Excellent stay. Very welcoming owner and staff. Everyone is helpful. Nice and neat room. Great breakfast. Price/quality ratio very good. Feel free to book here.
Dennis L ~ January 2018
We stayed at the Rosedene Lodge for 10 days and enjoyed every single day. The day started with a wonderful breakfast in the semi-shade area under vines in the garden. The blooming garden and the associated pool area are an oasis of calm to relax. Sea Point itself is a suitable spot for many excursions, but the proximity to the Main Road (walking distance) is wonderful because you can do all your shopping and there are many restaurants in the immediate vicinity. Michael the host speaks German and is always helpful with tips regarding excursions, organizing your day or tips and restaurant bookings. The nice thing about this guesthouse is the individuality with which you are looked after here. Sometimes there is also a barbecue in the garden in the evening - a nice opportunity to get in touch with other guests if you want. We will definitely be back and would like to thank the great team at Rosedene Lodge.
Carsten L ~ January 2019
We spent another wonderful week in this very personally and lovingly run lodge. Michael, the owner and all the staff are very attentive and on hand with advice and action. The location in Sea Point is perfect and absolutely quiet and safe. In the morning there are fresh croissants, excellent freshly brewed coffee and everything you need to start the day off right! If you want, you can go on beautiful hikes with Michael that suit your personal constitution. Thanks again to the whole team and see you again soon!
Cornelia R ~ January 2019
Good accommodation in a central location. Walking distance to good restaurants and the Beach Road Promenade. Located in a very quiet side street. Outstanding personal, helpful hosts.
Nicole S ~ January 2023
Gladly again at any time - very friendly host and all employees, very clean. Comfortable beds and a very safe and quiet location, yet very central in Sea Point.
Susanne S ~ December 2022
Our start to a 3-week trip to South Africa in the cozy Rosedene Lodge was great. The staff here is super friendly and attentive, and the boss was very communicative and pleasant to us. We enjoyed breakfast outside, everything our hearts desired was there. Even croissants and cornflakes. The rooms are very comfortable and have their own terrace. Above all, extremely clean. So we felt very comfortable here. Thanks very much!
Music Boy ~ March 2023
We found one of Cape Town's little secrets. Amazing service and easy to get from to all that the city has to offer.
Alistair K ~ December 2017
Lovely and comfy guesthouse with awesome staff. Owner may give you a lot of helpful advice for your stay in Cape Town / South Africa.
Charles S ~ January 2020
Very kind host and a nice place.
Ahmad A ~ March 2023
Lovely room and garden. Nice staff and a ‘family’ feeling We will be back!
Anders B ~ February 2023
Thank you a lot! The stay was just perfect: The accommodation is very lovely, clean, safe and you can see much love in the detail. The team is exceptionally friendly, helpful and gives you also a lot of very good tips for day-trips, hikes and activities in and around Cape Town. In this place you can also find a lot of rest and peaceful time by relaxing in the calm and lovely pool area. It was our first time in Cape Town and Michael sat down with us, we looked at the city map, discussed our plans and talked about safe behavior in the city. That was very helpful! I have already recommended this accommodation to my mother, who will come to Cape Town soon. I hope that we can come back.
Isabel S ~ January 2023
Michael is an exceptional host. His staff attended swiftly to all our needs. Very secure place, very well laid out with lots of flowers and shrubs and pool section. Clean rooms with really comfortable beds. Two steps from restaurants and bars. Book without hesitation.
Diane H ~ February 2023
The whole staff is so kind and helpful, I felt so much at home and very safe. The pool area is very beautiful, flowers in every corner and the service is great. The room got cleaned every day. The mini bar has an outstanding selection of beverages. Towels are provided, so clean and the beds comfort made me sleep happy every night. And last but not least - thank you for the best coffee ever with the most important ingredient - love. I cant wait to come back and can highly recommend this place.
Nina C ~ January 2023
Just wow. I am so happy that I found this beautiful oasis as the last stay of my trip. It’s perfectly located in the heart of Sea Point. The yard of the property, which includes the pool, is full of beautiful flowers, plants and trees - with sun all day it is a perfect place to relax and to sunbathe. It’s really a quiet place, not a party place at all. The host Michael and his team are unbelievable helpful and nice. I can’t remember any stay were I felt so comfortable from start to end. If you have the chance to book this gem - do it and don’t wait too long.
Nick W ~ January 2023
Super locatie bij Seapoint! De kamer was schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien! Er was een lekker zwembad om einde van de middag nog even te liggen. De laatste dag (wij hadden pas een avondvlucht) mochten wij nog gratis gebruik maken van alle faciliteiten en onze spullen laten staan. Behulpzame werknemers. Op een paar minuten lopen heb je leuke restaurants, een halte van de mycity bus en de boulevard.
March 2019 Olivier Netherlands
Realmente excelente, superó nuestras espectativas. La habitación era comodisima, el servicio amabilísimo y en general todos los detalles muy cuidados. El dueño, Michael, nos trató más como invitados que como clientes. También hay que destacar que el wifi era muy bueno y muy rápido.

