"A great little place in the big city"
Everything about this worked out. I made an email
reservation and upon arrival they were expecting me.
The room was clean and comfortable, the food good and
staff very friendly and helpful. Security guard out front,
closed gate at night, free internet in the lobby are just
more reasons I liked it. Would I stay here again? Of
course! In my mind there is nowhere else to stay!

"THE CHOICE IS EASY!!"
New Cape Grace is without a doubt the best valued room in
Islamabad and more importantly the most outstanding
hospitality one could imagine, anywhere. I felt 100% safe and
secure from the moment I arrived - at 4AM with a ride from
the airport - and the impeccable quality of the service
continued throughout my 14-day stay. Needless to say, I
highly recommend NCG for anyone interested in comfort as
well as security.

4. I live up in the mountains doing charitable relief work and come down to Islamabad once a
month or so for meetings, buying medicines for our health facilities, picking up volunteers,
etc. There are several guest houses I've tried out over the last few years, but 8 months ago
I began staying at New Cape Grace, and have found a home away from home. When it
comes to the combination of price, service and amenities, New Cape Grace is the best guest
house in Islamabad. Other guest houses I've tried are more expensive, but I've experienced
frequent problems that are very frustrating, especially when you visit a second time and the
problems have not been solved by management. This indicates an owner and staff who
simply don't care about the comfort of their guests- the internet is consistently down, the
hot water is rarely hot (sometimes the water isn't there at all), the rooms are not clean, the
pillows are not soft, the furnishings are cheap, the staff is not friendly, attentive and
cooperative. New Cape Grace charges less but their amenities, rooms, food and service are
comparable to what one would find in an upper scale bed & breakfast guest house in any
tourist destination in The States. The thing I most like about New Cape Grace is that the
ownership and staff work hard to provide a relaxing and affordable place that people like me
will want to come back to again and again. They have earned my highest recommendation.

The owners and staff of the New Cape Guesthouse
in Islamabad went above and beyond to make our
visit the best it could be. We spend nearly a month
there and in the end felt we were staying with
family. I have stayed at many of places all over the
world, but can honestly stay that the New Cape
Guesthouse will always be at the top of my list. I
highly recommend it.
