“Head South Lodge struck me as a smart choice in Green Point, with its blend of art-deco style and handy location a short walk from central Cape Town. I noted the free parking and outdoor pool; small things that can make a real difference. For anyone wanting a boutique experience with a dash of retro charm, it would certainly be on my list.”

i had a lovely beautiful double room. it was spacious with a balcony. the breakfast was great. i liked the area at the front to sit in.
