About Dunkley House

In the heart of central Cape Town, modern design and styling has transformed this historic family residence. Built in the 1900’s in a quaint Victorian street, Dunkley House offers an urban escape in the City Bowl. Choose between classic or contemporary rooms, two with their very own private courtyard plunge pools. And one self-catering apartment ideal for longer stays. All have air-conditioning, free WiFi, Dstv and tea/coffee facilities. While the refreshing courtyard pool and patio offers a quiet sanctuary from the city. With its close proximity to the Red City Sightseeing bus routes, restaurants, clubs, bars, shops, CBD and legendary Long Street nightlife, this is an ideal base for exploring the city on foot. Friendly staff are happy to assist with tours, taxis and restaurants to help make the most of your stay. Complimentary Wi-Fi throughout | Children welcome

Guest Impressions

My stay

"The stay was good, no issues. The location is central and in a very quiet street with parking on the street. In fact, I left my I Phone charger and adapter in the room and when I went back the next day, they gave it back to me."
