Sweet, homey and super friendly. Very good location
Just a few small fixes in the room would have made it feel a bit more fresh (like the window seals, the old decorations)

Sylvie and Tom were truly exceptional hosts. They were friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. They were readily available to answer any questions, provide recommendations, and offer assistance whenever needed. Their genuine care for their guests made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.
The rooms were clean and spacious, offering a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. The attention to detail in the room decor was evident, creating an ambiance that was both stylish and comfortable. The excellent shower—hot water, great water pressure were refreshing after a day of exploring the city.
The breakfast was a delight. The pancakes were a particular favorite. It was the perfect way to start the day before venturing out to explore Cape Town.
Parking was available in the street near the guesthouse, and we had no trouble finding a spot during our stay. The neighborhood felt safe and secure, with its proximity to bars and restaurants adding to the convenience and enjoyment of our visit. We felt comfortable walking around, both during the day and in the evening.
One tip we received from Sylvie was to use Uber in Cape Town. This turned out to be a fantastic recommendation, as it made getting around the city hassle-free and convenient. It saved us time and ensured that we could explore the various attractions without worrying about transportation logistics.
We highly recommend Number 5 Guesthouse to anyone visiting Cape Town and looking for a wonderful place to stay.

We spent our first days in South Africa at Number5 Guesthouse and we really enjoyed our stay - so we came back for the last few days at the end of our trip. First of all Sylvie and the rest of the team do a really good job. Thanks again for having us! Our Room was very clean and comfy, breakfast was tasty, central location and quiet area at the same time.

The staff were wonderful and super helpful with recommendations. Breakfast was great and there was a good variety, comfy room and nice communal areas for relaxing
The only downside was the window for our room was facing a road which wasn’t too busy but it was a little noisy when vehicles went past at speed

The breakfast is amazing! freshly made fruit salads with berries and kiwi fruit and mango, as well as espresso coffee, pancakes, eggs if you like, and yoghurt. The staff are friendly and helpful and the location is excellent - right below Table Mountain and close to great restaurants, bars and cafes.
The only thing is the creaky floor in my room, which doesn’t help if you’re wanting discreet intercourse (only kidding), but seriously it’s all part of the character of the building.

Sylvie, the manager was extremely friendly and speaks French so we had a really nice chat. She prepared a special breakfast for me as there were no other guests that morning.
My son joined me in the morning and she very kindly offered him a coffee and we carried on with our chat.
Next time I will ask for a room on the other side. I forgot how windy Cape Town can be and it was blowing straight into my window. Take earplugs just in case!

Great location on a quiet street; friendly staff; comfortable bed; and a great breakfast.
7.0
The location is great and is walking distance to quite a few restaurants and a grocery store. The rooms are a little small but cozy and clean. The host offered an extended check-out which was greatly appreciated.
The breakfast was a bit inconsistent, we were there for three days. Day one was below expectations, day two was exceptional and day three was good. I assume the owner was dealing with staffing issues or was cost cutting as it was probably us and another room that was occupied on day one.

The staff were so friendly and willing to give advice. The location was brilliant for all the local restaurants and shops. Breakfast was brilliant. Cannot say enough good things!
Nothing - we had a lovely time. Nothing could be improved.

It was our second stay and we will come back! Nice atmosphere, delicious breakfast (fresh croissants, fresh fruit salad, cheese, cold meat etc.). The rooms are a little small but cosy and clean. The owner and her team are very helpful and make you feel as though you were staying with friends.

Marie was fantastic. Great checking in process and in touch via Whatsapp to help. They had great bar/restaurant advice, in particular in the local area which is really cool with funky coffee bars / tapas places with local young professionals. Very cool area.
