Wifi wasnt working on the first night and no hairdrier in the room. But it was convenient for my training location so acceptable. Mattress was comfortable, heater worked and it was clean. ##### Gaynor Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel Jan 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very friendly forthcoming staff, wonderful friendly service and true South African warm hearted wonderful style and experience. ##### Daniel Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kernell Dec 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice scenery ##### Kernell Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dee Dec 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff are the best. They made my stay fantastic. The living quarters were great, unfortunately I was right near the kitchen which is quite noisey. The room was a little cramped because of the awkward corner it was in. But that didn't take away from the lovely experience I had. Very attentive and friendly staff from the front desk to the kitchen to housekeeping. The art and quarters in the main communal area were beautiful. I would definately go back. ##### Dee Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cobus May 15, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Great location. ##### Cobus Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Tembeka Jan 9, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort They said we were making noise while we were not even there we also ran out of toilet papers we waited for 5 hours to get them clean our room ##### Tembeka Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Amanda Feb 20, 2023 #### Potential to be great - but not quite there yet The lodge has great potential, but management needs to focus on the detail. On arrival, there was no water in the en-suite bathroom. The kettle in the room was filthy, and I had to request a clean one from reception. But most disappointing was that the room was not connected to the generator like the rest of the lodge was, and I was not informed of this when booking or when checking in. Should I stay here again I would really like to see that these issues have been dealt with. ##### Amanda Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### William Feb 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Grumpy 1 If a table / work surface is provided a chair might be helpful. 2If the room has an adjoining door, it should be more soundproof. 3What is the point of a winter weight duvet on a bed during a South African Summer.? Solve 2 + 3 and I might actually have been able to sleep in the bed provided. ##### William Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 20, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Ok good staff but room need more cleaniness.close to airport ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachelle Oct 31, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cozy Lodge The lodge was situated not too far from Cape Town. The rooms were cosy and beds were so comfortable! Would go there again anytime! ##### Rachelle Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randall, Vancouver Canada Sep 4, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The lady at the front desk was wonderful to deal with. Breakfast was included and they exceeded my expectations. The staff were lovely. I got in late and they waited up for me (did call them about month before). Had to fetch my frail mother from an old age home nearby. The facility and services exceeded the price. Great value. Randall. Canada. ##### Randall Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### David Sep 27, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pretty good There was a mix-up of some kind when attempting to check in, where we were told our booking was cancelled despite it being confirmed on hotels.com website they were able to rectify this and check us into a different room. Following this our stay was uneventful, the room was large, the bed comfy and the breakfast was good. The area where it is located is a little out of the way, but the hotel has tall security gates around the property and secured parking.. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Sep 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew Apr 13, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was perfect as it was close to the business location, clean room, friendly staff and a spacious room. Will stay here again when I have business in Bellville again. ##### Andrew ### 8/10 Good #### Christopher Feb 26, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very comfy Very nice rooms and great breakfast... checkin was a bit confusing, but friendly. ##### Christopher ### 6/10 Okay #### Leif Feb 24, 2017 Liked: Staff & service #### Overnatningssted. Ifgl beskrivelsen var der restsurant - men der skal bestilles mad dagen før og vi kom kl 19. Det stod IKKE i Hotel.com beskrivelse. Dog var der ret få km til nærmeste spisested. ##### Leif ### 8/10 Good #### BERTRAND Jan 21, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hôtel confortable proche de l'aéroport, excellent service. ##### BERTRAND ### 8/10 Good #### Richard Jan 1, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Stayed here due to proximity to airport. The property is deceptively expansive with lots of interesting art work in several buildings. Breakfast was substantial. This is on the way to the wine country. Nicer locations in the wine country itself. ##### Richard ### 6/10 Okay #### wayne Dec 28, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort The actual property was basically good, had a small pool and an area for relaxing, plus secure parking. The close surrounding area was not desirable at all. But if you have a car it was easy to get to food restaurants etc. ##### wayne ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Dec 22, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Gutes Hotel im Standrand von Cape Town War knapp eine Woche dort.

It was just on the spur of the moment booking and I will definitely go back. ##### Nicol ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Sep 14, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort nice location, but a bit far away from Cape town city centre ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 6, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hidden Gem 20 minutes from Cape Town Airport The Balmoral Lodge is a hidden gem whose oasis of serenity is only a 20minute drive from Cape Town airport. Why stay at an over priced and impersonal run-of-the-mill airport hotel? You could be sipping cocktails instead next to a beautiful turquoise pool, under a uniquely designed South African"lapa" With an abundance of friendly, caring staff; spacious accommodation that tastefully reflects the African culture; an extensive breakfast buffet included in your stay (or add-on a dinner) at prices that don't blow the budget - the Balmoral Lodge has no trouble holding its own against many so called "superior" hotels. I give the BL TWO Thumbs UP and am happy to say that I have plans to book back here again next year! ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 2, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Home away from home Very charming lodge. Staff go out of their way to make the stay super pleasant. Great breakfast too. ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Radisson RED V&A Waterfront, Cape Town](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Radisson-RED-Hotel-VA-Waterfront-Cape-Town.h18644202.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Canmore](https://www.expedia.ca/Canmore-Hotels.d10131.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Royalton Riviera Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Royalton-Riviera-Cancun-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h8655945.Hotel-Information) > > [The Onyx Apartment Hotel by NEWMARK](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Onyx-Apartment-Hotel.h28825118.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Cape Town Foreshore](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Cape-Town-Foreshore.h4623642.Hotel-Information) > > [Southern Sun The Cullinan](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Southern-Sun-The-Cullinan.h118030.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Hotel and Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Kitchener-Hotels-Cambridge-Hotel-And-Conference-Centre.h1661206.Hotel-Information) > > [Oude Werf Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Oude-Werf-Hotel.h2720474.Hotel-Information) > > [Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Sea Point](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Protea-Hotel-By-Marriott-Cape-Town-Sea-Point.h533915.Hotel-Information) > > [The Portswood Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Portswood-VA-Waterfront.h526896.Hotel-Information) > > [The Commodore Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Commodore-Hotel.h83744.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Hamilton - Stoney Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Hamilton-Stoney-Creek.h1399.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Cape-Town-Waterfront.h29305328.Hotel-Information) > > [Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront Breakwater Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Protea-Hotel-By-Marriott-Cape-Town-Waterfront-Breakwater-Lodge.h663635.Hotel-Information) > > [The Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Twelve-Apostles-Hotel-And-Spa.h548889.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Monte Carlo Inn Barrie Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Barrie-Hotels-Monte-Carlo-Inn-Barrie-Suites.h2335224.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-The-Bay-Hotel.h18132.Hotel-Information) > > [One&Only Cape Town](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-OneOnly-Cape-Town.h2442736.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel, Cape Town](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Mount-Nelson.h19437.Hotel-Information) > > [L'Hermitage Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-LHermitage-Hotel.h1968637.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunsquare Cape Town City Bowl](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-SunSquare-Cape-Town-City-Bowl.h19918386.Hotel-Information) > > [President Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-President-Hotel.h526107.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sgn/vancouver-to-ho-chi-minh-city) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Nairobi (NBO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/nbo/toronto-to-nairobi) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/cun/montreal-to-cancun) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/mco/halifax-to-orlando) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Atlanta](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Hartsfield-Jackson-Atlanta-Intl.d5002305.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Durham Region](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Durham-Region.d3000651856.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Detroit](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Detroit.d178255.Travel-Guide-Activities)
