Ok hotel in great location
We had a mixed experience here. PROS: Great location within easy walk of beach and restaurants and decent value for money. Our room (a superior) was spacious and comfy king bed. Plunge pool nice. CONS: Our room was on the same floor as the reception / communal lounge area where breakfast was served. This made it very noisy and we were woken every day around 6am by the noise of staff setting up. The bathroom was all glass which meant NO privacy - not ideal. And while our plunge pool was nice there wasn't any lounging furniture so no where comfortable to sit by it. OK: Staff service was mixed with minimal communication. The breakfast was fine, but nothing to rave about. I think most superior rooms are on the upper levels, so maybe we were unlucky. But we were paying the same price as those who would have had MUCH better views (we could see the sea through power lines!) and were away from the noise. Avoid rooms 1, 2, and 11.

Can't beat the location!
This hotel is good value for the money. The location is great, just a few minutes from the ocean and an easy walk to some good restaurants. Parking is a breeze, as the spots are under the hotel in a structure. The hotel is a little dated but it's clean and everything works. Bed is comfortable, breakfast (hot and cold) is good. The staff are kind and pleasant, but the service was a little hit and miss. Sometimes everything goes well, other times the staff seems preoccupied. Of course when the manager was there, everything is spot on. Would recommend.

The hotel has a superb elevated position with stunning sea views over Camps Bay and The Lion's Head Mountain. There was only a 2 minute walk to the main shops, restaurants & beach at Camps Bay. The staff were very friendly & helpful, they helped us with local advice and with arranging tickets/excursions/restaurant bookings etc.

The hotel is right next to Camps Bay - an easy walk. The view of the ocean from the balcony while having breakfast is a great way to start your day. Convenient parking for a small car. Proximity token access to the front door 24/7. The bathroom was very clean. Notices remind guests of the water shortage problem. The bed was comfortable. The A/C worked well (and was quiet). A mini-bar provides water and a few other drinks. Pay when you leave (honesty system).

Return to hotel after a previous stay 13 years ago. Still a lovely hotel with excellent location and views. First room dark and small with shower flooding bathroom, changed without fuss to much brighter room with lovely view- just wondered why we were not given this room in the first place. Staff friendly and welcoming but perhaps missing the extra attention to detail and eagerness to delight.

Nice stay
We arrived for check in at 8pm after sending an email letting the hotel know we would arrive late, but they had no record of our reservation through Expedia. We got a room that had a balcony and sea view as paid for but the pictures seemed deceiving and seemed a bit expensive. The hotel was convenient to restaurants on Camps Bay, free parking, full hot breakfast and Wifi. Room was very clean.
