4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 8, 2013

The whole feel of this hotel is of an international 5 star. Professional, friendly, high prices. So, why not a 5 star rating? Because looking closer you recognize the Sun International Las Vegas signature. The "old colonial" look works if you keep a distance. But actually it is all new. The worst being the plastic palm trees in the lounge.... More

Great views and very good location - you can walk to any attraction at V&A harbor and all the shopping. Good service and security. Concierge very helpful in organizing sightseeing or any other services. I think the rooms can use a little bit of updating especially for the price.

In the coming weeks our rooms will have new carpet and the exterior building will be repainted.

TWe did not stay here. This hotel has beautiful corridors and lobby. We had high tea here one afternoon. It is served from 2:15-5:15 p.m. and costs only 185 rand. You each get four small sandwiches, then three three pieces of quiche, then four scones. Lastly, there were 15 desserts and you can have as much and as many of... More

This facility certainly isn't Africa. But it is one of the finest international hotels with a beautiful location in the middle of the shopping centers on the waterfront. Enjoyed the artwork and the paintings. Don't miss the afternoon High Tea.

We spent 4 nights at the Table Bay hotel right on the Victoria and Alfred waterfront. The view of Table mountain was amazing and shopping and restaurants were close by. The breakfast buffet was the most extensive I have ever experienced although it was sometimes difficult to get a table in the Atlantic Grill. The High Tea was also excellent.... More

Recently stayed here for 6 days. The hotel rooms are lovely and give a extra special touch however do not ask for anything in addition like ice because it just does not happen. Buffet breakfast is large, food ok, the service in this area needs lots of help. The staff tends to spend a lot of time talking amoungst themselves.... More

Beautiful hotel ideally located at the V&A Waterfront. Highly recommend their breakfasts too!! We received an upgraded room overlooking the ocean. The service is friendly who makes one feel like royalty whilst staying there. From the waterfront hop on and off buses can be taken for tours in and around Cape Town.

Excellent experience....we were treated like royalty! Very romantic ;) It is connected to a mall with plenty of shopping. Easy access to the shops and restaurant along the water. There is a huge variety of things to do within walking distance, and many excursions are offered straight from or near the hotel. Breakfast and lunch buffets had plenty to choose... More

For a world class place to stay, with exceptionally tight security, you couldn't do better than Table Bay Hotel. While not entirely immune from African "features" (like finding someone else's suitcase delivered to my room, or leaving an envelope with the concierge for someone to come pick up, which was then delivered to my room) but the staff are very...
