Villa Zest has wonderful service. The people are friendly, helpful and well-trained. The inn is frankly quirky. Where else is a bathroom and bedroom combined and there is no privacy for using the toilet or showering. Our room was tiny with no chest of drawers for storage. Regardless, the people are so helpful and friendly one cannot help but fall... More

I stayed there for 2 nights while in Cape Town for work based on the trip advisor reviews I read. I loved it, it was like staying to someone's super stylish house. My room was lovely and very comfortable and the staff was very friendly and attentive. They also gave me great restaurants recommendations: do try Beluga near the hotel.... More

We came from a cruise and decided to stay a night in Cape Town. and here again Trip Advisor was a great help. We like small, nice hotels and this was one in gthe centre of Cape Town. The staff was very helpful and advised us about restaurants, things to do in a short time etc.

Stayed in the Villa Zest for 4 nights while attending a legal conference in Cape Town -- this small boutique hotel was just delightful as well as extremely well situated about 5 mins drive from the Conference Centre, and near some excellent restaurants. The Staff could not be more helpful, and did everything that was needed to enable me to... More

The Villa Zest Boutique Hotel is THE place to stay at in Cape Town if you're looking for a real laidback ambiance and a 'homestyle' stay. We spent 3 days in the mansion and were delighted by the warm welcome received, the attention to details engaged by the owners and the relaxing set up in a home which could feel... More

The retro decor is beyond cool, the bed comfortable, the breakfast tasty, but the best part of staying at Villa Zest was the experience. The staff go way above and beyond. Wine and nibbles in the garden by the firepit, booking restaurant reservations and excursion tickets, making wonderful and personalized suggestions for the next locations on our itinerary - they...

We stayed there for one night on Easter Monday 2013. Location: Close to the V&A and the city. It took us under 5 minutes to drive to the Waterfront complex and I guess that it would have taken about 15 minutes to walk. We were able to park the car on the road in front of the hotel. Room/Bathroom: We... More

found this hotel thru Tripadvisor. We were doubting between staying at one of the bigger hotels and this smaller hotel, and decided to risk it and go for Zest. Very good experience.
