Riverside Guest Lodge offers panoramic views of Grobbelaars River and Swartberg Mountains. It offers air-conditioned rooms and wooden cottages. There is a main deck with a splash pool, a bar, and a barbecue. On arrival we received a warm welcome and Candi gave us recommendations for restaurants, hikes and a terrific hairdresser. The lodge is very inviting and exquisitely decorated, and it was nice to have the option to take a canoe on the river free of charge. Breakfast was delicious, the beds extremely comfortable and I could easily have spent a week here.

Situated at the Sea Point Promenade facing the Atlantic coastline, The Winchester Hotel features a pool and an Italian-style courtyard surrounded by palm trees and fountains.

With original Cape Dutch décor, all air-conditioned rooms and suites at The Winchester Hotel come with satellite TV and tea/coffee facilities. A bathrobe is available in each modern bathroom. Most rooms feature sea or mountain view and some face the Italian piazza style Courtyard. I loved everything about this hotel. The location is perfect, a short drive from the V&A and centre of CT, sea-facing in Seapoint with the full mountain backdrop. Seapoint is really nice with lots of shops, restaurants and bars in walking distance and relatively safe (for SA). The hotel itself is gorgeous. It has a beautiful courtyard with red, purple and green Bougainvillea lining the whitewash walls. The hotel food is exceptional too. I love my food and every meal was above average. The room was spacious and had a lovely extension where my girlfriend could get ready. The bathroom was spacious and shower was very big too. To top it off, the staff were super friendly and super helpful. We spoke to them on a daily basis for help booking trips and restaurants and they went above and beyond to assist.

Great location and accommodating overall. Also had an inverter for loadshedding.Did not get to spend enough time here. Next time I come I will take some of the complimentary sherry and brandy from the lobby bar.

Offering views of Table Mountain, Number5 Guesthouse is set in a historical building, located in a quiet street and just 2-minutes' walk from Kloof Street.

The rooms at the guest house are individually decorated with an African theme and each room has a satellite TV, hair dryer and a bathroom with shower. Outstanding staff, particularly Charl and Sandra and also Tess. Always friendly and exceptionally helpful generally but also with with recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing. Sandra and Charl went beyond their job description to assist me with my mobile phone so I had a reliable SIM card which enabled me to use Uber to get around the city. I’m a solo woman traveller in my 70’s and I explored the city and ate out at night at nearby restaurants feeling safe and comfortable at all times.
