    Cheaper prices for locals... then we can stay there much more often :)

    Breakfast was very nice! Dinner was a bit of a mess up.... We did order 2 x 500grams of fillets and we then received 2 x 300grams instead.... My one fillet was ordered with mash and chips but received roasted veggies instead... Otherwise it was good.

    Amazing hotel, the staff were incredible and so accommodating. The room was exactly like the pictures, we couldn't fault it. Great location as well which is a plus! Would highly recommend staying here and would stay here again if we head back to Cape Town!

    Most beautiful boutique hotel! Super friendly staff- customer care is always at the highest level The biggest surprise: when we asked for a taxi to the airport at 7 am in the morning , we even the owner was driving us with his own car and didn’t want to accept a charge. Finally he only accepted an extra tip for his team which proofs that he must be an excellent employer and host.

    Nothing really - we had an amazing stay. It is not inexpensive, but it is worth it.

    This is still one of the most pleasant hotels I ever stayed. An oasis in the middle if the city, safe, clean, a nice audience and an amazing staff. We stayed here a number of times before and will definitely be back next time we visit capetown

    Everything is perfect. I spent 12 days in Cape Town and Garden Route. The last 2 nights I choose to treat myself well. It does worth the price! I really enjoy the massage bathtub in the spa and also lying on the deckchair in personal area.

    Not a thing.

    The decor and style was very nice. It’s the staff however that make this place something special and they all should be credited for how good it is. I only wish we had more staff like this in the UK.

    I didn't like the loction of the room half a flight of stairs down from the pool area, although it had a small private outside area. But the hotel offers to book specific rooms, so next time we know what to look for.

    Great, friendly service. Nice rooms, although next time we would book one with a balcony. The location is great for us. Quiet, not far from the sea front and close enough to the waterfront and city.

    Personally didn’t love the sea point area but that’s just my opinion.

    Amazing staff working here - some of the best I have come across anywhere in the world - couldn’t be more helpful and positive. Room was lovely top floor - showing its age slightly but no big deal. Nice pool area. Attracts a good crowd so other guests were nice to be around.

    Didn't like the fact that people were smoking right outside ones room on pool deck. A bit noisy/ loud on a Sunday with many "day visitors" (non hotel residents) .

    Friendly, helpful , kind staff . Lovely rooms, Great food and service. Beautiful setting. Secure , off street parking.

    Second room (13) was a little tired.

    We stayed one two different occasions over two weeks spent traveling around SA and cannot speak highly enough. The facilities and staff were exceptional. The pool and poolside facilities are superb and get morning and afternoon sun. Both pools are good sizes and very clean. The breakfasts offered a great mix of hot and cold as well as pastries and fruit salads. Location - Sea Point is gives very quick access via Uber to Camps Bay, Clifton and the fee V and A. We had no trouble at getting Ubers and seeing what the city offers and using The Glen as a base. We would recommend to and definitely return. We had a poolside room on our first stay which was superb.
