I would surely come back to the same hotel!
Pros:

The property is located in the best part of Capetown, near the V&A waterfront. It’s extremely safe and clean. The staff is amazing and attentive. I especially appreciate Mr. Sulaiman who has made our stay exceptional, by offering us a room upgrade.

Pros:

Staff

Cons:

It wasn’t clear that there were so many steps and ramps to get to the waterfront. It wasn’t clear that there are two buildings one is on the waterfront and one is across the street and up many steps.

Superb smiling staff
Pros:

Too often stays at respected hotels can be tarnished by the attitude and friendliness of staff. The Queen Victoria’s was the complete opposite. Superb, happy staff who made us feel special. Nothing was too much trouble. Our room was clean, large and spacious, the hotel is positioned directly behind the V&A Waterfront with very easy access. Warm and inviting we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Queen Victoria.

Great spa experience at Sanctuary Spa
Pros:

We had a 60mins aromatherapy massage after a day out exploring the city. The quality of the massage that we received from Patricia and Pheli were great and we felt so relaxed after the massage. The overall service experience was very positive, and we hope to be able to squeeze some time for another massage session before we leave Capetown.

Amazing Spa & hotel experience!
Pros:

We had a lovely full body 1 hour couples massage with Thelma & Patricia! Recommend 100%! With facials, used cupping and got 2 masks, one rubber & one gauze, it was an amazing experience. Now we are super relaxed and ready for the year ahead! Thanks you so much!

Rooms are very clean & the bed also very comfortable! The staff are very friendly & welcoming!
