The property is small and very comfortable. It's located in Bo Kaep, a lovely neighborhood known for its colorful houses and Muslim community. It's walkable to the waterfront and other places. The rooms are suites, with kitchen and sitting areas. Besides being well maintained and having a great breakfast included, the staff is excellent. Every person I met was friendly and helpful. They made a point of introducing themselves and making me feel at home. The manager, Jean-Pierre, let me stay late in the room as it is low season and no one was booked in the room. I prefer the small boutique hotels to the large chains. This one is one of the best I've stayed in.

We loved our stay at the Rouge on Rose Boutique Hotel! Our room was beautiful and spacious, and both the room and the hotel were super clean. Jean Pierre and the rest of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our entire visit.

The cook-to-order breakfasts were delicious and clearly made with the freshest ingredients. We also really enjoyed the Bo-Kaap neighborhood; it was a great choice—vibrant, centrally located, and with a wide selection of fantastic restaurants nearby.

The hotel itself is a unique and interesting space with lots of fascinating art, making it feel very personal and not at all like a corporate hotel. Most importantly, we always felt safe and secure during our stay. We highly recommend this boutique gem!

This property is in the old section of Cape Town and next to Bo Kaap. We had a room on the first floor. It was very spacious with contemporary decor. Bed was large and comfortable. The comforter was heavy and we got warm at night even setting the AC to 17. Breakfast was delicious. Very limited parking but host and staff arranged for street parking with security. Michel is a fantastic host with lots of good information. Not too many amenities.

After an intense work week, a friend and I had 4 days in Cape Town before returning to Canada. Rouge on Rose was a perfect place to explore Cape Town and its environs. The hotel is in Bo K-aap which is a really interesting neighbourhood and very central. The vibe was definitely chilled. The rooms are large and comfortable. Lots of little things done well - lots of international plugs, heat/ac pumps. Staff were fantastic - they went out of their way to be helpful and also had lots of great tips. I will definitely book again if I heard down to Cape Town. Highly recommended.

Best boutique hotel I have ever been in

I travel the world, and have been staying in hotels for 10+ years.

Rouge on Rose in Cape Town is by far the best hotel I have ever stayed at.

Michel, Obed and the team were masterful in their service, information and support. I had early mornings, late night, and needed advice on the area - and EVERYTHING I asked for was catered for. I'm actually thinking of coming back just to see what else I could ask to see if they would achieve it - and I am confident in their knowledge and care that they will exceed expectations even then.

Cannot recommend this gem of a hotel enough.

Breakfast was fantastic, and everything was done with a smile.

Would recommend for solo, couples or groups.

A great boutique hotel

The staff was amazing; willing to help with transportation arrangements and restaurant recommendations. The breakfast was delicious.
The location was perfect for us to walk in the city center.

Spent 4 nights at Rouge and had a lovely stay. Plenty of good restaurants in the area. Michel was great with providing ideas of what to do and where to eat. Breakfasts were also fantastic including the serving staff. Watch out for Chris who served up some deadpan humour with your breakfast, too funny !

I can't wait to get back to the Rouge!!!

We love this hotel, the staff and accommodations. They addressed our every need, (but we really didn't need anything because they provided wonderful amenities that we didn't even know we needed!!) The proprietors assisted us in navigating around the vicinity specifically and Capetown in general. We will return to Capetown if only to stay at the Rouge one more time. If you don't book here, you will have missed something very special.

A great place to stay!

The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make sure our stay was pleasant. We arrived early in the morning, well before the stated check-in time. The gladly stored our luggage and delivered it to the room while we explored the city. They made good recommendations about where to eat and what to do. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast was great. I would gladly stay there again.

I am thoroughly impressed with this boutique hotel-- if you are thinking about making a reservation, just do it! You will not regret it! This is truly a gem in downtown Cape Town.

The rooms are very spacious and look very nice. The bed and pillows are very comfortable, and the wifi is excellent. And this is all at a great price.

But the best thing about this place is the staff. I came while South Africa was still dealing with corona issues-- Ursula and Michel (the owners) went ABOVE and BEYOND by making sure I had everything I needed to have a good experience in Cape Town. They organized tours for me and gave me their personal opinions and recommendations for things to do in the area, and I really appreciated their honest insights. They also clearly love what they do and take joy in helping guests have a great experience in their hotel and in their city. There are some places where the staff makes you feel like family, and this is that kind of place. Ursula and Michel just did so much for me with personal touches and an abundance of hospitality and generosity-- I am truly touched and impressed by all they did for me. I was extremely happy staying here and extended my stay again and again!

