The hotel's location was ideal, very quiet and safe. The rooms were clean, and the beds was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. From the front desk to the housekeeping team, everyone went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Everyone made sure that we enjoy our breakfast, by adjusting the food based on our taste and bringing anything we asked for.

I had the most incredible time at Dongola House! Our stay was beyond amazing, and it wasn't just because of the spacious and impeccably clean rooms that were tended to every day. The experience was elevated to new heights by the extraordinary hosts and staff. Natalie, in particular, stood out as a genuinely warm and kind individual who consistently checked in on us, ensuring our comfort and happiness throughout our stay. The breakfasts at Dongola House were not only delicious but also served promptly, setting the tone for each day. The variety of options available was simply astounding. What truly amazed me was the meticulous attention to detail that the staff exhibited. They even noticed my preference against bananas without me having to mention it – talk about going the extra mile! The small touches truly made this trip unforgettable. From thoughtfully setting out two cups for my mother and me to being readily available to cater to our needs, the entire team demonstrated an unparalleled level of dedication to our satisfaction. What's more, our room was graciously upgraded without any extra charge, allowing my mother and me to stay right next to each other. Even though we visited during the winter when occupancy was low, the exceptional level of service remained consistent and outstanding. I can only imagine how stunning Dongola House would be in the summer – a true home away from home, no matter the season. To sum it up, Dongola House offers an experience that goes above and beyond expectations. With its remarkable hosts, top-notch staff, and attention to even the smallest details, it's an oasis of comfort and luxury. My mother and I would undoubtedly choose to stay here again, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking an unforgettable getaway.

The house is superb, exquisitely decorated and located in one of the most beautiful corner of Constantia. Fine dining restaurants, Constantia Village, wine route, and touristic hotspots are all at a short driving distance. The room is big, well laid out and with a personal touch that makes you feel at home. I didn’t have time to explore the outside space of the guesthouse but you have the impression of walking into Kirstenbosch gardens as soon as you step outside your room. Wide selection at breakfast, both cold and warm, served with a big smile by the guesthouse’s friendly staff. To top it all up, Claudio and Karen are amazing hosts! Thank you for having me

Staying for one night only. I’ve now found my spot in Constantia and I can’t wait to be back.

Perfect location Renovated room Superb breakfast Welcoming staff

Our suite was too close to the parking driveway ( windows on the drive way)and we heard every evening guests and owner entering the property with the noisy sliding gate and the cars engine. We would have appreciated to be informed about it when we booked the room.

The wonderful balance of Swiss hospitality, practicality and elegant decoration. Very convenient to walk to Uitsig Wine estate. Claudio and Karin were very friendly and welcoming. Happy to suggest great restaurants, and other practical advice. Amazing breakfasts too. Happy to stay in future.

Nothing. After traveling to many places, very unusual to find a location that is so good in all areas (comfort, cleanliness, hospitality). Perfect for a visit to the wine regions especially.

Everything. From the beautifully quiet location in the heart of Constantia, to the warm and accommodating staff and owners. This is the best guesthouse we have stayed in. Our room was massive and beautifully appointed. If you are looking to stay in the southern suburbs, there is no need to look further than Dongola guesthouse.

Nothing worth mentioning.

Lots of wardrobe space, modern bathrooms, comfortable beds and excellent breakfasts. Owners and the staff Natalie and Rochelle, were welcoming and helpful.

WiFi was not available once we stepped outside. It wasn't easy to communicate with uber taxi drivers while waiting at the gate.

The Dongola is a beautiful guesthouse in a very safe, very quiet part of Constantia. The rooms are all separated so it seems like you have the place to yourself, the breakfasts are perfect, and the hospitality is fantastic. Groot Constantia estate is a nice distance walk away through the vineyards, and ubers are very easy to get around here in case walking back is a struggle..! If we were to visit Constantia again, we'd definitely stay at the Dongola!

No complaints at all!

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!!!
