Very relaxing stay for 1 night in Cape Town. Massive room, massive comfy bed, big shower, very clean, simple but tasty breakfast, and in a great location a few minutes walk from SeaPoint
Great first stay at Head South Lodge!
Very much enjoyed my first stay at Head South Lodge! The guesthouse is in a great location - close to Sea Point and the promenade along the water, but also 20-30 min walk to V&A Waterfront and a quick 10 min Uber to City Bowl. Bed was very comfortable, WiFi worked well, they have secure parking in front of the guesthouse. All of the staff were so kind, felt very safe here, and excellent breakfasts. I will be back!
Customer service was excellent, and hotel staff were accommodating and beyond friendly. Our room had a pleasant balcony, and we easily Ubered from the hotel to wherever we needed to go in the city. Breakfast buffet and the coffee options were also excellent!:) We did struggle with not being able to contact the lodge on our way in (we tried reaching out through the Expedia app but got no response), as we hoped for airport pickup or transportation suggestions. Unfortunately we did not hear back and ended up getting massively ripped off by a taxi who charged us about 4x the normal rate. Our advice: uber uber uber!!

Very comfortable stay, staff friendly and helpful, room was spacious modern and clean, breakfast was good.
Great location - a short walk to the promenade by Green Point lighthouse.
There is a hot breakfast which is delicious and made to order.
The front terrace is a nice place to sit out in the evenings, and there is an honesty bar.
Place feels secure with a member of staff always on duty by the front gate.
Very friendly and helpful front desk staff. Big thanks to Lee :)
The staff were both professional and kind. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable. The breakfasts were well done and I loved that we were able to serve ourselves drinks and snacks on the honor system.

Comfortable stay in a great/central location. Pool was sunny and the vibe was good.
I love the convenience and cleanliness of the lodge; staff was very helpful and set me up with a local tour guide to see the coastline. Breakfast was always delicious!

verified t.partnerFeb 18, 2019 We loved this place. Excellent location. Breakfast was mindblowing... hot bufffet breakfast... and very clean
Stayed here with my mum as part of our trip to Cape Town. The area of Green Point was quite central to the V&A which we loved. The hotel had such an open, friendly, welcoming atmosphere, and the rooms, reception, pool and bar area is so chilled out and lovely to relax in. I would certainly stay here again, and recommend Head South Lodge to anyone who comes to visit Cape Town, regardless of the duration of their stay.
They'll take all your money if you cannot arrive.
Be careful paying in advance because if anything happens to you to cause you not to be able to go, you will not get any refund. Instead you'll get pointed to some obscure t's and c's and a blunt email. I did not like the experience. I'm not asking for favours, but a slightly sympathetic tone to the business like email would have been appreciated, even if you help yourself to 100% of the bill for a non-arrival. Very disappointed.
Great room and friendly service