Sept. 2019 Matthew South Africa
Das Gaestehaus liegt recht zentral aber zugleich sehr ruhig. Die Anlage ist mit viel Aufmerksamkeit gestaltet und bietet viele praktische Details (Leseleuchten, Chip um auf das Grundstueck zu gelangen). Das Fruehstueck ist sehr vielseitig und wird bis 12h serviert; das haben wir nirgendwo so erlebt. Der Service ist sehr persoenlich, es gibt einen wunderschoenen Garten, was uns aufgrund der Citylage sehr ueberrascht hat. Den Pool konnten wir aufgrund der noch recht niedrigen Temperaturen nicht ausprobieren. Ein superschenlles WLAN hatten wir auch nicht erwartet. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.
Oct. 2019 Klaus Deutschland
Top Service, super Lage, leckeres Frühstück. Zimmer sauber und groß. Kommen gerne wieder.
Oct. 2019 Nicole Deutschland
Die Unterkunft war klasse!Wunderbar gelegen mit einem bezaubernden Pool! Direkt in der City mit allen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und sehr nah zum Strand! Auch der Gastgeber war sehr zuvorkommend. Er hat uns gute Tipps für die direkte Umgebung gegeben und vor allem für unsere Touren, die alle übererfüllt wurden! Es war eine tolle Zeit! Vielen Dank, wir kommen wieder.

We had a great stay at the Rosedene Lodge! Our two standard rooms were perfect for our bussiness trip, and the rooms were comfortable and beautifully decorated. The location is perfect - near Table Mountain, in a quiet neighborhood, and walking distance to the great shops and restaurants on Main Road, and loved the friendly staff!
Dec 2019 Nathan, South Africa
I had the studio with kitchenette. Great breakfast, good coffee, welcoming host, daily cleaning. The staff helped me out with the most simple things which made me really feel like home. Stayed here for two weeks to have some focus time for my work. Great location, everything you need in walking distance in a safe neighbourhood.
Dec. 2019 Immelda, Netherlands

You’ve got it just right. Thanks for a relaxing stay. Now I must go home & identify that large butterfly that kept escaping my camera.

Juan & Ricky, Argentina – November 2004
Wir hatten nicht wirklich das Gefuehl, “fremd” zu sein. Es wra mehr als nur B&B, es war hier ein zu Hause in der Ferne. Das drueckt sicher unser Wohlgefuehl bei Dir aus. Wir danken fuer Deine herzliche Gastfreundschaft und das Du immer fuer uns da warst Wir waeren gern laenger geblieben.

