Well located central city hotel
Very well located for walking in central Cape Town; convenient to many tourist interests. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is comfortable, although could use some updating. Excellent breakfast including cooked to order items and a small buffet.

Gem in the Centre of Town!
The Staff at Grand Daddy Hotel are so welcoming, friendly and helpful! The little hotel is a beautiful gem in the centre of town and close to some great eat-out places, Artscape, and so on. The rooftop is something else and the attention to detail is special. The breakfast was truly amazing!

The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The rooftop bar is super cool and Ben, the bartender, is the best. The food at Thirty Ate is very good.

10/10 Exceptional

This was my first time out of country by myself and I must say, my stay at the GrandDaddy was a wonderful experience. It was well-cleaned, with friendly staff and a charming aesthetic, and to top it all off, the free breakfast was restaurant quality. I would absolutely recommend for anyone wanting to get the urban Cape Town experience. The only thing I would recommend noting is the area surrounding it. Given that it sits right in the middle of the entertainment district, the streets after dark are a bit sketchy. But other than that, it was a wonderful experience.
