This is the ideal place to relax and unwind. The cottage we stayed in was immaculate, tasteful, warm and very private. The pool and garden area is well maintained. The entertainment area was excellent; we spent the day watching movies on the big screen. Michael and the staff were friendly and very helpful. Even though we visited in the heart of winter, Michael and his team certainly warmed our hearts with their gracious hospitality.

Such a beautifully located, secure guest house. Waking up to the awesome mountain views had me in awe every morning.Friendly staff that go out of their way to assist but yet not in your face all the time. From my room it felt like I was in my own chalet in the middle of the bush. The inviting pool, the beautiful garden, I so wish I stayed longer. Whether you travel alone, with family or friends, this surely caters for all. Lots of history behind the area(Constantia), which was amazing to learn. I can highly recommend the Summit Place Guesthouse to anyone wanting to travel to the area. I will SURELY return in the near future.

We had a wonderful, 21-day stay at Summit Place after relocating to Cape Town with our 3-yr and 14-yr olds (from Houston, Texas). From a family point of view, the premises are beautiful and very secure. We particularly enjoyed the backyard and all the kid-friendly amenities such as the movie room, playground, pool, trampoline, water fountain (and Jackson the dog). There were families in similar situations also staying at Summit Place and we were lucky that their kids were playing with ours in a very safe environment. That, on top of the comfortable surroundings and the gracious support of the hosts Neal/Wendy made our transition a fun time to get used to South Africa hospitality. The hotel is located in a gorgeous part of Constantia and within walking distance to a vineyard and access to many trails (which the hosts offered to show us). The room was nice, clean and equipped with a complete kitchen. The staff is wonderful, especially Tendy - always ready to help, even letting our daughter borrow some DVDs from the movie room. The owners are very friendly and welcoming people, we even got to have dinner/braai with them one night! We highly recommend Summit Place to any visitors or families moving to Cape Town.

Absolute gem of a place, a real find, tucked away far from the madding world, serenely beautiful, gorgeous pool, beautiful garden, very helpful, pleasant but unobtrusive; it is difficult to get comparable places these days. My family and I absolutely loved the Summit Place and will recommend it to all our friends and associates.

We stayed for 5 nights on a business and leisure trip to Cape Town. Seldom before have we been made to feel this welcome and at home. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and they were always ready to provide recommendations for outings and restaurants. We had a lovely stay and will most certainly return. Well done to Dani & Tendi!

Excellent value for money. The house is a boutique hotel set in the great surroundings of Constantia, the best neighborhood to stay in Cape Town. The guest house is in perfect condition and offers all the amenities a hotel will if not more. A note apart for Michael and Tandy that made our stay a real pleasure with valuable recommendations and a delicious English breakfast. Take into account that you will need a car to move around (like anywhere else in SA).

We stayed with 2 other couples and had the 3 rooms by the pool which was just beautiful. The rooms, facilities and the surrounds were stunning and the staff very helpful and accommodating especially considering my husband and I were travelling with our then 8 week old baby! We enjoyed it so much we came back and spent our final night in Cape Town there as well. Can highly recommend Summit Place.

Michael and the rest of the staff made us feel right at home even though we arrived almost at mid-night due to flight delays. From the owners to Michael to the rest of the staff you will find a great deal of hospitality and welcome. We had the large room overlooking the pool. All I can say is WOW. The room was great, the view amazing, the breakfast in the morning was wonderful. If I were to go again, I would most certainly stay there again.

Summit Place is a terrific value based on price and location and can best be described as a hidden gem in the middle of Constantia. The staff led by Michael was extremely friendly and courteous and went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. During my business meetings the staff, especially Michael, was prepared to help me start my day on the right foot with room service breakfast and last minute preparations in the business center. The facilities is gorgeous and comfortable and I would recommend it to anyone regardless if for business or pleasure.

Fabulous, hidden gem. Michael and Karin offer their kindness, genuine interest in the well being of their guests and superb accommodation. I was a single traveller who was made to feel welcomed and I unhesitatingly recommend Summit House as an ideal base, from which to tour the Cape. Sincere thanks, Michael and Karin.

We had a wonderful “holyday” at the Summit Place. We arrived due to a delayed flight at 3 in the morning. But all we saw were smiling faces! We rented the spacious Garden Cottage/Studio (15 days). That gave us the freedom of renting a house with the services of a Bed and Breakfast. The Summit Place is situated in a quiet and very green neighborhood. Only minor detail was that the swimming pool is quite cold this time of year. But there’s no need to get bored! There’s lots to see and do in the Constantia surroundings and Michael provided us with all the information we wanted. Walking trails, restaurants, beaches and a lot of other things. We actually had only one time the opportunity to see a movie at the private cinema at the Summit Place. Also South Africa / Cape Town is a great place to stay this time of year. 20 to 25 C is very comfortable, especially when you are traveling with a 1 year old baby. Great beds! If you like to get spoiled, just make your booking at this Bed and Breakfast :-). And Michael , many thanks we had a great time!

Even finding me directions how to get to the start of the 2 oceans marathon. The room was beautifully decorated and I thoroughly enjoyed lazing in the pool after the long run. Will definitely stay at Summit place again when in cape Town.

This was the first time in Cape Town. Michael and company made us very welcome, everyone was helpfull, friendly and accommodating. We stayed in the garden cottage and the cottage studio. The cottage was a pleasant surprise, because it was specious, clean and with lovely views. What you see in the pictures is what you get. Another great thing with summit place is the location, it is close to everything you need and very easy to get to the centre of Cape Town, especially as it was our first time there. We loved Cape Town so much that we are definitely coming again and would stay at sumit place. 5/5 for everything, would highly recomend to anyone.

Hier kann man beides haben: Die wunderschöne Umgebung der Weinberge und die unmittelbare Nähe zu Kapstadt. Ich fühlte mich jederzeit absolut sicher und gut aufgehoben - Dank der angenehm unaufdringlichen Gastfreundschaft von Michael und Karen. Das Guesthouse ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet, die Ausstattung lässt es einem an nichts fehlen. Ich habe die private, ruhige Atmosphäre sehr genossen und würde sofort wiederkommen, wenn ich könnte!

Summit Place is a great venue with stunning views and offers spacious, secure and upmarket accommodation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Master Suite which was tastefully decorated and very well appointed. The staff in attendance were most welcoming and hospitable and we will certainly recommend Summit place to friends and colleagues who visit Cape Town. It also provided a great home from home for our daughter during her two month stay . Her terrace studio was lovely with its seperate kitchen and bathroom which was ideal for a long term stay. We had no worries about her being alone as Michael, Karen, Wendy and the team went out of their way to take wonderful care of her during this time.
