Holiday Inn Express Cape Town City-Centre by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"So efficient & friendly "

Taj Cape Town

10/10 Excellent

"This is my overall pick for Cape Town, South Africa. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel at home and just spoiled rotten. The hotel was very clean from the dining areas and rooms to the gym facility. I can't rave enough about this place! The food was incredible! Definitely 5 star quailty on everything. "

The Rockefeller Hotel by NEWMARK

6/10 Okay

"Well-kitted rooms - they thought of everything! Housekeeping after that was poor. Staff were very friendly though and breakfast was a hit! Service was at times very frustrating as things had to be repeated for any action to take place. Management or supervisory intervention was absent. Great place physically but the friendly staff need to deliver as well."
