The fact that we wanted to explore the whole of cape town in the three days that we stayed, meant that the hotel was used only for sleeping! It was comfortable, afforded a view of the sea, the beach was close...a 100 mts walk, V&A waterfront was close by... The staff at the reception informed us when we reached at... More

We chose to stay here because of the convenience of sea point as a central location. And this hotel seemed to be a good value.
