Parker Cottage, 3 Carstens Street, Tamboerskloof, Cape Town (2026)

We’re a little different to the usual hotel or guesthouse experience. Rather than being just a conventional ‘place to sleep’, we offer a very much unplugged, urban retreat right in the creative heart of Cape Town. So although we offer free and fast internet, we don`t do minibars, piped music or even reception desks. We’re the kind of place where you can rediscover the art of conversation, endless breakfasts and total serenity. But Parker is a social place too: our legendary wine evenings occur at least twice a week and there’s no ‘cut off’ time for our gourmet breakfasts either.”

We are absolutely blown away by this beautiful review from our lovely guest, Lanita! Hearing that we feel like family—especially when navigating unexpected travel hiccups like cancelled flights—is exactly why we love what we do.

From our daily made-to-order breakfasts to quiet moments watching the koi fish under Table Mountain, we count ourselves incredibly lucky to share this historic slice of Tamboerskloof with you.

Thank you, Lanita, for the 5-star love! We’re already counting down the days until your next visit. ☕🍳🍊
