Beautiful location, amazing view. The room was clean and nice. Felt very safe. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Exactly what we were looking for. A bit of a drive from Cape Town, but so pretty and worth it. Can come and go at any time. Property is very well lit. Nice little pool as well. Would highly recommend. I stayed with a partner this time but would have felt safe here as a solo female traveler as well.

All good. FYI the bathroom door has a window, which could be a little awkward depending on who you are traveling with but not really an issue at all. Would not necessarily recommend driving back from Cape Town in the dark regularly though, so keep that in mind if you have evening plans there.

The staff's friendliness of both the owner and staff is exceptional. Awesome staff, Great venue, perfect tarred road to the venue, exceptional mountain views. The room was well equipped with clean bedding, coffee facilities, coffee station, enough warm water. The Molen Guest House, with its picturesque setting and traditional charm, is a serene escape in Somerset West. Guests have praised its breathtaking views, tranquil atmosphere, and the warm hospitality provided by the hosts. The establishment boasts tastefully furnished rooms and a range of amenities including a swimming pool, ensuring a comfortable and memorable stay. It's convenient location allows for easy exploration of the nearby wine region and Cape Town's vibrant city center, making it an ideal choice for travelers seeking both relaxation and adventure.

We would really appreciate coffee in the unit for the morning as well. That we didn't book for more nights :)

We had a wonderful stay at this guesthouse! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcomed with their warm hospitality and attentive service. The facilities were spotless and well-maintained, creating a comfortable and relaxing environment throughout our stay. The overall atmosphere was calm and inviting. For dinner we had the chicken curry which was exceptional. The breakfast the following morning was outstanding.

Photos don't do this place justice. It is absolutely stunning! The rooms are quaint, clean and gorgeous! The staff are welcoming and friendly. Always around if you need anything in the background but leave you to enjoy the hotel.

Everything about the hotel was perfect. More beautiful than many 5*'s I've stayed in! Just an FYI about the area (SS West)- Uber's take a while so pre-book.

The view and location was fantastic, the staff were friendly and would have liked to have had time to have a breakfast in the morning, but had to leave too early.

The original room was booked with 2x single beds, but the room only had a queen bed. The staff did offer to rectify and change the bed out with 2 single beds when we went out, but I rather just opted for a 2nd room instead, which they offered at a discounted rate.

The view is spectacular the location is great, the staff is great and the food is spectacular…. The rooms are nice as well.

It’s very cold, it would be great if they can fit in carpets in the rooms also a heater or electric blankets or more blankets. It’s very cold because the mountain is just next door. Doors to be fixed as well, they randomly open We prefer the shower head rather than the tap.

Great spot to be within easy reach of Somerset West and Stellenbosch, but away from the traffic and bustle. Staff accommodating of our needs and helped where they could

Loved the locality but for a sports group with sporting equipment (mountain bikes) it was not ideal with regard storage

I had the pleasure of staying at this cozy and delightful accommodation. From the moment I arrived, I felt like a valued guest, and the kindness shown by both the host and Ever-Joyce, the assistance truly made this a standout experience. Moreover, Ever-Joyce was an absolute gem - her warm hospitality and helpfulness added an extra layer of charm to the experience. The breakfast was also freshly made and filled with goodness. The host is incredibly welcoming, going above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

I loved the peace and quiet...relaxing on the loungers by the pool...fabulous view of the Hottentots-Holland mountain range. I had asked for 2 single beds as I shared with my son, and was delighted to get a room where there was a completely separate attic room. The owner came to chat at breakfast. The staff member who received and served us was a joy.

I did make a request regarding being gluten intolerant, which was never acknowledged.

The house is a restored farm house.Tastefully redecorated without loosing its rustic charm.Set In idyllic surroundings at the foot of the helderberg mountains.The overall estate has a history that goes back to Simon Van der Stel one of the earliest Dutch settlers and first Governor of the Dutch Colony. The owners managers and staff are friendly giving the place a home away from home feel.

There were no negatives I loved the place . I only wish I had more time there.
