What makes the guesthouse stand out
GayOut lists the Amsterdam as a gay-only guesthouse for men and adults only. It’s one of the few men-only guesthouses in Cape Town and caters to guests looking for peace and mountain views who head out to the scene in the evening.
Rooms and amenities
There’s a pool, sauna and lounge, guests can cook for themselves, and restaurants are within walking distance. Guests praise the mountain views, the caretaker and the friendly staff; one review criticises thin walls and misunderstandings over room choice.
A good fit if you …
- are looking for a quiet men-only house with Table Mountain views
- like a sauna and pool
- are flexible with a car or rideshare
Not ideal if you …
- want to walk to the bars in De Waterkant
- don’t cope well with poorly soundproofed rooms
