It is such a beautiful hotel and stunning location. Loved the view! The staff were friendly, food was wonderful and beds were so comfortable. Everything was clean and tidy. I will definitely recommend The Westin.

Nadine South Africa

I wasn't happy with the view of the first room I was given. The front desk was amazing and quickly organized one with a better view. They also surprised us later with a bottle of champagne and choccies for our anniversary. Awesome service!

Pillay South Africa

I did not like the Westin. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED 🥰 it! The facilities were amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed the jacuzzi, lap pool, sauna, steam room and gym. The views were stunning! The refreshments (cucumber/lemon infused water) was a perfect touch to the spa area. I also loved the convenience of a coffee station in the room. The bedroom was perfectly situated with a beautiful view of the ocean. Breakfast was delicious and the cleaning staff were very efficient and friendly ( As well as the front desk staff). Thank you. This was truly a memorable early birthday treat.

Devona South Africa

We loved the facilities. the staff was great and very helpful - we just came back from a trip abroad and this hospitality is way better than the service of a 5 star hotel in both Ireland and Turkey.

Marthinus South Africa

Ideal location, huge hotel, fantastic staff and the Westin Club Lounge has amazing views over the city. This is undoubtedly one of the best hotels in Cape Town and this was my third stay with The Westin there is also an excellent selection of food and they cater for Halal which is great for my Muslim friends. I would have no hesitation in recommending The Westin, Cape Town for business, family or sight seeing in the Cape.
