The hotel rooms were absolutely stunning with a view of Table Mountain, but they were a bit small for the value. They kindly provided a cot for our baby, and the family room had extra bunk beds, perfect for families. The service was a mixed bag with a super friendly and helpful staff overall, but some individuals had a bad attitude. The location was very good, ideal for exploring the V&A Waterfront and nearby attractions. The dining experience was nice, but a bit expensive and lacked inspiration. Overall, a great place with some room for improvement.

The hotel offers a glimpse into the future with rooms featuring a HUGE TV connecting to your cellphone and stunning views of Table Mountain from the bed. While functional, the rooms were slightly noisy at times. The service was a mix of forgetfulness and friendliness. The location is perfect for exploring the vibrant waterfront area and the dining experience, though varied, had room for improvement. Overall, a convenient stay with some modern touches and friendly service.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were incredibly comfortable, filled with local Cape Town-made products, and I appreciated being left undisturbed when I wanted to be. The service was top-notch, with extremely helpful and supportive staff. The location was fantastic, just a minute's walk to the V&A Waterfront, making it ideal for solo travelers and couples. The dining experience was really good overall, although it lacked lacto-vegetarian options. The facilities were well-maintained, and I couldn't have asked for more during my stay.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were as expected, spacious enough with a comfortable bed and a great walk-in shower; however, the decor with red, grey, and white colors felt a bit harsh. Being on the first floor right above the Oui bar and the PA system for the event had its pros and cons.

The hotel offered all that we needed, including good quality block-out blinds for a comfortable stay. However, the room, although described as a suite, was more of a family room without a cozy sitting area, and the non-breathing mattress protector made the beds feel damp and uncomfortable.

Wow! My stay was absolutely incredible. The hotel rooms were absolutely stunning with views of the Table Mountain, super modern and minimalist yet so comfortable with plenty of amenities. The highlight for me was the HUGE TV that connected seamlessly with my cellphone, making me feel like I was living in the future. However, I did encounter a few service issues that put a slight damper on my experience. The location was great, perfect for tourists exploring Cape Town, and the dining experience had its ups and downs with some fantastic options and others that were a bit disappointing.
