Comfortable, stylish and excellent value stopover. We stayed at Melville Gap Guest House for one night as a weekend stopover and were genuinely impressed. We booked the family unit, which was spacious, exceptionally clean and surprisingly stylish for a guest house — excellent value for money. The room was very well equipped, with air conditioning, a Nespresso machine, both a gas and electric kettle, and an abundance of plug points for charging devices. The bathroom was massive and the hot water was fantastic. The bed and bedding were cosy, and the overall atmosphere was quiet, comfortable and secure. The host/manager was extremely friendly and attentive, which added to an already great experience. I would happily recommend Melville Gap Guest House to anyone — whether travelling for business, as a family, or just passing through for a short stay.

Very neat and clean accommodation with modern interior decoration. We enjoyed our stay at Linden Gap guest house where they accommodated us in their sister guest house due to trouble with the water at Melville Gap. The only recommendation would be a fan for every room. The sleeper couch is not very comfortable for a third adult person. We enjoyed the Nespresso coffee!

Very awesome and so beautiful. Have to say I was dumbfounded with the price I pay and what I get. Will definitely stay there again, I think I'll see you again in August. Thank you.

Baie awesome en so mooi. Moet sê ek was stom geslaan met die prys wat ek betaal en wat ek kry. Sal vir seker weer daar bly, dink ek sien julle weer in Augustus. Dankie.

Tidy. Parking was an issue with other guests wanting to move in and out. Power was off - generator didn't come on until much later. I also didn't get the room I actually booked.

Netjies. Parkeerplek was wel 'n probleem met ander gaste wat in en uit wou beweeg. Krag was af - kragopwekker het eers heelwat later aangegaan. Ek het ook nie die kamer gekry wat ek eintlik bespreek het nie.

Easy to find, little traffic at peak times, well located. Apart from the reception on the day we arrived, it was a very comfortable place to find and is close to a variety of places to eat and has little traffic at peak times making it easy to get to business destinations.

Gemaklik om te kry, min verkeer in piektye, goed geleë. Behalwe vir die ontvangs op die dag wat ons gearriveer het, was dit 'n baie gemaklike plek om te vind en is naby 'n verskeidenheid eetplekke en het min verkeer in piektye wat dit gemaklik maak om by besigheidsbestemmings uit te kom.

Relaxed and very neat. The guest house itself is very neat, reception was very friendly, toilet was a bit small, but it was livable. Could maybe put a little more effort into the breakfast. It would definitely be appreciated.

Ontspanne en baie netjies. Die gastehuis self is baie netjies, ontvangs was baie vriendelik, toilet was so bietjie klein, maar dit was leefbaar. Kan dalk 'n bietjie meer moeite doen met die ontbyt. Dit sal definitief waardeer word.
