Staying at this hotel was a wonderful experience. The rooms were very nice, with plenty of space for me and my husband. However, the light coming in through the blinds in the morning made it a bit hard to sleep in. The service was outstanding, with warm and friendly staff who were incredibly kind and helpful. The location was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the authentic feel of the city, with lovely views of the beach and Table Mountain. The dining experience was the cherry on top, especially while embracing the beautiful views. Overall, a great stay with a few minor issues.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully designed with a view of the mountains and sea, although it felt a bit too 'modern' for my taste. The cost was on the higher side at $750, which included a plunge pool that I didn't use much. If a cheaper room without the pool is available, I'd go for that option.
