Welcome was great and Emmy is fantastic. Breakfast really good. Not an issue with room noise and it is on the street so it is to be expected. All staff very friendly and happy to help. Litte touches always go a far way - petals and strawberries on bed for celebration of our anniversary.

Located at Boulders Beach with its famous penguin colony, Boulders Beach Hotel, Cafe and Curio shop offers en-suite rooms, just 2 km outside of Simon’s Town.

We arrived very late for check in and the team were so helpful. They left me a note on the door with instructions find my room and where the keys were. It’s also a stunning place to stay and a 3 minute walk to the penguins.

Residence William French, hotel in Simonʼs Town

Located 600 metres from Frank's Beach, Residence William French offers pool with a view, a garden and air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi.

From the moment you arrive William and his staff make you feel at home. All of the rooms in the property are very spacious and beautifully decorated we were very lucky and upgraded on our last night to the honeymoon suite which is out of this world. As we arrived after a long day we took William’s gracious invitation and stayed in for dinner which I can only describe as a private dining experience never to be forgotten. We had breads and dips for starters all homemade followed by line caught fish then desert. William also has a very good selection of wines to choose from at very reasonable prices. The following morning we had fresh brewed coffee and tea before a large selection of breakfast items. We spent the day exploring the Cape and on our return opted again to stay in and eat with another fantastic meal share with other guests. I cannot recommend Residence William French highly enough. From location as the nearest for the Cape to being next to Boulders Bay for the penguins. Exquisite rooms and fine dining. Thank you so much William and ladies.

Moonglow Guesthouse, hotel in Simonʼs Town

Situated on the slopes of the Glencairn Mountains, Moonglow offers spacious rooms with a balcony overlooking False Bay. It features an outdoor terrace and a lounge with a bar.

What a lovely guesthouse. The views. The room. The comfy bed. Gillian is a superb host - so attentive, polite and what a breakfast she cooks! I enjoyed using the light and airy communal area to catch up on work during the day - the views from the office were pretty epic that day. This place is conveniently located between Kalk Bay and Simon's Town where I ate at some superb restaurants. There's also a handy mini mall with two supermarkets, just a short walk away.

    Beautiful town but unfortunately we were only there for one night. If you want to see the Penguins then this is the spot. Lovely harbour and plenty of restaurants as well. Lovely beach and safe area

    We love Simonstown. It is so quaint and picturesque. We love the historical buildings and the friendliness of the people. It is a wonderful tourist destination as Cape Point is nearby as well as Boulders Beach with the famous penquins. Stunning views over the bay with the pretty yachts to view.

    Simon's Town is the perfect place to go to, to not be in the city, to relax and to unwind. Boulder Beach was an exciting experience, and we truly enjoyed it. We ate at Fran's Place on the Waterfront, and had the most delicious Seafood Platter. The food at Willets Hotel is just as amazing! In Sea Point, Cape Town itself, it feels unsafe to sit on the Beach for too long, but in Simon's Town we stayed on Long Beach until sunset. It was a calming few days. Wished we could have stayed longer.

    Lovely locals and felt very safe here. Fantastic spot for shopping and earthing and drinking. Drive to Cape Point and surrounding coast is amazing. A little noisy late evening and early morning due to comings and goings with deliveries etc.

    If you are looking for a peaceful place to entertain younger kids without the big commercial rush of the bigger more popular areas in Cape Town, I recommend Simons Town. So much to do with younger kids who enjoy the outdoors without the rush of a lot of people around you.

    Hosts were amazing! Belinda become our mum away from home - always looking after us in the form of freshly baked cookies, occasional chocolate drop off's and constant updates about everything going on in the area.. This Greek Mommy has all the best restaurant spots (obviously) so do not hesitate to ask her opinion on things - You can tell she loves and cares for her guests and will go out of her way to ensure they have a memorable stay. :) Would recommend this spot to anyone visiting Simons Town - You won't be disappointed.

    Very special place. The two managers do really everything they can do to make your stay enjoyable. There are so many little details that make this hotel special. Apart from the room there is plenty of ways to hang out - such as at the billard room or in the common room on the top floor. Wifi is fast, breakfast is sumptous, location offers great views over the bay from every room. A unique place - compared to centre of Cape Town at a fair price.

    We were birding around Cape Town with a day-long pelagic (boat trip to the continental slope 25 miles offshore). A very early start on Saturday and very tired at end of day, made staying next to the Simon's Town harbor a must. The aha Quayside is clean and quiet, restaurant downstairs had good food and great views of harbor.

    We had a lovely time here. This is a family run Hotel and is more of a laid-back beach hotel. The rooms are spacious and nice. Bathrooms are quite modern. The beach is right outside the hotel and baboons are frequent visitors. Staff, including the owners are very nice and friendly

    This hotel was literally next to the penguins beach! We saw quite a few penguins just outside while having breakfast and walking and that was amazing! They even did our laundry free of charge. Best stay if you love penguins and want to be close to them!
