Myself and my girlfriend (late 20's / early 30's) stayed here for 5 nights in October 2009 at the recommendation of our travel agent and we were not disappointed. Our room was exceptionally comfortable with a fantastic AC system (maybe this is standard in SA - no idea!) and was cleaned to perfection. Never actually seen the cleaning staff which... more

We spent 4 nights in Derwent House as part of our honeymoon. I had originally wanted to book another hotel but they did not have availability. So I booked Derwent House and was worried I wouldn't like it as much as the other. Luckily it far exceeded our expectations. Derwent House is absolutely beautiful, the pictures on their website does... more

The Derwent was the first place we stayed in South Africa. The lounge area was stylish and comfortable with a decked balcony next to the pool enabling you to have breakfast outside, and gentle African music giving added ambience. Tea, coffee and cake were available at all times and included in the price, as well as port and sherry for... more

A few months ago I was getting some flak from a workmate about taking advantage of TripAdvisor without contributing myself! Well, our stay at Derwent House has spurred me into action. If you are like me, and you scour TripAdvisor for reviews from people local to you -in this case Scotland - then take assurances from this one. This is... more

We stayed at Derwent House for 7 nights and used it as a base for visiting Cape Town and surrounding areas. We loved every minute and can't wait to return. Jo and Carol have created a peaceful hotel with stylish decor and interesting pieces of African art. We immediately felt at home. The clientele was almost all couples while we... more

Our trip to Cape Town started at the International Airport with Tania - our driver laid on by the hotel to meet us off the flight. Tania provided an interesting and informative ride to the hotel. I had not been to Cape Town since the early 90s so it was good to see some significant differences. Tania updated me with... more

My wife and I are almost speechless after three wonderful nights at this most charming B&B. The Derwent House has it all.....beautiful decor, scrumptious breakfasts and afternoon teas, attentive and constantly smiling staff, owners with a sense of humor, and great location. Top notch accommodation from which to explore the gorgeous city of Cape Town and the southern Cape. more

We stayed 6 nights at Derwent House and could not have been happier. Our room, though smallish, was extremely comfortable. There is a huge lounge/sitting area with free internet access and lots of interesting reading material, so there is no need for a big bedroom. The breakfasts were delicious, and we loved the fact that cake and tea/coffee were available... more

The main downside to this hotel for us was the size of the bedroom. We stayed in room 2 which was very small and cramped with not enough room to leave a suitcase on the floor. The room had a bath tub and shower over which is not even in a tiled area so the whole floor gets soaked. To... more