Sometimes there is also a barbecue in the garden in the evening - a nice opportunity to get in touch with other guests if you want. We will definitely be back and would like to thank the great team at Rosedene Lodge.
Carsten L ~ January 2019
We spent another wonderful week in this very personally and lovingly run lodge. Michael, the owner and all the staff are very attentive and on hand with advice and action. The location in Sea Point is perfect and absolutely quiet and safe. In the morning there are fresh croissants, excellent freshly brewed coffee and everything you need to start the day off right! If you want, you can go on beautiful hikes with Michael that suit your personal constitution. Thanks again to the whole team and see you again soon!
Cornelia R ~ January 2019
Good accommodation in a central location. Walking distance to good restaurants and the Beach Road Promenade. Located in a very quiet side street. Outstanding personal, helpful hosts.
Nicole S ~ January 2023
Gladly again at any time - very friendly host and all employees, very clean. Comfortable beds and a very safe and quiet location, yet very central in Sea Point.
Susanne S ~ December 2022
Our start to a 3-week trip to South Africa in the cozy Rosedene Lodge was great. The staff here is super friendly and attentive, and the boss was very communicative and pleasant to us. We enjoyed breakfast outside, everything our hearts desired was there. Even croissants and cornflakes. The rooms are very comfortable and have their own terrace. Above all, extremely clean. So we felt very comfortable here. Thanks very much!
Music Boy ~ March 2023
We found one of Cape Town's little secrets. Amazing service and easy to get from to all that the city has to offer.
Alistair K ~ December 2017
Lovely and comfy guesthouse with awesome staff. Owner may give you a lot of helpful advice for your stay in Cape Town / South Africa.
Charles S ~ January 2020
Very kind host and a nice place.
Ahmad A ~ March 2023
Lovely room and garden. Nice staff and a ‘family’ feeling We will be back!
Anders B ~ February 2023
Thank you a lot! The stay was just perfect: The accommodation is very lovely, clean, safe and you can see much love in the detail. The team is exceptionally friendly, helpful and gives you also a lot of very good tips for day-trips, hikes and activities in and around Cape Town. In this place you can also find a lot of rest and peaceful time by relaxing in the calm and lovely pool area. It was our first time in Cape Town and Michael sat down with us, we looked at the city map, discussed our plans and talked about safe behavior in the city. That was very helpful! I have already recommended this accommodation to my mother, who will come to Cape Town soon. I hope that we can come back.
Isabel S ~ January 2023
Michael is an exceptional host. His staff attended swiftly to all our needs. Very secure place, very well laid out with lots of flowers and shrubs and pool section. Clean rooms with really comfortable beds. Two steps from restaurants and bars. Book without hesitation.
Diane H ~ February 2023
The whole staff is so kind and helpful, I felt so much at home and very safe. The pool area is very beautiful, flowers in every corner and the service is great. The room got cleaned every day. The mini bar has an outstanding selection of beverages. Towels are provided, so clean and the beds comfort made me sleep happy every night. And last but not least - thank you for the best coffee ever with the most important ingredient - love. I cant wait to come back and can highly recommend this place.
Nina C ~ January 2023
Just wow. I am so happy that I found this beautiful oasis as the last stay of my trip. It’s perfectly located in the heart of Sea Point. The yard of the property, which includes the pool, is full of beautiful flowers, plants and trees - with sun all day it is a perfect place to relax and to sunbathe. It’s really a quiet place, not a party place at all. The host Michael and his team are unbelievable helpful and nice. I can’t remember any stay were I felt so comfortable from start to end. If you have the chance to book this gem - do it and don’t wait too long.
Nick W ~ January 2023
Super locatie bij Seapoint! De kamer was schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien! Er was een lekker zwembad om einde van de middag nog even te liggen. De laatste dag (wij hadden pas een avondvlucht) mochten wij nog gratis gebruik maken van alle faciliteiten en onze spullen laten staan. Behulpzame werknemers. Op een paar minuten lopen heb je leuke restaurants, een halte van de mycity bus en de boulevard.
March 2019 Olivier Netherlands
Realmente excelente, superó nuestras espectativas. La habitación era comodisima, el servicio amabilísimo y en general todos los detalles muy cuidados. El dueño, Michael, nos trató más como invitados que como clientes. También hay que destacar que el wifi era muy bueno y muy rápido.

Hot tub was very cool to have in the room , the lodge is unique and Very well equipped for a comfy stay, loved it
Sept. 2019 Matthew South Africa
Das Gaestehaus liegt recht zentral aber zugleich sehr ruhig. Die Anlage ist mit viel Aufmerksamkeit gestaltet und bietet viele praktische Details (Leseleuchten, Chip um auf das Grundstueck zu gelangen). Das Fruehstueck ist sehr vielseitig und wird bis 12h serviert; das haben wir nirgendwo so erlebt. Der Service ist sehr persoenlich, es gibt einen wunderschoenen Garten, was uns aufgrund der Citylage sehr ueberrascht hat. Den Pool konnten wir aufgrund der noch recht niedrigen Temperaturen nicht ausprobieren. Ein superschenlles WLAN hatten wir auch nicht erwartet. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.
Oct. 2019 Klaus Deutschland
Top Service, super Lage, leckeres Frühstück. Zimmer sauber und groß. Kommen gerne wieder.
Oct. 2019 Nicole Deutschland
Die Unterkunft war klasse!Wunderbar gelegen mit einem bezaubernden Pool! Direkt in der City mit allen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und sehr nah zum Strand! Auch der Gastgeber war sehr zuvorkommend. Er hat uns gute Tipps für die direkte Umgebung gegeben und vor allem für unsere Touren, die alle übererfüllt wurden! Es war eine tolle Zeit! Vielen Dank, wir kommen wieder.

