Sundown Manor Guest House

Service was fantastic and this is a well kept small hotel somewhat like a luxury BnB. The breakfast was delicious and well organized with a guest operated capuccino machine. I really liked the honor system to report consuming beer or wine they stocked for their guests. Location was excellent, close to the Mojo Market, Brians Pub, the walkway along the ocean and the hop on hop off bus stop. Seapoint is a safe area within Capetown so we had no worries walking back after dark. The total cost of our stay was extremely reasonable and we loved every minute of our time here.

This was the third time we have stayed here, the first being in 2012, and the standards have not slipped. Our room was clean, spacious, large comfy bed, kettle, fridge etc and free WiFi. The breakfast was served buffet style and delicious each morning.Gary was attentive and friendly each morning. There is on site parking. The guesthouse is just a short stroll to numerous bars, restaurants,shops and the sea front. Overall a great place to stay and would definitely stay again.

Repeat purchaser - I had to come back. The location is superb! Beautiful views of signal hill, which is just behind. And one can see paragliders flying off the hill too. And off-street parking is a rare luxury in the city. Pre-check-in communication is a nice touch. The entire place is pin neat. And my room was light & bright. The honesty bar is so endearing. I just love it. The owner wants you to feel comfortable, relaxed and at home. And he remembers all the guests' names and offers suggestions of sites & activities. That local knowledge that a visitor wants to get a real authentic experience. And only the best places Towels were white & fluffy. Aircon AND a fan. Best of both. There was more cupboard space than I have at home. 6 doors, at least with an archway in to the big bathroom with a large mirror and double sink. Which also gets a great amount of bright sunlight which is great for anyone doing makeup. Met the owner today, at breakfast. Great host. I noticed his interactions with each of his guests. It's like talking to an old friend. He is sincere and thoughtful. And has only the best tips & suggestions for a visitor. He is like a like a local experienced tour guide. And the breakfast selection has a wide variety of items. Something for everyone: proteins, muffins, pastries, cereals, breads, jams, big (huge) bowl of fruit, with a selection of yoghurts, different cheeses. It is a lot of choice! But it feels very homely. The staff is on-hand if you have a special request. Filtered coffee, different teas, fruit juices, espresso, cappuccino, americano. In summary, the breakfast covers all the hits, and it covers it well. The guesthouse is very quiet! I did not hear or see anyone else the entire time I was there. I like the entrance on the corner, it's the perfect 'bus stop' for an uber. Easy to find and easy to get dropped off right by your gate.

Although we only stayed 1 night, we think it was a very pleasant and nice guest house. The hosts were incredibly nice and we were very well received. The location is perfect, just close to the beach and with plenty of shops / restaurants around. The room was nice and spacious and we travelled with family who stayed longer and had kids so it's also very kids friendly. We liked the common areas and breakfast was good too.

Gary and his team work hard and deliver a very high standard at Sundown Manor Guesthouse. The bedrooms and bathrooms are tastefully decorated and comfortable. The lounge, breakfast terrace, pool and grounds make this a home from home. An ideal location for walking to the local shops / restaurants. Secure parking. A 10 minute drive to Cape Town’s Waterfront.
