Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and well-equipped rooms with thoughtful amenities, while the service is exceptional. The location provides a beautiful beachfront view but may be busy during peak seasons. The dining options are delightful, and the facilities are top-notch.
Staying at this hotel was a wonderful experience. The rooms were very nice, with plenty of space for me and my husband. However, the light coming in through the blinds in the morning made it a bit hard to sleep in. The service was outstanding, with warm and friendly staff who were incredibly kind and helpful. The location was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the authentic feel of the city, with lovely views of the beach and Table Mountain. The dining experience was the cherry on top, especially while embracing the beautiful views. Overall, a great stay with a few minor issues.
The hotel has a stunning location in the hills of Camps Bay, offering beautiful views and close proximity to the best beaches in Cape Town. The rooms boast lovely mountain views, though interrupted by an ugly apartment block. The service is impeccable, making it feel like staying in a luxurious friend's house, with thoughtful touches like roses on the bed and a bottle of bubbly for special occasions. The dining experience is delightful, especially enjoying a meal by the pool with a fantastic view.
The hotel provided a stunning and clean room with a breathtaking ocean view, but marred slightly by an unsightly apartment block on the horizon. The room was beautifully appointed, offering a fully stocked mini-bar and beach amenities. The service was exceptional, making us feel genuinely welcome and cared for throughout our stay. The location was perfect in the tranquil Camps Bay area, offering privacy and great views. The dining experience was delicious, featuring a variety of fresh and cooked-to-order options. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything we needed for a luxurious stay.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully designed with a view of the mountains and sea, although it felt a bit too 'modern' for my taste. The cost was on the higher side at $750, which included a plunge pool that I didn't use much. If a cheaper room without the pool is available, I'd go for that option.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were great and had everything I needed, though they were a bit noisy at times. On the flip side, the rooms seemed small and dark.
