I will really appreciate it if you could let me know how we can improve our service and provide better value for money. Derwent Hotel is a fantastic 4 star boutique hotel and their rates... More

If I had to sum it up in one word "fantastic"! We were warmly welcomed by Le Roi and Linda and made to feel at home right away. The helpful and friendly yet unobtrusive approach they have is just lovely. The room was well decorated and a good size, with really comfy beds! The en-suite had a lovely large shower.... More

From the start to the checkout, Leroi, Linda and their always helpfull staff make this stay an extra special experience. The house and its roomes are furnished with an asthetic interior and you feel very comfortable in an open-minded familiar atmosphere. 100 % !!

I already look forward to staying at Gap Lodge again. I felt very welcome and love the whole atmosphere. Love the deck outside. Kloofnek Road can be busy but with the aircon on there isn't much noise if you close the window.

It really is a charming place to stay. The bed was the largest and the most comfortably I have slept in for ages. The linen too was of the higest quality. So good I asked them where they had got it! The rooms were air conditioned and mine led out onto the patio where one has breakfast in the morning... More

Two friends and I stayed at Gap Lodge for six nights and it truly felt like "home". LeRoi and Linda were absolutely the best hosts. We were warmly welcomed and LeRoi immediately grabbed our bags and carried them upstairs to our rooms. The rooms were very well planned and had wonderful nice little touches.

We stayed at Gap Lodge for two nights in March and enjoyed all the small details that made it special: breakfasting on the first floor deck looking into a jungly neighbouring garden with Table Mountain beyond; the well-planned room and bathroom; the easy walk to the excellent restaurant recommended by LeRoi (so good we went there twice); highly recommended.

Dania and Steve had an excellent stay at the Gap Lodge. Linda and Le Roi are class acts who contributed to our great experience in Cape Town. Breakfast was great (especially the coffee), the room was adequate and clean (the bed was very comfortable), and the location was perfect. There was not a bad recommendation when it came to restaurants.... More
