Posted on Tripadvisor robertbrooks7March 24, 2026Verified A welcoming, homely, colonial-style guesthouse What a lovely place the Grosvenor is. We arrived a little earlier than our check-in time stated but we were greeted very warmly by one of our hosts Jonathan who helped us up the steep entrance stairs with our suitcase to our room. The property is on a private road just off the main road and was quiet and peaceful. Parking is in a bay at the front of the property. The property and decor was eclectic and fresh and had a lovely seaside ambience. Our room and bathroom was very spacious and comfortable and had all we needed and more for a very pleasant stay. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the bedding bright and fresh. A nice touch was the complementary bottle of wine left for us on the table. We enjoyed that! At breakfast we met our other host Sue who was also genuinely friendly and welcoming even though at the time she was having a mini crisis dealing with a malfunctioning boiler. Breakfast was a relaxed affair on a lovely veranda overlooking Simon's Town naval base. There were cold and hot choices for breakfast and the hot breakfast was freshly cooked to order. Very tasty and generous as well. A short walk downhill got us to Simon's Town where we enjoyed a few drinks and some lovely food at The Smokehouse & Brewery. A taxi back at night would be advisable as the roads are dark and steep. Safe to walk around but keep an eye out for the baboons as they stroll into town in the evening! We are more than happy to recommend The Grosvenor and thank you to Jonathan and Sue for making our stay so pleasant.Posted on Tripadvisor jap1023March 10, 2026Verified Excellent views massive room attentive hosts Breakfast overlooking the sea was brilliant , nice big room attentive ,little treats good choice for breakfast Only one thing quite a few steps to the premises which can’t be helped if you want the view, it didn’t bother us and Johnathan took our cases up You must go to long beachPosted on Tripadvisor 478guestg12345February 15, 2026Verified Heavenly stay in Simon's Town If you want to escape to a place with all the comforts you need; peace and quiet yet close to places of interest, shops and restaurants; most helpful staff; spectacular views and parking, this is it. I recommend Grosvenor Guest House for short or long stays. The communication with the hst was also great.Posted on Tripadvisor Tracy HJanuary 14, 2026Verified Lovely comfortable room with great view Had a great stay - we had room with balcony was lovely to sit out on. Had a great night sleep and breakfast was good in the morning.Posted on Tripadvisor 1887holgerNovember 24, 2025Verified Wunderbar und immer wieder Die Lage ist optimal. Es gibt großartige Restaurants in der Nähe, Pinguinkolonie, Hafen und das Kap sind zu Fuß oder mit dem Auto sehr schnell zu erreichen. Das Frühstück war sehr fein, der Service und die Freundlichkeit vorbildhaft.Posted on Tripadvisor winnie rNovember 18, 2025Verified Excellent stay We stayed for four nights in beautiful sea facing rooms. Sue and her team were helpful and went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. Breakfasts on the balcony were a delight. Only slight drawback is there are a lot of steps which might be troublesome for some people. However they are worth climbing for the view 😀. Thank you for a lovely stay.Posted on Tripadvisor cedwar745081November 10, 2025Verified A Hidden Gem This place is amazing from amenities, staff Jonathon , Zandi and Sue who were hands on , Adult only property 😀 Room 4 has fabulous views.

The view from our room is sublime.Posted on Tripadvisor Nicole COctober 18, 2025Verified Cute ocean view accommodation Very lovely stay with nice well-lit and spacious rooms, in very close proximity to Boulders Beach and a 5 minute drive to the port, where we found nice restaurants for dinner. It was our honeymoon and we were treated to champagne and fresh flowers which were a very lovely surprise. Staff very helpful and accommodating. They helped us carry our luggage up the stairs and we had a wonderful breakfast on their deck. Would definitely recommend!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
