Southern Sun Newlands

房間小，住宿環境不錯，早餐很豐盛

非常非常好，👍🏻

I spent a night at the Southern Sun Newlands with my family and was shocked to find that my room looked virtually the same as it did on my previous stay 20 years ago. The state of the room was very poor. Old, dated furnishings and extremely small bathroom. The shower in the bathtub was only suitable if you are about 1.5m tall. I have never had to sit down and shower in any other hotel i have booked. Southern Sun is a well know South African hospitality brand, so surely they could update and renovate their hotels, especially the ones in an internationally renowned city like Cape Town. Also, being a Southern Sun Frequent Guest member , I imagined i would be provided a half-decent room. I would steer clear of this hotel until it has undergone a revamp.

Here’s the revised review: Westfield Guest House at 1 Lemon Lane is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the elegant decor that beautifully complements the historic architecture of the property. Janette, the owner, has clearly poured her heart into every detail, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels both luxurious and homely. The pool and garden were true highlights—perfectly maintained, peaceful, and an absolute dream to relax in. Whether we were lounging by the water or strolling through the lush greenery, it was pure bliss. The location is ideal, centrally located near all the best shops and restaurants in Newlands. It’s also just a quick drive to the Cape Town CBD and Waterfront, as well as the Constantia winelands.

Stayed at the hotel for 2 weeks for work business nearby. What a good hotel served and supported by brilliant staff and a chef who cooks each and every meal top class. Reception team were helpful from arrival to departure. Housekeeping top notch with a daily bed sheet change. And then the restaurant, all meals top notch including the adjacent Indian restaurant. All the staff were lovely and helpful but special mention to Wayne who always went the extra mile to make you feel welcome. I highly recommend this hotel and my only small downside was that I thought the shower and bath could be modernised a touch.

The Westfield is very good value. It's in a quiet, leafy suburb (with restaurants nearby) and within easy reach of central Cape Town. The charming and comfortable house is set in a delightful garden. The breakfast is delicious and copious, and hostess Janette couldn't be more helpful.
