I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel; the rooms were better than expected, though a bit noisy due to the street activity. The hotel is huge by Cape Town standards, with modern finishes and all necessary amenities. The location was convenient for exploring the city, great for Uber pickups, but not ideal for solo women travelers. The service was exceptional with friendly and helpful staff. The dining experience was amazing, offering delicious meals with reasonable prices. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was smaller than expected initially, but the alternative room provided was cool and well-maintained. The rooms were spacious, clean, and modern. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff available at all times. The location, while perfect for its proximity to restaurants and stores, felt a bit unsafe at night and noisy due to street markets. The dining experience, especially the buffet breakfast, was amazing. The facilities were more than generous, making my stay enjoyable.

The hotel rooms are HUGE for Cape Town standards with high ceilings, modern finishes, and all the amenities you need. My stay was comfortable and clean, although I had to change rooms, the second one facing Market street. The service was exceptional, with a very accommodating and friendly staff who knew my name upon arrival. The central location was perfect for exploring the city on foot and convenient for Uber rides. The dining options were generous, and the meals were warm and well-prepared. The hotel facilities were top-notch, making my stay enjoyable.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with spacious rooms that are modern and well-equipped, although a full-length mirror would have been handy. The service was exceptional from the moment I arrived, with a friendly and helpful staff ready to assist. The location was convenient for exploring the city during the day, but it did feel slightly unsafe at night due to the nearby street markets causing noise. The dining options were varied and well-prepared, although there were some delays in service. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
