I liked everything about the hotel but the internet service. I am planning another trip to Capetown. This time with my family and Fountains Hotel is the hotel I would like to stay in

The internet service was the most horrible I have ever seen. It is unspeakably painful the money for the internet service

Everything was clean and the actual room was actually a suite.

The hotel type and location was more suitable for business people than for a leisure break. The rooms were very clinical and lacked any character. The reception staff were generally unhelpful with one exception. The claim to have a swimming pool is outrageous - it turned out to be a narrow strip of water barely wide enough for one person to swim in - it looked like a fish tank.

It met our needs perfectly. Was close to the Convention Center for my conference (and much cheaper than the hotels nearer the CC). Was convenient to downtown tourist places. The staff were friendly and effective. Meals at hotel were decent -- better places to eat elsewhere.

We had trouble with an international calling card. Still don't know if it was the hotel's phone system or our card. (However the hotel put us through to US and didn't even charge us for the brief call)

I stayed in a suite and it was great. It is clean and well kept, but a bit hollow. A bit of decor would be nice.

The location and size of the room

The carpets were dirty, the shower leaked into the entryway and the hotel generally needs updates.
