We stayed at the Sweet Orange Guesthouse on two separate ocassions in February, 2012.  On our first visit we were assigned the SUN room and we fell in love with it immediately. It is a very spacious and comfortable room.  We had wonderful weather during our stay so a fan at night proved adequate.  On warmer nights, air-conditioning would be... More

....as this is one of 4 guesthouses owned by the same people. If you like to look of all four guest houses, go for it; but if, like me, you only want to stay at one of them I would steer well clear as who knows where you might end up as they move you on a whim. I booked... More

Thiis B&B is so cosy and relaxed that you feel home at once. Breakfast is rich and healthy, only fresh food is served. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is good, the beach is in walking distance. Lots of restaurants in the area. For our next stay in Cape Town we will definitively choose Sweet Orange House again.... More

Sweet Orange is a pretty B&B in Sea Point and the location is good (close to the beach and not so far from Waterfront and Cape Town). We had no problem to park the car in the street and you don't need a GPS to go there. The staff is friendly and you can feel like "at home" specially if... More

This place is well located in Sea Point, close to the shops and the boulevard (where the hop on - hop off bus stops). The rooms are cozy and home like and there is a small garden where you can sit outside. All the rooms are different and the staff was friendly. Wifi and breakfast are charged, the breakfast is...

Stayed here twice about a month apart. First stay was marred by struggles with front door lock which also kept us awake with other guests needing help. This was resolved by second visit thankfully. Although advertised as B&B, breakfast not included in most bookings -- but 59rand bought a filling breakfast. Best room is Dreams (upstairs) for decor and relatively... More

Sweet Orange Guesthouse is located in an older villa in Sea Point, the Jewish quarter of Cape Town. Sea Point Promenade with shops and restaurants is at a walking distance. It is a quiet and safe accommodation for the weary traveller, most of its visitors are backpackers. Rooms are clean and showers are OK. The hostel is relatively far from... More

Had booked Sweet Lemon but was transferred to Sweet Orange upon reaching there. I think i'm honestly sitting on the fence for this one because there is a form of comparison because this was the last B&B stop before i fly back home and this would have been the 4th place we stayed during our SA trip. Service was friendly... More
