Everything about Victorskloof Lodge was above expectation - the location, accommodation and amenities were first class, with the views over Hout Bay a constant source of wonder. The hosts were very accommodating, the staff first class, and the breakfast perfect for setting us all up for the day! Highly recommended all around.

Return trip
We came back to the hotel where we'd stayed a few days previously - what higher recommendation can you get?

Ticked every box
Beautiful location; warm welcome; amazing staff; comfortable bed; well equipped room; superb made-to-order breakfast; restful stay. We were frustrated that the hotel was fully booked when we tried to extend our stay, but managed to go back a few days later. So glad we found this hotel - we had a simply wonderful stay.

Heavenly Accomodation
This was one of the most spectacular places I've ever stayed! I can't say enough about it. When I saw the room and the veranda, I felt like I had died and gone to heaven. The staff were warm and welcoming and the breakfasts were ample and delicious. It is the only place I would consider staying in Hout Bay.

Sehr nette Begrüßung bei der Ankunft. Das Zimmer lag im Obergeschoss mit direktem Blick auf das Meer. Sehr gute Betten und großes Zimmer. Waren insgesamt frei Tage dort und haben zahlreiche Ausflüge auf den Tafelberg, Cape Point usw unternommen. Alles gut von der Lodge zu erreichen. Das Frühstück war sehr gut und abwechslungsreich. Leider war der WLAN-Empfang für eurpäische Verhältnisse sehr schlecht. Ansonsten war es ein toller Aufenthalt. Kommen bestimmt mal wieder...

lodge paisible à Houtbay avec une magnifique vue
Excellent souvenir du Victorskloofe lodge. Le personnel était adorable. La vue de notre chambre et de la terrasse du petit déjeuner était incroyable. Le petit déjeuner était varié et excellent. Notre chambre était grande, très agréable pour une famille. Notre chambre avait une immense terrasse avec transats pour se relaxer et apprécier la vue. Mon avis ne concerne que cette chambre familiale. J’ai cru voir que d’autres chambres n’avaient pas la chance d’être aussi bien placées . S’il devait y avoir des améliorations à faire selon moi, il s’agirait essentiellement de la literie : les lits des enfants grinçaient beaucoup et les oreillers et couettes auraient pu être mieux. Il était également impossible d’obscurcir complètement la chambre, certaines ouvertures n’ayant ni stores ni rideaux. Malgré ces petits détails qui pourraient être améliorés, notre souvenir au Victorkloofe lodge est excellent. Merci à Lilien et Derek pour la qualité de leur accueil.

Super Hotel mir atemberaubendem Blick
Das Personal ist super freundlich, die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und von unserem Zimmer aus hatten wir einen wirklich gigantischen Blick! Von Hout Bay kann man super zum Kap der guten Hoffnung fahren und am Wochenende ist ein toller Markt am Hafen !

Not recommended
We stayed our last 3 days in SA in this B&B. As they said it’s all about the view... indeed it’s beautiful view but that’s it, all the others stuff don’t match the standards that you can get in Cape Town or around
