It was so lovely to stay at Upper Houghton Guesthouse.

We were so warmly welcomed and assisted with our luggage. The room is very spacious and neat with a lovely view of the outside pool. The breakfast was delicious and provided a wide variety of options. Will definitely recommend this guesthouse to anyone.

Very welcoming and comfortable.

If you are after modern chic, then this is not your spot. If you are after great hospitality, comfort and value for money, then this is your place. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Vriendelik, gemaklik en goed geleë.

Gaaf, behulpsaam, spasie en 'n heerlike ontbyt bied goeie waarde vir geld.

Wonderlik.

Die gasheer en sy vrou is dierbare mense met die grootste harte. Dit het soos huis gevoel en die ontbyt was baie lekker. Rêrig 'n plek wat ek vir elkeen sal aanbeveel wat in daardie rigting moet besigheid doen of een van die nabye skole moet besoek.

Wonderful.

The host and his wife are lovely people with the biggest hearts. It felt like home and the breakfast was very tasty. Really a place that I would recommend to anyone who needs to do business in that direction or visit one of the nearby schools.

Warm and welcome atmosphere.

Stayed over at Upper Houghton Guesthouse due to us running the Soweto Marathon and using it as a breakaway weekend. Marcus went absolutely out of his way to make our stay as comfortable and convenient as possible. Breakfast was divine and just loved the warm atmosphere and meeting the family. Thank you, Marcus, for spoiling us. I am so glad we got to meet you and your beautiful princess Hannah. We will definitely contact you again if we need a place to stay.

It was a pleasure hosting you and your husband. All the best with all upcoming Marathon and the comrades.

It was a joy having you with us. You are always welcome back.

Hope to meet again.

Kind regards

Marcus is very hands-on and absolutely willing to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

We had a very pleasant stay. Marcus is an absolute gem. It is an old but beautiful house inside. The garden needs a bit of tidying up but other than that we had a lovely stay and an excellent Breakfast. If you are looking for silence and tranquility, that is the perfect place to be!

Warm gasvryheid.

Die huis en erf is effens verwaarloos, maar dit was een van ons lekkerste blyplekke. Só skoon en huislik. Die gasvryheid en warmte van die gasheer was ongelooflik. Regtig 'n heerlike blyplek.

Warm hospitality.

The house and yard were slightly neglected, but it was one of our best places to stay. So clean and homely. The hospitality and warmth of the host was incredible. Really a great place to stay.
