What a very nice questhouse with super kind people! We had a beautifull room with acces to the swimmingpool. In our nice decorated room there was everything we needed, music, dvd, a good Nespresso machine, a very nice 'open' bathroom and a super bed! Accually we came for the Cape Argus bicycle tour. That was a beautifull and very specail... More

After we arrived, we were surprised to find that we had been put into a different room than the one described to us when we booked. We eventually met the owner (Daniel) and pointed out the differences in what we had booked (we had the details in an email that he wrote himself) and how disappointed we were to find... More

Cape Diem is located in a nice, quiet side street and is within walking distance to Cape Town harbour fromt. The rooms are lovely and the owner, Daniel, very nice and helpful. We enjoyed our stay there very much and would definitely choose to stay there again if we return to Cape Town.

My wife and I decided to add on a few nights to the trip and I found the Cape Diem Lodge while browsing through the internet. What a great find!! Although it is not your typical 5-star... More

It is a little difficult to navigate to the waterfront, or was at the point of our stay in October 2009, due to the construction occurring for the World Cup. Nonetheless the hotel exceeded our expectations. The manager was even kind enough to drive us to the... More
