We really enjoyed our stay at Katrin's guesthouse! She truly does her best so we can feel at home. The guesthouse is very well located and offers a magnificient view on the City Bowl and Table Mountain. The rooms and the bathrooms were clean and the beds really comfy. In the morning, an excellent breakfast is served and a refreshing... More

It's so liberating with the simple yet stylish design, the amazing views, the self-service breakfast buffet and the very friendly and personal service. It really is a home away from home. Situated in a calm residential area still close to restaurants and shops in the city. OK - it's on a hill so it might be a bit strenuous to... More

Can't say enough good things Great view of the city and harbor. Katrin did a great job of making us feel at home. We stayed for 9 nights in the Apartment with the garden view. Close walk to Long Street and not too far from the City Center, which made it a very quiet little spot. Great little B&B LOVED... More

Upperbloem is really everything you could want in Cape Town. It has amazing views of Table Mountain AND the ocean, and is also in a lovely muslim neighborhood. It seemed like a lot of hotels were in a much less residential area, so was happy to be at our place! There's a nice pool as well as a beautiful communal... More

We immediately felt very at home here. Katrin couldn't do enough for us, including providing gluten free bread for my husband. The room was very comfortable and we loved having such a fantastic view of the city when eating breakfast on the balcony. Great value and thoroughly recommend it!

We had a lovely stay in this little hotel. The location was ideal - near the centre of town, but with a fantastic view of the city. The room was clean tidy and big. Most of all, the owner was extremely knowledgeable and helpful - she always went the extra mile to help.

We had a fantastic stay here for two nights using it as our base to visit Cape Town before heading out to the winelands. Good location, although a car is needed to get up the hill. Only negative is my fiancee found it hard to sleep at night due to the noise in the corridor from other guests. Didn't affect... More

It's was a very large room with everthing in it we need, except wlan connection was bad or not existing in our room. Breakfast was varied and the owner had some good tips for tours and restaurants. We booked a very good township tour over the hotel too.

We stayed in Upperbloem for 3 nights. When we arrived a day early because I had messed up our reservation, Katrin went out of her way to accomodate us and booked us into a room anyway. Really excellent breakfasts, and the views from the balcony in the dining area are outstanding. Close to everything! 5 minute drive to V&A waterfront... More
