    luxury city view
    complimentary wine tasting
    friendly staff
    limited family activities

    We enjoyed complimentary wine tasting and made new friends while staying in a luxury king room with a city view. The hotel is perfectly located for exploring the city, and the staff went above and beyond to provide us with excellent recommendations for dining and activities.

    In my kids’ opinion, it would be great if there were more family-specific activities available during our stay.

    spacious rooms
    delicious breakfast
    missed airport transfer

    Had a great time with friends! We enjoyed the complimentary city walking tour and the wine tasting – it was a fun way to meet other guests. The rooms were spacious, and breakfast was delicious. Don't miss out on the shuttle service. it makes getting around so easy!

    Our airport transfer didn't show up, which was a bit frustrating, but the hotel offered a complimentary transfer back to the airport as compensation.

    staying here was a fantastic experience since it put me just a few steps from the lively Bo-Kaap neighborhood and the historic District Six Museum, allowing me to easily soak in the local culture.
