Dolphin Beach Hotel

It is truly a magical hotel. So spacious and on the beach.

hotel needs an upgrade it is "tired".
Limited room service menu especially no toasted sandwiches etc / limited choice for Vegetarians too

Amazing room view on table mountain
Pristine beach
Great breakfast
Staff super friendly and helpful

Booked weekend stay with my wife. The room is dated with stained smelly burnt holes carpetmust be as old as the hotel The decor is ancient, the furniture looks like 80's second hand bought. The bathroom id not disabled friendly, shower head spouts water in different direction but on the bather, had lukewarm water in the shower for 2 days. Outside stairs to rooms are not disable friendly, rails on one side only hotel needs a twentieth century overall, has the potential to become one of the best resorts in Cape Town.

I loved how big the rooms were & how friendly and accommodating the staff was!

The hotel is location convenient with a great view of the mountain and the ocean.

This hotel has a beautiful view of table mountain and is set up so everybody can see it, and it is right on the beach.it is a 20 min drive to the waterfront in cape town for shopping and eating, The hotel restaurant blow fish is really good our waitress was very good..
On the downside there were daily power cuts during our visit, due to world wide circumstances,which you can't blame the hotel for, but this property has massive potential for both its own solar panels or a wind turbine combined with electricty storage, this would make this hotel, immune to power cuts, more eco friendly and more profitable, ... surely a no brainer

Check in was business like and prompt, not very friendly at all. Rooms need a lot of maintenance, carpets fraying, shower drain was blocked. Rooms are spacious though.
Not the experience I expected based on images advertised.

Excellent

Fast service, last minute booking

My stay was quiet and nice, I did enjoyed my stay.

Everything was good, except the WiFi connection. terrible network connection

We had a wonderful stay at Dolphin Beach Hotel over Christmas and New Year. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating.
The Blow Fish Restaurant which is on the hotel complex is great with fresh fish every day. the bar staff were also excellent and introduced us to several new cocktails.
The Beach Cabana accommodation was spacious and provided direct access to the sand dunes and beach
The hotel gardens were immaculately kept
It would be useful to hire a vehicle as the closest other shops and restaurants are approximately 1km away. The larger shopping center is also approximatley 1km away but it is difficult to access by foot due to a busy dual carriageway.
Due to the season it was difficult to find taxis for short distances although Uber was available
The hotel location is excellent for Kite Surfing, access to the wine region and central Cape Town was a 30-60 minute drive

The property is perfectly located. Could not be better. Disappointed with check-in although I must add that when I expressed my dissatisfaction, the manager immediate put matters right. I had booked a room based on the pictures on Expedia. It was called a sea view apartment and the pictures clearly show a bedroom and a separate living room, but when we checked-in there was no separate living room, but just the bedroom. I was then given a cabana with a separate living room and an extra bedroom. The pictures on Expedia perfectly matched the cabana, right down to the view and the furniture. The sea view apartment should be relabeled sea view room.

Friendly staff, great location right on the beach with the classic view of Table Mountain. The hotel also has a very good seafood restaurant. Swimming pool is a bit small. More a splash pool really, but, if you can face the cold water, swimming in the sea is always an option. Apartments have a small kitchen, and there are shops nearby, so you can always prepare your own food if you want.

All top if you don't have to be too close to the city, and the view at the Table Mountain is spectacular.

Staff very friendly and polite close to restaurant and beach excellent customer services food good 👍🍷.

Exceptionally friendly staff always willing to lend a hand and gave us information when asked about tourist attractions. Hotel was neat and tidy not to mention spacious. The hotel management upgraded our room for free. Outside were beautiful garden and the beach just a walking distance. Breakfast was very tasty and always served warm.
Thanks so much for your warm welcome. 💵 Well spent.

I was pleasantly surprised by the spacious en-suite bedroom with a separate lounge and ktchenette for self-catering. Another plus was the large balcony with views over the wetland area. I could have stayed longer!
