“A Hidden Gem with Heartfelt Hospitality! Unbeatable location, five-star comfort & magnificent host”
Exceptional Stay – Highly Recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing stay at Glenelg Road Guesthouse. The location is perfect close to everything you need, yet peaceful and quiet. The Studio room is beautifully decorated and super clean! The host was incredibly friendly and welcoming, going above and beyond to make us feel at home. She even had the room beautifully warm and cozy for our late arrival from Cape Town such a thoughtful touch! The guesthouse is well-equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The spacious room, the relaxing atmosphere, and all the amenities made it feel like a home away from home. We especially loved the large, comfy bed after a busy day at the swim gala. We would definitely recommend Glenelg Road Guesthouse to anyone looking for quality accommodation with outstanding hospitality. We’ll be back for sure!

“Great location, wonderful hosts”
Glenelg Guesthouse is in an ideal location, close to shops and restaurants and in a quiet area. There is secure, off street parking. I stayed here while visiting my family who live nearby and couldn't have chosen a better option for my 8 days. The studio is large, could easily accommodate 4 people, decorated to a high standard and was cleaned regularly throughout my stay. Lizette is a friendly and very helpful host. She provided the basics (coffee, tea, milk, water etc) and the kitchen is very well equipped should you choose to eat at home. Netflix is provided as well as reliable WiFi. The shower was fab as well!

“My cozy holiday”
The guesthouse was clean and spacious for my whole family, the guesthouse was having everything we needed pot's, crockery and enough cutlery. Lizette went out all her way to buy us 5l still water and we got ouma rusks for tea. She is so friendly I would definitely book her place again when we go to PE.
