74 guests' feedbackOffer an excellent breakfast.
Slept well. Friendly and helpful has taken on a new meaning. Thanks to Liesel and her team for just good service and a great guest house.
Mandy was a gem and the face of the guesthouse. Her helpfulness was a belt under the heart and immediately made us feel welcome. The room has a beautiful view and met all our needs. We will definitely book again when we visit the Cape.
The guest house is located in the older part of Simonstad. So a very neat, peaceful place with a nice view of the harbour. I will definitely go back again.
Our money was stolen out of our bags when the staff cleaned our room. We informed the staff and nothing was done. Our towels weren't replaced with new ones. It was our honeymoon, and a stay we will always remember as a bad experience. The owner didn't even bother to assist us by sorting out the problem. If it was my guest house and guests had an issue, I would have attended immediately to sort out the problem. This is a very bad experience for us on our honeymoon, and we feel violated that the cleaning staff went through our luggage. I won't recommend this guest house to anyone because the owner didn't care at all about us.
It's really a breathtaking place to stay, really enjoyed it and the hospitality and food and service from the staff and management were top notch.
What a beautiful place with enough privacy and a fantastic view over Simonstad's harbor and the sunrise.
Mariner Guest House is beautifully situated with excellent views. The breakfast was great and the owner and staff were very helpful and friendly. I would recommend Mariner Guesthouse to anyone. Thank you very much for a wonderful weekend.
Worth visiting again.
Biggest surprise when we came in on the cool evening and saw a fireplace burning. Most beautiful view of the harbor. Had a delicious breakfast on the porch. Will definitely want to come again.
Thanks Liesel for going the extra mile!
Mariners offers a beautiful relaxed B&B option with panoramic views of the Simons Town harbour as well as False Bay. Great location to explore the southern peninsula and includes an excellent breakfast. We would recommend Mariners for any would be travellers. Compliments to the exceptionally friendly and accommodating staff.
Everything was very neat and clean, service was friendly and professional. Good location with beautiful view.
The staff was nice and professional. The view is fantastic! The rooms are neat and beautifully equipped.
I booked the "Honeymoon/Superior" suite as a surprise and treat for my wife's birthday. The room is not prepared at all as per the photo. The pillows on the bed were very uncomfortable with no candles available in the bathroom as indicated in the photos. The shower/hand wash and bath soap were all the same liquid that looked like cheap dish soap. I could not find any signal for the DSTV channels and the remote control for the TV was also not explained on arrival. However, the highlight of this visit was the breakfast which was well served and prepared.
Recommended guesthouse in Simon's Town.
Upon our arrival, Mandy greeted us and immediately made us feel very much at home. With her soft voice she let us explore the guest house. The manager was also very helpful and friendly. Our breakfast was top class and we enjoyed it on the balcony. The guest house is very nicely furnished. We will definitely stay with them again! 10 out of 10!
Great! Service excellent.
Great accommodation and outstanding service.
The guest house is very nice and the location with the view fantastic.
Good food, clean and all round a good experience.
The choice of breakfast was very cute and breakfast of a high standard. We were particularly impressed with the delicious cozy fire and hot soup in the evening with a friendly face peeking out from the kitchen. Soft music in the background and a glass of sherry in hand in the cozy romantic atmosphere is recommended. The rest of our 20th wedding anniversary will linger in our minds for a long time and next time with the Argus we will walk through Simonstad with a different look and warm heart.
Daleen, the manager, received us kindly and quickly made us feel at home. Daleen also made an effort with recommendations of excursions and restaurants. The room was very nice and clean, spacious with a beautiful view. The breakfast was delicious, fresh and fragrant. We would recommend the Mariner Guesthouse anytime!
Very friendly service, excellent facilities and very good breakfast. Will book again.
Was very happy. Everything was perfect.
I really enjoyed my stay and the wonderfull mannerisms of Mandy.
Was very professional. Rooms well equipped with excellent views. Would love to visit there again.
Nothing is too much trouble for this group of staff and managers. It was spotlessly clean, well equipped and just a pleasure to stay at home. It's one of the guest houses that I can most strongly recommend for single or family stays. Thank you!
LekkeSlaap offers quality service and meets all your needs. Great service, good communication, peace of mind guaranteed! Thank you.
We had a wonderful stay at the guesthouse. The place is beautiful and we had a wonderful time and experience in Simon's Town! Thanks for the great hospitality!
Friendly hostess. Lovely breakfast. Convenient location.
Great position and great hosts. Service was excellent!
Great customer service ever, perfect location, number 1 place to relax, peace of mind and mind cooling. If you want a great gateway you have to go to mariner guest house.
Hospitable staff who are always willing to help. The rooms are pretty, neat and clean. There is a 24 hour corner with tea, coffee and hot chocolate, which is fantastic with a fireplace fire on cold nights. The view over the naval base with all the lights is straight out of a fairy tale. The food was top notch, fresh and homemade. Will definitely stay there again.
The service is excellent. The staff is competent. I would definitely stay there again.
It was very comfortable with good service. The staff is very helpful. The food was also very nice.
Feel free to see the stars.
It was a pleasant experience that was preceded by good communication and was accompanied by a hospitable and friendly reception as well as accommodation. Thank you very much, Daleen, for your part in our special weekend! We were kindly received on arrival on Friday evening and escorted to our room. The sleep was welcome after a tiring drive. On Saturday and Sunday morning we were treated to the most delicious breakfast, prepared with great effort and served with just as much care. Daleen is a true hostess and went above and beyond to keep everyone at ease and satisfied. In fact, we didn't even know about the other guests except in the dining room. I would request that a debit card facility be introduced there as well for those who would like to pay with it.
