The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Breakfast Paradise

The breakfast buffet is nothing short of lovely! I was able to indulge in a wide array of choices from granola and mini muffins to freshly prepared eggs and crispy bacon. The highlight was definitely the maple syrup that made my waffles taste heavenly. The staff was attentive, making sure my coffee and tea needs were met promptly. The ambiance, combined with a beautiful view of Table Mountain, truly made my mornings enjoyable.

Convenient Parking

The parking facilities were extremely convenient! I appreciated the fact that the parking was free and right next to the hotel entrance. All I had to do was get my ticket stamped at reception before leaving, which made my comings and goings hassle-free. It really added to my overall positive experience. No long walks or complicated access; I loved it!

The dining experience, while tasty, could use improvement in terms of the freshness of some items.

I had a wonderful surprise at this hotel during my two-night stay! The place was spotless and had a calm atmosphere. There were cozy spots to sit outside and enjoy the view of Table Mountain. While the food was mostly great, the steak I had was quite tough. The room was comfortable and well-equipped with excellent air conditioning. I wouldn't hesitate to return for another visit.
