This boutique hotel is in a perfect spot in walking distance of Sea Point Main Road and the Beach Road promenade. The attention to design detail is astounding, and every area of the hotel is gorgeous and oozing with style. Our room (101?? 104??) was huge and felt like a retreat. I don't think that all rooms are of this size. The pool is teeny so just a vertical dip to cool down in the hot Summer. Service and cleanliness are unsurpassed. Will definitely make this my home-away-from-home in CT!

My husband and I had a one-night's stay here as we wanted to be in Sea Point. While there were a couple of technical issues with the tv and the blind, overall our stay was great. The best aspects were: Just loved the decor including the old suitcases and books. Beautifully decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the linens soft and luxurious. Loved the honesty bar in both buildings and for the mini-bar in the room The patio was stunning with a great view Remarkably quiet for the centre of CT! Outstanding breakfast- the Eggs Benedict was sublime Very friendly and accommodating staff. We look forward to visiting again.

Fantastic stay!!! Loved and enjoyed every minute of it. Excellent choice of breakfast. The decor is simply magnificent, Mervyn Gers ceramics just adds on to the attention to detail. Loved the art in my room. Beds were super comfortable!!! But my highlight was definitely the wonderful staff!! Thanks Roy and Ollu. You offer world class hospitality! Without asking, they assist with luggage (and a lot of shopping bags😅). The spacious balcony allows you to enjoy a view of Signal Hill. I can highly recommend this boutique house.

Room we were assigned 402 was inhospitable and not as advertised. We had to check out immediately and move to a proper hotel room. In only 5 minutes, we hit our heads several times and were unable to stand up. In addition, the poor ventilation and AC broken were making it unbearably hot in this small room and windows could not air out. In addition, we were worried about parking as "secured parking" had been advertised on the site beforehand but only street parking was available given full capacity. Given this, we chose to move and pay for another hotel where we could stand up and AC worked. We were able to get a five star room at Taj Cape Town for the same price as this room which was infinitely nicer. The hotel team here kindly offered to refund us via phone and email but then stalled and never gave us refund despite chasing multiple times.…

Greetings! Thank you so much for your feedback, it has been well noted. Please be advised that when booking on booking.com as well as our website you are given an option to select the room which you would like to book and and image is displayed to show you which room you have selected, what you see on the web is exactly what you get and the slanted roof is very clear in the image, we are however sorry that you hit your head on the lower roof. The room has air conditioning and no AC was broken. Please be advised that our cancellation policy does state that premature departures will not be refunded and this was the case however we were kind enough to offer you a refund and your funds were refunded back to your account yet you still left a bad review on booking.com and when kindly asked to remove it you declined and advised that once funds reflect in your account you will attempt to remove it. We would like to apologize for your unpleasant experience as this is not the kind of experience we wish on any of our guests. We hope to have you back in the future in one of our Deluxe Rooms which we know you will enjoy. All the best Pineapple House Team

The hotel is very Instagram worthy. The service is very friendly and welcoming. We booked the deluxe room which is still small by South African standards. I wouldn’t recommend booking the smaller rooms unless you are alone. The a la carte option for breakfast did take very long, we usually had to spend over an hour for breakfast. When we arrived in the room the towels on the towel rack was damp, I thought that maybe it was due to it not being dried properly. However over the course of our stay housekeeping would fold up the damp towels we used so that whenever we wanted to shower we would only have damp towels as the towel rail doesn’t work. I’m now not sure if we were given clean towels. The towels are worn out and need to be replaced. The linen when we checked in had a brown stain. And towels that were replaced also had stains. The parking on the property was a bit inconvenient as you had to get out ask someone to open and close everything you arrived or left. It was very windy in Cape Town and I struggled to sleep as the doors aren’t fitted properly and it constantly rattled throughout the night. If it’s not windy then it would be fine as the area is quiet. Since it’s a converted house if you stay on the top floors like we did, you have to climb the stairs several times a day. Overall a pretty hotel with attention to detail missing & small rooms which don’t justify the cost. …
