The Loft

Comfort, curated.

Beyond the finishes and furnishings, The Loft is built around a simple idea: guests should be able to arrive, settle in and live — not just stay. Genuine privacy, dependable service, and a location that keeps the city within reach without ever feeling like the middle of it.

Inside The living room

The Loft suits business travellers on short-term assignments, diplomats, couples and solo guests, and anyone in transition awaiting permanent housing — a private, home-like space with the comfort, service and discretion that a hotel room cannot give you for a month.

Every detail has been considered so that a stay of a few nights or several months feels effortless: made-up beds on arrival, a kitchen you can actually cook in, housekeeping and fresh linen every third day, and a shaded garden with a built-in braai that faces the morning sun. The complex adds a shared swimming pool and a large communal garden.

  • Spacious bedroom with queen bed and built-in wardrobes
  • Ensuite bathroom with a bath and shower, plus a guest toilet
  • Modern living area with smart TV and high-speed Wi-Fi
  • Fully equipped kitchen with a Nespresso machine
  • Air conditioning, washing machine and laundry services
  • Shaded parking inside a gated plot with 24-hour security

Book

Reserve your dates.

Four steps and the dates are yours. Pick your nights, add your details, sign the house terms, then pay by card or mobile money through DPO. Your dates are held for 30 minutes while you complete it, and the booking confirms itself the moment payment clears — or the owner confirms it with you personally, usually the same day, where payment is arranged another way.

  1. Choose arrival and departure on the availability calendar.
  2. Add your details, the WhatsApp number we should use, and any extras.
  3. Sign the terms of stay — typing your full name is your signature.
  4. Pay online, or send the request and the owner confirms it with you.

Once confirmed, the flat is yours from 3:00 PM on your arrival day, and your booking link becomes your in-stay line to the owner — breakages, extras, anything at all — until check-out, when it closes. Extras are arranged and quoted by the owner separately, so they never hold up your booking. Housekeeping and a linen change every third day are already included.

Booked directly with the owner — we confirm every stay personally and stay in touch by email and WhatsApp once you have booked. @the_lofte

We use your details only to manage this booking and to send you arrival information — the privacy notice says exactly what is kept, the lawful basis for it under the Data Protection Act, 2018, who sees it and how to ask for a copy or deletion. Payments are processed by DPO; we never see your card details. Cancellation and refunds are set out in the refund and cancellation policy.

Extras

Make it yours.

The little things that turn a stay into a settled home — arranged before you arrive or during your stay. Tick anything you would like and it is added to your booking.

  • Not provided

    We do not supply items for babies and toddlers — no cot, high chair, bath or gates. Please bring your own.

    The Loft suits adults and older children

Location

Plot 2989, Madikwe Crescent — the address does most of the persuading.

Extension 11 sits between the Government offices and the CBD, in the belt of the city where the embassies and high commissions are. Everything you need on a normal day is close enough that you will stop driving for it.
