Breakfast was very good with a good variety of food. Staff were friendly and helpful. We really appreciated being able to leave our luggage on site while we explored the neighbourhood before flying out later that evening. Grounds are nicely shaded and you do get a nice view down to the sea and back to Lion's Head. Easy to get an Uber and a safe walk to the bars restaurants, and shops close by. Pool was refreshing! Our friends enjoyed their walk from the Walden to the V & A waterfront along the coastal promenade (during the day).
There are steep hills in the neighbourhood and the walk up to the Walden can be taxing, especially when it is warm. There is an elevator in the building but not sure if we could access it or not to move our luggage upstairs. There is construction behind the building which was noisy first thing in the morning. Unfortunately it will also degrade the view back to Lion's Head. They did advise us before hand about the construction which was appreciated.

-Clean rooms and beds were comfy with 2 pillow options. -Room was huge with separate living room area - had direct access to the pool with a nice deck area. -Staff were friendly and helpful for check-in as we arrived very late. -Internet was strong, I was able to have zoom calls in my room. -Location was decent with a short 10-15min walk to a main street with lots of food options for lunch/dinner, or a short drive into Cape town centre
Shower could have been better, door didn't fully close and didn't drain super well. Location is on a hill so if planning to walk, it is quite uphill on the way back.

This is a beautiful guest house in a quiet street but still within walking distance of Sea Point. Our room was lovely and spacious with a stunning view from the balcony. Melanie and her staff are gracious hosts who make you feel really welcome. Breakfast is super and the coffee is so good. A really good salt water pool and very pretty gardens just round it all off. This will be my go to venue in CT from now on.

The rooms are huge, clean and perfect for our stay with a baby. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and in a lovely setting. The pool area was great for relaxing and for our baby to play next to. We would definitely stay again if we visit Cape Town. Thank you for your hospitality!
Nothing. It was all super!

Location was amazing. Accommodations were perfect if you're looking for something less commercial than a larger hotel but not wanting to stay in an Airbnb.
We still slept comfortably with the door open, but for America travellers during a hot period it is good to keep in mind there is no air-conditioning.

What can I say. It is a Cape Town Fairytale. The view, the pool, the owners, the amazing bougainville, the view, the silence, yet the heart of the city within walking distance (if you like walking, it's an hour, hour and half to reach whatever you need and want to reach and otherwise you grab an Uber half way. Please book room number 7. You will not be disappointed. Thank me later.
It's perfect. Please don't change.

I recently stayed at The Walden Suites and I have to say, it was a fantastic experience. The host, Melanie, was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable. The staff was also incredibly friendly and made me feel at home. One of the highlights of my stay was the delicious and healthy breakfast that was served every morning. It was a great start to my day and set me up for a productive day ahead. Last but not least, the pool was simply amazing. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day. Overall, I would highly recommend The Walden Suites to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Can't really complain about anything.

Centrally located, very clean and exceptionally attentive staff from the word go. Nothing too much trouble. We had a lovely big room with shared balcony with views of the sea. Private parking, excellent breakfasts and lovely pool.
