Top Simon's Town Museum Hotel Reviews

Boulders Beach Hotel and Restaurant

8/10 Good

"Beautiful location. Hotel had its beauties but could have a few more updates such as better blinds for the windows. First day penguin noises woke us up at 6am. Staff could have been more helpful at times. One young male staff member walked right by my wife trying to carry her luggage up the stairs. I wasnt present at the time. There was no ramp. Other staff member need to give a more proffessional answer then a simple “no” when youre asking question. A couple other staff members were kind. Affordable place to stay if youre american for about $172 a night. Breakfast was good. The pancakes there are crepes."

Mariner Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Overall the Mariner is an excellent B&B. It is a converted upmarket home with an elevated, panoramic view of False Bay. It is spotlessly clean and well maintained. The furnishings are comfortable and tasteful. The outstanding breakfasts have a wide variety on offer and cater for all dietary restrictions. The property is within a several minute walk to the famous penguin colony and several picturesque beaches. It is about 10 minutes walk to historical Simonstown and it's numerous restaurants and quirky shops. Special mention must be made of Mandy, the lovely manager of the property, she is exceptionally friendly, helpful and knowledgable on local matters. If you are staying in the southern Cape Peninsula, this is the place to be!"
