Stayed here for a night to celebrate a birthday and it was exactly the kind of special experience that one hopes for when deciding to splurge on a hotel like this one. Service was very personal including gifts and notes. We were upgraded to a gorgeous suite and could not have asked for a more beautiful room in this historic hotel. Had the indulgent high tea service and loved learning from Craig. The buffet breakfast offerings were so plentiful and tempting that after I ate I sat for an hour until I had room to enjoy more. The pool, heated to the perfect temperature, was somewhere I could have stayed for the rest of my life in a comfy loungers. If you are considering a stay here, please don't hesitate to treat yourself!

Thabisa was amazing and so kind. I had to adjust my reservation last minute and they were very accommodating. This was the best and most fancy high tea I’ve ever experienced. If I’m ever in Cape Town again I would do this again in a heartbeat.
