We loved it

We loved everything about this hotel. The room was huge with a great view of the city, breakfast was delicious (great choice of savoury and sweet) and the staff were always helpful and really nice to us. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Cape Town, since on top of everything else, it's right next to Bree street, an area of great atmosphere.

Disappointed customer‼️

Room advertised online was definitely not the same room when checking in and very small (please change online pictures‼️). No dishwashing liquid in room to wash cups or glasses, when asking cleaning staff I was informed they didn't have any, they just use water to wash cups etc - unhygienic‼️. Front desk staff not very helpful when checking in and they seem busy and pre-occupied and not interested... avoiding me that if I wavy to upgrade it will cost me R500.00 - totally bizarre. Prepare yourselves for parking costs which is R150.00 per night and payment is expected upfront. Hotel nice and quiet and location is great. Checking out was a breeze, thanks to Mustapha who assisted me, he was patient and kind. Please employ note staff like Mustapha. If only he helped me when I checked in.

The staff is nice and kind, but it is kind of creepy inside because the walls to the room is painted in all black making it so dark. The room though, is nice and has enough space. I don't feel safe walking around outside of the hotel.

Great Value. Highly Recommended!

Great hotel Superd value. Stayed 7 nights. Great location in city centre. Easy access to many restaurants, shops & attractions! Even has a liquor store and laundry shop adjacent to hotel! Although located opposite BoKaap, we felt safe in the surrounding area. Condition was superd. Nice clean rooms & toilets. Full bar in fridge. Outstanding house keeping! Although parking was R100 per day, it was well worth it. Bright and safe secure parking with many attendants. Breakfast was 5 star! Good quality and variety! And it’s free with the rooms! Read many positive reviews about this Hotel before booking!!!!! And they’re all true. Very good. Highly recommended for your stay in Cape Town.

Big white Afrikaaner guy on reception needs to turn down his passive aggressive attitude to being challenged on hotel policy around deposits. He lords it over the rest of the black staff around him and thinks he can do the same with paying guests. This hotel is charging a deposit to guests credit cards not as a shadow charge but as a full charge. Then when you are leaving they want the card number, expiry date and CVV number with which anyone could charge to your card. Banks, and I work for one clearly tell you not to give people this detail is all that’s needed to charge your account. Once you give them the detail they then tell you it will take 5 to 7 days for the refund to reach your account. information's. What this hotel should be doing is putting a shadow transaction on your account, then removing it in the day you leave. What’s probably happened in the past is people have disputed charges and banks have sided with customers so now they charge the full deposit. It’s a risk for every guest that these details fall into the wrong hands. For this reason and the attitude of the only white guy at reception I won’t be staying again, and advise any tourists to steer clear if you don’t want fraudulent transactions appearing any time after you’ve stayed here.

Overall Bad experience,

I stayed during 5 days at the cape town lodge hotel. I was in Cape town for a trade show so I decided to book a studio instead of superior room to have more comfort to be able to work. It was a huge mistakes! -during 4 days internet was not working. In fact, if you turn off the access point from the room you can have internet but with a really weak signal At the end I bought a 4G Mifi and 4G data airtime... -the studio is really large, furniture a little bit old and tv outdated but overall it's clean. But in the description of the room they forgot to explain that the room has no window... If you are used to wake up by using the day light it's safer to add an alarm - from 8 am to 10pm there is music in the corridor. Sound Isolation is really bad in your room and the desk really close to the corridor so it's impossible to focus ;-( at least there is wework close to the hotel -sound Isolation is really a pb especially when they are partying during 2 nights on the room close to you. Don't expect any help from the reception -in order to finalize this 'wonderful' stay they charged me twice for some mini bar items -cleaning ladies and security teams from the parking are great. Reception at the opposite they have really difficulty to focus especially when someone is speaking on the walkie talkie. Even for a joke they will stop listening/speaking to you... Hopefully cape town and people from Cape Town are great and my bad situation with the hotel didn't affect the overall experience
