Milnerton Vacations from $2,089

The location is excellent - right near Kloof st. The hotel felt very safe. My room was quite large and had nice amenities. However, the property felt more like an upscale hostel than a boutique hotel. There was constantly noise coming from downstairs (music, party sounds, etc). If that wasn't enough, the fumes of fried food from the restaurant below permeated my room. Between the oily smell and the noise, I did not sleep particularly well.

The location, apartment and facilities were excellent and the hospitality was on the same standard. Situated close to the V&A waterfront and Bo Kaap, there was little need for taxis or public transport, and there are plenty of coffee shops, supermarkets and excellent restaurants within 2 or 3 minutes walk. If we're in Cape Town again, we will seek out the loft.

Lovely stay, great hotel and fantastic location

First the parts I didn’t like. This was the apartment side of the hotel. We had a two bedroom apartment. There were two bathrooms. One had a shower, another had a tub with no shower, it was a surprise. They were both dark compared to the rest of the apartment which opened to a beach/ocean/lagoon view and very bright and beautiful. The apartment itself was quite dated and seemed to need a deep cleaning or five. The lights were bright florescent and not warm colors, made the whole apartment look and feel artificially bright with white walls reflecting the lights. The shelves in the closet seemed to have been a slapdash job while being put together, two of them came off when things were put on them. I put them back and fixed them as best as I could and didn’t use them for the rest of our stay. Parts that I liked. There were hand made oil paintings throughout the apartment/hotel. They were of varied themes and quite well done by local artists. This apartment/hotels best feature is its restaurant staff. The bar next to the restaurant gets loud and busy sometimes. But the food was excellent in both the restaurant and the bar. The location is great too, the apartment/hotel and the entry to the beach are next to each other. It’s close to the town (Century City) mall. Beautiful drive to get there too. Every morning we woke up to the view of the ocean and shops anchored. There were a couple garden areas with birds and tree, and picnic areas. The balcony was huge with seating.

One of a kind
