    I had a wonderful stay at Rose Lodge! It is situated in Bo-Kaap, one of the most interesting neighborhoods in Cape Town. It is within walking distance from the Green Market and a number of interesting shops and neighborhood restaurants, including...

Rose Lodge is located in Wale Street a few minutes from central Cape Town. This guesthouse is small & cosy. It has recently been renovated and is located in the colourful historic “Malay Quarter” known in Cape Town as the Bo-Kaap, just below Signal Hill and the Noon Day Gun … an authentic canon fired every day at midday! It is one of the oldest residential areas in the city. The area has its own unique old world charm.
Bruce is a Canadian. After living in Canada & Europe, he moved to beautiful Cape Town & opened his guesthouse in 2005. He speaks English, French & German. His interests are classical music, art, food & meeting people from other parts of the world. He is helped by Lucy & his four-legged doggies Mia & Bokkie.
The Bo-Kaap, with its colourful painted houses & cobbled streets, is an historic residential area. The fashionable and trendy De Waterkant Village is just around the corner with its boutiques, restaurants, and nightlife and the city centre is 5 minutes away. Cape Town’s International Convention Centre and world famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront are also within walking distance or a short ride away.
