Newly renovated, with modern facilities and you could even cook! Warm, friendly and welcoming hosts, very communicative. Fast internet was perfect for working, and walking distance to the penguins and the main street with restaurants. I would've happily stayed here for one month!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about the Dongola Guesthouse. From the moment we booked, the staff was super attentive and helpful. Claudio was welcoming and gave us wonderful travel tips and recommendations. Natalie and Rochelle always greeted us with a smile and couldn't be more helpful. The property was gorgeous and clean. Better than the photos! We loved lounging by the pool. The breakfast was abundant and delicious. The room was spacious and comfortable and the shower was excellent. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!!

    The interiors, comfort, personal touches (Babylonstoren snacks and wines) & incredible staff made it an unbelievable stay! Unfortunately although we planned to stay longer, I broke my foot and we had to leave. The staff were UNBELIEVABLE with my foot and made an awful ordeal much more bearable. Thank you!

    The hotel is absolutely beautiful. The room I was assigned had no view but was warm and cozy, beautifully decorated and luxurious. The food is heavenly! JC makes the best pesto gnocchi ever! The staff really are on a level seldom found, professional, compassionate, warm and friendly. I had a family crisis, the care and support I received from everyone helped me through an incredibly tough time. I look forward to returning with my spouse, enjoying a relaxing holiday and creating happy memories. Thank you Nono and Siya, see ya soon!!
