We spent 5 nights in the garden view room and 2 nights in the sea view room. The garden view room ist the smallest room in the house still, it felt spacious and you have direct access to the garden. The sea view appartment with it´s lovely terrace overlooking the atlantic and the lions head is absolutley fantastic. Everything is... More

This was my first time to this guest house even though I am a frequent Traveller to cape town. The house caters largely to German tourists. The rooms are first class spacious and the beds divine. Service is 5 star with Linay going out of her way to help Breakfast is better than in most five star hotels

Our room at Le Gouverneur was lovely with wonderful views of Camps Bay, the mountains and the full length pool. Petro and her staff could not do enough for us. Petro went to so much trouble providing us with a fantastic wedding anniversary breakfast with roses and a beautifully flower decked table. I would certainly recommend Le Gouverneur to anyone...

Beautiful room with gorgeous views, delicious breakfasts. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The pool and garden were delightful and the pool was big enough to swim properly.

Could not have asked for better accommodation. This was our first trip to South Africa and the whole experience was an absolute pleasure. From the very start of booking our trip the management at Le Gouverneur were extremely helpful and fast to respond to any queries / worries we may have had....for example we had travelled overnight on a long...

Beautiful guest house in a great Camps Bay location - up the hill with beautiful views but close enough to walk to the beach/restaurants. Staff was very friendly, welcoming and eager to please. Rooms - large and comfortable. Good continental breakfast.

From the moment we arrived after our long trip from the UK , Petro greeted us with a smile and a lovely cup of tea by the pool, nothing was too much trouble. Our room was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. Everything we needed to make our first trip to South Africa a very memorable one. All staff were friendly... More

We stayed at Le Gouverneur for 3 nights and although warmly welcomed by the staff, we did not meet the manager nor were we properly checked-in until day 2. We had a minor issue with our keys: we could get into the property (past the gates) but not into the house. This was also resolved on day 2. Breakfast was... More

We have just returned home after three weeks in South Africa. While almost every part of the holiday matched our hopes, one disappointment was the Le Gouverneur Guest House: the place we chose to stay in Camps Bay. We knew the costs for this accommodation were high (some £150 per night) when we booked – but it seemed the going... More
