"Rooms need more sockets, ideally beside the bedside table. Good location. Friendly staff who are happy to help."

Location

They gave me a room key for a room already occupied so when I walked in I disturbed a amorous couple. Don’t give me a good feeling as a solo female traveller. The reception were very apologetic though.

"weekend in Cape Town"

9.0

The accommodation, the room was very nice, clean and quiet. The location of the hotel is ideal. I asked for a quiet room and even though the hotel was probably quite full, I got the room I wanted. Thank you. Cleaning, water in the room, evening service, everything was great. This time we paid extra for a better room and the difference compared to the last visit is noticeable. I recommend staying in a better category.
