Albert

United Kingdom, October 2023

6.6/10

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Cape Town near the local market, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms, while spacious with twin beds and a functioning kitchen, were slightly let down by damaged furniture. The service varied from very friendly to somewhat reserved, with a slight hiccup regarding recognizing our confirmed reservation. The dining experience included raw fish and left something to be desired. However, the overall area and proximity to key attractions were definite highlights of the stay.
