Guest Reviews
- Pia (8/5): African Style - das ist die iKhaya Lodge - Wir freuten uns, nach 9 Jahren wieder in der iKhaya Lodge unterzukommen. Inzwischen ist die Lodge etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber immer noch vermittelt sie ein ganz besonderes Flair. Der Blick vom Wintergarten auf den Table Montain ist einmalig. Die Gastfreundschaft und der Service waren top. Ebenfalls genossen wir das Angebot vom Frühstücksbuffet mit zusätzlicher warmer Küche. Danke für alles.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - A lovely stay all around. Thank you for the warm welcome in Cape Town!
- Tsaone (10/5): - It was centrally located with killer views of table mountain. Everything you need is within walking distance and if you need to go a little further, Cape Town has Uber or even taxis. There are restaurants and museums right next door. If you like to party, the famous long street is a 15 minute walk!
- Masilo Victor (10/5): Ikhaya the best - Ikhaya is easily accessible, it is in a quiet area, serene views awesome. comfort and the service exceptional. it is a home away from home indeed
- Gert (10/5): - Great location. Friendly and helpful staff!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location! Did Cape Town Cycle Tour and very happy with stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great hotel, really close to the city. Lovely breakfast
- Kim R. (10/5): Great Location, Safe. Adequate staffing - I will return to this beautiful place. The staff are so kind and helpful. Breakfast included with my stay was so phenomenal!! It truly felt like I wasn’t, 1000’s of Miles from home. Highly Recommend! Kimberly
- Kathi (8/5): - Praktische Unterkunft für eine Zwischenübernachtung, Restaurants in der Nähe, parken auch kein Problem, auf Kundenwunsch würde eingegangen, leckeres Frühstück
- Brianna (10/5): - The owner Ruth and receptionist are the warmest hosts ever! Great conversation and expansive suggestions about where to go in Cape Town. The entire lodge is very warm and decorated with Afrocentric artwork. The room was also cozy and homely. We had an excellent overnight stay at IKhaya and would definitely return!
- Keith (10/5): Cape Town, My 2nd Time Around - We were looking for a clean safe place and area to stay. Found It!!! Rustic, Authentic, Friendly lodge. We wanted to "Rough It" without going to the wilderness. iKhaya is just the place to get that type of feeling. There's a restaurant right across the parking lot that offers a lot for the persons in your group that needs a bit of night lift. The food is truly out of this world.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Vale a localização - Hotel bem localizado, mas as fotos são melhores do que a realidade. Falta um pouco de cuidado com o hotel, mas no geral valeu o custo x beneficio
- Heike & Frank (6/5): Lage ist gut, Lodge okay (für Anspruchslose) - Das gebuchte Zimmer war belegt, so dass man uns in einem Appartement unterbringen wollte. Dieses ähnelte eher einer Dunkelkammer und war total veraltet! Ein No Go!! Nach einigem hin & her konnten wir umziehen. Das freie Appartement war okay, aber nicht mit dem gebuchten Zimmer zu vergleichen. Warum nun das Zimmer ausgebucht war, konnte nicht rekonstruiert werden. Wir hatten eine tolle Terrasse mit Blick auf den Tafelberg. Aber nochmal würden wir dort nicht buchen!
- Marilyn (10/5): Lovely lodge - Lovely lodge decorated in traditional African decor. Second floor rooms have an enclosed balcony with a sliding door; third floor rooms have an open balcony. No elevator, but the stairs are minimal and easy to navigate. Close to Company's Garden and a 10-15 minute walk to Long Street. Staff very professional and accommodating. Free breakfast, but I didn't eat, so can't comment on it. Free computer for guests to use.
- Sarah (8/5): Great view. Nice feel. Comfy beds. Nice breakfast - Loved the location and set up of the place. The African decor added to its charm. Had an amazing balcony view of table mountain and the beds were super comfy. Definitely recommend.
- Hugh (6/5): - Very friendly staff, food was quite average, the rooms were worn and shabby, needing renovation
- Nasser Diego (8/5): Nasser - Creo que se podría mejorar el aire y el wifi en todo lo demás perfecto
- Tim (10/5): Great staff - Nice atmosphere, great staff
- Jan (8/5): Worth to stay, good location - Well located, good staff and services. Balcony could be cleaned better. Rooms with Table mountain wiew can hear loud guests from the bar on the opposite corner of Dunkley square, especially on Fri/Sat.
