Delightful stay. My partner and I were looking for somewhere special to stay for the night. Carmichael House proved to be a wonderful choice. The room was warm and spacious and we were treated to a delightful breakfast in the morning. The hosts were very friendly and we loved their adorable dachshunds, Ceasar and Réglisse.

The experience was not worth the money. We were three mature ladies who went to celebrate a very special occasion together in the Cape. The room we booked where 3 people could be together was really beautiful! Unfortunately we had to carry our own bags up the stairs and also down again when we left, I would expect them to do this service. Our room was furnished with three beds, but everything else in the room was for 2 people. We had to decide who would drink tea and who would drink coffee. There were only 2 Japanese. All the power plugs didn't work, and we had to scramble to get things plugged into power points that did work. The breakfast was cold every morning by the time we got it, and our experience was that the hostess was not happy when we asked to warm up some of the food. The place is beautiful but the price does not justify the cold food, no one carrying bags and that there were only coffee facilities set up for 2 people, I think we must have paid for 3.

Die ervaring was nie die geld werd nie. Ons was drie volwasse dames wat saam 'n baie besondere geleentheid gaan vier het in die Kaap. Die kamer wat ons bespreek het waar 3 mense saam kon wees, was regtig pragtig! Ongelukkig moes ons ons eie tasse by die trappe opdra en ook weer afdra toe ons vertrek, ek sou verwag dat hulle hierdie diens doen. Ons kamer was ingerig met drie beddens, maar alles anders in die kamer was vir 2 mense. Ons moes besluit wie gaan tee drink en wie gaan koffie drink. Daar was slegs 2 Japonne. Al die kragproppe het nie gewerk nie, en moes ons rondskarrel om dinge ingeprop te kry by kragpunte wat wel werk. Die ontbyt was elke oggend koud by die tyd wat ons dit gekry het, en ons ervaring was dat die gasvrou nie gelukkig was toe ons vra om van die kos warm te maak nie. Die plek is pragtig maar die prys regverdig nie die koue kos, niemand wat tasse dra en dat daar net vir 2 mense koffie fasiliteite reggemaak was nie, ek voel ons het mos vir 3 betaal.

Dear Riana, We value our guests' comments, even if they are critical, as it helps us improve our service, but that's provided they are fair. We did our best to allow you an early check-in since one of you was leaving the hospital. I carried her luggage up, leaving the two of you with cabin bags to bring one floor up. Your Family Suite has inter-leading bedrooms and can sleep up to four adults sharing. It was geared for 3 adults with 3 sets of everything, from the towel sets to the glasses & cups. This is checked before check-in. You are correct; during load shedding, none of the power points work, yet all lights in the common areas, the bedrooms & bathrooms, and the Wi-Fi still work as they are on an inverter. We are currently looking at going completely off-grid with a solar option. For breakfast, we do ask our guests who want tea or coffee so that we can serve them accordingly. We bring freshly baked French croissants with butter & homemade jams, and unless you arrive at 07h AM for breakfast, they won't be hot out of the oven. For your information, unless they are baked with ham & cheese, in France, these are usually eaten with butter & jam or honey, and unless you happen to be there as soon as they come out of the oven, or around 04h30AM, you'll never find them hot. This delicate product loses most of its taste and appeal if reheated in the oven. It's even worse in the microwave. I guess that comments like yours give more credit to the vast majority of excellent ones that one can find on large online platforms.

Liewe Riana, Ons waardeer ons gaste se kommentaar, al is dit krities, want dit help ons om ons diens te verbeter, maar dit is mits dit regverdig is. Ons het ons bes gedoen om u vroegtydig te laat inklok aangesien een van u die hospitaal verlaat het. Ek het haar bagasie opgedra en julle twee met kajuitsakke gelaat om een verdieping op te bring. Jou gesinssuite het tussendeur-slaapkamers en slaapplek vir tot vier volwassenes wat deel. Dit was gerat vir 3 volwassenes met 3 stelle van alles, van die handdoekstelle tot die glase en koppies. Dit word voor inklok nagegaan. Jy is korrek; tydens beurtkrag werk nie een van die kragpunte nie, tog werk alle ligte in die gemeenskaplike areas, die slaapkamers en badkamers, en die Wi-Fi steeds soos dit op 'n omskakelaar is. Ons kyk tans daarna om heeltemal van die netwerk af te gaan met 'n sonkragopsie. Vir ontbyt vra ons wel ons gaste wat tee of koffie wil hê sodat ons hulle daarvolgens kan bedien. Ons bring varsgebakte Franse croissants met botter en tuisgemaakte konfyte, en tensy jy om 07:00 opdaag vir ontbyt, sal hulle nie warm uit die oond wees nie. Vir jou inligting, tensy dit met ham en kaas gebak word, in Frankryk, word dit gewoonlik met botter en konfyt of heuning geëet, en tensy jy toevallig daar is sodra hulle uit die oond kom, of omstreeks 04h30, jy' sal hulle nooit warm vind nie. Hierdie delikate produk verloor die meeste van sy smaak en aantrekkingskrag as dit weer in die oond verhit word. Dit is nog erger in die mikrogolf. Ek dink opmerkings soos joune gee meer krediet aan die oorgrote meerderheid uitstekendes wat 'n mens op groot aanlynplatforms kan kry.

Just a pleasure. The owners are the friendliest and most involved people I have ever come across. We really enjoyed our stay incredibly much. The guesthouse is beautiful, clean and incredibly user-friendly. Nothing is too much trouble for the owners - they understand customer service. This is truly a guest house that I would recommend!

Net 'n plesier. Die eienaars is die vriendelikste en mees betrokke mense wat ek nog teëgekom het. Ons het werklik ons verblyf ongelooflik baie geniet. Die gastehuis is beautiful, skoon en ongelooflik gebruikers-vriendelik. Niks is vir die eienaars te veel om te doen nie - hulle verstaan kliëntediens. Dit is werklik 'n gastehuis wat ek sal aangebeveel!

Expected more for what we paid. Parking inside the premises is a big problem. Breakfast was delicious and they are very hospitable and interested in their customers. The room was very small and the geyser's pressure gauge is a problem: burned a few times when other taps were open while showering!

Het meer verwag vir wat ons betaal het. Parkering binne in die perseel is 'n groot probleem. Ontbyt was heerlik en hulle is baie gasvry en stel belang in hulle kliënte. Die kamer was baie klein en die geyser se drukmeter is 'n probleem: het 'n paar keer gebrand as ander krane oopgemaak was terwyl jy stort!
