We had a lovely stay. The staff were brillant from the reception staff to the bar and restaurant. All very helpful. We made use of the bar and had dinner at the restaurant. The food was amazing! We had the lamb shank and a seafood pasta.Breakfast was very good with friendly staff. A good location and the swim in the pool was enjoyed with the perfect view of the mountains. The room was spacious,bed compfy,lovely view from the balcony and the bathroom was divine. I was happy that there was plenty of bottled water provided in the bedroom.

The staff was above and beyond , the property was like an oasis in the city, very quiet, I had a new room which was lovely!!! I really can’t comment on the above questions because I was there for a very specific reason and didn’t do anything touristy! But I would stay there again…..for sure!

The hotel is lovely! It is clean, feels very safe, and the staff is wonderful! It is located in a small neighborhood which I liked, but was close to everything with a short 10 min Uber ride. Some restaurants were within a 5-15 minute walk which were very good. While we were there, there was 1 issue with a water pipe. A bit of an inconvenience but did not last more than 1 day.

This was a lovely hotel to stay in. The reception is currently undergoing renovation, but there are plenty of staff on hand to guide you. The staff are extremely helpful and attentive. The breakfast is fantastic - it offers both a buffet and a menu to order from. The restaurant on site is also great for dinner, with the service being particularly good. Location wise, this hotel is near the starting point for hiking up the Lion's Head, and is also near the Table Mountain cable car station. I would definitely stay here again when next in Cape Town!

8/10 Very good

the woman working the front desk during my stay was very rude and unprofessional. this left a bad taste in my mouth which was a bummer because otherwise i loved the property, location, and hotel overall. my only other complaint is that the shower area/wall for the bathroom was completely see through in the center of the room so if you’re staying with friends or family they’ll be able to see you shower naked. overall it was nice but i wouldn’t stay again due to poor service and the weird clear glass bathroom area

4/10 Fair

Unsatisfactory stay

Rooms are untidy, especially under beds- daily cleaning is not up to standard. Gowns and some towels were removed and not replaced during our stay. Parking entrance and exit you need to press and there’s no sanitizer (exposure to COVID) same goes to lift. Parking is not free for guests.
