Reviews for Albatross Guest House

Review 1:Stunning view, big apartment with balconies for every space. Away from the main touristy area of Cape Town as a good quiet option for visiting Simon's Town or Cape Point (car is probably a must for easy traveling in and out, since it's at the top of the hilly residential area). The guest house received us professionally even we had problem renting a car at the airport and thus arrived later than scheduled. The host has been very friendly and responsive on email. They also suggested and helped to book a restaurant in advance on the Christmas Day since many places were closed. We had a little problem of the electricity at night but we were informed that it's a problem the whole town had. We followed instruction on phone with the host and it's solved immediately.

Review 2:Be aware, Simonstown has no supermarkets only lovely small shops. Nearest facility(Pick&Pay) to do the shopping for self catering is in Fish Hoek a couples of km away (having a car is preferred).

Review 3:To visit Simonstown is a must... The accomodation has a superb view. It is ideal to relax. We had delicious* lunch at Boulders Restaurant (fish&chips*) and dinners at Bertha's (calamary-strips*, prawns-1kg in pan*) (*=strictly private taste)

Review 4:No problems or dislikes. Would suggest that eldery people be informed about the steep steps to property from parking area.

Review 5:Excellent location offers the best views of Simonstown naval harbour area and Falsebay - at day and at night. Friendly hosts. Good value for money. No unpleasant surprises. You get what is promised on the site. Would have loved to stay longer.
