The property was excellent. The staff was extremely helpful at every turn. My wife and I would happily stay here again without hesitation. It would be a great place to book with a few couples for a cozy spot near nightlife.

I like a comfortable, friendly place to stay in Cape Town before I rent an apartment for the rest of my stay. This was well located, not too close to the Waterfront busy area but not too far away.

Lovely Boutique Hotel!
What a lovely boutique hotel in Cape Town! We loved the style of the room, the delicious breakfast and the friendly service. We were on the first floor and were able to hear people moving around upstairs, so I would request an upstairs room if I were staying again.

Enjoyable stay
We enjoyed our stay at Harper's House very much. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, and the room was very comfortable. Harper's House is in a quiet street, but very close to a variety of restaurants and the waterfront, so very convenient for sightseeing.

Visit to Cape Town
This is an refurbished large old home. A very nice place with friendly guests and staff. The room was large and bright. You do have shared bath, but there are several on each floor. The local area is on the shady side with a number of homeless on the sidewalk and park benches. I was told safe, but don't be out walking late at night take a cab. There are a number of restaurants and bars close at hand.

So cute and charming!
This is such a unique and charming place to stay! I would highly recommend it. No need to be concerned about not having a bathroom in your room, it’s literally right down the hall and available whenever you like with good branded soap and such. The service was amazing and offers a great place to meet fellow travelers. We stayed at the Taj Cape Town beforehand and again, found this place to be way more charming and felt like you were at home.

Green Point tourism
Free WiFi, coffee and great location. Green point is so central; close to the V&A Waterfront and Sea Point. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. The complimentary bike hire was a bonus; and we used the bicycles to explore the area on our first day. Rooms are serviced daily and service is great. Friendly hosts and staff. The only negative was that we had to share a bathroom and toilet with other guests.

Beautiful place to stay in Cape Town.
My stay at Harper's House was fabulous. The rooms are large and decorated with the idea to make one feel at home. The staff at Harper's House is friendly and very accommodating. They were wonderful. My visit was during the winter and I was worried that the tiny heater delivered to my room would not be able to bring any level of comfort to the room due to the large area and high ceilings. Surprisingly it worked so well I had to turn it off in the middle of the night. I am no stranger to guesthouses where the bathrooms are down the hall and was surprised to find that a place of such quality would have this (they do mention this online). But in the end, my satisfaction with my room made the vey short walk down the hall inconsequential. About one block down to the main road you will find the MyCiti bus stop (but I walked to the center quite often). You will also find a variety of restaurants, a deli and the Woolworth grocery store and more all in walking distance of Harpers. I would recommend it to everyone. I wil be returning to Harpers on my next visit to Cape Town.
