Great atmosphere, lovely and super helpful staff. Bed was extremly comfortable. 6min to Waterfront by Uber. We felt very safe.

Due to early arrival they offered us to have breakfast but did not communicate that it will be charged. Unimportant detail, but at this price guests should not be charged for take away water bottles.

In a word. . . spectacular. I’ve traveled internationally quite a bit, and this was one of my favorite accommodations in the world so far due to the exceptional personalized service and warm hospitality. The lodge is impeccably clean and delightfully decorated, but it is the people who made it such a pleasant experience. Kaarin arranged our airport transport and tours (with private driver/tour guide Fareid) and proactively inquired if we would like to swap days for our Winelands and Cape Point tours to take advantage of the weather. Riano is utterly charming and suggested restaurants and made reservations for us. Godfrey was so helpful and informative, providing us with a map and recommendations for the best use of our time in Cape Town. Raymond was a brand new employee, but cheerful and eager to be of assistance. The breakfast each morning was delicious, including great coffee, Eggs Benedict, food cooked to order, quality fruit, several fresh juices, etc. The baked sweets available in the afternoon were a lovely accompaniment to tea or coffee, and the turn down service with hot water bottles to warm the bed was such a thoughtful idea. It all served to make our stay such an enjoyable one.

We had an incredible stay at the blackheath lodge in Cape Town. Central location to other neighborhoods on Cape Town, good quality breakfast, small pool area is serene - but the best part of our stay here was the service. The concierge team (Robyn and Riano) went above and beyond to help us plan our trip, providing us with recommendations for tours, restaurants - whatever we needed. They go the extra mile to ensure that every moment of your stay is comfortable and that you have everything you need. Thank you, Robyn and Riano!

This is a true BNB hotel - not the place to come if you want a hotel with a party vibe. That’s not what we were looking for, but good to note if that’s what you want.

Blackheath Lodge is in my opinion best described as a small boutique hotel with a very informal friendly and welcoming attitude in a good location and within easy reach of all attractions and restaurants etc via an inexpensive Uber. We have stayed in many 5* hotels, which are very easy on the eye and have every amenity you could wish for, however I mostly come away feeling underwhelmed as they lack the personal touch and you simply are a customer than a guest. Not so at the Blackheath Lodge where breakfast is cooked to order and was delicious. Likewise, our bedroom was very large and had an almost Victorian feel to it as the decor was so ornate. The bathroom was a good size and had a very nice walk-in shower without the need for a door as it was so large. However like all good hotels, what really sets them apart from others is the quality of the staff and Blackheath Lodge is no exception and each and every member of staff was always willing to help and go out of their way to improve your stay. Whether it be suggesting restaurants, booking them (as we asked on a few occasions) or helping with the car hire, nothing seemed too much trouble. All in all we had a lovely stay and I wouldn't hesitate recommending Blackheath Lodge to others.

Nothing that I can recall

We had a wonderful stay at Blackheath Lodge. The hotel provides a warm, comfortable, and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel right at home, perfect for unwinding after a busy day. What truly made our experience exceptional, however, was the staff. They were not only attentive and professional but also friendly and engaging, creating a welcoming and fun environment throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend Blackheath Lodge to anyone seeking a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

Nothing . Loved it all .

Very nice breakfast, cozy and comfortable bar and lounge space, lovely art, welcoming staff.

Only down side is because the rooms are spaced out, some of them aren't on the generator during loadshedding hours.

I loved my 2-night stay at Blackheath! I got in late evening and had a warm welcome and tour from the night manager, including a welcome glass of wine at the bar. We chatted a bit and he got me checked in...I grabbed a gin & tonic for the evening, as they have an interesting selection. There's a nice welcome packet of local information. The room was spacious & comfortable, bed was great, A/C worked well, wifi worked well. The staff are so friendly and helpful! Breakfast was good enough. I didn't get a chance to enjoy the pool but it was beautiful.

No meaningful complaints at all, it was absolutely lovely. Only one tiny note, I wished there was an electrical outlet anywhere near the bed, for charging my phone.

The rooms were great, with plush, luxurious bedding and beautiful, large comfortable beds. The communal areas were lovely with loads of original art by South African artist. The lodge is walking distance to great restaurants and the promenade. The staff were so helpful and friendly and we felt right at home. Hats off to Karen and her team, Riano, Mimi, Comfort and everyone else - it was an absolute pleasure staying at Blackheath Lodge, the joyous vibe in this place is infectious and we can't wait to return.

Can’t say enough good things about Blackheath Lodge - it’s really an absolute gem. The location is outstanding, easy walk to the sea and plenty of restaurants nearby, and gorgeous relatively short walk to V+A Waterfront. And very centrally located so easy Uber or taxi to all sites, but without the traffic of the CBD or V+A. The property itself is so cool — great decor, super comfortable rooms, and great views from the upper floors. But best of all is the staff. Karin, Riano, and everyone at the property were absolutely amazing. Never felt so well taken care of, and so grateful to them for their fanatic service. Cape Town is such a vibrant and wonderful destination, and Blackheath is absolutely the best place to stay.
