Excellent location. Security non-existent which was a surprise. But other than that was a good stay

The hotel management team is extremely annoying. Because the itinerary needed to be rescheduled, I went to the store in person many times to negotiate for rescheduling or refund. The Indian manager verbally agreed to a refund and asked me to suggest that it be processed through the App. After communicating through the App, he changed his mind and refused to communicate many times. He neither accepted rescheduling nor refunds, not even adjusting it forward by one day. In the end, I had no choice but to waste two suites and lose 7,000 rand.

This small hotel is well located on Sea Point front. All the staff we interacted with were lovely and professional too. It only has a tiny car park, (maybe for 5 cars?) which meant we often had to search for off street parking. One evening we had to park quite a long way away. Late at night returning from dinner we didn't like this. We had a ground floor room which was a good size - but not a suite as the name suggests - and it had a very modern feel to it, especially the lovely bathroom. There was a small terrace too but only a view of a wall and the flats opposite and above the wall. Unfortunately you could hear everything from outside in the foyer, especially at 6.45am when the housekeeping team arrived and bashed about and shouted to each other. Most likely because it's tiled, the sound is amplified but they should be aware of this. We didn't appreciate being awoken so early every day. Maybe some large rugs would solve this? Surely the hotel is aware of this? We booked massages at the on-site spa (quite likely a separate company to the hotel) for 10am. We arrived promptly but at 10.15 we clearly heard the spa manager calling the therapist and admonishing her for being late for work etc as she still hadn't turned up. At that point we cancelled our spa booking and went elsewhere. Finally, we booked a deal which included breakfast, you take this in an on-site but again, quite likely a separate business. However, you only get a spend of R130, which simply doesn't cover a coffee and a decent breakfast. They then surcharge the difference. It wasn't much money - so why bother - but if you do stay here, you may as well just buy your breakfast separately. Because of being woken so early, we wouldn't return or recommend, which is a shame as the staff and management are absolutely fantastic.

Good location and near supermarket, eateries, cafe, laundry and convenient store. It is in front of the beach. It could get noisy at night as the pubs are nearby.

Pros: Great location, beautiful views, shops & restaurants nearby, heated indoor pool Cons: 6 story hotel, but the elevator only goes to 5th floor & has to carry bags up flight of stairs, roof leaked so there was water/towels in the hallway on rainy days, refrigerator in room was very noisy

This hotel is perfectly located. It right in front of the Promenade for beautiful views and strolling/running . Also right across the street is the hugs and wonderful Sea Point Swimming Pool. Stop 10 for the Cape Town Hop On/Hop Off and other tour pick ups is also just across the street. Wonderful restaurants, grocery stores, stores, etc are also right there close by as in less than 100 meters away. We stayed in a 2 bedroom Unit with a full kitchen that was fully stocked with plates, cookware, big refrigerator, etc, (Room C1). The unit was very comfortable and spacious. It has wonderful views and a big seaside balcony with a big table. The staff was very helpful and Athena and Louis went above an beyond in assisting us before and during our stay there. Highly recommend and I will stay there when I go back to Cape Town. Their cafe, Jooma, has excellent and great value breakfast, lunch and dinner and offers from coffee, Chai to soda and wine.
