The woman who checked us in was so sweet and friendly. The hotel is in a great location and has beautiful views. You also have random guests (baboons) that come to hang out with you on your deck lol.
Overlooking a beautiful swimming beach, this luxurious guesthouse lies on the outskirts of Simon’s Town and offers 10 individually decorated rooms with free parking and magnificent sea views.

The place is very cosy with an exceptional view. The penguins are right in front of the property. Also the dogs are very friendly and welcoming, really enjoy playing with them. Hoping that who stay at this property will play with them.

Beautiful town but unfortunately we were only there for one night. If you want to see the Penguins then this is the spot. Lovely harbour and plenty of restaurants as well. Lovely beach and safe area

We love Simonstown. It is so quaint and picturesque.
We love Simonstown. It is so quaint and picturesque. We love the historical buildings and the friendliness of the people. It is a wonderful tourist destination as Cape Point is nearby as well as Boulders Beach with the famous penquins. Stunning views over the bay with the pretty yachts to view.

Simon's Town is the perfect place to go to, to not be in the city, to relax and to unwind.
Boulder Beach was an exciting experience, and we truly enjoyed it.
We ate at Fran's Place on the Waterfront, and had the most delicious Seafood Platter.
The food at Willets Hotel is just as amazing!
In Sea Point, Cape Town itself, it feels unsafe to sit on the Beach for too long, but in Simon's Town we stayed on Long Beach until sunset.
It was a calming few days. Wished we could have stayed longer.

Lovely locals and felt very safe here. Fantastic spot for shopping and earthing and drinking. Drive to Cape Point and surrounding coast is amazing.
A little noisy late evening and early morning due to comings and goings with deliveries etc.

If you are looking for a peaceful place to entertain younger...
If you are looking for a peaceful place to entertain younger kids without the big commercial rush of the bigger more popular areas in Cape Town, I recommend Simons Town. So much to do with younger kids who enjoy the outdoors without the rush of a lot of people around you.
I rarely give a 10 score on my reviews, but the Willets Hotel definitely deserves it. This is beautifully renovated building with modern features, yet still retaining an early 1900s charm. Emmy and her staff are some of the most pleasant and helpful people I’ve met on this trip, the room was extremely comfortable and breakfast each morning was delicious and varied. I can’t say enough about this hotel other than if you’re going to be in Simon’s Town, I would highly recommend you stay here.
The hosts, Lizette and Tom are the most welcoming and lovely people. There were flowers and chocolate waiting for me in the room, which was well-equipped with a kettle, microwave oven etc. The setting is very pretty and location ideal = penguins are within walking distance!
I'm very glad I decided to choose this place as a starting point of my Southern African exploration. I think it was much better to come here instead of going directly to Cape Town's hustle and bustle.
Million dollar view from a huge balcony, comfortable bedrooms each with an ensuite, large lounge room and a full kitchenette.
The host was amazing, gave us lots of useful info and recommendations. We left a shirt behind when checked out, and the host rang us straight away and arranged to have the shirt dropped off to us while we were still in the neighbourhood.
Can’t fault this place, 10/10 and one of the best stays in South Africa!
I spent two weeks here while studying at SAMTRA. The apartment is a perfect location, close to the school, close to the beach with a lovely sea view and easy to get into Cape Town. The owners went out of their way to ensure I had everything for a comfortable stay including a great study desk. The bed is very comfortable and the apartment was quiet. I couldn’t recommend enough for a fantastic location both to study and access Cape Town.
It feels like you’re stepping back in time for a day or two. The older design and interior is so charming. Location itself is great, and it’s close to various restaurants and coffee shops.
Shami and the other staff members were so helpful and friendly - you guys are a great addition to the hotel!
First of all the staff hospitality was remarkable, especially the owner who came to check on our needs and comfort. Amazing front place to relax and read with the best view of the horizon. Breakfast was the best we had during the whole trip! Food was prepared fresh and in tune to our liking.
We had a lovely time here.
This is a family run Hotel and is more of a laid-back beach hotel.
The rooms are spacious and nice. Bathrooms are quite modern.
The beach is right outside the hotel and baboons are frequent visitors.
Staff, including the owners are very nice and friendly
Loved our stay at Boat House!
Beautiful location and the most relaxing morning view to wake up to.
The room was high class yet cozy, and the breakfast was the best we had in South Africa!
The hosts were very friendly and welcoming, and shared some good tips.
We definitely recommend!
The room was perfect, clean with an amazing view to the sea and even to the penguins on the beach. The staff was welcoming and very generous and the location is the best. Totally recomended when visiting Simon's Bay.
Lovely hosts, thorough communication. The area was lovely and it was such a beautiful view of Simon's Town. It is amazing on top of the mountain. The view is the best part. In the heart of nature. Had a great stay.
The view is amazing and it has the most wonderful sunrises ☀️
It is the perfect location to explore the southern part of Cape Town! The hosts were lovely and welcoming. Would definitely love to stay again.
Amazing views, stylish apartment, safe neighborhood. It was one of the best places I've ever stayed in(and I've stayed in hundreeds of hotels and bnbs). I hope to return someday to Quarterdeck.
The location is good & it will be best if you can offer breakfast. other than that everything is fine.
service is the best. View is nice and it is well located and family friendly
Amazing location, with a outstanding view from the rooms. very good breakfast, efficient staff and absolutely lovely owners. a great experience in our trip in Cape Town.
