Unbelievable set up and so quiet, yet so very close to the city, V&A Waterfront and all other attractions – wonderfully decorated (love the eclectic touches and furniture combinations). Excellent service, great breakfasts on the terrace - Perfect holiday ever. more

I was slightly disappointed by Blackheath Lodge. The website set some high expectations which it didn't quite achieve. The rooms are nice and functional but not as glossy as the website.

What a treat. My girlfriend and I spent 2 nights at Blackheath Lodge in a combined birthday celebration. In dealing with Antony and Michelle whilst making our booking made us realise that we had made the right choice of guesthouse. Oh my, we were so not disappointed.

We have stayed at a number of different places in Cape Town (and around the world for that matter) and find that Blackheath ranks amongst the finest. It's a lovely facility and run exceedingly well by Antony and John who strive to make the entire experience - both in the guesthouse and in Cape Town - the very best. The... more

I have been remiss in writing my review for Blackheath, but when a friend of mine wanted suggestions on where to stay in Cape Town I mentioned Blackheath and told him to go on the Trip Advisor site and check their rating. Much to my surprise I saw a very negative review so I wanted to let everyone know that... more

Very attractive, charming, well-located guest house. The proprietors and staff were warm, helpful, professional and accommodating. We would certainly recommend Blackheath Lodge to other travelers. more
