Brookdale guest house is very clean . The young lad who cleaned my room and topped up my coffee sachets sail was amazing so thank you . I would very easily exchange my cleaning lady at home for him . ( Don’t tell her I said that 😂) The property is extremely safe and secure. It is about 15 mins drive from Airport and 20 mins drive to V&A Waterfront. A 10 min walk will get you to Howard’s Mall where there is a supermarket, restaurants, Fast Foods , hairdressers, laundromat, Woolworth and coffee shop . A very peaceful place to stay

1ere nuit à Cap Town

1 ère étape en Afrique du Sud, nous avions cherché un hôtel à proximité de l’aéroport pour une correspondance le lendemain matin. Notre taxi Jean Luc commandé par l’établissement était là, très sympathique. Arrivée à l’hôtel Raymond nous a accueilli avec beaucoup de gentillesse, malgré l’horaire tardif vol AF890 arv 22h30, soit 23h45 à l’hôtel. Un super petit déjeuner fait maison avec vu sur le jardin et la piscine en compagnie d’un perroquet farceur, puis c’était déjà l’heure de repartir pour l’aéroport, tout a été parfaitement dans les temps et une vraie attention de la part des propriétaires, grand merci à eux Valérie

We loved staying at Brookdale House. Everything was perfect, especially the warmth welcome and special attention from the owners. Small touches and attention for details made us very happy during our nice but too short stay. The breakfast is excellent and homemade bread to die for. Thanks so much Kevin and Herman !
