Rutland Lodge Hotel Reviews Cape Town South Africa Holiday Tour Guest House Accommodation Swimming Pool



HOTELS REVIEW - RUTLAND LODGE CAPE TOWN AFRICA
Tucked away on a quiet tree-lined street in the stylish Cape Town suburb of Oranjezicht is the luxurious 5-star Rutland Lodge Guest House, a magnificent Herbert Baker house with its Cape Dutch architecture framed against Table Mountain. Each of the 5 tastefully appointed guest suites are air-conditioned, features a walk-on balcony or leads onto a private garden and includes an en suite bathroom, pure cotton sheets and goose down duvets. The Guest House is run by owners John and Janet Higginson.

5 Star – You Bet It Is. Superbly located in the beautiful and very safe suburb of Oranjezicht (no I can’t say it either!) at the foot of Table Mountain enjoying extensive views of both mountain and city. First floor sundeck with amazing views ofTable Mountain behind a flame tree. Nice shady pool area with comfortable loungers. The location of the lodge makes it an easy drive/taxi to all parts of town, Camps Bay and the airport. Our large contemporary room (room 5) was beautifully and stylishly appointed throughout with large comfortable bed, private facilities, separate dressing room, air con, minibar and private balcony with extensive views. Furnishings were a well balanced mix of antique and modern design. Welcoming owners Janet and John deliver warm and personal service but are not intrusive – nothing is too much trouble. We were invited to their New Years Eve party and soon felt part of the family, watching the fireworks from the deck area. Excellent restaurant recommendations and booking service – taxis arranged if necessary High quality breakfast served indoor or out with proper coffee all cooked and served by friendly manager, Ross.
