9.0 (61 reviews)

The Capetonian - Halal ★★★★

📍 Pier Place, Heerengracht St, Foreshore, Cape Town

"Great location! Rooms facing Table Mountain offer fantastic views, and rooms on the other side overlook the harbor, but you'll need a high floor for either. The front desk staff, both day and night shifts, were incredibly helpful and patient. Breakfast was plentiful, with generous portions and delicious food. However, the bathroom in the standard double room was quite basic and had poor drainage."

But the best thing about the hotel is its fabulous team. They are so heartwarming and professional, and everyone is so positive. Every wish you have, the team will make it happen! They are all proactive and solution-oriented, and we will definitely be back! Thank you to everyone who made our stay fantastic!"

Victoria & Alfred Hotel by Newmark
8.8 (109 reviews)

Victoria & Alfred Hotel by Newmark ★★★★

📍 on the Pierhead, Dock Rd, Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, Cape Town

"The house is small but beautiful. My child was sick at the time, so we didn't get to explore much. The service was excellent; a quick call to the front desk and help was on the way. However, the room was a bit old-fashioned, and bizarrely, the hairdryer plug didn't fit any of the outlets. The front desk eventually brought an adapter. The bathroom was very large and in a separate room, but it had no air conditioning, which was a strange setup, especially considering how cold it gets in South Africa after sunset in spring. Overall, the experience was still good."

The Tropicana Hotel ★★★
"The hotel is modern, clean, and has everything you need. There's a swimming pool and a red bus stop nearby on the embankment, and shops and bars are nearby. The rooftop pool is small. The only issue is poor soundproofing; street noise can be heard."

Their beauty, laughter, intuition, and hospitality skills are second to none, and it made our entire experience even better than imagined.

Victoria & Alfred Hotel by Newmark ★★★★
"Advantages: The hotel is in an excellent location, in the core of Cape Town's VA Waterfront, with many businesses around and food malls close by The bedding is comfortable, but small clothes are found to have residual lint, the hygiene is poor, the towels have a pungent smell of disinfectant, and the color is dark The bathroom equipment is neat, but the design style is old, the direction of the bathroom shower head lacks adjustment space, the water flow does not converge, and there is divergence The drinking water does not use international brand mineral water, the taste is ordinary, two bottles of water are tilted, the furnishings are messy, and there is no high-quality crystal cup The hotel reception lacks the luggage cart service of a five-star hotel (not actively provided) The hotel door needs to be pushed open by yourself, and there is a lack of doormen The elevator is old as a whole, the buttons have signs of wear and tear, and the tactile feedback is poor The interior space is spacious and the view is good, but it lacks a sense of technology. There are no indoor speakers, no automatic curtains, voice-controlled air conditioners, and full-house remote controls. Slippers, toothbrushes, and razors are not provided. The hotel Internet speed is about 50Mbps in the morning test, and the speed is average Combined with the overall price, it is not recommended to stay in this hotel"

The Marly Boutique Hotel ★★★★★
"Although the desk, facility staff were all exceptional, mgmt team failed to adhere to 5* luxury hotel customer service when the amenities one expects from this type hotel with a premium rate fails to meet normal operating expectations! For example, A/C first night inoperable combined with terrible noise that resulted in no sleep followed up by no water pressure during shower next morning. Despite this fact noted by the repairman the next day, hotel mgmt refused to offer any credible consideration aside from if we returned at a later date “something” may be done! After reading other reviews with similar issues, this appears to be common operating procedures!"
