So incredibly nice of the reception that when we arrived in the morning at the hotel they made sure that our room was prioritized for check-in which meant that we could check in before lunch. All staff were very service oriented and always friendly. I can highly recommend this hotel to other travelers.

What a gem. Ideally located and with every amenity to make our stay comfortable and care free. The staff were super friendly and helpful, the room was spotless and the beds were extremely comfortable. The breakfast buffet was extensive and very tasty. Our only regret is how short our stay was.

Great location and friendly staff

Great location, very close to stores and restaurants, beach and hop on and off bus stop. Hotel was under construction but wasn’t too bad. Rooms were renovated but some things not done well, like knob of closet coming off. Staff was great, shout out to Thunder, George grace and Lisa.

Very clean rooms, kind staff. The spa was disappointing, happy to support women run businesses, but it lacked the same service and was held in very large conference rooms lacking warmth with alot of outdoor noise. I think a trip to a proper spa may be better. Elevator was unfortunately not working for most of our stay, but the clean rooms and kind staff made up for this.

Great Stay

Moved to this hotel when we checked out early from a different hotel that was horrible. This hotel was great. Decor is a cool retro vibe. Room is very nice with a very comfortable bed. On the water, but still reasonably close to the CBD in a very nice neighbourhood with lots of dining options. Would highly recommend and would stay here again.

This hotel is in a great walkable location. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The hotel itself is undergoing renovations, so it was also a little noisy because of the construction. The hotel doesn’t have a restaurant on site as a result of the construction. There are many restaurants nearby. The hotel staff recommended several great ones.

Service and location was great, however the conditions of hotel were not great. I believe Mariott recently purchased this hotel and is still renovating. This may explain why I found it wasn't to Mariott standards/

Great location, amazing breakfast.

Really good location, amazing breakfast but a slow and frustrating check in. Took more than hour and half and the booking could not be found. I had to contact Hotels.com as the customer to resolve the issue.

The hotel that shines like a great diamond

This is a highly polished hotel set in a safe area of Cape Town. The staff do glisten in any light. Without exception they are all friendly and attentive - I know because I saw them interacting with other guests and we all experienced their polished service standards. They are well motivated and it shows. Be there to know that each feels part of the team striving to deliver a warm and friendly experience for their guests.

Staff all very helpful and friendly, remembering breakfast tea preferences without being asked. Lots of advice from front of house and doormen about various places of interest. Room clean, set up as single beds as I was lone traveller, but happy to make it into double as my preference. Bathroom clean, fresh towels every day, could improve shower curtain though to glass side instead. (My only complaint) again personal preference. Two minutes to sea front. Restaurant attached very cheerful, staff singing Happy Birthday to guests and occasional burst of line dancing, all good family friendly fun. I would certainly recommend and return.

6/10 Good

We recently stayed at this hotel, and we had a mix feeling. On the positive side, the staff and service during breakfast were outstanding. We enjoyed the food and the friendly people working in the kitchen and serving, the likes of Pearl, Maureen, Sami, Kua.. (I forget her full name, but she works in the kitchen). However, on the downside, I must express our disappointment with the room service. Throughout my stay, I consistently encountered issues such as missing towels, shompoo, water bottle... etc. Regrettably, I found myself having to contact the reception almost every day to request room service. I had hoped that these concerns would be resolved promptly after my initial call, but unfortunately, this was not the case. Additionally, I expressed a desire to change room due to my dissatisfaction with the location, but this request was not fulfilled. The high hotel room fee does not align with the level of service provided. While there were positive aspects, the recurring issues with room service and the unmet room change request left a lasting negative impression on my stay.
