Tolles Zimmer, super Service. Das Frühstück, v.a. das Surprise Omlette, war ein Traum. Man braucht definitiv ein Auto (kann nachts gesichert geparkt werden), da nicht in Nähe der CBD. Aber idealer Ausgangspunkt um die Kaphalbinsel zu erkundigen. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tahir 1 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay!

The standard is consistently very good with staff being pleasant to deal with. As usual the breakfast was excellent. On this occasion I encountered a problem with the TV set in Room 5 and I trust that management will sort this out. ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jim, BC Canada 4 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Staff and facilities met or exceeded expectations.

When you sit in garden you are 20ft from lorries cars and the noise of car stereos going THUD THUD, and breathing their fumes. even at night we could hear cars racing down the road or accelerating away (it is one house away from traffic lights), Nice room but poor situation. Had to park in street for first night. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stuart 26 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Really good Very pleasant and helpful staff. Secure parking, nice pool, good WiFi reception and very conveniently placed for the cricket ground at Newlands. We cannot really fault it. ##### Stuart ### 10/10 Excellent #### B & F, Hampshire, England 13 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Superbly comfortable Guest House in great location The welcome from the Staff was excellent and that experience continued - they simply couldn't do enough to make us comfortable. Fruit, biscuits and even a small carafe of Port in the room; a breakfast that we'll struggle to beat anywhere; and additional meals (when requested) superbly cooked and served. Even a picnic (in a cool bag) was suggested by the Staff for our day in Kirstenbosch gardens, which made a wonderful day even better. If we had questions about anything - directions, the best time to visit places, etc - the Staff took time to research and provide very helpful answers. The location of Wild Olive was brilliant from our perspective, a short drive to Cape Town's V & A and easy access to the False Bay coast, and the Airport, with Kirstenbosch just minutes away. The garden was a place to relax with good seats/sunloungers, a shady Gazebo with comfortable sofas/cushions, and a good swimming pool - sadly, access was limited to early or later in the day due to the water shortage, but even the water shortage was well managed with very little inconvience. We simply can't rate the Wild Olive highly enough. ##### B & F Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 3 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely guesthouse with great access to Cape The Wild Olive Guest House is well appointed, with delicious breakfasts, comfortable rooms, lounge, and garden area. Everything about this classic, old house is welcoming. The owners are very friendly and helpful. We stayed over the holidays and the rooms had fresh stocks of homemade holiday cookies and chocolates everyday - a very nice touch. Will definitely stay here next time in the Cape. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Radisson Hotel Cape Town Foreshore](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Cape-Town-Foreshore.h4623642.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean View House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Ocean-View-House.h3091584.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Foundry Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Old-Foundry-Hotel.h57820595.Hotel-Information) > > [The Portswood Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Portswood-VA-Waterfront.h526896.Hotel-Information) > > [The Alphen Boutique Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Alphen-Boutique-Hotel.h46794.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rockefeller Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Rockefeller-Hotel.h71673357.Hotel-Information) > > [Krystal Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Krystal-Beach-Hotel.h15651822.Hotel-Information) > > [Southern Sun The Cullinan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Southern-Sun-The-Cullinan.h118030.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Taj-Cape-Town.h3016361.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Collection Hotel, Waterfront Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Waterfront.h545852.Hotel-Information) > > [Tintswalo Boulders](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Tintswalo-At-Boulders-Boutique-Villa.h31526122.Hotel-Information) > > [President Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-President-Hotel.h526107.Hotel-Information) > > [ONOMO Hotel Waterfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Signature-Lux-Hotel-By-ONOMO.h27811489.Hotel-Information) > > [The Clarendon - Fresnaye](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Clarendon-Fresnaye.h3004641.Hotel-Information) > > [Lagoon Beach Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Lagoon-Beach-Hotel-Spa.h1320739.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Westin-Cape-Town.h916261.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House at the Queen Victoria Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Manor-House-At-The-Queen-Victoria-Hotel.h19310581.Hotel-Information) > > [Pepperclub Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Pepperclub-Hotel.h3534309.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sky Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Hotel-Sky-Cape-Town.h63494685.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Bay-Hotel.h18132.Hotel-Information) > > [The Commodore Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Commodore-Hotel.h83744.Hotel-Information) > > [Vineyard Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Vineyard-Hotel.h523689.Hotel-Information) > > [Living Hotel Lions Eye](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Houghton-View-Guest-House.h10633636.Hotel-Information) > > [Mountain Marina Luxury Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Mountain-Marina-Luxury-Apartments.h24940058.Hotel-Information) > > [Victoria and Alfred Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Victoria-Alfred-Hotel.h46797.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Cape Town City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Pullman-Cape-Town-City-Centre.h17925242.Hotel-Information) > > [The Onyx Apartment Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Onyx-Apartment-Hotel.h28825118.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson RED V&A Waterfront, Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-Radisson-RED-Hotel-VA-Waterfront-Cape-Town.h18644202.Hotel-Information) > > [City Lodge Hotel Victoria And Alfred Waterfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-City-Lodge-Hotel-Victoria-And-Alfred-Waterfront.h485189.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Cape-Town-Waterfront.h29305328.Hotel-Information)
