We've been there for one night as the start of our one month travel trough the southern part of the African continent (South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe). It's not a very luxurous lodge and the neighbourhood doesn't look very sophisticated. But as I stated in the title it's effective and comfortable enough. The staff is friendly and the breakfast...

Once again I had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at the Saasveld, despite the weather (and staff offered me an umbrella and I was given a towel to dry my hair when I arrived!). I've been staying at Saasveld for well over 15 years, whenever I travel to Cape Town and have never been disappointed. Staff are very friendly and efficient,... More

Really great place, situated in a great neighbourhood with stores, bars and restaurants. Really friendly and fantastic staff. Facility is simple, but clean. I was there for the Argus run with my bicycle. They where very helpful with my arrangements and concerning my bike. Had great fun with the staff. Will go there again if I go back to CT.

The National Youth Orchestra was treated to a wonderful stay at Saasveld Lodge on our tour in January and then again when we were performing an opera in March. Friendly staff, great location and clean rooms - what more could we ask for. Thank you to Saasveld Lodge!

A huge THANK YOU to the lovely staff at Saasveld Lodge, who took my group of 7 in during an unscheduled 5 day layover in Cape Town. They organized air conditioning for the couple who really needed it and added mirrors and extra towels to the family room for our three ladies. Our room was clean and basic but comfy.... More

Centrally located in Kloof Street, it seemed the buzz was on in the area, easy walks to cafe society on the street, quick drive to the waterfront, safe and secure. Brilliant service from the staff, a little late night music from the street added to the ambiance. Average pricing includes a breakfast of your choice. Secure parking off street was... More

Staff very helpful and friendly. As all the previous reviews have said hotel is in a fab location and a safe area. I made last minute plans to attend a friends wedding and the only place I could find. There is a lovely coffee shop across the road and a Woolies foods. I had a street facing room, a bit... More

I recently stayed at the Saasveld during my first trip to Cape Town, and as a female travelling by myself I found the hotel to be very safe and in a great location. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and went out of their way to offer advice about where to go (and where not to). I'd definately recommend... More

This hotel is well situated within walking distance of the down town attractions. It is across the road from a grocery store and has many restaurants close by. It is basic but has all the you need and is clean. Ask for a room that faces the back and you will get a great view of table mountain (it is... More
