The City Lodge was our base for four nights in Cape Town and we were very pleased with this hotel. It offers the perfect location, within an easy 10 minute walk to epicenter of the V&A Waterfront complex of shops. Our room and bed were comfortable, everything is well-maintained, the front desk staff was professional and the buffet breakfast (with... More

Stayed here with my sons when we were looking at schools in CT. Well located and reasonably priced. Decent sized room, but TV was tiny and the is no room service. You can tray-in from the restaurant where prices are reasonable or access fast-food via Mr Delivery.. But it's not the same. The hotel 'does the job' - good for... More

I stayed in April 2013 for a weekend getaway on the end of a business trip. The hotel was great for holidaying (easy walking distance or short boat or taxi ride to the V&A Waterfront) and work (good sized desk in room, free 20 mins of internet a day, then charged directly to your credit card.) The rooms are clean... More

As previous reviewers have indicated very clearly - this hotel is an EXCELLENT choice, especially for business people needing to be fairly centrally located, with close proximity to N1 & N2 and who are not wanting to pay the high rates some hotels in the CBD/Waterfront area charge. The same would apply to folks holidaying in Cape Town and not... More

We stayed here for a second year in row to take part in the Cape Argus Cycle Tour. The hotel is smack bang in the middle between the start and the finish line. The hotel is very accommodating for the cyclists with an early breakfast on the day of the race and allowing cycles in the room. “Sweat and Gears”... More

Excellent buffet breakfast with everything you could imagine! Rooms were a great size, beds were super comfortable, new soap and shampoo everyday and all this steps away from the Waterfront! Not to mention complimentary parking, a refreshing dip pool and tourist help right int he lobby! Could not have been a better place to stay.

Excellent value for a short stay in Cape Town. Safe, free parking. The reception staff were friendly and efficient. The rooms are spacious, clean and the hotel is situated a stone's throw from the V.A. Waterfront. The Express breakfast bar is such a good idea! We have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to local as well as foreign visitors.

Excellent location, good price and in the best neighborhood of Cape Town, but if you go with kids and they want to swim, it could be heavy drinkers, in a really small swimming pool with no space for kids. And waitress giving them more alcohol with nobody to stop this disgusting and terrible situation for a good hotel. Service in... More

There are not many hotels of this price level within such short walking distance from the Waterfront. Very friendly and efficient staff. Excellent breakfast. Small but pleasant terrace overlooking the water, where one can enjoy drinks and food.Free parking. Easy to find and access straight off the main road.