- Karen (10/5): REcommended - Amazing
- Josh (10/5): Nice hotel, cute, nice area - The hotel had a very nice "lodge" type feeling. The staff was constantly present and looking to make life easier. They lent me, free of charge, multiple adapters for my phone and computer (mine didn't work), and were happy to accommodate any requests, such as Kosher breakfast, late check-in, and leaving my bags after check-out for the last day before picking them up on the way to the airport.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Central location. Recommend as good basic hotel.
- Verified traveler (6/5): gute Lage , nettes Team - nettes kleines Hotel,freundliches Personal und einige Restaurants-Bars gegenüber
- Alex (8/5): - was good except a noise from next door residence
- Verified traveler (10/5): Gemütliche Ausstattung,etwas Lokalkolorit - Ganz hervorragendes, aufmerksames und hilfsbereìtes Personal.
- Rahul (10/5): Great lodge - Positive: Totally loved this place. We stayed here 5 nights. The location is good - still within walking distance to main tourist spot, very close to big park. We had great view of table mountain from our balcony. The staff is very friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was also good. Neutral: Room was small, but still ok for a couple for 5 days.
- Sandra (8/5): Authentiek hotel - Ruim twee weken in dit hotel verbleven. De ligging is ideaal. Aan een rustig pleintje en toch alle bezienswaardigheden op loopafstand. De lodge is ietwat gedateerd en onze kamer was niet al te groot. Personeel was heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Grenzend aand onze kamer hadden we een balkon waar je heerlijk kon zitten met uitzicht op het pleintje. Prijs/kwaliteit verhouding goed daarom zeker een aanrader.
- Michael (10/5): Afrikanische Stimmung im Herzen von Kapstadt - Sehr gutes Guesthaus (wie Hotel geführt) mit feundlichem Personal und sehr gutem Frühstück. Gute Restaurants in der Nähe (Maria's gegenüber und Nelson's Eye ca. 10 Min Fussweg). Herrliche Sicht auf den Tafelberg und den Lions Head. Parken selten nicht auf dem Platz vor dem Hotel möglich (voll). Vorsicht! Nix im Auto lassen (wie immer in RSA)
- chantal (8/5): Bien et pas cher dans un endroit calme bien situé - .......
- Dagny (10/5): Både og. - I omtalen sto det at rommet var 31kvadratmeter og hadde balkong. Dette stemte ikke. Rommet var adskillig mindre og den såkalte balkongen var en smal utvidelse av rommet med vinduer på langveggen. Vi påpekte dette, men omtalen var tydeligvis feil i forhold til hva de kunne tilby. Dobbeltsenga var meget smal og det var vifte på gulvet som ble ganske kraftig. Bortsett fra dette var vi veldig fornøyd med stedet, god service, hyggelig atmosfære og svært god beliggenhet.
- Samantha (10/5): Great Hotel - Great hotel. Very friendly staff. We stayed over Christmas and New Years. They were always willing to help when we were trying to organise activities. Breakfast service is a little slow though. However, would definitely stay here again.
- roy (2/5): Nightmere - We arrived they asked for id I had mine my wife didn't have hers so they refused to let her in surgested we went to police station and spend 2-3 hours getting proof of id we are in our late sixties so we asked for full refund within 10 minutes we checked in capetonion with my id room 911 if anyone wants to check nice friendly staff
- Jess (8/5): - The hotel was in a pretty good location, in walking distance of the city centre. There were some great spots to eat right nearby as well, I highly recommend Maria's! The staff were friendly and helpful, and while the rooms were a little small they were comfortable, and ours included a nice balcony with views of Table Mountain. The breakfast included cereal, pastries etc and you can order eggs and meats off the menu as well. We would definitely stay again!
- Thabiso (8/5): Ikhaya Lodge centrally placed - Ikhaya staff was very friendly. The place is based in a very central location. You have all the basics that you need for a business trip. Perhaps they could put in a work desk.
