Parker Cottage is a very cute B&B located near some great restaurants. What really sets it apart are the staff. Extremely friendly, any questions before or during your stay are answered very quickly, and they do very much care about how your stay goes. And, like other guests have noted, the breakfast is delicious.

Parker Cottage is hands-down one of the best guest houses / B&Bs I've ever stayed at in this whole wide world, and there have been quiet a few. Pamela and her amazing team provide outstanding hospitality on ever level. The rooms are very individual and all are not just beautiful but very comfortable, super clean and nicely appointment. The services provided are spot on ... from flawless airport transfer to many tips on offer what to do, how to get there, what's safe (and what is not), and special local gems ... then there is also very affordable laundry ... as well as baggage storage, useful to organize between segments of a trip. There is also a free tea station for a hot drink during the day, to take in one of the lovely sitting areas in-doors or on the verandah outdoors, overlooking the splendid gardens. Last but not least ... the breakfast. A multi-course feast freshly made that is super tasty and very generous in portion sizes. Really sets you up for a day sightseeing in Cape Town. I already look forward to going back to Parker Cottage ... its just such a special place. P.S. Special neighborhood tip. For food souvenirs ... go to the Olive Brand Deli ... Lifestyle on Kloof Centre, Gardens, 50 Kloof St ... a short walk away from Parker Cottage. It's a most beautiful shops! Ask for the owner Omeros ... one of the nicest people you'll ever meet ... and he will walk you through the options. P.P.S. If you are looking for a guide to explore the many hiking trails in and around Cape Town (and in the Cape area further afield), I highly recommend Justin Hawthorne (good him with name and South Africa Mountain Guide).

I cannot rate this highly enough.It is conveniently situated in a safe feeling neighbourhood in Cape Town. Our room was lovely an spacious and very clean. It has its own garden that you can sit out in and a veranda where you can take breakfast. The breakfast is very good ,ordered from one of the staff. It is run by Pamela and Phaedra who are most welcoming and could not do enough for you. They arranged our airport transfer and a day trip to cape point which was marvellous. It is a small guest house with a family feel not an anonymous big chain hotel group and that was its charm for us. I would not hesitate in recommending it.

The house is beautifully appointed with lovely art and antiques. Also it’s in a fantastic location. Absolutely spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. Wonderful breakfasts on the terrace and very kind owners. Will definitely return ❤️

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at Parker Cottage. The staff was wonderful and the breakfast on the front porch was delightful. South Africa experiences rolling blackouts, but Parker Cottage has solar power to cover the outages. Lots of food and coffee options within a couple blocks of the B&B.

We have stayed at Parker cottage many times. I cannot image being anywhere else when I come to Cape Town! Every staff member is friendly and helpful. Delightful cozy beds that always render a good nights sleep. Wonderful morning breakfast on the terrace. Always a great recommendation for a restaurant. Pure joy!

Sadly we were only at Parker Cottage for one night before our flight back to the UK. It was a fabulous place. The room was beautifully decorated and the breakfast was delicious. I would definitely recommend and am hoping to go back again for longer next time. Pamela was a fantastic host and very helpful.

A wonderful guesthouse in a quiet leafy street within walking distance of the centre of capetown. It’s a little haven of peace set in lovely gardens where an excellent breakfast is served with such attention to detail and professionalism and lovely smiles. Pamela, Tomas, Jameson and all the staff look after your every need and are so welcoming. We can’t wait to return next year .
