I first stayed at one belvedere in 2006 as a stop-over on my way to Australia and was completely won over by the warm and friendly reception I was given by hosts Rob and Charl. They strike just the right balance between being informal and amusing hosts without encroaching on guests personal space. Similarly the guest house is welcoming and... more

Have now stayed twice at One Belvedere, have recommended to friends and plan to visit again very soon. Rob and Charl are two friendly and welcoming owners - very willing to chat with you if you want, and have had pleasant evening glasses of wine on the terrace. Very caring when a chest infection brought down from London necessitated a... more

Each year I migrate to Cape Town to escape the worst of the British winter. Where do I stay? There is simply only one choice I would consider - Guest House One Belvedere. I discovered this wonderful little South African gem in 2006 when I was looking for a "Men Only" guest house. Since then I have stayed every year... more

I stayed for 2 nights and loved it. Great location at the top of town just under Table Mountain but an easy cab ride to the village and waterfront. The room was very nice and I loved the old shower. Rob and Charl are great hosts and nothing is too much trouble and they pointed me in the direction of... more

4th time I stay at One Belvedere Guesthouse in Cape Town. Have always been very charmed by the friendly and relaxed attitude of the owners, which makes you feel like 'coming home away from home' (even if this sounds like a cliche). Especially like their breakfast, which is served on the terrace, in the shade of some trees, with a... more

Wouldn't recommend this guesthouse. Roaches and ants a plenty! Owner not the friendliest either. There are many other gay guesthouses available in Cape Town. Look elsewhere! more

This was a very pleasant stay only marred by the possible issue that £200.00 of my travelling money was possibly taken from the in room safe soon after I arrived; I took £1000.00 and the money was in my inside pocket throughout the flight to Cape Town and it's hard to contemplate a pick pocket only taking some of the... more

Management response from
OneBelvedere, Owners

Guests told us what was written in a review about security in our guesthouse. All our rooms got digital safes in February 2005. He writes he stayed at our guesthouse in December 2005! Baytree123 never contacted us about that his money was stolen. Was it really stolen at our guesthouse? Why did he write a review 2 years after his...
