Outstanding
We stayed for 9 nights for a working holiday. This is one of the best hotels we have stayed in, in any part of the world.
From the minute we stepped foot into the hotel the service was outstanding. The place is immaculate and the amenities phenomenal.
We ate at the hotel several times and the food was excellent. The area is safe and has lots of lovely restaurants nearby. One of the highlights was sitting at Harvey’s Bar watching the sun go down with other guests and local capetonians.

The service was excellent and very accommodating in every area for our stay….where to visit, best transportation to use, weather reports for the area we wanted to visit, delicious gourmet breakfast every day included with each night we stayed, the front desk and entire staff were very kind, the rooms and entire hotel was exceptionally clean and modern and the location was directly across the street from the Atlantic Ocean. It was great for long walks along the promenade overlooking the water. I will definitely stay there again. 5*’s for sure!

Fabulous staff and service!
Wonderful hotel. Newly updated. The staff were friendly and helpful at all times. The breakfasts were incredible! There was a buffet, but order anything off the menu; fresh avocado, salmon, poached eggs. Limitless cappuccinos. The front desk was always there, as our personal concierge, making recommendations and reservations. Housekeeping services were available whenever we needed them. Free shuttle available to the V & A. The only negatives were the heater never worked in our room. They sent someone in every day and after 4 days, they brought us a space heater. The bathrooms were beautifully updated, but no counter space at all. They provided VIP tickets to the diamond museum which was very nice. A wonderful experience!

Excellent place to stay in Cape Town
Excellent hotel- the location and staff were amazing! Could walk to Mojo market and V&A waterfront for excellent food options.
Breakfast was absolutely wonderful and the view from the hotel, service, and amenities cannot be beat. I would 100% recommend this hotel to any friend thinking about traveling to Cape Town!

Modern and clean hotel with great breakfasts
Cool renovated hotel with an astonishing internal yard. Breakfasts were among the best we've had during our trip. Reception gentlemen was super friendly and gave us a lot of useful insights on where to eat and where to go hiking.

It’s a very nice boutique hotel. I’m a light sleeper and unfortunately, my room (loft) was on the third floor and directly under a corrugated metal roof. At daylight, seagulls started walking on the roof and woke me. Then the birds (more like angry birds) started to squawk very loudly and did not stop.
When out of my room and looked at the roof, I noticed the hotel used a series of wires to prevent the seagulls from landing on the roof.
I complained to desk clerk who told me he would tell management, as if it was a new problem.
My mistake was not telling the hotel in advance that I needed a quiet room. I usually do, but thought because of thei
