Beautiful guest house with everything you need! We had a great stay and the breakfast was great! Elna goes out of her way to make it as pleasant as possible for her guests. We will definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises!

Pragtige gastehuis met als wat jy nodig het! Ons het heerlik gebly en die ontbyt was wonderlik! Elna gaan uit haar pad om dit so aangenaam as moontlik vir haar gaste te maak. Ons sal definitief weer daar oorslaap indien die geleentheid opduik!

Great! Hospitality, warmth and kindness! Elna makes one's heart beat warm with her good person! Great accommodation with the most beautiful detail around every corner!

Puik! Gasvryheid, hartlikheid en vriendelikheid! Elna laat mens se hart warm klop met haar goeie mens wees! Puik akkomodasie met die mooiste detail om elke hoek en draai!

Most wonderful treat! I can't wait to return to the owner's piece of paradise in the city! What a privilege to be able to experience the beauty and tranquility of Festina Lente. Next time I aim for a whole week (or two!) in JHB, just to be able to stay here. Thank you very much, Elna!

Wonderlikste bederf! Ek kan nie wag om terug te keer na die eienaar se stukkie paradys in die stad nie! Wat 'n voorreg om die mooi en rustigheid van Festina Lente te kon beleef. Volgende keer mik ek vir 'n hele week (of twee!) in JHB, net om hier te kan bly. Baie dankie, Elna!

Fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed the stay! The room is beautiful and every detail has been given to make our stay very special. Elna made us feel very welcome. The breakfast was also delicious. We will definitely visit Festina Lente again.

Fantasties! Ons het die verblyf terdeë geniet! Die kamer is pragtig en daar is aan elke detail aandag gegee wat ons verblyf baie spesiaal gemaak het. Elna het ons baie welkom laat voel. Die ontbyt was ook heerlik. Ons sal beslis weer by Festina Lente gaan kuier.

French tranquility in the city. Incredibly neat. Reception was very friendly and hospitable. Breakfast was very nice. Will definitely recommend the place to everyone.

Franse rustigheid in die stad. Ongelooflik netjies. Ontvangs was baie vriendelik en gasvry. Ontbyt was baie lekker. Sal die plekkie definitief aanbeveel aan almal.