- Conor (6/5): Great location but tiny room - Very small room with a lovely balcony but no aircon
- Mary (10/5): Centrally situated, beautiful views of Mountain - No problem with booking for this establishment. The staff I met were all out-standing. The room was beautifully appointed with lovely 'African' overtones. Eat to get to central Cape Town for shops etc. Great restaurants opposite hotel on the same square. Good service from shuttle taxi's. Breakfast was very good. Excellent choices of fruit, cereal, breads and cooked full breakfast together with coffee, tea and selection of juices. Excellent, excellent, excellent!!!!
- Lorraine (8/5): Nice location and great view - Great choice at a very reasonable rate - friendly and very central with great little restaurant choices walking distance
- Lerato (6/5): Mediocre accomodation - A reasonably okay stay but I don't think we'll be going back. The room was freezing cold and the wall heater made no difference. Our room safe didn't work. The location is very convenient though.
- Francois and Lindy (10/5): Fabulous stay at iKhaya Lodge! - Loved our stay at iKhaya and will most certainly be back! Fantastic value for money and perfectly situated close to the CBD. Friendly staff and free WiFi! Great!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very pleasent accomodations,staff was very helpful - Excellent experience, staff helped us out a lot when one of our party got sick, the room was very comfortable, great view of Table Mt. , parking was perfect, buffet very good, staff helped us in many ways and were so nice
- Verified traveler (10/5): What a wonderful, friendly place!! - I had a wonderful experience at Ikhaya lodge, not least because the staff was very friendly and the room was tidy and clean, with a cute little balcony with Table Mountain view. I can really recommend this place to anyone who comes to Cape Town. The hotel is very centrally located in a quiet area.
- Filip (10/5): relaxing and cosy - Very cosy place at a chic and peaceful little square, very close to downtown.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Thumbs up! - iKhaya Lodge is very quaint and the staff are very friendly. I could even use the computer available and print my tickets without hassle. It is slightly far from major tourist locations but if one does not mind lots walking that would not be a problem. There is a club/pub right opposite which contributes to noise at night if people decides to stay till late. Other than that I would come back to stay again as the place is beautiful, Table Mountain is in view and I just love the whole ambience of this place!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Pleasant lodge with good friendly staff. - No problems except some noise from a weekend evening on Dunkley Square.
- STAY (6/5): Good location - with VERY SMALL room. - Well situated and an average 3 standard of hotel. Good service. Breakfast was VERY LIMITED & VERY DISAPPOINTING! The 2nd room in the unit was so small with a VERY SMALL BATHROOM! The Sleeper Couch was in poor condition. We booked for 5 Adults, but everything in the room was ready for 4 people only, so we had to ask for an additional Towel, Pillow, Bedding..etc. EVERY day, as they removed everything once the clean the room.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Too noisy, loud music until midnight and then moving of tables and chairs for another hour while we are trying to sleep.
- Mark (10/5): All round fantastic!! - Wonderful hotel in the lovely Dunkley Square in the Gardens area of Cape Town! Less touristy area than the waterfront but easy to access the centre via Company Gardens, a short walk from the delights of Orange Street for food and entertainment and an amazing view of table mountain. Service was friendly and efficient, parking outside and we never felt unsafe. Really cannot recommend this hotel highly enough - would not want to stay anywhere else on future visits to the city!!
- Will (10/5): Gem of a place - the staff were great: friendly helpful hospitable. Location was super central. the only down side was a party at the Greek restaurant across the courtyard that went pretty late one night.
- Roy (8/5): Nice hotel in the middle of the city, - The only problem we had when leaving was that for one breakfast I ordered boiled egg which was fine, but on the last day.there was no bread so we didn't have a good meal. they charge us for the eggs but didn't do anything about the breakfast, It would have been nice not to charge us for the eggs.
- virginia (10/5): great location on a quiet square centrally located - The lodge has a large covered verandah overlooking Dunkley Square which is centrally located. We could walk to many museums, restaurants, laundry, bus stops etc.Several restaurants across the square. Staff was friendly and the head woman on days was extremely knowledgeable. Even the newer staff went out of their way to help. nice little things like sincere interest in what we did when we returned etc. Very quiet location in the heart of Cape Town. It is my favourite home away from home. Nice decor, great continental breakfast.. don't miss Maria's greek restaurant across the square !!!!
