“We had a delightful experience at Selkirk House. The managers never missed a detail, from the great comforters on the bed to the complimentary toiletries and the splendid breakfast. They were knowledgeable about the area which really helped us a lot. The accommodation is definitely 5-star.” Dena, Houston
“I was only at Selkirk for one night on business and wish it could've been longer. My room was big and extremely comfortable, the whole place smelt nice, and I had extras in my room that included chocolates, tea, coffee and everything else I could need to make my stay comfortable! Definitely exceeded my expectations. I would go back in a heartbeat.” Stephanie V, Cape Town
“This was our first stay in South Africa with a homecoming feeling. The lovely staff were always there to help you or give you service in a good family way. Our room was calm and the bed so comfortable that we almost overslept. The daily breakfast was delicious and included a bowl of exotic cut and sliced fresh fruit followed by eggs made just as we liked them.” Birgit, Sweden
“We were warmly welcomed in a homely environment and every detail was thought of. Great breakfast and great advice about the area in general including restaurant recommendations and bookings. Well stocked honesty bar, huge TV and all the amenities you could want.” Barbara G, United Kingdom
“An easy recommendation. It is like walking into a luxury show home. Everything 5-star including hospitality. The staff exceeded themselves and took care of our dinner and whale watching reservations. Breakfast was a treat and the famous bathrooms lived up to our expectations. We will definitely visit again on our next trip.” Navigator, South Africa
