Detailed Reviews
My husband and I stayed here in the days after our holiday, before we made the return trip home. Louise' place was exactly what we needed. It was comfortable, with room to relax, close by food (grocery and cafe), and quiet poolside seating to soak in the sun (not to mention the pool itself!). Louis was great to work with in making the reservation, as well as making herself available on site if we needed anything. Be aware that there is "nothing around here", so if you're looking for touristy sites, you might want to go elsewhere. But if you just want a clean, affordable place, then this is it.

Hi L,
To be 100 % Honest to you was the best thing that has happened to me and my family finding your place. I’m putting my colleague in copy who is strongly interested in your place after my witness.
I recommend.
I wish you and Clive a happy new year.
My best regards,

Thank you for your heartwarming comments, which we appreciate. We certainly look forward to the next visit. Boston Bellville has been referred to as the 'hub' of Cape Town, allowing easy access to airport, winefarms, Stellenbosch, beaches, City Centre, V&A Waterfront, shopping malls, outdoor markets and many sporting areas.

I have been in business for more than 21 years and I have relied on repeat business and personal referrals. My guests return week after week, month after month and year after year. Thank you to all the guests for their loyalty, and if this criticism was truthful why do my guests continue to return. I recommend prospective guests to come and judge for themselves. I guarantee you will experience the complete opposite to what has been alleged. Bad reviews, if constructive can be beneficial. However, blatant lies by a deceitful and dishonest guest, who did not settle her account and had to be asked to leave, warrants the contempt it deserves. Proudly, Markotter Place

I've been coming here for over 4 years and enjoyed every moment. Not only is the management and staff friendly, but more like family. Going the extra mile is part of who they are. The rooms are very comfortable and clean, and the service is just great. I always return here on my business trips for these reasons. Three cheers for Markotter...hip...hip......?

Markotter was our "home away from home" during our adoption trip. Louise was a very welcoming hostess, who immediately made us at ease. Nice cosy rooms. Small, secluded garden with a swimmingpool. Rooms are cleaned daily. We stayed in the appartment "Little Otter".
When we go back to Capetown, we will surely book again at Markotter place.

We stayed for a period 7 days and had a really pleasant stay. I was impressed by the fact that it accommodated my little one as some places are not so accommodative of children. Louise was an excellent host.

The owner is very helpful and service minded. When we asked for help on some small thing she did her most to help us. The breakfast was luxiourious and she made efforts to get us the things we wanted (in effect, we would eat it all and not through things away - a very environmental friendly approach). The kids and we loved it here!

Markotter Place is ideally located just minutes from CPT Airport and 20 minutes from the waterfront. Louise, the owner is always pleasant and present to ensure your stay is memorable. Lovely garden with pool and trampoline give plenty of activity to keep the little ones active. Rooms to accommodate families or business travelers alike. Self catering or have an awesome breakfast as Louise is a fabulous cook.
A must stay at a very reasonable cost while visiting Capetown.
