Hippo Boutique Hotel

I love staying at the Hippo Boutique Hotel, it is always the simplest, easiest and most graciously hospitable place I get to visit. In Cape Town, the area has really come a long way and is really amazing.

Goede locatie en leuk concept voor het ontbijt. We kregen vouchers die bij 3 verschillende zaakjes ingeleverd kunnen worden. Op advies van de receptioniste gingen we naar Cafe Sofi, en dat was een geweldige gelegenheid! Heerlijk ontbijt. Jammer genoeg hebben we de 2e dag geen ontbijt kunnen nemen omdat we heel vroeg moesten vliegen.

Well-located in a pleasant area filled with little cafes, eateries and bars, small hotel in Cape Town with a variety of room types and a small pool - The bijou pool was perfect, we used it on three days and no one else was there on each occasion!
We loved our executive apartment, great to have the extra space although some minor niggles - The shower head needs a proper clean / descale as currently it sprays all everywhere, the a/c insufficient for the size of space, an issue with the tv screen
Tea & coffee plus bottled water top up daily was excellent and we loved the opportunity to visit each of the three local cafe breakfast options - such a great idea, highly recommend Sofi
Reception staff however were not as attentive or helpful as we’d have liked, especially around requesting late check out, pool towels, and room keys not working / leaving guests outside the front door

We stayed at the Hippo for 3 nights. The check in and service by the reception staff was top notch. All staff we dealt with were excellent, friendly and informative. The hotel room we stayed in had a balcony on the front over a lively street that can get noisy but it never bothered us at all. The room we had was very modern, with a small kitchenette and very spacious. Breakfast was at various cafes/restaurants around and included in the deal. We found the breakfast was very good and varied. The hotel is in a great position for shops, bars and restaurants. Which are varied and very good. Its about one and a half miles, walkable, to the V & A waterfront. The area around the hotel was very cosmopolitan and we felt safe, but bear in mind, this is South Africa and just be streetwise and do not wander off the main areas. I would recommend this hotel and would return in the future, if we go back to Cape Town.

Location , staff ,everything

This wonderful boutique hotel just of Kloof street was a pleasant stay, the room was well appointed with great food places in short walking distances… will definitely be back

جميل وموقع مناسب

Great Hotel in an amazingly beautiful and safe location with many nice local cafes around. The staff was very friendly, our room was comfy and had a cool view. Breakfast voucher system is so great, enjoyed a lot Egghead option there. Would love to come back again.

The room was spacious and had a microwave and warm rails for the towel. Lots of TV and streaming options

Absolutely amazing accommodation in the city centre. You can choose your breakfast from one of several nearby places. The staff is friendly and incredibly helpful. They allowed us to check in early and get into the room. We enjoyed our stay. The bed is extremely comfortable.

The hotel is in a brilliant location, very close to trendy bars and restaurants. The fact you receive vouchers for three local restaurants to use for breakfast is brilliant. We received a room upgrade which we were very grateful for

A safe accommodation with well-equipped rooms. The staff are very courteous and helpful, for example with booking excursions or having your car washed in the hotel parking area. The choice of breakfast locations (three options) is excellent, and for a longer stay it offers great culinary variety. The location is central, and all major sights are easily accessible.
