Pros:

Все идеально! Персонал ко всем просьбам относился с пониманием и заботой! Чистые номера! Шикарный вид с территории бассейна! Не пугайтесь, когда пишут, что вход через торговый цент. На такси через паковку заехали ко входу отеля. Тут же вышли нас встречать! Подготовили номер по-раньше. Торговый центр очень милый, там немного магазинов, но можно купить разные мелочи. При отеле 5 ресторанов, везде вкусно!

Absolute perfection x
Pros:

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so at home with the friendly staff and welcome drinks. Our room (2) was just lovely with a large balcony and sunloungers overlooking the ocean. The Marley is centrally located in Camps Bay with lots of restaurants just steps away, and the roof top bar is a must for sunset drinks.
I didnt think the level of service could've improved but when my husband became rather poorly and had to stay in hospital for few days the staff went out of their way to make sure I was really well looked after and if the staff are reading this, thank you from the bottom of my heart for looking after me so well, we will definitely be back.

Cons:

Nothing.

Pros:

We liked the pool area, except for the ongoing piped music which ruined it, we would prefer to listen to the natural sounds of the sea, there's enough noise in the area

Cons:

Service at breakfast was very slow.
the hotel overall was overly expensive

Great location but in need of a refresh
Pros:

The Marly has arguably the best location in Camps Bay and offers stunning mountain and sea views. The staff are friendly, the dining options are extensive and the food is generally high quality . The bedrooms are bright and comfortable. However, the service is hit and miss ranging from excellent to chaotic and the hotel is generally in need of.a refresh as it is starting to look rather tired.

A wonderful stay in an unforgettable place
Pros:

A discreet hotel in a magical location with restaurants, bars, and shops (spa, hairdresser, food, clothing, etc.) within easy reach makes for a heavenly vacation.

Great place in Camps Bay
Pros:

We stayed at The Marly for three nights and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and helpful, with truly outstanding service throughout our stay. Our room had a gorgeous sea view, and the location is perfect, right in the heart of Camps Bay and close to all the action. There’s also a great choice of restaurants on site and nearby. We would absolutely stay here again.