Michel and Ursula were wonderful hosts, sharing ideas and stories and helping with anything I needed. Was lucky enough to stay during the minstrel carnival so the street came alive with colour and music. The room was lovely - breakfast was sensational and rocky and all the support staff were friendly and helpful. My first trip to Cape Town - I look forward to returning to Rouge on Rose.

Was in an excellent location for walking to restaurants or the Hop On Hop Off bus. Easy to walk to museums. We walked everywhere! The hotel staff were most friendly and helpful, warm and kind. The room was always spotless and we loved the size, the views out the window, comfortable large bed, excellent hot shower and abundant tea and coffee in the room. And breakfast was served quickly with large delicious portions every morning. This is a very unique hotel experience and we can’t wait to return!

Wonderful hotel-like staying with friends

I loved this hotel! It’s located in historic Bo Kaap area with its brightly painted buildings. Great location close to lots of restaurants, bars and shopping. Just a quick Uber or medium/long walk to the waterfront.
The owners Ursula and Michele could not have been more friendly, helpful and knowledgeable! All of the staff were wonderful. I felt like I was staying with friends!
The rooms are huge, comfortable and clean. Nicely decorated. Checking in and out was a breeze!
I’ll be back!!!

A lovely place, very well located in Bo Kapp with views over the brightly coloured houses of the area to Signal Hill and the Lion’s Head beyond. A number of excellent restaurants were within a short and safe walk. Our room was exceptionally spacious, decorated in minimalist style with touches of bright red and a few pieces of vintage furniture. The huge bathroom (with a standalone bath as well as separate rainfall shower) is very open plan, so know your roommate well! The bed was quite firm, but very spacious. The included breakfast was very good. On site secure parking was a big bonus. Ursula and Michel were excellent hosts - very welcoming and helpful with great tips for visiting the Cape Town area. Thanks you both.

Fantastic!

Fantastic hotel. Ursula and Michel helped us with everything from planning our trip to organising dinner reservations. Extremely friendly!

Rooms are a great size, ours had a small kitchen too. Breakfast was wonderful!

This hotel is right at the edge of the Bo-Kaap which may not be for everyone (not as touristy than V&A Waterfront) however lots of nice local restaurants and about R30 (£1.50) Uber to V&A

Centrally located hotel

It felt like a home-from-home.
Ursula and Michel are at the heart of this hotel and take pride in what they do.
Hotel staff were friendly and courteous.
Breakfast was tasty,hearty, and prepared on order. Choice was optimal and always well presented.
I was especially touched as stayed here during my birthday week when I was surprised with a cake.Michel and the staff on duty sung to wish me a happy birthday.
The only con is the hotel doesn’t have a lift - however, this wasn’t a problem for me and had a room on the top (third floor). I was assisted carrying my suitcase up to the room. Complimentary water was nicely chilled in the room fridge on arrival.
Nothing was too much trouble.
I would stay here again.

Lovely Boutique Hotel in Cape Town, Michel and Ursula are super friendly and helpful and the breakfast was lovely, not buffet style, and small menu, but made to order and beautiful food
The location is ok, not suitable to walk around after dark and you will need ear plugs as the call to prayer in the early hours of the morning will wake you up, but the rooms are huge and nicely decorated. The bed was also super comfortable

Lovely boutique hotel

The hotel is lovely - big rooms and bathrooms - quiet and very good location - you can walk to the city center or to the \"hop on, hop off bus\" that is just 3 blocks away. Uber is also easy to use to get around town.
What makes it stand out are the owners - Michele and Ursula. They are warm and welcoming and truly generous with their time - explaining the many different options in sightseeing, restaurants in the neighborhood. Ursula even got me an appointment with her hairdresser and the beautician!! There is nothing that is too much trouble for them. They even allow you to store your luggage in their office if you have a late afternoon/evening flight so you can enjoy the few hours you have left before the trip to the airport.
The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming while the service ( breakfast, housekeeping) is excellent. I feel lucky to have found such a lovely place and will not stay anywhere else when I visit Cape Town again!
