Reviews for Belmonte Guesthouse
Review 1:Did not have the little things that make a 4 star guest house, no milk or creamer in the room, no fridge in the room and no water in the room, just didn't make any effort and breakfast, very average - more 3 star than 4 star....
Review 2:The guest house has a nice setting and quite modern, lovely outlook over Paarl
Review 3:Didnt have a fridge in our room No milk with the tea and coffee supplied in the room Had no power on the Tuesday from 3pm to midnight, one of the hottest days in the Cape. Rooms were as hot as a pizza oven hence slept on the outside furniture at the pool deck, blown transformer, not Belmonte fault however feel a 4 star establishment should have a generator for power outages longer than 2 to 3 hours.
Review 4:Fantastic, friendly and helpful staff made it feel like home away from home. Upmarket, stylish, comfortable, relaxing environment hence one wanted to spend time sitting around the pool, enjoying the views and relaxing.
Review 5:The milk bottle from previous day was not removed. Was hot day and the milk got sour. Although the fridge in the room was switched on, fresh milk for 2nd day had to be collected from main fridge downstairs
Review 6:The breakfast was very good. Room comfortable.
Review 7:The breakfast staff was unprofessional and rude. We were told breakfast is served from 8-10 but at 9 they were not interested in serving us and made their displeasure known.
Review 8:View was amazing. Rooms are well located and spacious.
Review 9:Absolutely disappointing! Could just as well celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary in our own romantic, luxurious bedroom at home. We’ve paid almost R2000 for a room which has been extremely scantily equipped with NO atmosphere what so ever, No bath and water of the shower was cold. When I’ve made the booking, I clearly mentioned that it was for a romantic weekend getaway for our 28th wedding anniversary. This has been our worst wedding anniversary ever! Other hotels and guest houses have gone out of their way in order to make previous anniversaries an unforgettable experience. We will never ever again make use of Belmonte Guesthouse. NO VALUE FOR MONEY AT ALL!!! We’ve expected much more luxury and attention to detail, of a four-star guesthouse- Belmonte Guesthouse does not even deserve a one single star !!! The breakfast was so boring that we've skipped the next breakfast and had breakfast at Mugg & Bean in the Mall.
Review 10:Beautiful view
Review 11:That I did not know earlier about this good value for money accomodation in the Cape."sic"
Review 12:The high quality & good finishes to this establishment. The friendly reseption & the "owner" runs the guest house.
Review 13:Wished we had a fridge in the room and it was hard to find at first!
Review 14:Very private location with lovely views over paarl. The rooms were huge with a lovely private balcony. We really enjoyed our stay!
Review 15:A very nice view from the Guesthouse room, over Paarl, friendly owner and staff. Guesthouse right a the very end of the street steep ascent. Restaurant recommended worth going!
Review 16:No tea and coffee facilitates in the room and no fridge. Missing toiletries. Basic breakfast for a 4 star guesthouse. To far to the town and the restaurants.
Review 17:The view was very nice and the pool area.
Review 18:We had to drive around to find the hotel. It's well hidden, which isn't a bad thing. The breakfast is from 7am to 9am. But we had to wait until 7.30am before the kitchen opened. Be sure to mention in advance you'll be eating early.
Review 19:Great view Nice and big rooms Friendly people
Review 20:Lack of covered parking, in-adequate TV channels, lack of "bar-fridge" in room and cool drinking water, stereo-type breakfast if you stay over for a number of days.
Review 21:Location (in Paarl) as well as for ease in reaching surrounding areas/towns/tourist attractions, etc, view, general standard, good quality food (...but?)
Review 22:A minor point only but I suggest a sign is put on the right hand side of the gate so that the Belmonte name can be seen as guests drive up the steep hill.
Review 23:Our room was very spacious with a large balcony and an excellent view. Everything was done to a very high standard with an excellent breakfast. It was a relaxing place to stay with private parking.
Review 24:The owner is never their, she leaves the place to be run by literally 2 kitchen maids,, though very kind, have no hospitality skills. One bedside lamp wasn't working, she said and I quote the Madame knows. We had to go down to the shops to get decent coffee, their was cheap chicory coffee for a four star, not acceptable. Beautiful place shockingly run.
Review 25:The actual guesthouse is beautifully done, fabulous property and the rooms are well appointed.

Review 76:Belmonte is a bit far away from the restaurants and shops. It's quite a walk and you should use a car.
Review 77:The Belmonte Guesthouse is located at the slope of the Paarl Mountain and not so easy to find even using a navigation system. But after we where brought to our room we were really pleased by the astonishing view from the balcony. You overlook Paarl and the surrounding areas and it is really amazing to watch the sun rising in front of you while the city is still wrapped in blackness. Or watching the sunset, when Paarl is going dark but lights going on and all the mountains are illuminated in yellow and red colors. Amazing! The room was very nice furnished, huge and had some modern pictures. The window opened to the astonishing view over Paarl. The breakfast was nothing really special. Cereals, fruits, a warm meal with eggs and bacon and so on. We also want to thank the owner of the Belemonte for the recommendation of the Terra Marre restaurant and the help getting there and back. Because the guest house is located a bit outside the center and you need a car or taxi to get to the restaurants or shops.
Review 78:A bit remote location, which means you do need a car (no problem for us). The internet was working a bit shakey at times.
Review 79:beautiful house bild in the hills with a great view over the Paarl valley. Very nice spacious room, swimming pool and nice breakfast in the morning.
Review 80:Certainly one of the nicest rooms I've ever seen - and I travel extensively both for pleasure and business. As soon as we arrived we knew we'd made a mistake in booking this hotel... for only one night!!! Beautiful, spacious room, tastefully decorated, magnificent view over Paarl and the surrounding mountains - even from the lavish bathtub. Huge bathroom as well. Good breakfast. Warm welcome. You just have to be aware that this hotel is a bit outside of Paarl, and you have to drive up quite a steep narrow road, if only for 400 meters... Well, we'll be back - and next time for more than just one night!
