I stayed here for one night to be close to my Cape Town office. The service was great. I was in Room 7, beautiful views. It was a cold week in Cape Town and very windy. The room was spacious and warm. The bedding was very comfortable. Jasmin was incredible, I order uber eats for dinner and she collected and brought to my room. She accommodate all my vegetarian requests for breakfast.

My stay at De Molen was for one night in April and I was very pleased with all aspects. I arrived late which was not a problem except there is a late arrival charge of R75 which was one downside.

The apartment (for 2) was very much as advertised: spacious and with an enjoyable outside sitting area, with a complete kitchen. Very quiet, allowed excellent views of the mountains at the back and in the East. Conveniently close to Strand, not far from Stellenbosch, Cape Town and the airport.
