Welcome to

Bluegumhill Guesthouse & Apartments

Bluegum Hill Guesthouse is a warm and welcoming family double storey house, lovingly decorated to reflect the colours and culture of South Africa. Breathtaking panoramic views are seen from our open plan kitchen, dining room, top and bottom lounges, large balcony and pool deck, as well as our six well kept and characterful en-suite bedrooms.

We are situated on the top-most road of Upper Green Point, one of Cape Town’s most up-market residential areas and close to the City Centre and the world famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, yet it is remarkably quiet.

Our panoramic 180 degree views stretch across Table Bay to Robben Island, the 2010 Soccer World Cup Stadium, the V&A Waterfront with its working Harbour and the coastal suburb of Mouille Point with its’ Lighthouse and seaside promenade. See the waves breaking on the shoreline of Robben Island. Across the bay, lies Bloubergstrand with the Tygerberg Hills in the background.

Africa’s colourful history and warmth are reflected in our artistic décor, warm friendly atmosphere and good old-fashioned South African hospitality. Sleep in one of our six characterful, well equipped bedrooms and wake to a generous Full English alfresco breakfast. Let us help organise your days sightseeing trips and later enjoy sundowners around our sparkling salt-water pool.

Reviews

We returned to Bluegum with some of our family so they could experience the views from the guesthouse and the excellent service from Aissa and Ughetta and their small team. We were not disappointed and in fact enjoyed the stay even more second time around. Our family too loved the stay. The owners were so accommodating, helping with bookings and other arrangements. When one of our party was unwell they could not do enough to make our stay as comfortable as possible. I am sure we will be returning for a 3rd visit in the future.

"peace and love !"

This B&B is situated in the highest road of Signal Hill, above there is wood .So as you are high up the view over V&A watefront, the Soccer Stadium and, weather permitting, Robben Island is very nice. Our room was clean and we had everything we needed, big bathroom with shower and bathtub. Nice honesty bar, wine, beer and soft Drinks. Nice hot and cold breakfast. As the Guesthouse is far up the hill the entrance is a couple of steep stairs off the road, which can be quite tricky with suitcases. Our room was a spiral staircase down the breeakfast room, so if you are bad at climbing stairs choose an upstair room. The staff was very helpful carrying our luggage, so this is not a problems. The owners very helpful with recommendations for nice Restaurants. And they organize an Airport shuttle if you want

"bluegum"

Ughetta greeted us on arrival, such was her personality both my wife and I felt relaxed. The Guest House is situated up a steep road with panoramic views from the rear aspect overlooking the Stadium in the middle with the Quays to the right and Three Anchor Bay to the left. Ughetta obtained assistance with transferring our luggage from our car to our room. Our room no. 5 overlooked the panoramic scene, was spacious with a separate large bathroom porcelain non-slip tiles, shower, wash basin and bath.
