"My maid of honour and I stayed at Paradiso the night before my wedding, and I could not have picked better accommodation. Melody took amazing care of us, attended to our every need, and was extremely patient with all the people coming and going from the room (photographers, make-up and hair ladies, family etc.). The room is gorgeous, as is the outside area - beautiful pool and lovely flowers everywhere. Breakfast was also amazing. Thank you so much Melody!"

A big thank you to all the staff at Paradiso. When I am in the area again this will certainly be my first choice. No more net surfing to find accommodation in and around Constantia!"


"Home from home"

(South Africa) Judy strydom

"It was our second stay at Paradiso and we would love to stay again on our next trip to Cape Town. As usual Melody and Cindy were wonderful, we feel like extended family. Everything is handled with the minimum fuss and friendliness - still the best B&B in the Cape."

Just a little surprised that the apartment was 3km away from the hosts and the other rooms, and maybe this should be explained during the booking process. Not that it made any difference anyway....I would v..."

Just a little surprised that the apartment was 3km away from the hosts and the other rooms, and maybe this should be explained during the booking process. Not that it made any difference anyway....I would very much recommend this for 2 to 4 people. Nice and close to all amenities but quiet enough to sleep well!

"Better Than I Could Have Hoped For!"

"Melody & Leonard are wonderful hosts for visitors to Cape Town, and their lovely guest accommodations are comfortable, private, and aesthetically pleasing. Melody made herself available to provide us with recommendations and support for our explorations of the region. I enjoyed all my conversations with both Melody & Leonard, who each are veritable encyclopedias of CT culture and history! We stayed there for over 2 weeks, and by the time we left we felt a strong attachment to the place and our hosts. Next time I stay in Cape Town, I will stay there. Summer visitors will have the advantage to enjoying the swimming pool in addition to the beautiful views from the poolside!"

"Excelent stay"

The setting and detail that went into preparing this tranquil Bed and breakfast is easily seen and much appreciated. I would recommend this place to all and already have. The service is excellent and is second to none. Parasido was the only place I could find that was available for the date I wanted to go and how thankful I am that it was."


"Excellent apartment"

(United Kingdom) Colin Whitman

"We stayed from 5-21 January 2007 in this excellent apartment. The facilities were really good and we were made very welcome by Leonard and Melody. Two linen changes were made and the position of the apartment was great for our purposes. Hospitality tray very welcome, no adverse comments."


"Peaceful stay"

"The Paradiso was a pleasure to stay at. In its beautiful garden setting it was quiet and peaceful and far enough away from busy roads to stay that way.
Melody and her team were kind and helpful hosts who worked hard to make our visit a pleasure, not to mention the great breakfasts served up every morning.
The room, (#1), was perfect, very clean and plenty of space with traditional furniture and fittings, (which we loved). It is one of the few places that provide more than one suitcase stand, essential when couples are travelling with individual suitcases.
In the morning you would open the doors onto a spectacular view of the mountain and distant vineyards bathed in the morning sunshine.
In the late afternoon when returning to change before going out to eat, the sun was on your patio and you could relax and catch some rays, or even take a dip in the pool.
We loved it so much that we booked it again for the weekend before our flight home.

"Last November we were in Paradiso for 5 nights as the start of our holiday in South Africa.The rooms were excellent and kept clean every day. Our host and hostess Leonard and Melody were very kind and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived (which was rather late due to a peace of luggage that was missing). Breakfast was great (we could skip lunch!) and we certainly remember the carefully chosen bottles of wine Leonard provided us with when we came home after a busy day. Location is close to all the sights you want to visit. Absolutely a guesthouse I would advise people to be, when they arrive in Cape Town. "


"Nice place in Cape Town"

Everything was well prepared in the room (the babycot was ready, there was a table extra because we wanted to eat in our room, etc.). We could use a book with streetmaps from Capetown and Cape Peninsula and got good tourist information. Nice establishment we certainly advise! "


"Paradiso Guesthouse"

(South Africa) Mrs Cilliers

"We visited the delightful and appropriately named "Paradiso" guest house for four nights this week. We found it pretty, peaceful and pristine. Breakfast was good. The owners were very kind and helpful. The gardens and two swimming pools are beautiful and well tended. We will definitely go back."


"In Cape Town"

(Switzerland) Itzi Klein

"A place should not only be measured by the room and the service provided (which were excellent at Paradiso) but also by the reaction when something goes wrong. Something did go wrong and the reaction was perfect, we were very pleased with our entire stay. "


"Paradiso Lives Up to its Name."

(United Kingdom) Mr Neil

"We were only booked in for two nights, but wished we could have stayed for longer. The rooms were extremely spacious and comfortable, breakfast magnificent, outlook stunning and everyone so friendly and helpful. Thanks for getting our South African holiday off to a great start. "

""Paradiso" is a really friendly Guest House where nothing is too much trouble for the owners. They live next door and so are handy should any problems arise. There is an internet connection and WiFi in the rooms for those needing to keep in touch with home etc. There is a swimming pool that would be great when it gets really hot, set in a beautiful garden.
The location is ideal for both Cape Town itself and for the whole of the Cape Peninsula. Close by are the Wineries of Constantia (well worth a visit)! There are some really nice restaurants, 5 minute drive away. All in all had we had a lovely and safe location which I can thoroughly recommend.

It is a pleasure to meet such friendly and warm people.
I would recommend to anyone from `overseas` or from round the `corner`.

The `cats` were also very friendly and homely.

If I had to describe the Paradiso in one phrase I would say `A home from home`"


"Paradiso stay"

(South Africa) Ms Elliott

"This cosy guest house in a beautiful setting was perfect for our stay in Cape Town, friendly staff, lovely room and wonderful breakfast made it a great choice. Good location made it a lot easier to find our way around. A return visit is a must. "

"The Paradiso Guest House is in a beautiful location, very close to the Constantia wineries. The room in which we stayed in, which opened on to the lovely gardens, was superb with everything we could have wished for in terms of comfort and amenities. The pool, whilst small, is very good especially at the end of a hot days sightseeing and wine tasting.

The hosts are delightful and we really enjoyed our stay, which represented excellent value for money."
