My husband and I stayed at the Derwent House for 5 nights over our honeymoon and we could not recommend it more! From the second we arrived, we felt like we were at home. Patience, Luca, Adrian, and the entire Derwent staff welcomed us with open arms and were so kind and gracious. They also provided us with great insight into the city and gave us great recommendations for things to do and places to eat (truly every dinner they suggested was wonderful!). The property and rooms are clean and uniquely decorated. The hotel is also located in a great part of Cape Town. You are very central to most major attractions and are walking distance to Kloof Street with great shops, restaurants, and bars. We hope to come back to Cape Town one day and would definitely stay here again!

A little gem of a guesthouse. We really enjoyed our four night stay here. The staff are so welcoming and friendly and go out of their way to do everything they can for you. Breakfast is fresh and delicious, the honesty bar is a nice touch, the afternoon cake was always delicious and the welcome home drink in the evening was always a nice treat.

The room was spacious and very clean. The pool area well equipped if not anything fancy, but perfect for a few hours a day. Location is great with loads of restaurants and bars a short walk away. Thanks for a great few days :)

We had two amazing stays at the Derwent House Hotel during our trip to South Africa.

All the team were super friendly and helpful. We really felt part of the family whilst we were there. They really took time to get to know us and our interests. Their recommendations for activities and restaurants were outstanding, as well as the personal touches really helped make our holiday extra special. This was all capped off by a special Birthday Braii with Luca, Anahid, Armin and some other guests on the final evening which was the perfect way to finish the holiday!

This is the best place we have ever stayed and we can't wait to come back again!

Our very favourite home from home.
There is nowhere in the world we would rather be than enjoying wonderful hospitality in our favourite boutique hotel. As the many reviews suggest this is the place to come if you want the personal touches, a helpful Team to look after you, wonderful breakfast, a cozy beautiful lounge area and a lovely pool u0026 jacuzzi it’s also a very convenient location for fine local restaurants etc
Returning here (it’s our 6th stay ) due to the global pandemic presented its challenges but the three hour PCR test at the airport made it possible after the U.K. Government removed it from the red list, hooray !
We feel safer here than we would at home right now.
Sorry I have to go and have some of the delicious complimentary cake with a cup of tea, it’s a carrot cake today home from home indeed.
I hope you get the chance to come here u0026 enjoy it as much as we do.

Hospitality on a new level

Stylishly decorated boutique hotel with an excellent, talented and friendly team, where no wish remains unfulfilled.
The breakfast in particular is unsurpassable.
Here hospitality has highest priority, perfection down to the last detail.
Large hotels are chanceless here.
We come back!

The Derwent House is a very special boutique hotel. From the personal touches for our honeymoon, to the wonderful breakfasts, to the welcoming and caring staff, this is a great place for a vacation. The property has a beautiful pool, rooms are bright, clean and unique and there is 24/7 staff to make you feel very comfortable and safe. Luca and his team kicked it off with welcome drinks and helpful info and they continued their excellent service from there. Highly recommend to all travelers, great central location in Cape Town also!
