Located neatly beside Swellendam’ s historic Drostdy Museum, old charm Boutique Hotel Roosje van de Kaap dates back to 1790. It boasts 14 beautifully appointed rooms and two pools in a lush garden setting with stunning views of the Langeberg mountains.

Hotel Roosje van de Kaap is an excellent option for a stay in Swellendam. It is walking distance to all restaurants and has a beautiful large garden with a swimming pool. All facilities are well maintained and the rooms are comfortable and pleasant. We stayed in the honeymoon room which had a great view and was very private.

Our company's workers that were there for the week enjoyed their stay, they didn't expect to have visitors (two rain spiders) but they enjoyed the rest of the stay. Thank you for accommodating them so well.

A nice hotel within walking distance of the center. It is quiet at night and you can sit outside your room when the weather is good. A spacious room with all necessities. Your car is within the gates and the breakfast in the morning is more than sufficient.

Very friendly staff. Beautiful decor rooms with a lovely fire place for those cold winter nights. Just need to supply more wood and fire starters. A nice english breakfast was served with yoghurt and fresh fruit.

We stayed here over Easter. The hosts were extremely helpful, booking dinner and organising a courier to return items we left. The room was lovely, very clean and welcoming. Would definitely go there again.

We stayed overnight and enjoyed the setting and the history of this fine establishment, as well as the friendly hospitality afforded us by the hosts. The place is well positioned with an excellent restaurant alongside where we ate dinner.
