Fabulous!!
From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, we were welcomed and felt at home. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Directions and guidance were given about day trips and safety. Our room was amazing and had everything we needed. If we are able to come back to beautiful Capetown, we will stay here again!

Such a lovely stay and welcome to Cape Town! We arrived off a long flight and were greeted with breakfast & friendly smiles. We were even surprised with a room upgrade for the first 2 nights of our stay. Rooms were super comfortable, breakfast was delicious, and staff was super friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend a stay here!

We are two 70-year-old women who felt carefully cared for and attended from start to finish. Godfrey and the other amazing people who work there knew what we needed before we knew. Their recommendations for dining and tours were the best we could imagine. The breakfasts were better than any restaurant we went to. The Lodge is cozy, warm (a must for us!), clean, and had the sweetest coffee and tea arrangement in the room.

The staff are super helpful and welcoming, breakfast delicious, refurbished rooms lovely and able to walk to many restaurants/shops happily during the day.
The bar area is quite small so when there are parties travelling together you can be made to feel an imposter. Pool area is shaded which may suit some people.
As yet there is no provision for load shedding but they are working on this. I still rate this 5* as it is exactly as described, I would definitely return.

I highly recommend Blackheath Lodge. Excellent, professional and friendly customer service. By the time you leave, you feel as though you’ve stayed with friends. The loft room is spacious and yet feels cozy. The substantial breakfast is delicious and the chocolate cake and treats always left out to enjoy a special touch. Cannot wait to return!
