Convenient
We only stayed here 1 night, it was exactly what we needed, in walking distance to the robben island ferry. The staff was very helpful and friendly. I loved the white wine served as a welcome drink. Our room was comfortable and the area close to amenities.

Pleasant and convenient
Hotel was in a good location for bars and restaurants, as well as being relatively close, in walking distance, to the V&A. The staff were very friendly and helpful, however, a little inconsistent. They kindly arranged for a taxi for us to Newlands on the first day, at a reasonable cost, however, when we asked for the same on the second day, the cost almost doubled. We therefore took a 20 minute walk to the railway station for 90% cheaper. The room was spacious and clean for our 8 night stay, and we would definitely use it again if in Cape Town.

4/10 Fair

Fine for a night, but not an extended stay
The room was very bare bones and not nicely decorated. The bathroom was very tiny with no window and the shower curtain was so thin the water went right through it. The couch had been very worn and was sunken in the middle. The bed was so tiny and was hard for 2 people to sleep in, so one of us spent several nights sleeping on the couch. We had a patio door, but it didn’t open. One of our 2 air conditioners didn’t work and only the living room window opened. It was hard to air out the room. The pool was also dirty when we went to use it. The staff closed it down to clean but it still took a long time. The staff was friendly and helped us in any way they could. We could also see the New Years Eve fireworks from the pool area. We didn’t have breakfast at the hotel but there are plenty of nearby places to get breakfast. Part of the reason this hotel was so disappointing was because the week prior we stayed at the Protea hotel down the street and that hotel was so modern and comfortable. The amenities were much nicer. Just know all Protea Marriott hotels are not the same.

Access issue
I arrived around 11pm. All access to property was closed and no signage or people to advise what to do. I had to walk around at that hour with car parked on road to figure out what to do. I eventually found a buzzer and someone opened. not good.

Friendly staff, but hotel condition is old.
Staff and service were wonderful and accommodating to all requests. However the hotel is dated and worst part was the two elevators never worked at the same time. Each day it would be one or the other and when you're unlucky the working elevator takes 10 minutes to arrive when called or even longer.

Great view. Great room. Desk staff great. Negatives however: Disappointed the pool looked a little under the weather and we did not use it. Water was green. Cleaning staff needs to learn to not hold elevators. Sometimes long waits for one.

Great location for DIY apart hotel
Great location and very reasonable facilities if you get the studio apartment and can make use of the living room and kitchen. Don’t expect any extensive service from the front desk beyond struggling to open the parking garage. WiFi’s functions b at low speed. Still a nice environment nearby and 15 minutes walk to the V&A complex.

Perfect hotel
It was amazing. The hotel is in a prime location right opposite V&A Waterfront. Wifi was a bit poor but the rest was amazing.

Upgraded to suite without asking. Room was huge and had a great view. Furnishings and decor just a bit tired but everything was clean and comfortable. Had a really big 2-person tub but did not use it due to the recent water issues. Conversely, the shower stall was cramped for me (6 ft., 170 lb. male). Thanks

Considering the price point the location is great walk to the waterfront as well as other shops, cafes, supermarkets etc. Room was nothing flashy but it was modern, clean and spacious. Great views on the higher floors. Lots of fresh fruit and eggs cooked to order for breakfast. Pool is nice although the busy street runs by it. The entrance is a bit confusing...I used the man door to the parking garage and then up the elevator...still not sure if there was another way in and I got locked out once. Wifi is spotty, itll drive you nuts.
