes that is how it made me feel ! Chef Greg Henderson is a genius! This restaurant is for people who love and appreciate the thought and the highest levels of culinary skills. Thank you to the entire team at De Tafel for your imagination, passion and commitment

What a place to finish our Garden Route trip!! Situated in a nice suburb of Cape Town, Palm House is an "oasis of calm', charm and attention to detail. Owner Max clearly has a great vision. A short taxi ride from the V & A Waterfront in Cape Town, but much better, in our opinion, than staying in the busier city areas. We had cooked to order breakfasts and ate in both restaurants; the food was outstanding. The tasting menu in de Tafel was spectacular; if Michelin covered South Africa, this restaurant and chef Greg Henderson would have a star! It was tough to leave to come back to the UK. Special thanks to sommelier Richard and restaurant staff Charles, Emmanuel and Dane for looking after us so well.
