With all the choices that Cape Town has to offer, I will not be staying here again. Between the lack of hospitality from the owner, terrible internet, very limited TV, and no real amenities, I would not recommend this guest house. The location is great and the house has been restored to a high quality, but there are much better places to choose from in this magical city.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review ,although not as positive as from our usually satisfied guests .If I offended you by showing my annoyance after waiting for your arrival for more than 2 hours I apologize. I am sorry that you could not make use of our wi fi even after we had our technician come to Barry Hall, as we had no problem in any of our other apartments..

Nice clean place, difficult check-in
Found the facility nice and location fine but the owner abrasive and not very helpful. Also, no one there to help with check-in so the codes and keybox all has to be sorted via phone call -- not very reassuring for checking into a place for the first time. Difficult process and not something I'd like to repeat -- though once we settled into the apartment it was a nice facility. A little cold in winter (heat does not work very well), but overall satisfactory.

When driving to Cape Town from another City it is almost impossible to give exact arrival time, we therefor make flexible arrangements with the guest's prior consent. It is unfortunate that this guest found it too difficult.

Feel like home!
It was quite a pleasant stay. We stayed there for 6 nights and really fell in love with the apartment. We had room 1 which was a 3 bedroom on the ground floor. The garden was full of fragrant blooms both in front and back of the house (we stayed there in October). The layout of the apartment and furnishing were good. Kitchen were well equipped and spacious. There were 3 bathroom in total, 1 in the master bedroom, 1 shower only and 1 bath/toilet. However one bathroom door in the common area was difficult to close so it made loud noise every time someone closed/opened that room(esp when someone else was sleeping). Sometimes we heard loud foot steps above our head too. But all in all it is very good experience, good location.

4 days in Sea Point
The Barry Hall Apartments are in a good location next to Main rd in Sea Point where you can find shops, restaurants and a public swimming pool in walking distance. The rooms were spacious. One problem is the area for car parking. It's hardly enough space to park 4 cars (and if so, the car first in cant get out anymore).

A great find and sad to leave
We stayed in the cottage at the Barry Hall Apartments. The place is adorable and very well kept. The location is perfect as we could walk to the supermarket, shops, restaurants, and the promenade and pretty much anywhere. It is very centrally located but quiet and peaceful. The staff are terrific and friendly. We rented a car and parking was never a problem, we either parked inside the gate or on the street. I highly recommend this place.

Super service og hyggelig lejlighed
Super god service og velkomst fra værtinde, hvor vi fik lov til at blive aftenen på vores afrejsedag. Hyggelig rummelig lejlighed. Fodkoldt i det første døgn, indtil lejligheden blev varmet igennem. Larm fra det store bygningsarbejde på nabogrunden var højere og i længere tid end forventet, men de holdt heldigvis fri om søndagen.

Godt at hore at I noed jeres lejlighed. Nu var I jo I Cape Town paa vor midt vinter saa det er muligt at det vil tage nogen tid at varme lejligheden op, Byggegrunden ved siden af vor bygning er heldigvis mindre larmene end tidligere idet de er kommet saa langt at det nu kun er byggeri/konstruktion og ikke udgravning laengere. Mens udgravningen stod paa valgte vi at lukke nogle af vore lejligheder I lang tid. for at formindre ubehagelighed.

Bo här!
En pärla i Sea Point. Rita mötte upp och visade runt; därefter fanns hon tillgänglig på telefon och mejl för tips, råd och hjälp (villket vi inte behövde).

Sehr nettes Appartment mit Atmosphäre
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Vermieterin haben wir nur kurz bei der Anreise getroffen.

씨포인트 넓은방
들어갔는데 아파트 한칸을 빌려주는거더라고요. 한층이 두 아파트로 나눠져 있습니다. 생각보다 넓어 놀랐습니다. 거실도 넓고, 발코니, 주방, 화장실2개, 방2개였습니다. 시트같은것도 깨끗하고 인테리어도 여기저기 주인이 신경쓴 부분이 보였습니다. 물이 좀 더 잘나왔으면 하는 생각은 들었네요. 샴푸나 비누같은건 없습니다. 위치는 씨포인트에 있고 가까운 곳에 대형 슈퍼마켓과 바다를 끼고있는 야외수영장이 있어 이용했습니다 (입장료 몇천원). 바다물은 차가워서 수영장이 낫더라고요.
