We had the pleasure of starting our honeymoon here for 4 days. We have never experienced such incredible luxury, service and comfort from start to finish. The staff are unbelievably attentive, helpful and courteous. We have been treated like royality and thoroughly spoilt. Our room was beautifully decorated with rose petals on our arrival, spotlessly clean with beautiful touches including a bottle of bubbles, chocolates and biscuits. The daily gifts left in our room was an extra special touch that we can bring home with us to remember such a wonderful time. The spa is a must! Fantastic facilities and the relaxation room was a lovely little surprise! We had the couples massage I chose a relaxing one and my husband chose to have a deep tissue both of us left feeling amazing! Again the staff went above and beyond even bringing hair products and a brush so I didn’t need to return to my room. Thank you to each and every member of staff that has made the start of our adventure one we will never forget.

We had the most amazing person serving us, his name is Ash....he went above and beyond to make our afternoon special even though it was on short notice. It was our wedding anniversary and we spontaneously decided to have an afternoon at the One & Only. In all my years of dining I've never received service of this standard....HE IS THE BEST! Thank you Ash for creating the most amazing memories for us in Cape Town. Sending lots of love and will definitely see you soon :-)

Our stay at the One & Only was perfect. This was the last leg our holiday having done a safari and a visit to Stellenboch. We arrived in the beautiful busy city of Cape Town, however when we were in the hotel we felt nothing but cosseted, calm and relaxed. The rooms are serene and the staff go out of their way to make your feel welcome.
