To make url reversing easy, I recommend that you always name your url patterns.

url(r'^$', ContactIndex.as_view(), name="contact_index"),
url(r'^add$', ContactAdd.as_view(), name="contact_add"),
url(r'^([0-9]+)/update$', ContactUpdate.as_view(), name="contact_update"),
url(r'^([0-9]+)/view$', ContactView.as_view(), name="contact_view"),

Then in the template:

{% url contact_view contact.id %}
