Never again!
Having traveled from Canada with my infant on our first visit to Cape Town, we had very high expectations for our stay at this hotel. We stayed for 8 days here and I am beyond disappointed with my selection. With load sheddding, i was unable to want up a bottle for my infant. I was told by front desk to call room service for warm milk to which I was billed R12 each time. I was offered a drink and champagne for our arrival (honeymoon), neither was received. No special add ons were provided for our honeymoon stay. The icing on this disappointing stay was my family and I fell ill was a gastric bug (seeing as though the only food we consumed was at the hotel). A few other guests we met complained about the same illness but there was no empathy or check in made on us. For the amount of money I spent here and lenght of duration, I am beyond dissatisfied with the level of service shown to my family and I

Good location
The President is located in a great spot in Bantry Bay. It is a big hotel, and rooms are lovely. Breaking was lovely, but service was a bit slow. Pool is niece , but very crowded.
