The water was warm and the atmosphere peaceful. Thank.you everyone who makes the swimming enjoyable under a roof.

Awesome for kids but over 8 not younger because the baby pool will be too deep for any child younger than 8.....

Facility is clean and well maintained, you can enjoy swimming in all seasons..

Always a great place to relax and enjoy while releasing some stress

Peaceful early Sunday morning swimming--not overly crowded so little ones can enjoy confidence while taking swimming lessons - water at a reasonable temperature & clean all over except for the ladies toilets not having a proper cleaning & stench definitely needs attention 🤢🤢🤢for the entry cost one would expect especially the toilets more hygienic & proper cleaning attention🤔🤔🤔

A nice place but needs a serious upgrade. Theres plants growing through the walls, also they allow people to swim in the underwear thats awful and not great. Also the lifeguards are always having conversations amongst each other and not looking after the kids. Must say it has serious potential to be unbelievably beautiful. The bathrooms are awful theyve been the same and need upgrading. Its worth going once and never again.

Was Awesome... Esp on a Tue.. Ladies only until 2pm

Very clean.Warm water is relaxing at anytime.

My kids loved it. They had fun and wouldnt leave the pool without a bribe. The fact that my 11 year old who is a confident swimmer could use the bigger pool and the 7 year old was as happy in the kiddies pool helped to keep us all happy and occupied. The toilets and showers are not very appealing however in the bigger scheme of things it was a minor issue for me.

A combination of Turkish bath (steam sauna) and warm water swimming pool. Interesting place from the Japanese point of view.

The times on the app dont math with there actual times but it was fun.

Nostalgic city run baths / swimming pool. Clean, basic and great value for money. Brilliant couple hours out

Beautiful, well maintained Olympic sized swimming pool, always set to the perfect temperature. This place has been around for a long time and has since been re-done to maintain its authentic feel and good condition.

Toilets werent so clean really.

Dirty place with bird poop all over the benches.Outdated online information and incapable of answering their phone. The baby pool is so deep a 4 year old is unable to stand in there without his/her head being completely submerged in water.The only plus is that its indoor which protects from sun burns, otherwise filthy.

It was a nice experience, the water is not too warm but its water temperature but I suppose it goes according the weather, the place just needs a nice touch up on paint and things like that but the overall experience was nice

Amazing place too go for a swim, they even have lockers for you too put away your valuables just bring a lock with.

Online it says it was closed only till level three. It has actually been closed for the whole pandemic.

Lovely place. Kiddies pool is perfecto

Its a really nice place with a big spacious pool and friendly lifeguards. Theyre also open until late so thats a plus! The only things that could be an issue for some people is that there is quite a bit of chlorine in the water and that the entry fee is R30 per adult. However they are open throughout the year which means swimming in warm water in winter! Would definitely recommend for a family outing.

Perfect place for those people with Illumines That cant handle cold water

Nice for the first time

The only covered public swimming pool in the city bowl.It is affordable and friendly, but unfortunately it is tragically run down. :(Besides the fact that the the facilities could do with a make-over and some investment, it seems like none cares to even do the most basic maintenance work that would just require some good will and a bit of initiative, not money.The water this morning was so cloudy that one could not see the bottom. The showers have been turned off for months, since the peak of the water crisis in 2017, and they have never been turned back on.This means that, if you wanna go swim before work, you will stink of chlorine the whole day... :( And with the water so cloudy, I even wonder whether it is hygienic to swim in there and not being able to rinse off afterwards.It is very sad to see such a precious public resource going to waste. :(

I think this is a very nice place. Very big pool. The fact that its indoors is a bonus. No sunlight to burn your skin and no wind making you cold or blowing sand. You can however go to the back the the pool grounds where you can exit to get some much air and sunlight.

Information online is not updated and is misleading.Opening and closing times should be updated.

Visited them a year ago and it was an amazing experience

A beautiful warm public indoor pool. It has 2 pools, one small and the other big. Very clean and comfortable. Will offer you an amazing rejuvenating experience. No sunburns, no sand...just a lovely swimTuesday from 10-2 are facilities just for ladies.

Good public pool, heated water. Can get busy with kids and families during summer especially school holidays. To do lap swimming and avoid the crowds I go at 18h00.

