This hotel was useful base for exploring Cape Town, loved it. We have booked queen room for 1 night, everything was perfect, it had central heating, multi-channel TV and tea/coffee making equipment.

Some people working there were very rude.

A safe hotel, awesome views, ideal location really close to everything else in Cape Town. The room was brand-new, warm & had a comfortable bed. Central heating and a writing desk were available in the room.

Thank you for making our stay a wonderful experience. We loved this humble hotel and its lovely staff and atmosphere.

Well, the area was quite poor overall.

This homey hotel was spotless. Lots of supplies in the room: satellite television, climate control and coffee facilities. Best staff members offered attentive service. Location near the own beach. Food was exceptional and their restaurant was fabulous.

We loved the unbeatable location and the staff was dedicated. In short, the room was warm enough, spacious bed, luxurious bathroom. Well-maintained garden and great pool. The rooftop bar provided burgers and salads.

It was a good experience. The room was well decorated and nice, the location was absolutely perfect. I slept so comfy in the comfy bed. Cold cuisine. City Bowl district was worth staying in.

Well, no privacy.

Worth its 2 stars. We really loved this hotel's rooms and service. Stopped by Cafe Zorina to get some coffee and treats, it's feet from the venue, recommend. The front desk staff were helpful throughout the day. We had double beds and we all slept well...

Noisy street, but can't fault the hotel.
