Fabulous place wit a great location.

Great location, great, helpful staff and great facilities. Beautiful views out over the Atlantic to the west for fabulous sunsets at the front and Table Mountain to the rear. A short 5 min walk to the beach and restaurants at Camps Bay. We loved our stay at 3 on Camps Bay. The free coffee and pastries in the afternoon and the honesty bar were a big bonus.
Thank you 3 on Camps Bay team, we will be back!!

Property is amazing. Nice and quiet in a safe area . Staff amazing . Nice sun set view ..it's not like a hotel . This is is an elagant VRBO style home 🏡 . 10 minutes walk to the town . Easy to park , easy to get Uber . Best dinning areas are 10 minutes away from drive from the place . All restaurants you need to book in advance . I would say here again .

The most beautiful place I have ever traveled to and stayed at. MacDonald who worked at the residence was kind, soft spoken and informative

I can not believe how beautiful 3 On Camps Bay was! I have traveled the world and have never come across a place like this. I traveled with my husband for his 50th Bday. Very easy to move around as a tourist.

Location with a view

Loved the location - few mins walk to the beach but set a street or two back. Lovely to walk through the streets and admire properties. Didn’t use the pool but loved the balconies around the property. Our room was huge and comfortable. Areas of the property looked a little tired - communal areas like the corridors and our bathroom which was a little Disappointing for what we paid. However, I would stay there again and recommend it. Free breakfast was great and service lovely.

Mixed experience

Decent enough guest house. My room was disappointing as it was right by the breakfast room and this disturbed from around 630am each day (I also didn’t get the sense that the place was full so was unclear why a better room wasn’t allocated). Finally, the booking conditions advertised on this website did not match up with those management tried to impose. Specifically, the hotels.com advert advertised a 50 percent charge for any changes made after a particular date and prior to check in. Despite this clearly advertise condition, the hotel have consistently tried to impose a full charge for a change made a week prior to check which is frankly disgraceful.

Marcell, the manager, was very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast staff were also great and all very nice. Breakfast itself was good, selection of continental options as well as a hot breakfast. The property is in a great location and the communal living areas very comfortable.
Having stayed at the property now, I would perhaps have chosen a different room type however at £200 per night our room was already fairly pricey (room 6). The room needed updating slightly. Our room was big enough however being on the ground floor we had to keep our curtains shut a lot so that people sunbathing outside could not see in, so it was a little dark.
Our stay was part of a trip for my partner’s 30th birthday so we were provided with a bottle of champagne upon our arrival which was lovely. However upon checking out, we discovered that we had been charged for this which we were a little surprised about (but paid anyway).
Overall we had a nice stay and the location was great but perhaps the room could have been updated slightly and the “complimentary” bottle of champagne actually complimentary

Superb views over Camps Bay

We enjoyed 4 superb nights at this exquisite hotel. All the hotel staff were incredibly friendly and helpful; indeed nothing was too much trouble. Marcell was an outstanding host and we were made to feel very welcome throughout our stay. The rooms are delightful and very clean. The hotel has a couple of areas to relax, downstairs in the breakfast area and outside by the pool and the upstairs main room which has incredible sunset views looking down on Camps Bay. We enjoyed being away from the hustle and bustle of the main strip in Camps Bay and the short stroll up the hill back to the hotel was only 10 minutes. All in all a very well run establishment run by a dedicated and passionate team. Thank you...we will be back!

Wonderful hotel close to the beavh

We initially booked a room for 3 nights and ended up staying a week. We found it to be the perfect location. Close to the beach and restaurants and the hop on and hop off bus gave us many options for going places without a car. Hotel served a wonderful breakfast, had really great wi fi everywhere and awesome views of Table mountain and the beach. Perfect place to stay

Good setting

Great setting, good public areas, ten minute walk to beach and restaurants.
Our room was comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed BUT it was tucked away with no sea views and in sharp contrast to all the images offered for this boutique hotel!
Breakfasts, whilst complimentary, were disappointing in quality, portion size and heat. As a consequence, we had only three in our seven night stay.

