Built at the turn of the century and nestling in a quiet cul-de-sac at the foot of Signal Hill in Green Point. This amazing Guest House is set in a sub-tropical walled garden in the heart of urban Cape Town. Jambo is centrally located and a safe 15 minute walk to the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront; while Green Point’s excellent trendy restaurants are only 5 minutes away. The city centre is 4 minutes drive. more » « less

My husband & I stayed at the wonderful Jambo Guest House in April 2008 for a week as we explored the entire Cape Town area with daily excursions in every direction. On a quiet street within walking distance of the Victoria Wharf and Shopping Mall, Jambo has 5 guest rooms with full baths, each one beautifully decorated with a different... more

I stayed here with my boyfriend in April 2008 and I was very dissapointed. The room (which was the most expensive one) was ok and clean, although compared to a lot of the other hotels and B&Bs we stayed at it was pretty poor, the fan was really old and noisy, there was a 'insect killing light' that gradually got... more

We spent 4 nights at Jambo in June 2008 and I wish it could have been longer! The house itself is lovely, and the rooms really great, with everything you could need. The garden with jacuzzi is a great way to relax at the end of the day, and the upstairs bar is full of games, and other 'interesting stuff'... more

I have been staying with Barry and Mina in Jambo Guest House several times. I came to Cape Town in Oct 2002 and kept returning 5 times until then. Further visits are certainly going to follow. The Guest House is situated within walking distance of the V&A Waterfront and other attractions. We have been walking to the Waterfront even at... more

The JAMBO is very well situated in Green Point which is 5 minutes drive to all locations (Cape Town center, V@A, Camps Bay etc) and within easy walking distance to the V@A as well as some local shops and classy restaurants. It is 4 and 5 star rated and this is well deserved. The decor is what you might term... more
