"This place was terrible. To start, they tried to make me pay again when I already paid online. I had to speak to the owner on the phone who lied to me about it and was extremely rude. I booked two private rooms and they tried to make me share a room with another guest. I refused because I paid more to have my own room. They do not provide wifi like is advertised and when I pressed the owner, he gave me one coupon for 100mb internet for two rooms (4 people). I told him it was advertised online as...

"On arrival in Cape Town after a long road trip from Port Elizabeth, we were greeted with a rather unfriendly comment about not being rugby fans as we arrived during the last five minutes of a rugby game. Our booking stated that our reservation was 'bed and breakfast'. During the course of the first morning, after we already had breakfast, the owner came to our room stating that our reservation did not include breakfast upon which we referred her to our booking confirmation. She stated that there...

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very friendly and helpful. Buffet breakfast was excellent. Very clean and comfortable accommodations."

Radisson RED V&A Waterfront, Cape Town

"The hotel customer service was excellent. It included utilizing their trolley to carry our luggage to the cruise terminal at the end of the stay. The breakfast was good, try ordering the omelet. Well situated in the V&A neighborhood. Lots of restaurants close by to choose from. We used their transfer service from the airport and it was flawless."

Taj Cape Town

"We enjoyed our stay. Very helpful staff. Front desk and doormen were great. Primrose and Felicia in the restaurant were always so friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was excellent. Good location. A bit too far to walk to V&A Waterfront. Close Uber ride to the cruise port. Clean and comfortable room. No complaints at all. I’d stay there again."

Grand Daddy Boutique Hotel

"Conveniently located by shops and restaurants/ bars on Long Street, this hotel is clean and really nicely decorated. The breakfast was delicious, the beds super comfy, the bathrooms modern, and the rooms nice and quiet. What really stood out was how thoughtful and helpful the staff were — especially at the front desk. I've stayed here a couple of times now and can't wait to come back next year."

Vineyard Hotel

"Everything was wonderful! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The Italian restaurant was fantastic—easily one of the highlights of our stay. The grounds are absolutely beautiful, and I highly recommend taking some time to walk through the gardens. You may even spot a tortoise or two along the way! The drinks at the bar were delicious, and the overall atmosphere of the property was relaxing and welcoming. It’s a truly beautiful hotel, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will definitely be back! 😊"
