About Rosedene

On the slopes of Table Mountain in the upper part of vibrant Kloof Street, Rosedene Guest House, originally a rose farm dating back to 1865, is today a restored Victorian villa with warm colonial charm. In the heart of Cape Town, a stone’s throw from trendy Kloof and Long Streets, and just 10 minutes to the V&A Waterfront. Tuck into a delicious English breakfast each morning where you’ll enjoy freshly baked croissants and muffins daily, beneath the gaze of iconic Table Mountain. The glass-enclosed veranda is great for relaxing in the warmth of the sun’s rays while the splash pool is ideal for afternoon dips on warm summer days, with the citrus scent of lemons floating by from the gardens. Ten rooms upstairs exude a stylish African country feel, most with wrap-around bay windows affording stunning views of Table Mountain and Lion’s Head from the comfort of your bed. All rooms feature WiFi, air-conditioning, minibar, Dstv, safe and tea & coffee facilities. The spacious, open-plan suite downstairs has a separate entrance near the splash pool, and four two-bedroom heritage cottages offer self-catering with a rustic, farm-style charm together with a deck or garden, ideal for families. Dedicated to customer service, expect a warm welcome and an attentive stay at this urban escape.

Portfolio Expert Review
"Originally a rose farm on the slopes of Table Mountain, I could sense the history, charm and character here. From the creaking warm wood floors, glorious mountain views framed in wraparound bay windows, to the fragrant lemon trees in the garden. The glass-enclosed verandah is a cosy sun trap on a winter’s day, so enticing, as is the smell of freshly baked croissants and muffins."

GUEST HOUSE - HIGGOVALE
"Rosedene Guest House offers a welcoming 'home from home' feel, complete with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Originally a rose farm on the slopes below Table Mountain dating back to the 1800s, there are ten rooms in the main house, a detached suite over-looking the plunge pool and four two-bedroom cottages. The courtyard and garden setting create a tranquil 'village like' feel despite the urban location. Situated on trendy Kloof Street and close to Long and Bree Streets, a range of restaurants, bars and shops are at your fingertips. Enjoy magnificent views of Table Mountain, Lion's Head, Signal Hill and Table Bay. Only 10 minutes from the V&A Waterfront, with easy access to the rest of the Peninsula, Winelands and Garden Route, this is an ideal place to stay for business or pleasure. Full English and Continental breakfasts served daily | Children welcome."
