Roland and his wife has created an oasis behind the gates to the street! They offer a warm welcome, and are happy to help you with all you need. Lovely gardens with petite pool for morning plunges, cosy stoop for evening drinks or afternoon coffee when you come home from a busy day on the town. But the rooms are even more worth talking about, each with its tote animal. They are spectacular! Wildlife and safari styled, the offer an intriguing yet cosy atmosphere.
We spent a very enjoyable 4 days at Jardin d’ebene. Roland and Alexandra were wonderful hosts. We were upgraded to the Elephant Room, which was very comfortable. The property has plenty of public spaces (indoor lounge, covered veranda, pool area and garden) which means you have lots of room to relax unlike sone other guest houses which can feel quite cramped. The location in Tamboerskloof is very convenient.
We loved the tasteful interior decoration. The breakfast was delicious. The owners were very helpful with suggestions and tips. The garden is luxurious. The only slightly negative point is the size of the pool but you can just relax near it and enjoy the trees in the garden.
I stayed here for 2 weeks whilst visiting my daughter and would highly recommend Jardin d'Ebene. I would certainly return. The position is perfect ... easily accessible to all parts of Cape Town. My room was very clean and comfortable. I had everything I needed. Roland was wonderfully hospitable and very easy to talk to. Staff were always very pleasant and obliging. Breakfast out on the terrace overlooking the pool was lovely too. Highly recommended.
This guesthouse really is a little oasis, and one that is perfectly located in Cape Town. i could walk to most destinations. The host could not have been more helpful. The setting is lovely. Breakfasts were delicious and hearty, and fruit and muffins were available throughout the day. There is a covered porch as well as an outside deck near the small pool. I plan to make this my family's "go-to" place in Cape Town from now on.
