Staying at this hotel felt just like being at home away from home. The room was spacious, nicely furnished, but lacking windows. The service was incredible, with assistance in setting up dinner and diligent room sanitization. The location is a bonus for being right opposite the main activities in Cape Town. The dining facilities were not ideal without windows, but gourmet salads were perfect.

Staying at this hotel was a perfect choice for exploring Sea Point and the whole Cape region. The rooms were not only clean and comfortable but also had a huge balcony with a lovely sea view. The hotel's location was excellent, just a stone's throw from the safe and private Sea Point promenade, offering easy access to nearby amenities and MyCiti buses. However, the dining experience was disappointing with a price cap per person, and there were some minor issues with the payment process.

The hotel offers spacious and exquisite rooms, though mine wasn't ready upon arrival. The service was exceptional, especially in helping with car hire issues. The location, overlooking the Sea Point promenade, is great for walks but marred by construction noise. The dining experience was subpar with no windows and high prices. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few ups and downs.

I absolutely loved this hotel! The location is superb, right across from the Sea Point Promenade, making it ideal for enjoying the beautiful views and easy access to Cape Town and the Waterfront. The rooms are spacious, with a huge balcony that faced towards the majestic mountains. The service was outstanding, with efficient and friendly staff always going the extra mile to assist. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown, as the venue had a cap on spending, but the fresh-baked scones were delightful. Overall, a fantastic stay with great value for money.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a TV in both the living area and bedroom, sharing a balcony that could feel slightly insecure if a window is left open. It boasts a great size and is conveniently located next to the beach and only about 10 minutes away from the V&A Waterfront mall.

The service was incredible, with the staff going above and beyond to assist us, even helping set up a dinner and ensuring everything was clean.
