About

Prince Lodge - Cape Town

Prince Lodge sits on Prince Street in Oranjezicht, within Cape Town’s City Bowl district and with Table Mountain as its backdrop. The property is a compact guesthouse rather than a full-service hotel, with a patio, outdoor dining area, and a sitting area for guests. The three available room types range from a Standard Twin to a self-catering Three-Bedroom Townhouse, the latter with a balcony and garden view.

Rooms come with tea and coffee facilities, electric blankets for cooler evenings, flat-screen TVs, and parquet or similar flooring. A shared Wi-Fi connection is available in public areas, and the check-in window runs from 14:00 to 19:00. With a 9.4 guest rating from 18 reviews, it is a small, well-regarded option for travellers who value a calm, home-like setting.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Outstanding guest rating — A 9.4 out of 10 from 18 reviews places Prince Lodge well above the Cape Town average of 8.1.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only possible between 14:00 and 19:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
  • No breakfast or bar — The property does not list dining facilities such as breakfast service or a bar, so guests need to plan meals independently.
  • Relatively few reviews — The rating is based on 18 reviews, a small sample size, so the score may not fully represent broader guest experiences.

The bottom line
