I must qualify that I really dont enjoy guesthouses, there is always something missing in my view so I wanted to contextualise my response, this place is really good and it ticks all the boxes, good breakfast, good rooms facing the pool, friendly staff (except for the breakfast waiter, he doesnt seem to know how to smile) but really a...

through a recommendation I found the Ashdown House and surely will return. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms are lovely, the design awesome, breakfast very elaborate. A super place to regenerate. Ann-Christin

Ashdown house has a natural tranquillity that creates a perfect environment for work or a break while visiting the city. The rooms and facilities are of a high quality with a personalised service provided by well trained staff that maintains privacy while supporting individual requirements. The pricing is competitive and I appreciated the upgrade given for my long stay.

It's been our second time at Ashdown and it won't be our last. Staff and atmosphere are friendly, a beautiful property with very nice rooms, especially the luxurious, African-styled bathrooms are my favourite. Ashdown serves a wonderful breakfast with a hug variety of fruits, teas, eggs, etc.

i cannot imagine a better B&B, room, food, staff and facilities, outstanding. My favourite in jhb now. A step away from the one man shows (which is good), plenty of staff, but still vey personal and warm. Loved everything about it. Real thought and care has gone into the small touches in the room.

This is my second stay at Ashdown House on business from Australia. I'm sitting by the pool on a Sunday morning after a great breakfast getting ready for a week's work in Jo'berg.
