We loved that hotel. The staff was great, the breakfast buffet was also good. The location was great. We could walk everywhere. The hop on hop off bus stop was not far. We were basically across the street about a block away from colourful Bo Kaap. We got upgrade to stay in a Loft on the 9th floor with an amazing view of the mountain range. Two people really went out of their way to help us that we really appreciated. One was the young Porter named Sesethy, the other one was Sanelisiwe who worked in the Breakfast Buffet. Both went the extra mile for us and we are very grateful for their outstanding services.
We we would stay there again.

I've stayed at the Lodge several times by now and they have a persistent issue with their key cards: essentially one neds to get the card recoded every day or two as they keep using very used cards that do not hold the key info on their magnetic strip long enough (a hotel like this should be able to afford new key cards and throw the worn out ones out). Othet than this: perfect location...

I only booked this hotel because I needed a place to stay after checking out of my Airbnb since it had an early morning checkout and my flight didn't leave until 9:00 PM. I figured I'd just walk the CBD for an hour then come back to the room to rest before catching my flight. Upon arrival, I asked the guy at the front desk the address because my Uber driver wasn't sure he had dropped us off at the correct location. Instead of providing me with the address, he asked me what address I was looking for. I told him that I just needed to know the address. Not in a very pleasant manner, he continued to question me! Strike one! Upon checking out of the hotel, the lady at the front desk called someone via walkie-talkie to check my room while I stood there. She literally had me stand there while they checked the room, as if I was walking away with a television or had left a dead body in there! I asked if this was normal because I had never endured such upon checking out of a hotel. She lied yes. After receiving a report all was well, she then took my room key. I have NEVER in my life been treated like a wanted suspect at a hotel! These people need better training! They work in hospitality, but were not very hospitable AT ALL!!! I don't know if I was treated this way because of the color of my skin or what, but I will NEVER book another room at this hotel. I will also tell everyone I know to NEVER book a room at this hotel. UNACCEPTABLE and they should both be better trained or fired!!!

Big manager knocked at my door every time I used the minibar. I don't think they can do this with every customer. Truly absurd given how trivial the minibar amounts were and given the thousands of dollars I had spent at the hotel, I found this behavior Pathetic.

Horrible, greedy hotel

Staying at this hotel is an extremely unpleasant experience. Their business model seems to be charging a large deposit (300R per night, payable in advance) and then looking for reasons to keep it. The desk staff are more like bouncers, and I have heard horror stories of people being locked in the reception area facing demands for money. They did not find an excuse to keep my deposit, but you still get constantly held up whilst they perform various 'checks' to try to find things to charge you for, and then you have to wait multiple days for them to return the deposit to your card (even though they force you to pay in full before accessing your room). The rooms are also old and bad. It's just a terrible, rotten place which stinks of criminality and, as you can see by its recent reviews on various platforms, is going down the toilet fast. Please don't stay there and just allow it to go bankrupt quietly.

Tea making area with sink provided, combined with the wardrobe was neat and convenient but could do with a light above it. TV is tiny for the size of the room. Minibar provided was adequately supplied but overpriced. Breakfast was more than adequate with a large variety of selections and I did note variety over several days.

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.

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.

This hotel is located in a center of the Cape Town and easy driving access to any of the tourist attraction.
Lobby receptionist was very nice and polite and professional even it said she was still in training.
It was a large room and very comfortable. View of the Table Mountains from the room window was also great.
Staff at the breakfast restaurant was all great, very friendly to our 2 and half year old daughter.
We would like to visit this hotel again.

Terrible idea

The building is outdated, poorly maintained, and has an unpleasant odor. The staff is rude and unprofessional, collecting a security deposit at check-in and charging for everything they can—guests, water, and overpriced laundry. To refund your deposit, they demand your full credit card details, including the CVV, which feels extremely shady. Avoid staying here.

The black lady at the front desk is very arrogant and unreasonable all the time, and does not even want to talk to you, and does not look at the customer all the time, which should be the worst service attitude in South Africa. The facilities are very old, the elevator is like sitting on a snail, there are many cockroaches in the room at night, only breakfast is good.

I have stayed in a lot of hotels around the world and I would say this is on top of my list in the last couple of years for various reasons. It is really cheap vs what you'll get - I was upgraded to a room, free buffet breakfast with a lot of options and food options change everyday as well. Room is well cleaned up everyday. Great view of table mountain - I wake up and sleep looking at this wonderful creation. This is not something to do with the hotel but for some reason, whenever I buy something from shops around, I get followed by beggars - felt unsafe for that reason. You can also hear some noise from outside - as it's pretty close to bars - but I wasn't bothered as I was super tired everyday because of sightseeing and other activities.

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!

When I arrive since I was going there for the first time and arrived ĺate at night. They waited until I was by the door with my luggage which was heavy climbing the stairs to tell me that they use the parking lot entrance.

Upon checking in no one bothered to inform me that they're busy with renovation. Before 08:00 in the morning was woken up by massive sound. When I called their reception to inform her that there's a disturbing sound that is extremely loud. She said she will check then get back to me, which she never did until I checked out. Still no one bothered to apologize or inform me of what was happening.

Their breakfast is not appetizing.
Whe going to the 9th floor rooms there's a door for security reasons which I understand, which they failed to mention to give instructions on what I needed to do to access the rooms.The outside area is not clean just neat.
The shower had moulds which is a high source of fungal infection.

The only persons that I had a pleasure interacting with is the butler and the other guy which I don't know his name or job title, but I think is part of the overal supervisor or maintenance personnel.
