Disliked: Staff & service
The hotel was fine and the breakfast buffet was better than expected. The issue is that the area is dicey after dark. Best not to wander from the hotel. There are a couple of dining options within a few meters of the hotel. The taxi prices quoted by the concierge are much higher thn normal. Best to negotiate or call a service.

Room service was super helpful. Their action was really quick and great. Room was bigger than what we thought, with this location in middle of central Cape Town, room space was outstanding. Breakfast was better than other Holiday Inn Express we stayed and we loved it. Just one thing was parking, only small space leading to the parking enterance from the street, but instead the valet parking staff was super great.

If you want to be in the heart of the city, this hotel may work for you. Staying in the core provides some weird vibes....safety officers on every corner, and appears to be unsafe after dark. Never walk alone a night....The area is walkable to the waterfront, and some great restaurants in the area. On the other hand this hotel offers good value and a great breakfast buffet. I would stay here again if visiting Cape Town.

First nights in CT & SA

Great location in downtown area. Fantastic breakfast. Excellent staff. Bed size in a standard double just a little small and bed not as comfortable as I had wished for. But overall the hotel was a perfect place as our starter location for the trip - enjoyed the great views of Table Mountain and the small rooftop gym location

I wouldn't stay here

Dodgy location at night, especially on the weekend. I'd consider staying in another location. Room was a bit grotty with my bedsheets covered in biro pen. Breakfast was not nice so we ended up going out and spending money on food. No netflix etc access on TVs in rooms.

Great staff and accomodations. Room small but laid out for efficiency. Free breakfast every morning was great. A little mold in our shower that could use some attention.
