Central and Lovely accommodation
Lovely boutique style accommodation in the heart of Swellendam. Within walking distance of very popular restaurants. We did not eat there but the restaurants seem to get booked up quickly.

Charming guesthouse
A really nice guest house. On our way from Cape Town to George we stayed there one night. We found it so pleasant that on the way back we decided to stay two nights there. Small, but nice rooms. A beautiful pool area. A decent breakfaST. The only thing to not making one happy was the internet connection, obviously valid in many places in Swellendam.

This was a delightful place to stay with extremely welcoming and friendly staff. The room was very comfortable and spacious with modern decor and personal touches and included a fridge. It’s much more a hotel than a guesthouse experience.
The breakfast buffet had a good selection of cereals, toasts, etc. inc. home made muffins and guests choose a freshly cooked to order English breakfast or a choice of omelettes.
The garden and pool provides a little oasis of calm but each room has a couple of chairs with tables outside the door to remain private if guests prefer.
The Elianthe is well located at one end of the main road and it took about 20 mins to stroll down to the NG Kerk towards the other end past shops, restaurants, etc.
Note: It’s advisable to check in by 7pm for a personal welcome, and not 9pm as stated by Expedia.

We could not feel more welcome, such a friendly and beautiful place with great hosts and staff. Breakfast was incredible, both quality of food and service. The room spacious and clean, and it felt like a safe area. Would definitely come back, one of the most memorable places we have stayed so far.

Eingangstür zum Zimmer lagt quasi auf der Straße und war schlecht zu verschließen. Die Zimmer waren zur Straße ausgerichtet (ca.10m) und waren in der Woche wegen des Durchgangsverkehrs viel zu laut.
