Better Than Expected
Not being familiar with the city, I am glad I decided to go with the Portswood. The hotel was excellent and had a very friendly and helpful staff. My expedia.com rate included breakfast and internet everyday. The hotel is a one minute walk to the Waterfront area with shopping, dining, cinema, aquarium and so on. This area is open late so you won’t be bored in the evenings. The concierge can arrange tours and transportation. This was a very beautiful and cozy hotel and I was extremely satisfied.

I believe the word (convenient) will be suitable if we talk about the price, the location, the cleanliness, the comfort or even the friendly way of treating the customers. I loved the hotel and do recommend this hotel to anyone wants to visit Cape Town
