During our trip to South Africa we stayed at station house twice: 6 days in the beginning of a trip and another unplanned night after a car accident where we got injured. The staff was excellent and was so kind to arrange a late check out as we needed to rest before the long trip back. Breakfast in the restaurant is excellent, roof top terrace spectacular and the neighborhood a safe and good pick for anyone who wants to enjoy a relaxed time in Cape Town.

The name of the hotel is exactly what to expect: coming home. Friendly and helpful staff, spacious rooms, extremely clean and functional hotel, amazing breakfast with view over the sea, super safe area with plenty of restaurants nearby. I was there with my 12 year old daughter. We loved the experience and highly recommend this hotel!! ❤️

Our stay was great! The location was very convenient—easy to access the city center. We really enjoyed that there were plenty of great cafés, restaurants, and bistros within walking distance, along with essential shops like a pharmacy and grocery stores. The apartment itself was cozy, well-equipped, and very clean, making us feel right at home. The host was incredibly helpful and always available for any questions, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable stay. Overall, a great experience, and we would be happy to stay here again when visiting Cape Town!

Nice place with very comfortable and clean rooms and bathrooms. Excellent breakfast as well. The owners, Imke and Michael were very welcoming and made sure that we had everything we needed. Since we had an early flight to catch, they were up early to serve breakfast at 5:45 am. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to stay.

We spent our first two nights at Loloho Lodge and it was the perfect start to our journey. The lodge is peaceful, spotless, and ideally located, but what made our stay truly exceptional was the host and owner — without a doubt one of the best we’ve ever encountered. Incredibly welcoming, helpful, and genuinely caring, he made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. His attention to detail and passion for hospitality were evident in everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the area. Absolutely recommended!
