Guests at Glen Onoko Guesthouse enjoy exclusive access to the primary residence, which spans approximately 1,600 square feet across the top two floors, just as the shopkeepers of the past did when they resided above their businesses.

In addition to the charming interior, guests are welcome to use the private courtyard, complete with a lush shrubbery border and a convenient BBQ grill for outdoor gatherings and al fresco dining.

The entrance to the guesthouse is located at the back of the building, ensuring privacy and ease of unpacking. A dedicated private parking area is provided, adding to the convenience of your stay.