We had a great stay at the Rosedene Lodge! Our two standard rooms were perfect for our bussiness trip, and the rooms were comfortable and beautifully decorated. The location is perfect - near Table Mountain, in a quiet neighborhood, and walking distance to the great shops and restaurants on Main Road, and loved the friendly staff!
Dec 2019 Nathan, South Africa
I had the studio with kitchenette. Great breakfast, good coffee, welcoming host, daily cleaning. The staff helped me out with the most simple things which made me really feel like home. Stayed here for two weeks to have some focus time for my work. Great location, everything you need in walking distance in a safe neighbourhood.
Dec. 2019 Immelda, Netherlands
So eine schöne, erholsame Unterkunft haben wir nicht erwartet. Michael kennt die Bedürfnisse seiner Gäste und hat die passenden Angebote. Das beste Frühstück auf unserer Rundreise. Das Personal war äußerst zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

You’ve got it just right. Thanks for a relaxing stay. Now I must go home & identify that large butterfly that kept escaping my camera.

Lieber Michael! Im Januar 08 bzw. 7 Seiten vor dieser hier hatten wir versprochen zurueckzukehren. Nun sind 15 Tage schon wieder um; ein paar weniger Ausfluege als letztes Mal, aber dafuer auch erholter.
Gruss Thorben & Nancy - 2008
Thanks for the great stay. Lovely place and very good tips for what to do and where to go!
Joyce and Anouch - 2008
A wonderful stay. Tea on tap and fantastic staff. Our thanks to you all for a memorable and comfortable stay. Extra thanks you for Michael, his help with planning was invaluable. The ‘Da Capo’ restaurant was lovely and the food great, good luck with its future.
Pauline & James, Buckinghamshire UK - 2007
A longer stay perhaps than usual (6 weeks on and off). Many thanks to Michael for arranging our itinerary so well and his attention to our every need and comfort. A wonderful three month in the Cape. We will return!
Charles & Chris, Cyprus - 5. March 2007
Michael, your middle name should be hospitality. Our stay here could not have been more comfortable and pleasant. Many thanks for all your help & good advice. Great staff too!!

Thank you for everything…Rosedene was the perfect ‘grande finale’ for our journey through South Africa! Happy New Year,
Amie & Philipp - December 2006
Thank you so much for your great hospitality, kindness and helpfulness. What a super start and ending to our wonderful South African holiday-where would we have been without you?

Mike, no words to thank you enough for your attention and care. We’ll see you in Buenos Aires soon, and who knows, in Cape Town even sooner.
Juan & Ricky, Argentina – November 2004
Wir hatten nicht wirklich das Gefuehl, “fremd” zu sein. Es wra mehr als nur B&B, es war hier ein zu Hause in der Ferne. Das drueckt sicher unser Wohlgefuehl bei Dir aus. Wir danken fuer Deine herzliche Gastfreundschaft und das Du immer fuer uns da warst Wir waeren gern laenger geblieben.
Corinna & Joachim, October 2004

Excellent stay. Very welcoming owner and staff. Everyone is helpful. Nice and neat room. Great breakfast. Price/quality ratio very good. Feel free to book here.
Dennis L ~ January 2018
We stayed at the Rosedene Lodge for 10 days and enjoyed every single day. The day started with a wonderful breakfast in the semi-shade area under vines in the garden. The blooming garden and the associated pool area are an oasis of calm to relax. Sea Point itself is a suitable spot for many excursions, but the proximity to the Main Road (walking distance) is wonderful because you can do all your shopping and there are many restaurants in the immediate vicinity. Michael the host speaks German and is always helpful with tips regarding excursions, organizing your day or tips and restaurant bookings. The nice thing about this guesthouse is the individuality with which you are looked after here. Sometimes there is also a barbecue in the garden in the evening - a nice opportunity to get in touch with other guests if you want.
