The Grosvenor Guest House & Self Catering
Set on the hillside slope overlooking False Bay, The Grosvenor Guest House & Self Catering provides 4-star accommodation with views of the South African Naval Base. The outdoor pool features a sun deck, which overlooks the False Bay. Accessed by stairs, the tastefully decorated rooms at the Grosvenor come with en suite bathrooms. Tea-and-coffee-making facilities are provided in every room. A full English breakfast with a selection of fresh fruit and orange juice can be enjoyed each morning on the enclosed patio. There is an honesty bar in the dining room, and the attentive staff can help arrange restaurant bookings. Guests at Grosvenor Guest House can relax on the terrace or have a refreshing dip in the swimming pool. The Boulders Beach, home to a thriving colony of African penguins, is less than one km away. The Grosvenor provides an ideal base to explore the Cape Point Route. A winding pathway will take you to the Main Road of Simon's Town and directly to the village with shops and restaurants.