Great place to swim, the pool water is not cold which makes it very enjoyable.I think the best times to visit are during the week for a morning swim before going to work to get that nice workout.

An old building but the pool temperate is always just right. There are no shower facilties due to water restrictions. Best to go for a morning swim when they open as it gets very busy during summer / peak season. They close at 5 but in summer,i think they close at 7pm. Best to call first. As it is enclosed, it smells strongly of chemicals. I wouldnt suggest spending long hours there for kids or asthma sufferers. A quick swim will do. There are City Council life guards on duty and the staff is very friendly and helpful.

Our families favorite spot especially in off peak times

Horrible, shocking needs some very serious renovation. Chipped broken tiles, paint peeling off the walls. Turkish baths not working, no showers the complete venue old dull and dingy. Unless you dont have a bath at home you can go there for a weekly bath.Rude male employee at the door.Must of been a nice place 30 years ago but needs some serious renovations.Cant express my disappointment enough, lleft after 5 minutes of arriving there.

Always enjoy ourselves at long Street baths

Visited 9/1/2020. Very unpleasant as a film crew where busy shooting something there. Used smoke machines in the swimming area one could hardly breath properly and when we wanted a refund the cashier had a attitude. Left as soon as possible.

This facility has recently turned 100 years old! I bet its still the original paint on the walls though - disgusting! Its such a beautiful building, that can easily be renovated with a few thousand Rands but it seems even the basic maintenance is lacking. Showers still dont work (since 2017) despite water restrictions being lifted recently and ALL the lifeguards are really unprofessional and rude. Dont get me started on the state of the Turkish Baths, its downright creepy and dingy.Fresh paint, scatter some plants around, turn the showers on and hire people who actually want to be there and youll have an amazing facility!

Thank you for the great attitude at reception and telephonically. It is inviting, clean and a overall a good experience! I would like to add to the suggestion that the Baths at Long Street not only open at 7am but extended to 7pm. This would be appreciated. Thank you.Kind regards. Ruth

Great safe environment love itNo gangsters no drinking of alcoholNo worries if your belongings will be stolenGreat atmosphere always went thereWill never stop going there

Trip down memory lane for my Mum! Pool was clean, building could do with a bit of maintenance, however in its current state it gives the baths a historic feel. Life guards could be more attentive though!

Fun place.. for adults nd childrens. Max Depth 2.3m .. only prob! No divs

Great place to swim! However the older gentleman who works there (looks after the pool) has been rude to us on two separate occasions - reprimanding us when weve done nothing wrong and talking to us like were children. It really dampened the experience. I hope this matter gets resolved as we were told hes done it to others as well.

Can anybody tell if the pools are open as yet? Online it says open

To get this message out I had to rate with one star. If I had my way, I wouldnt rate this place at all.Today was my first time at the baths and I was utterly disgusted, my friend had experienced sexual misconduct/invasion of privacy in the ladies changing rooms. I will never step foot in this place again! People are so sick in their heads and City of Cape Town, you need to get proper security at these baths, as it is a public place! It’s pathetic how there was only one security guy on duty. Also, get your Management in order, they need to be more proactive and aware of their surroundings!

Great place for the family on a hot day if you dont feel like going to the beach

Add this to your things to do if youre a student studying abroad, great to relax before or after exams. Ask for the ice tea, was 10 rand, and was such an elixir.

Two heated pools. Its nice and clean! There are always lifeguards on duty.

I swim there every Saturday morning. Place is clean all day. The staff members are helpful. It is affordable

Cost is R30 for as long as you want for the day. Open from 7am to 7pm. No showers due to water restrictions

Very clean pools & well maintained toilet facilities. Awesome experience!!!

Too full. Water is cloudy. I dnt also understand why adults swim in the kids pool? The city can look at maybe employing life guards who does not just sit in one place for hours.

Awesome place for family no complaints just an concern as a big bold person, the stairs railing which are being used to enter and excit the pool which is abit loose and wobly when u use it since u not allow to dive every use it and I think its been like that for about 10yrs n more cuz that how long ev been coming to the ficilty and last I can b wrong but more excit n entry place on the seating stands/pavilion due to adults having to bend underneath to be seated on the stand,yet again its just and suggestion n my comment not an complain . But other than that .

