Great location with excellent staff.
Pros:

Cresta Grande has great location, excellent breakfast and most helpful staff.

Cons:

The staff member we asked to get us a taxi'uber who just got one of his friends to take us to an airport hotel for more than double what we had paid to get to the hotel on arrival. Not good!

Solo Birthday Trip
Pros:

Hotel is centrally located, with many restaurants and attractions within easy reach. I visited on a solo trip to celebrate my 35th birthday 🎂, and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

From the moment I arrived , the reception staff were warm and welcoming. They went out of their way to ensure that I was comfortable and encouraged to reach out if I needed anything. I also appreciated the staff member assisted with my heavy luggage 🧳 😀 upon arrival which is a thoughtful service not all hotels provide.

The breakfast was delicious, with wide variety of options to choose from. My room offered an amazing view of Table mountain and the beautiful lights at night made the scenery even more spectacular.

Overall, I enjoyed everything about the hotel. The staff were friendly ,professional and always willing to help . Thank you for making my trip so memorable. 💝

One of the best hotels I've been in.
Pros:

Amazing staff, I'd recommend including buffet in your stay because the breakfast is amazing, regularly cleaned, no theft. I stayed a week and would have stayed more!

Cons:

No toilet brush in the toilet but is regularly cleaned everyday so not a major problem
