Road Lodge Cape Town International Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location for a stopover at the airport. Staff were very helpful and check-in was efficient. Room was basic but clean and comfortable. There is a underpass to walk across from the car rental car park which is safe and easy to walk in the day light, when we landed late at night we used the shuttle service recommended by the hotel which was reasonable, in fact indifferent from an Uber, and provided excellent service."
