“Great hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 25, 2012

Stayed there on business in November. Rooms are modern, clean. Food excellent. Location superb. Just thought the price for breakfast was way too expensive. Found staff not too attentive, you have to hunt the waiter down for some coffee at breakfast.

Room Tip: Ensure your room rate includes breakfast.

“Stylish hotel near lively Long Street and Museums”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

Hotel is modern and stylish. Long Street with its restaurants and bars is in walking distance (5 minutes). From the upper floors one has a great view of table mountain.
On the roof top, there is a small pool (weather was too cold for me to use the pool) with a great vista of table mountain and downtown Cape Town.
Museums are next door, and also a stop of the red double decker sight seeing buses (strongly recommended for those who have little time, yet still want to see a bit of Cape Town and surroundings (at a very reasonable price).

Room Tip: Ask fpor a room on the upper floors (vista). Avoid a room with window towards the internal court (Lo...

“High quality - quiet.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 7, 2012

Spacious, clean, tastefully furnished and everything works.
So if you are looking for a centrally located hotel in Cape Town, that is the right choice.

I took the entry room and was very positively surprised.
The downside is that the view is on the the hotel lobby, so do not expect to be waken up by the sunshine or the noise of the ocean. On the other hand your sleep will not be affected by noise.

Staff is courteous, smiling and will take your feedbacks seriously.
You are within walking distance from Gardens and Long market, which makes it centrally located.

Can only recommend it and will return.

“Luxurious but quiet”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 26, 2012

Really good hotel, immaculate decor, big room. Turn down service at night. Staff very polite and hard working. The views are spectacular. Great terrace to sit out on. The Breakfast was OK but not as good as it could have been. The hotel would be better for business than holidays.

“absolutley fabulous!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 24, 2012

one of the best, not overly expensive hotels. So it's not on the beach but it is walking distance to the cafe society of Kloof and the CBD with its great old architecture and cathedral. The hotel itself is modern, with great spa facilities, a superb restaurant with the option of a three course meal at a set price (when I was there it was R185) or a la carte, the most helpful concierge desk and great staff. The suite I was lucky enough to stay in was the size of a small apartment and the bathroom - just divine!

Can't say enough superlatives I would go back tomorrow and it is a short drive from there to all of the other great attractions; table mountain, Hout Bay, Camps Bay, Waterfront etc.

LOVE IT!

Room Tip: I had a suite and they were all fabulous but wouldn't recommend the standard rooms in the middle...
