The owners/managers went above and beyond to help me with both my late arrival and my trip onward. My phone was having a charging issue and the detailed map that was drawn for me was perfect - it got me right to some wonderful sightseeing in Cape Agulhas and ultimately to Betty’s Bay. I certainly would have missed some beautiful areas had I not had their help!

just a average, or slightly below, guest house
we didn’t realize when booking that they basically require you to check in by 1830. We got there by 2000 and had called...but they made us feel less than welcome and that we had interfered with their dinner plans. We were told we were lucky they stayed and we didn’t have to sleep out on the street.
Once in the room, there was no window to open for fresh air - it was sealed shut and no screen anyway. Couldn’t leave door open because of mosquitoes.
Towels and very old, stained from bleach, and need replacing. Toilet seat and cover worn out and needs replacing.
Internet mostly doesn’t work in room.
Also told that breakfast is only 0800-0900. This was okay, but a surprise. We would have done earlier. It was okay but not much more than just average. Coffee is only filtered coffee.
This could be a nice place, but it needs investment.
The owners have a mission statement 5 of service principles and the statement describes how the owners exist for the customers but this is not the service provided ; if they were taken to heart this would be much better.

Garden Route stop over.
Great place for a 1 night stopover along the Garden Route. Due to torrential rain we had no chance to explore. Owners very helpful giving us alternative route back to Cape Town.

Die Besitzer waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Sehr idyllisches Plätzchen. Die Zimmer sowie Außenanlage sind schon in die Jahre gekommen. Es müsste mal einiges ausgebessert werden.

Grei beliggenhet
Gjestehuset ligger i Swellendam. En mindre landsby nær Gardenroute ca 1 times kjøring fra kysten.
Rolig landsby og ikke mer enn et stopp for overnatting.

Comfortable hotel in Swellendam
Hotel is comfortable, the houses are big: rooms and bathroom are spacious. If you want to stay in a quiet house, ask for a house up om the hill next to the pool/ reception building. The ones down can be a bit noisy due to the road that's very close. The breakfast is big and very tasty. The owners do their very best to make you feel at home.

Truly great Guesthouse with super kindly hosts
The hosts give us a warm welcome and give us very good tips for the dinner and also for our next destinations. We followed the tips and was very thankful for it.
The room was comfortable and clean and the hotel is located right on the mainstreet.
Really perfect.
Swellendam offers very cool activities. You can stay there for some nights and plan yout daily trips from the guest house.
Thank you Michael and Beate

Liebevoller Empfang eines sehr sympathischen Ehepaars. Tolles Zimmer und sehr sauber.
Sehr gepflegte Anlage.
