The staff is wonderful. Everyone is kind and attentive. However, the property is not at the V&A waterfront. We had to take an uber to/from the V&A waterfront everyday to get to the better restaurants and shopping. For that reason, I wouldn’t stay at this property again. It’s just too far away from the action in my opinion. But if you’re looking for a safe and clean place to stay, this would be a great option. Also, the breakfast every morning is free and it’s really good!

We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were nice and clean, and the bar area was enjoyable. Restaurant had great food. Get the Mozambique shrimp! Great views of Table Mountain from our room. Not much immediately next to the hotel but a short walk to the V&A Wharf and there is a water taxi directly in back to take you there. Also UBER came quickly.

Large room horrible house keeping.friendly staff Upon check-in, staff noted we are assigned waterfront view room unfortunately our view was railway track, ship containers/dock. At 4am we could hear container noises being moved around.VA waterfront is 25-30 minutes walking distance and not safe even at daytime especially walking through canal walkways. Yes we did get followed by a young man asking for money. I cancelled my previous reservation at different hotel and booked AC marrriot for almost double the cost hoping for waterfront view and closer: safer to VA waterfront,Big Mistake…Hotel is located at a secluded area and definitely need transportation to get around.

Great hotel in all ways but inconvenient as there are no restaurants of stores at the location. You need to take a short, inexpensive Uber ride to get to anything. The hotel offers a water taxis shuttle on a schedule.

Hello. This is a beautiful hotel close to shopping, restaurants and Table Mountain. Our heat didn't work in our room and they offered to put us in another room but we were happily settled in our room and agreed to wait and it was fixed when we returned from our excursion. We loved the breakfast and the staff was wonderful to us. If something is wrong, please be courteous/patient and let the staff know. They care and will make every effort to resolve your problem. Well done and bravo Marriott. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable stay
