10/10 Excellent
"The staff was one of the most outstanding things about this property. Sometimes you go to places that are nice but the staff does not understand customer service. But this staff did especially the dinning room staff. Great job"

Hotel Sky Cape Town

Hotel Sky Cape Town

8/10 Good
"Centrally located with easy walking access to the V & A waterfront area, and across the street from the confernce centre. The rooms are considerably smaller than they appear in the photos, but the linens, pilllows and towels are all very good. The restaurant food is very good, and the breakfast buffet is excellent. For the price, the Hotel Sky is great value."

"A very good airport hotel which is about 30mins taxi from the center of Cape Town. The buffet breakfast offers a good range of hot and cold items. No noise from the airport could be heard in our bedroom. The hotel provides an airport shuttle service."

ONOMO Hotel Cape Town - Inn on the Square

ONOMO Hotel Cape Town - Inn on the Square

8/10 Good
"Super nice staff everywhere in the hotel. I found 2 issues that could be better. First the bed had no top sheet only a duvet, so when it was too hot there was nothing to cover up with. Easy to fix. Next was the noise from the square, as an older building the windows did little to block the noise of vendors setting up and tearing down, and the drumming went on for 3 hours at midnight. Not a restful night needs improvement."

Cape Town Beach Travel Guide

South Africa’s mother city, Cape Town manages to mix a bustling city with laid-back beach vibes. Best known for the iconic Table Mountain, one of the seven wonders of the world, thousands visit the city every year just to climb atop of it or get their perfect shot of the mountain. For travellers, it is an accessible city with airports, steady public transport system and taxis.

Beach Hotels in Cape Town

Like most large cities of the world, Cape Town has no shortage of hotels to suit every budget. From high-rise extravagant hotels to basic low-budget hotels, you will not have any trouble finding the right hotel in this city. When it comes to beach hotels, you will also be spoilt with incredible views from some and, should there not be a view, there is always the option of choosing a hotel that has the beach on its doorstep.

Beach Activities in Cape Town

With its vast diversity when it comes to culture, food and landscape, Cape Town is an exciting beachside city to be in.

For those looking for an active holiday then this is a good place to have one. The city has a number of beach activities to make the most out of, including surfing and volleyball. There is also the possibility of hiking to the top of Table Mountain; or abseiling to the bottom of it.

Beyond the city is then the Cape Peninsula, where vineyards and more epic scenery can be found. Take a day trip or plan a few nights away at a vineyard to soak up the very best of South African wine. Stellenbosch is probably the most well-known and within this area can be found popular and lesser-known wineries. Why not treat yourself to a night away somewhere like Franschhoek, a quaint and idyllic location that has some of the most magnificent vineyards close by and views that are to die for.

Beach Restaurants and Bars in Cape Town

Cape Town is, of course, well primed for good food and drink. Home to some of the world’s most incredible vineyards, you will be overwhelmed by the choice of wines to sample. When it comes to food, the South African love a good barbecue (or Braai as it’s locally known). Venture to one of the city’s classic Braai restaurants for a classic meat-filled meal. There are also some great vegetarian and seafood restaurants in the city if meat is not your thing. Visit Bree Street, one of the city’s hippest and most diverse streets when it comes to food selection and cool places to hang out in the evening.
