We returned to Derwent House after 10 years and were delighted about our stay here again. Staff is extremely helpful and personable. Breakfast is delicious, and we slept well.

Great Week in Cape Town while at Derwent House

I stayed at Derwent House for a week and absolutely loved it. It has that rare feeling of being both beautifully run and genuinely homely. The staff were lovely, attentive, and always happy to help.
So many little details stood out. The coffee and breakfasts were excellent, the pool and hot tub were lovely, and the dessert snack bar, evening soups, hot water bottles on cold nights, and nicely turned-down rooms made it feel really welcoming. On stormy Cape Town days, the fireplace was a perfect place to sit and read.
The location is also hard to beat. It is in a quiet, safe area with parking and security, Kloof Street is a two-minute walk away, and it is an easy Uber to the V&A Waterfront, Camps Bay, or Sea Point. You can even hike up toward Table Mountain straight from the hotel if you are feeling keen.
The team were also great for local recommendations, and the hotel seems to attract a lively and interesting mix of guests of all ages from all corners of the world, which added to the atmosphere.
A beautiful, thoughtful, very clean, and very comfortable place to stay in Cape Town. Highly recommend.

More than a hotel

A fantastic hotel with a great location and amazing staff. The rooms are unique and comfortable. The breakfast is excellent including a daily special. From the moment you walk in the door you feel welcome and comfortable. A big thank you to everyone at Derwent House for making our first time in South Africa memorable. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Cape Town and will recommend it to anyone traveling to South Africa.
