Safe stay in centre of Cape Town
Pros:

Our stay at this hotel was a truly unique experience. The location is perfect – right in the very center of the city, which made it easy to explore everything nearby.

The rooms are set in special trailers on the rooftop, which is such an interesting and original concept. It made our stay even more memorable.

The breakfasts were very good, with a nice selection to start the day. The staff were extremely kind and attentive, always taking great care of our comfort and safety.

We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel!

Awesome city escape in the heart of CBD
Pros:

Lovely breakfast, cool location in the hub of CBD. I was worried it'd be noisy being in the middle of town but it was quiet and really comfy.
