We had a great stay with Bruce in Cape Town. The Rose Lodge is so cute, with very comfortable beds, a delicious breakfast, and a location convenient to the city center. Bruce was incredibly helpful both before we arrived and once we were in town. He helped us confirm some last minute details for our trip, and was relentless in... more

I will never stay in this place again. The owner, Bruce is one of the most unpleasant persons I've ever met. He was so rude, unhelpfull and if you ask him for something he sulks! The kitchen was not cleaned properly with some of the dishes still dirty. The staircase to the upper rooms are so dangerous some of the... more

I started my three week break to S.A. at Rose Lodge and it was a great relief to arrive at a very friendly venue after 15 hours of travel. Bruce will arrange airport transfers, which after a long flight is reassuring to know that transport will be there to transfer you to Rose Lodge.The standard of the two rooms are... more

We spent two weeks in South Africa in November 2009. Somewhere along Route 62 we were welcomed by the slogan "Arrive as guests, leave as friends." However, nowhere was this more true than at Rose Lodge. Thanks to Bruce - and his two dogs Coco and Teddy - for fantastic hospitality and help with all kinds of practicalities during our... more

Last week was the second time I stayed with Coco, Teddy and Bruce, and it was as good as the first time. The rooms are very comfortable and extremely clean. You sleep well in comfortable bed in a quiet neighbourhood. Very good bathrooms. Wireless Internet is available in tastefully decorated rooms. Bruce is more than a host - he is... more

We've stayed in the Suite in Rose Lodge twice now , in 2006 and 2009 and hope to visit from Australia again. Rose Lodge is conveniently located in the Bo Kaap district which is a two minute walk from the centre of the city and a culturally interesting area itself. Rose Lodge is comfortable, light and airy, very clean and... more

I don't think you could ever find a better B&B experience than Rose Lodge and the added enjoyment of meeting and dining with wonderful people from Australia, Denmark, Holland and England was outstanding. Bruce is a fantastic host and you'll love his beautiful home and delightful dogs - Teddy and Coco!!! more

We enjoyed our stay at Rose Lodge very much. Bruce and his canine companions were charming hosts. The Lodge is in a really convenient spot, whether you are on foot and going into town, or have a car and want to get out of town. Our room was very pleasant and comfortable, and breakfast was very good, and Bruce had... more
