Overview

Road Lodge Cape Town International Airport is praised for its exceptionally convenient location, being a short walk from the airport, perfect for those with early flights or late arrivals. Guests consistently mention the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms, despite some noting their smaller size. The friendly and helpful staff receive significant positive feedback, and while a shuttle isn't provided, many find the walkable distance convenient. Breakfast, available at an additional cost, is also well-regarded. Some mention outdated rooms and inconsistent experiences with cleanliness, but these are outweighed by the overwhelmingly positive comments about location and staff.

There is NO AIRPORT SHUTTLE despite what the listing says. They send you a number that you can use to book. We took an uber which was fine. The aircon was so loud it was like being next to a plane engine so I slept with the window open. There's no elevator so if you're on floor 2 (as I was) you lug your stuff up and down the stairs. There is no bottle of water in the room, you have to use a vending machine or buy one from the restaurant. That is ridiculously cheap!! I'm a frequent traveller and not usually too picky but it was not a good stay. While the rooms are small and mostly clean, I'll explore other options next time.

The hotel served our needs perfectly--an overnight stay between flights. It's proximity to the airport is great for transitioning travelers. The room was a bit dated but comfortable and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast had lots of variety and was tasty. Would stay again if flying through Cape Town and needed a quick overnight.

Convenient to airport. Safer option than early morning or late night transits. Frequent power outages for some reason.

Perfect place to stay for a quick one nighter near the airport. We were able to check in after a flight that arrived late at night, they were very nice. The breakfast was good. Would stay again.

I liked the idea that it was close to the airport. I didn’t appreciate the taxi person charging me R200,00 for transport- it was literally 3 mins away. It would be nice if the hotel had a shuttle service maybe? The breakfast should be included in the price.
