This is a good location to walk to and from the V & A waterfront. It’s probably a 10-15 minute walk. There is a path with clear signs that lead you there without having to walk in traffic. This is written November 20, 2024 and they are doing extensive remodeling so there is no gym, pool or restaurant. Since I workout every morning that was a disappointment for me. I hope that once it is done it will be a nice edition to the hotel. Staff very kind and helpful. I would rate them as excellent.

Good location and pleasant rooms, although storage space is very limited and the outlook was poor - containers and a building site. However, a major problem was that, although I had been advised 8 or 9 months ago that there was construction work going on this did not explicitly say that the swimming pool was out of action or that there would be no food available in the hotel (apart from a vending machine for crisps etc. in reception). As a single female I did not feel safe going out alone in the evenings in Cape Town so had a miserable time living off sandwiches in my room for a week. Had they been more honest and upfront I would have cancelled and stayed elsewhere. There was no apology or compensation offered.

Not only is the hotel undergoing massive construction, the walls are paper thin, I can hear absolutely everything in the hallways and in other rooms, house keeping work me up twice barging in even tho I loudly shouted no thank you (there are no signs to hang on the door to decline housekeeping and there are no deadbolts on the hotel doors) -- who does this at 8:30am?!?!! This is grossly overpriced hotel for what we actually get -- overall poor experience sadly

Everything was good despite the ongoing construction. The only thing that was disappointing was that there was no ice available at the hotel (though the excellent staff at the front desk got us ice from outside). Ms. Nande and Mr. Siyabulela need to be specially mentioned for going the extra mile. Ms. Nande was always willing and eager to help. And always with a smile.

Great property. Around a 10-15 minute walk to the waterfront but only in daylight hours. Restaurant and the hotel is currently being renovated but it didn’t bother us since there is so much to see in this beautiful city we spent most of the day out. The room cleaning is interesting. They knock on your door at 0800 and take the towels.

I had reasonable expectations for this hotel but unfortunately expectations were not met. They fell well short really. The beds were hard and pillows were flat so it was hard to get a good night sleep. The housekeeping ladies knocked on the door at 8am each morning wanting to remake the room. Seems pretty early to be doing that. Would have hung a doo not disturb sign on the door but the hotel didn’t have those. The water ran dark brown one day. The guy at the front desk said the city turned the water off for a while which caused it…maybe. On top of that, they were doing significant renovations to the hotel so the restraint was closed, the bar was closed and the worked started at 8am too. The whole place smelt strongly of wet paint fumes the whole time. They would have been best to close the hotel for such significant renovations but no, they stayed open and charged the full rate. Even without the renovations I would never go back here. Could be a good hotel but it just isn’t.

Good hotel
The rooms were nice and kept well cleaned. The timing for me was not good as the hotel closed it's restaurant for renovations. So there was no room service. The day before I left they started renovating the reception area. So I am very sure it will be much better when it is ready. I will be back.

I would give this hotel a 5 star except for checking in when the very nice man had to tell us that there was No Water in the room, and here are bottles for sale! What corporate jerk decided not to have a couple water bottles in every room? Raise the price 2 dollars. Otherwise, service and food, people excellent
