I had a wonderful stay at Carmichael House Boutique Hotel. The hosts, Yves and Valerie, made me feel incredibly welcome and provided great tips for exploring Cape Town. The beautiful Victorian-style house and well-kept garden were a treat to enjoy each morning with a delicious breakfast featuring homemade jams. The only downside was the slightly farther location from the waterfront, but I found it perfect for my needs. 🌺😊
