“happy traveler”

Barry and Mina are excellent hosts and breakfast is very satisfying. If you are looking for a small intimate, homey type of accommodation that is in a very convenient location, choose Jambo. Request either the Green or Rose Room.

“A guest house with individual character”

The Jambo Guest House has a certain individual charm and character about it and is run by a friendly couple who are always on hand to offer assistance and advice. I stayed at this guest house during a three night business visit to Cape Town. I was staying in the last remaining room, the Honeymoon Suite which has a separate entrance (over the little pond with Koi Carp). The decoration and fittings in the room were certainly unlike those of the normal chain hotels. The Mini Bar prices are extremely reasonable as is the Bar in the main residence. Unfortunately due to business commitments in the evenings I never had the chance to experience the atmosphere in the Bar however from what I heard in the mornings over breakfast it seems to be good. The breakfast was a comprehensive, plentiful cold buffet that was more than satisfactory. For travellers expecting pristine accommodation perhaps this is not for you. For those of you that prefer a more homely and individual residence whilst away from home then this could be ideal. I personally would not hesitate to go back.

Area recommendations
V & A Waterfront for shopping and restaurants close by....but use a licensed taxi in the evenings. This area had all manner of designer and regular shops available as well as good restaurants. In addition to this the location is ideal for the world cup matches at the new large football stadium that is being completed within a couple of hundred meters.
