Enjoyed the daily breakfast and walking to the V&A only took 10-15 minutes so very convenient. Hotel was clean and spacious. One thing to mention was you can hear water pipes when showering which did not bother us one bit.

I love the atmosphere of this place! I felt extremely inside the hotel, however bc of homeless people outside the perimeter we weren’t allowed to walk anywhere, which is the case for most of the city. Too bad since it’s only a 5 min walk to waterfront but Uber was easy and cheap. The food at the bar was fantastic and all the staff were very accommodating and pleasant. The water heater/pump is very loud. Overall this is a great place and I would return back.

We came for our honeymoon and had an amazing time. We expected the “presidential” room to be much better than it was. The floors have horrible water damage and you have to leave the windows open at night to escape the smell of mold. The property did not have all of the amenities it listed, such as the golf. And you had to ask for new towels if you wanted them. The staff was nice and it was a 15 min walk to the v and a. Just hoped this would be a nice facility than it was.

Summary: They have roaches. I "stayed" in 2 different rooms due to plumbing issues. Cons: 1. Saw 7 roaches during my stay. I have a video where I captured 2 under wine glasses. Had to unpack my suitcases in the garage when I got home so I didn’t infest my home with roaches. Couldn't make use of the kitchen or eat in my room for fear of attracting more roaches. 2. Bathtubs are gorgeous but dont function. Bathtub in 1st room was clogged and 2nd room was leaking. 3. Because plumbing is connected, the shower in my 1st room didn't drain properly. Shower in 2nd room drained fine. 4. Small homeless encampment outside the hotel gate so the gate is closed at night. Alternate entrance is used after 7pm. Pros: 1. Decor is nice. Rooms look like pictures but couldn't appreciate it over fear of roaches. FYI - rooms are in a co-working building which didnt bother me at all but might some. 2. Location is central. Safe to walk alone during the day. Uber is cheap so ride at night if you are alone. I would spend my money elsewhere.

When we arrived we were expecting a King or Twin Bed set-up but found a small double, apparently Expedia misrepresent the bed size for a luxury room, so watch out!! Though the property is in a beautiful converted warehouse and is a working concept of hotel and working space, it doesn't fully operate as a functioning hotel. A bit style over substance, open shower into the bedroom (not great when sharing with a friend), sink doesn't have anywhere to put handsoap or toothbrush instead constantly leaning over the toilet!! Difficult to get hold of additional towels, ladies ask way in advance of a shower, also don't be freaked out by the very noisy plumbing system, not just your room but others too!! Location is great for getting to the waterfront and also mooching to the restaurants in the cape quarter. Overall bit style over substance at the moment, if service standards increased would consider heading back as location is a winner. To note be prepared for post 7pm access through back street car park, defo not safe feeling during load shedding!
