“I am an American student studying abroad in Cape Town, and stumbled upon Medindi Manor when searching for a place for my father and sister to stay when they came to visit me. As soon as I walked into Medindi, I was completely sold. Gorgeous manor with high ceilings, wooden floors, spacious and comfortable rooms, delightful bathrooms (fantastic waterfall showers), and even a pool and lawn area. However, what made my family's stay at Medindi so fantastic was not simply the physical charm/beauty of the place, but the care and attention given to us by the entire staff. Always there to help with whatever we needed, the staff at Medindi really made my family feel completely at home in such a far away location. General Manager Rita Friedman is the most spectacularly warm/caring/generous host one could ever hope to come across. If for no other reason, I would tell people to stay at Medindi just so they could meet Rita. Again, we spent an absolutely wonderful week at Medindi Manor, and when I get a chance to return to Cape Town I will be sure to at least stop by Medindi to say hello to all the staff who became friends of mine by the end of the stay. Thanks Rita! You're the best!”

“We are very grateful for the attentions received during our stay. The best hotel and staff of the world!!!! Congratulations!!!! Thank you again!!!"
Mary and Armando, April 2010
“Our stay was very enjoyable and the breakfast scrumptious. We were also very impressed that Medindi arranged transport to take all runners of the 2 Oceans Marathon and half marathon to the starting points just after an early breakfast.”
Anonymous review on Safarinow.com, April 2010
“Thank you again for the wonderful time at Medindi. Great place, great service, great rooms. We LOVED it. I hope we can make it back to Cape Town anytime soon.”
Marco, June 2010
"I made reservations through the internet for my grad students arriving for the first time in Cape Town from Vancouver, Canada. They were totally charmed with everything at Medindi Manor and highly recommend this property to anyone. A special thanks to the staff for wonderful service!"
“I stayed here during the world cup. It was a great place to stay with the best hospitality I received amongst all guesthouses I visited in South Africa. Top quality service. Even though it’s not in the City Bowl area (10-15mins drive), I would still stay there if I were to visit Cape Town again because I feel I am safe and comfortable there. The staff there are amazing and are very helpful.”
vikTexas, review on Trip Advisor, July 2010
“Dear Rita,
The time we spent with you was really wonderful and we want to thank you and all the staff for the warmth with which we were received and the high quality of service offered by everyone during our stay. Medindi Manor is so well located as a base in Cape Town that we will be recommending it to anyone we know going there in the future. Pat and Trevor were very impressed as well. We feel we have made friends of you all . . . .
Our sincere thanks once again."