So the showers werent on. Not sure why when most if not all places I visited had their showers on. The water was cold too and Long St pools are known for its heated pools and shower facilities.

An under used Cape Town facility. The pool is kept clean and not to warm.Winter closing time of 5:30pm makes it difficult to make it an after work stop.

Local indoor heated swimming pool. Perfect during winter or summer months.

Friendly atmosphere... affordable...not crowded...water lovely

Best to be there early in summer. They open from 07:00 in the morning. Get your swim on as it get crowded in the small kids pool

Wouldve given 5 stars if the showers worked☹

Cheap. Pretty clean, for a public pool. There are lockers available for your things, just make sure you bring your own lock. Showers are currently unavailable due to water restrictions.

Really awesome family outing. Pools are indoors and semi-warm and the kids love it!

Fantastic indoor heated pool. Lifeguards on duty all the time. Great place to spend the day with the family

Indoor pool for laps as well a kiddies pool however kids from age 5 and up can stand in the pool. Not a babies/toddler pool. Still lots of fun.

Go here three or four times a week. The pool is heated. The pool is 25 meters with a childrens heated pool alongside. There are doors that leads outside to an enclosed area where you can tan. Dressing rooms provide basic facilities. In addition, there are Turkish baths which mean a steam room, a sauna room, and a deep, cold plunge pool. Separate facilities for men and women. R60 to enter for Turkish Baths.

Great pool, clean and inexpensive, but dont expect much if you call them - telephone etiquette is seriously lacking!

Open 7 days a week from 7am-6.30pmEntry fee R30 per adult, R16 per child, pensioners free. Special ladies only morning on a Tuesday

Enjoyed it tremendously... Always hav a great time... Beast time to go is in the morning

Needs serious TLC - heater not working, walls are crumbling, facilities just not in good state. Pricing on website and social media pages needs to be updated.

Indoor swimming, water is warm. If you want to get an excercise good for long laps. Swimming instructors for lessons are available. Great spot to take kids for swimming, shalow side enclosed for kids, swimming beginners and people with babies. Open mon - mon till 7am, you can go to do some laps in the morning or in the evening.

Favourite place to swim at especially for women on tuesdays

Enjoyable! Extremely limited parking tho

Needs some up keep but water was warm and clean.

Definitely worth another visit. Needs a touch up but worth the R30

Allen makes travelling worth while!

A bit run down, but where else can you find an affordable indoor pool? The kids love it.

Felt safe while i was there with my niece and nephew. I would go again

This is a peaceful place to be I love this pool

Soooo enjoyable 😂😂 will definitely be going back 👏🏽

Clean and well-maintained pool. No showers available for afterwards.

Love this indoor poolThe water temp is just riteYou can even go when its raining

Showers should be allowed after a swim, now with water restrictions I understand, but otherwise allow showers please, not just a rinse

Lovely well maintained olympic size swimming pool. Has a kids pool also. Walls need repair and a paint though.

There are to little ladders to get into the pools and the water is average in temperature. No warm water, so dont expect WARM.

No showers, no steam room, no sauna, pool water is cold. Not a Turkish Bath at all

Perfect any day and open late

Best place to swim. Love love it there

Very nice to spend your time with your family

Really nice public pool..really enjoyed it...Lovely place for kids...

1st time with the family great excellent

Wonderful indoor heated swimming pool for all seasons

Love this no sunburn swimming place

Very nice pool to train in. Friendly staff.

Nice place if the outdoor weather is not suitable for the beach, like when it is windy.

Clean pools and all facilities neat and well kept

The worst pools in Cape Town..other than the pool there is no space,cramped ,it Is just not for me , wont go there ever again

The best day is Ladies Day Tuesdays.

Its a great little spot. But be aware that there is limited service due to the water shortage.

For family fun heated pools in the middle of the city centre

Nice place to go for a swim

Great indoor swimming pool25m

They offer an affordable option for indoor swimming in downtown Cape Town. The pools are chilly but clean. The place is a little run down.

Was terribly disappointed to arrive before 6pm and find the doors closed and locked on Wednesday 4th September, we were told that the baths closed at 5:30 because no one was in.

I am such a fan of this well run municipal pool