Fabulous quiet location

We arrived early and received a very warm welcome from both owner George and manager Freddie. They ensured our room was ready for immediate occupancy. Throughout our two night stay all staff were both friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean, well equipped and with a very comfortable bed. The room we stayed in had a fabulous table mountain view, with a balcony overlooking a manicured private garden. The air conditioning unit was very effective and had a quiet mode. A useful small fridge in a cupboard. There is a panoramic lounge on the top floor and a another lounge by the dining area below, where you can relax either in or outside enjoying the sea views. There is a small pool and sunbathing area. An honesty bar with great variety of drinks/snacks and cutlery/crockery/beverages/homemade muffins in abundant supply. The area is very secure, safe and has on site parking which can be a problem with some accommodation in Camps Bay. Being slightly elevated from Camps Bay beach lends the location to a superior view and lower noise pollution giving a more relaxed stay. Several very good restaurants are within walking distance. We met our other charming host Maria on check out and she confirmed during their closure times they continue maintenance updates to maintain these very high standards. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Fabulous stay

We had a lovely staff at 3 on Camps Bay, the staff were incredibly helpful with Marcel advising and booking several trips for us. The location was fantastic a short walk from bustling, cosmopolitan Camps Bay with its lovely beach, bars and restaurants. Breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. The rooms were spotless and well equipped, the only downside being our room at the back of the house was a bit small and dark, though as we were only sleeping there this dude didn't detract from a wonderful stay.

Excellent stay in a great location

This is a very well-run guest-house within a short walk from the beaches, bars and restaurants in Camps Bay near Cape Town. The walk back is 10 minutes up a small hill but is quite fine for most people - not if you have walking difficulties.

There is a very high level of comfort and cleanliness in the rooms, bathrooms and all the common areas, and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

We had a very enjoyable time at 3 on Camp's Bay and would have no hesitation in staying there again.

Fantastic hotel, with friendly staff. We had a garden room which was big and roomy. Each night there was a little treat to come home too on your bed! Breakfast was delicious with lots of options. It was a 15 minute walk down to town (probably 20 minutes back up hill!) where there is the beach and great bars and restaurants. It's very easy to stay at the hotel though and enjoy the sun terrace and plunge pool. It surpassed our expectations.

Great hotel in a great location!!

My husband and I had the pleasure of spending 6 days at 3 on Camps Bay on a recent trip to Cape Town. It is a wonderful property with exceptional service and a fantastic breakfast to start your day. The staff went out of their way to make our stay a pleasant one and they certainly succeeded. The views to the sea from the common areas are stunning. We were in a room at the back of the property which had a small balcony facing Table Mountain and the Twelve Apostles. While we would have preferred a sea view and a slightly larger room, it did not diminish our pleasure at staying in this lovely, well cared for property.

A bit of luxury

We loved staying at this hotel. The manager called it a house and it certainly felt like you were staying in a place that felt like home. Every detail was catered for. You could go and sit on the terrace and help yourself to a beer or bottle of wine from the fridge, (this is called the Honesty Bar, as you have to log what you have and then they charge you the bill but it is minimal) dip in the plunge pool or just relax and enjoy the view or watch the sunset. The setting and the scenery around the hotel is to die for. Breakfast was abundant and very fresh. I can honestly say that I have never had fruit on a holiday abroad that included strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and mango. The room we stayed in was very comfortable but we saw some other rooms that were very luxurious and large and some had private access to the terrace or had private kitchen and catering facilities. There was a penthouse suite too that we were able to use if not privately booked. An amazing experience staying at this hotel.

Must be best hotel in Camps Bay ..... Stay here.

Where to start is a challenge. I have travelled for years as have the privilege of working in the travel industry. 3 on Camps Bay, with its intimate and exceptional team make this very special place one to never forget and one to return to.
The house is extraordinarily beautiful. High quality spec and feels like home .... you are certainly treated like family and every member of the team were very special people people. Marcell is one of life's amazing humans who is not only exceptional at his job (GM) but has heaps of EQ and makes everyone feel incredibly comfortable. He is a consumate professional, top of his game with a very impressive professional profile which makes 3 on Camps Bay very lucky to have him. His respect of his gorgeous team and the lovely house owners is tangible and makes the whole experience feel very 'boutique' which this house most definately is.
The views are breathtaking with direct view of the Atlantic Seaboard, Table Mountain and the 12 Apostles. It's like being slap bang in the middle of a postcard!
Breakfast ..... amazing. Especially menu 4.
Honesty bar ..... incredible. Bottle of Porcupine SB same price as bottle of water here. Seriously.
Lillian is one of the the most lovely ladies I have met but all the team were.
Camps Bay is like Monaco, St. Clair, Nice ( but friendlier, less faf and much much cheaper) .... it is safe, beautiful and clean and very cosmopolitan.
Go to Camps Bay and do not stay anywhere else.
