The room is small, but the breakfast is rich. The hotel environment is good and safe. It is close to the Cape Town Business School.

The hotel is with the University of Cape Town Business School. There are many rooms, the facilities are a bit old, and the electricity is sometimes unstable. Very close to the shopping area, quiet in the bustle. The front desk was very welcoming.

I'm curious why Chinese tourists don't comment on Ctrip. I stayed for four nights and would like to share with you my objective experience of staying. The room is very small. Although the family room has been upgraded, there are two small beds in each of the two separate small rooms, which basically takes up the room space. The facilities are a bit old. Although the faucet and hardware are Hansgrohe, and the toilet is also a famous brand, they are still a bit old and cannot be compared with domestic hotels of the same price. After talking about the bad points, let’s talk about the highlights: the breakfast is very good, with a variety of varieties, and the service is in place. The restaurant is on the other side of the hotel, you need to pass through the Business School of the University of Cape Town, and you can see the Victoria Pier. The location is also very convenient: it is convenient for eating, shopping, and sightseeing. It feels like it is on the edge of the business district, suitable for walking and shopping.

Perhaps the worst hotel (and most expensive) that I have stayed at. Attached to the university of Cape Town business school. Converted from a prison and with many remaining features including the lack of comfort and decor. My room was bleak and bathroom was more like student accommodation than a hotel for business. No gym or pool.

We stayed here for five nights. I can't fault anything about this hotel. Location, rooms, staff, restaurant are all absolutely brilliant! For a first time family visit to Cape Town I totally recommend and I'll look here first when booking for next time.

Check-in was not so organized for our group and initially I was given a room in building 2, very far even got lost, could not find elevator had to walk down 2 flights of stairs with a torn right knee meniscus. Asked to change room, they could only find me a smaller room - than what I had paid for, but at least it was in main building. Location is very good, just a few minutes walk to the waterfront, breakfast good, staff very pleasant, housekeeping very good, rooms very nice.
