We have just left the One & Only after a 5 Nights night stay, from when we was pulled up at the Entrance and was met and shown in by the Excellent Charlie it was an insight of how good this Hotel was going to be. I just can’t fault it in any way, the staff are just Exceptional. Everyone of them so lovely and humble. The Hotel is just Stunning and has the most amazing Back Drop of Table Mountain behind. It has a beautiful Pool Area which many Hotels in the Water front don’t have.. It’s a 5 Star of the highest quality. Its A Must book if you on Cape Town and want a bit of quality. It’s right on top of the Water Front and very very safe which is a must. Cheers Room 216

Wow wow wow what an afternoon - the best afternoon tea ever - the food - the view of Table Mountain and could not have been looked after better by the fab Ashley who spoilt us rotten - thank you so much Ashley from your wine knowledge to just being so lovely - you made our last day in Cape Town a memorable one

After a long journey from New York we could not have been received more warmly and graciously. The hotel is beautiful, elegant, sophisticated and a pleasure to stay at. The staff is exceptional in all ways. We were almost always greeted with our names. Breakfast was not only delicious, but a visual feast.. We had a lovely dinner at the Rooi which was delicious. We can’t say enough positive things about this hotel and hope someday to get back!

I highly recommend this bar - amazing service with a team of mainly wonderful female staff - Eunice and Zoe particularly helpful and Elton behind the bar - views are spectacular and our dinner was delicious - the champagne was a super start also !

The hotel standard, facilities and its location could not be bettered. All the staff were so genuinely polite and helpful. We have travelled a lot and stayed at many top rated hotels, including other One and Only hotels, but Cape Town surpassed them all in terms of the overall experience.
