The Walden House

Excellent service of the Staff. Friendly. Airco to much noise on the room. To see on a wall in the room. Clean and very good bed. Top

Beware! Rude and unkind people. After booking a non refundable rate for 4 adults, our travel companion discovered he had cancer, would be undergoing extensive chemotherapy and we had to cancel our long awaited trip. We are all absolutely devastated with the news. I spoke with the booking site who were gracious and immediately offered an exception provided the hotel agreed. Not only did the hotel not agree to any kind of refund, they all also sent me an incredibly rude and uncalled for message. They still had 2 months to rebook the rooms and yet could not even give one ounce of courtesy. I am incredibly disappointed in such lack of compassion or understanding. I will NEVER stay here or recommend them to anyone. I hope they sleep well at night with our money in their pockets.

Good spacious rooms and bathroom, comfortable bed. Just big enough desk to work at. Nice view if you looked hard enough! Toiletries not great, expensive mini bar. Lots of keys needed to unlock and lock again front door, room door, balcony door. Pool and pool area out of action.

I can’t thank enough the manager of Walden House, Amy, from going to the nth degree to ensure that I had a wonderful stay. Amy, your outstanding service and clear dedication to this wonderful place made my experience - Walden House is lucky to have you!

We (family of 4) stayed at Walden House for 6 nights. It’s centrally located, a short drive from the V&A Waterfront, and close to some excellent restaurants. Our rooms were very comfortable, and the breakfasts great. But by far the greatest thing about the Walden House is the warmth of welcome from Amy and Kirsten. They went out of their way to help us - providing food and coffee when we left early for day trips, booking an airport transfer and arranging a guide for Table Mountain. Amy also helped us enormously with a difficult situation that we found ourselves in, and we cannot thank her enough. We highly recommend the Walden House.

A well run and very hospitable small inn. The staff was very helpful, personable and accommodating. Walden House is well-situated, with restaurants nearby, and across the street from a small park. The English breakfast provided for our stay was absolutely delicious. Our thanks to the staff. We highly recommend Walden House.
