South AfricaBeautiful building, lovely dining area serving a huge selection of delicious options for breakfast, fabulous friendly staff. One morning felt adventurous and moved away from eggs benny and took our waitress’ suggestion of French toast with bacon and banana-taste sensation!! We booked a club access room with mountain/ city view and were initially shown to a beautiful room on the 7th floor, huge balcony but a big wall and no view. We went to see Innocence, the ‘butler’ in the exec lounge, who liaised with reception and relocated us to a beautiful room with floor to ceiling view of table mountain from the bedroom and lounge room (both had small balconies) Innocence was wonderful- Mr fixit; nothing was too much trouble, and he had the best smile and positive demeanour. Room comfortable, bed really comfy, room service very good. Great massage and facial in the day spa. Pleasant dinner at Raj restaurant, lovely setting but service a little pretentious for us.
AustraliaTraditional 5 stars hotel in the center of Cape Town. Very rich breakfast.
Italybreakfast was excellent ! Valet service and concierge service were both very good!!
United KingdomThe hotel experience was beyond our expectation. The table mountain view was from the balcony was excellent. The meals at Bombay Brasserie was one of the best restaurant we had experienced. The Master Chef David went out his way to see that we were comfortable.

Israelthe breakfast was amazing. thank you to the staff who were so professional
South AfricaBreakfasts were excellent and staff were very attentive, Our evening meals in the 2 restaurants were both superb. It was great to have the shuttle service available to take us to various locations and also a car to take us to the port for the next stage of our holiday. We enjoyed the walking tour from the hotel. It was most informative.
United KingdomThe bed was very comfortable. The room was stunning and I loved the bathroom
