We were fortunate to land at the Cape Grace after arrangements at another hotel fell through. We had a two-bedroom suite and it had tons of space and was elegantly appointed. The entire staff was amazing, ready to cater to any request or just showing friendliness and thoughtfulness. The location is also great - close to the action but far enough away that we didn’t hear all the noise. Highly recommend staying here.

What an amazing time we had with a 10/10 service. Really made the stay worthwhile and were treated like V.I.P. Food was fresh and so tasty. The atmosphere and the tranquil ambiance really made it amazing. Will def be back to have that same luxury experience.

This hotel was great for a couple of days in Cape Town! The room was very spacious and clean. The hotel location is also ideal with it being walking distance to the V&A Waterfront. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast at the restaurant was also very good and was awesome that was open so early before tours. Would definitely stay here again!

A beautiful, classic and welcoming hotel on the V & A Waterfront. With a recent refurbishment, the Cape Grace is a stunning luxury hotel. Our room was on the third floor overlooking the harbor and was beautifully furnished. While classic in design it also incorporates more contemporary features. Breakfasts were extensive including a buffet as well as cooked to order. From the staff to the location to the amenities, you can’t go wrong staying at this iconic Cape Town hotel.

The newly renovated Cape Grace Fairmont is a true gem—luxurious, elegant, and perfectly located by the marina near top restaurants and the V&A Waterfront. Rooms are spacious with stunning views, and the staff are genuinely warm and attentive. A flawless Cape Town stay.

Wow, what a property, what history, what style and the #1 takeaway - what personalization! No wonder guests come back over and over and over. Absolutely gorgeous decor and detail throughout the entire property, rooms, common area and the outside areas on the water, including the very well appointed pool area. Loved it! **2024 I returend with two back to back groups and after a #15 day stay in the destination this was voted their favorite by ALL of them! The rooms, the spa, the service, the restaurants and bars ALL surpassed my expectations and I am so glad it was my first stop for my two groups on my itinerary. I was a bit anxious about Fairmont's changes to the classic vibe of the original Cape and although it is definitely different, Fairmonts bring their own level of class and staff shared they welcomed the improvements/changes. This property will ALWAYS be on my itineraries for myself and clients.

Wonderfully appointed hotel within a stones throw of the V&A and ideal for a short or longer break in the city. On arrival we were greeted with big miles and welcome, lovely reception team and smooth check-in process. The room was large with French doors and a lovely view of Table Mountain and a small harbour. The bed was very comfortable and the room offered a table and two comfy chairs by the doors to sit and enjoy a breeze and the view. It had a large wardrobe and dressing room area leading to a large bathroom with bath and shower together with a separate toilet and double sink. Lovely soap products in the room added to the luxury feel. Air conditioning was excellent without being too cold or noisy. Overall a lovely room with nice calming decor and colour scheme. The hotel had a comfortable bar/lounge area off the reception which was very pleasant for tea/coffee and drinks throughout the day and evening. Restaurant offered a superb breakfast along with great lunch and dinner menus. Staff were welcoming and efficient and we enjoyed all our meals here. Outside pool is small and also an outside bar and dining area, pleasant. They also have a spa with a great choice of treatments and we enjoys a 2.5hr pamper session which was superb and good value. We would highly recommend this hotel for its friendliness of staff, luxury rooms and public areas and overall ambiance and atmosphere - well done Cape Grace team.
