Stay

The Red Corner House is lovely! Beautiful, spacious, tastefully decorated and practical. It was perfect for our family of four! The location is great: next door to nice restaurants, bars and a supermarket and within walking distance from the city center, Bo-Kaap and the V&A Waterfront. It is also easy to leave town if you are driving to visit the province and you can park close by. Guido and Henk, just a couple of houses away, were always very helpful.We had an excellent stay - and it really felt like home!

Warm and friendly, amazing apartment Guido and Henk were nice. We received great advice on how to get there and what about a great meal. We then moved to Emma's self-catering apartment which is fabulous, with everything you need including even more AMAZING roof terrace! The neighborhood is cute, hip, convenient and we felt very safe. Highly recommended.

We had a great stay in Cape Town at the Purple House! The hosts, Guido and Henk, are running the lodge with care and passion, and as guest you can see and feel that. They helped us ongoingly in various questions we had (e.g. taxi bookings etc.). The breakfast was lovely prepared on the terrace, and the roof top terrace is great as well. The overall location is perfectly located - there are bars and restaurants around the block. We would chose to stay at Purple House again, when we will come to Cape Town again! Guido and Henk, many thanks to you for taking care of us and the nice conversations we had!
