The team here is incredible! They were so welcoming and kind to us, perfect start to our trip! Technically there's no included breakfast but the snacks they provide in the sea overviewing Cafeitiria was more than enough for us. They even suggest to make your coffee and it's really good! The rooms are new, clean and very spacious! Also, make sure you go to the 5th floor and the lounge on the 4th for some panaromic views!

I highly recommend Ami Vine House for a fantastic stay! The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring every aspect of our visit was perfect. The room was comfortable and offered a cozy retreat after a day out. The location couldn't be better, situated in a lovely neighborhood within walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and market. It was the perfect spot for both relaxation and exploration. I had a wonderful experience and am already looking forward to my next visit. Ami Vine House is truly a gem!

We stayed for one night. They met us right at the building entrance and accompanied us to the reception floor. We had a late check-in, and everything went smoothly. The room was just WOW! Huge, with lots of different lighting options, blackout curtains, and an absolutely stunning view of the mountains and the city. The room had everything we needed: full set of dishes, hairdryer, towels, toiletries, tea and coffee. The design was stylish and modern. Breakfast was absolutely incredible — insanely delicious, like WOW-level amazing! The shared spaces were also great: coworking area, pool, and a coffee shop — all very cool. Strong recommendation! The staff were lovely, the Wi-Fi was fast, and the location is perfect — lots of delivery options nearby that work even late at night.

Suite was comfortable, pool looked great but too cold to use it. Lovely grounds. Breakfast was good, ate there on first evening and it was delicious. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. We used the shuttle service both to the V&A and Kirstenbosch and it worked very well. Communication was excellent. Would definitely stay again.
