Wild Olive Guest House

A welcoming, very comfortable, clean and conveniently located BnB. The food was delicious and the staff went out of their way to make me feel at home.

This guest house is a real gem! Situated in a quiet area, which felt very safe, with secure off street parking available. The house has been beautifully converted, but still retains much of its original character. Our 'superior' room was very spacious and comfortable, with a separate seating area accessed through French doors, which was great. Unfortunately the weather wasn't brilliant during our stay, but the garden would be a lovely place to sit out in during warmer months. All the staff were extremely welcoming and went out of their way to be helpful. We particularly appreciated being able to drop off our luggage in the morning on the first day before check-in, and then being able to use the communal lounge after check-out on our last day, before heading off to the airport. Thank you, and we'll definitely be back!

We had an apartment with cool kitchen/livingroom, own outside space and separate bedroom connecting to the rest with french doors. I liked that they thought of putting an European electrical splitter( there is never enough contacts in hotels), small moon shape cookies saying sleep well, all toiletry essentials. It was really clean, very cosy place with a very friendly staff. Good value for the money.

A nice converted house in the suburbs. Very professional and helpful staff. Really nice breakfasts. Had a really lovely suite. The one problem I had was that the wifi was very erratic and would drop frequently. Often trying to shift between the router and the extender. I also struggled to connect via an MTN dongle, so maybe a mobile connectivity problem in the area. Staff go out of their way to be helpful.

Staying at the Wild Olive Guest house exceeded my expectations, From friendly and courteous staff, great food and a wonderful place to lay your head down at night....simply fantastic! Would definitely recommend this Guest house to family and friends and will definitely be staying there again when going to Cape Town.

Wild Olive is a wonderful bed and breakfast facility located in a large house in the leafy suburb of Newlands. The staff are outstanding. Breakfast is extensive and the garden and swimming pool are ideal for relaxation. Security is excellent. Load shedding creates some difficulties for the owners but they manage these challenging times with aplomb. I would highly recommend this little gem.
