8.5Verified guest“The room and location were perfect, with a huge balcony overlooking the ocean and spectacular sunsets. The room was enormous – living area, bar, dressing area, big bedroom, and a nice bathroom. The manager, Michael, was the best part: so helpful and fun, he kept my son and me entertained. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful spot in Camps Bay.”
8.5Verified guest“Great value for the price. Had a wonderful four-night stay from check-in onward. The suite was tidy, had central heating, coffee and tea making facilities, and a work desk.”
8.5Verified guest“Delicious food, exceptional service, and a stunning view of the ocean. The unit was huge with coffee/tea equipment, fridges, and glassware. Feather pillows and an extra-large bed. Excellent location, a short walk from restaurants and bars. Really enjoyed the area.”
8.5Verified guest“We loved the friendly and open atmosphere, mostly thanks to Michael, which gave the hotel a boutique feel. He introduced guests to each other, so it felt like being among friends rather than in a hotel.”