We stayed in this B&B for 4 nights. Our experience was very nice! Everyone was very friendly, with good service! We'll certainly come back here!
Apart from the fact that it was very hot, the employees were very friendly and helpful. Would have liked just air conditioning in the room, but that's something we'll look into in the sequel before we book.
Organized. Great location right above the navy docks. Within easy reach of all attractions. At night the lights in Simon's Town are very charming.
We had a very nice stay at the B&B. Very nice view and nice place. Rooms very nice and nice stay. Simonstad is a very beautiful town.
Excellent accommodation with a beautiful view. You feel welcome and the service is friendly. Breakfast experience made personal and very tasty.
I felt very much at home in the guest house. The breakfast was delicious and the employees very helpful.
We were received very kindly. The rooms (2 rooms with a connecting door) were beautiful, clean and furnished with everything we or our children could possibly need. Will definitely stay there again when we are in the area!
Very hospitable, good customer service, tidy and good location.
Good value for money, view and quality accommodation.
It is beautiful here. The receptionist is very nice and the breakfast is delicious. Rooms are beautiful with a nice view. We were worried about the cars parked outside. Our bedding was full of marks (we don't know what it was).
Located high above Simonstad with a beautiful view of the harbor, the guest house was an excellent choice for my stay here.
The reception was friendly and the service was excellent! The accommodation borders on luxury with a nice bath for two people and a heavenly four-poster bed. The balcony offers lovely views. There are also amazing restaurants down the road, but not off the road.
Silver clean, spacious, large and modern rooms with the best view of Simonstad! Friendly help and advice via e-mail and during our stay really make you feel at home and welcome. The most delicious fresh breakfast is served on the balcony while you enjoy the sea and mountain view.
We enjoyed it very much. I will definitely go back as soon as I can. The breakfast and picnic basket are top notch.
Everything went smoothly, from the booking to the stay and breakfast and departure. Incredibly delicious Berry Bliss Pancake I will remember for a long time. Thank you!
Thank you very much! We had an amazing time at Mariner Guesthouse. Friendly service and tasty food contributed to the pleasant comfortable stay.
Our stay was lovely and Mariner provides that little extra that makes you feel cherished. Views are beautiful and the core of Simonstad is within walking distance. I will definitely use them again.
A lovely place to sleep over with a great view and an absolutely fantastic breakfast. Friendly service, super neat and fine attention to detail.
We really enjoyed our stay in the Mariner Guesthouse. The hostess was friendly and really made a lot of effort to fulfill our needs. She specially arranged a bed for our little girl and also got me gluten-free bread for breakfast at short notice. We had a great time and would love to stay in the Mariner Guesthouse again. The room and bathroom were beautiful and the room has a lovely view of Simonstad.
This is a lovely guest house. Delicious breakfast and Liezel is a very good hostess. Definitely not cheap and more aimed at the overseas market. Felt the honeymoon suite could offer more for the price I paid.
One of those places that just makes you realize how stunning our country is.
It was a very nice guest house. They made us feel at ease and tried everything to make us feel at home - will definitely recommend them to friends and family.
A very nice guest house with very professional staff who make you feel right at home. The fact that we could walk down to town to browse the shops was a big plus.
Very neat, well laid out and with a beautiful view. The staff were very helpful and I would definitely stay there again.
I can highly recommend Mariner Guest House, and therefore give it 5 stars for all 5 categories.
Perfect to relax at, and take in the surrounding beauty.
They were absolutely the nicest and most hospitable people I have met in a long time. What an "awesome" place!
My only suggestion would be to make the cost of the breakfast more variable. For example, paying R105 x 4 for each breakfast is very steep, especially when the adults in our family are not big breakfast eaters.
We stayed in room 1 which is advertised as the honeymoon suite. It was a lovely large room with four poster bed, antique furniture, own kitchenette and sitting area, and lovely spacious bathroom. The view from our balcony was beautiful. The daily breakfast was delicious from the fresh and/or stewed fruit to the specially prepared hot breakfast. The room was absolutely flawlessly cleaned and tidy every day upon our return. The calm music playing in the background throughout the sitting/dining/reception area was a bonus and definitely suited the elegant setting. Daleen was a friendly and helpful driver who repeatedly steered us in the right direction for another great day - be it the penguins, submarine tour, Cape Point or just for shopping trips. We were introduced first hand to the sound of a raging South East wind, but after the initial ferocious introduction we accepted it as part of the adventure. Mariner has style steps from the parking area to the guest house, and also between floors. It might be wise to take that into account. Mariner was a wonderful experience for us.
I have no hesitation in recommending the Mariner. Courteous and efficient service without any pressures.
Service, cuisine, facilities and cleanliness absolutely perfect. Indeed such a pleasure to have spend time at this facility!!
Beautiful location, well-equipped room, delicious breakfast, friendly and extremely helpful staff. A guest house that we can truly confidently recommend!
We had an unforgettable time at Mariner Guesthouse. Thank you to all at Mariner Guesthouse for making our stay as comfortable as possible! I will definitely recommend to anyone planning a trip to the Cape.
It is a fantastic place with a wonderful view of the sea. Great customer service and fantastic staff. Highly recommended!
It was amazing, we had a great stay.
Mariner Guesthouse was the best. We were in the Cape for 2 weeks and this was the best place we've stayed. Friendly and professional.
