Unhappy ending!
Pros:

Location was very good, the hotel is clean, but noisy. If you still sleeping until 8am you will hear the house keeping staff shutting the doors around!

Cons:

The noise and the hotel manager. We booked for 6 rooms, and we've asked for late checkout for the 6 rooms of the 3 different families due to the flight timing, they allowed only 2 rooms and until 1 only, so I asked for 30 minutes/room only until (12:30), they rejected! I believe they should have better decision making in considering families with young children and babies.

From start to finish we had 5 very disappointing days at this hotel. I would not recommend it to anyone.
Pros:

Location to waterfront was excellent

Cons:

From the 1st moment, the reception staff were incompetent, failed to take a credit card deposit so all our hotel purchases required on the spot payment . None of the hotel facilities were explained ie no shuttle info, no evening cocktail hour details, no welcome drink (saw others being offered one)
Our van driver in a very respectable vehicle arrived for us and was told he needed to park on the street.and for us (hotel guests) to walk up to the street some 200 metres away. He refused!
There was no information in rooms about the hotel or spa facilities
Breakfast was good but the restaurant food at other times was sub standard with a very limited uninteresting menu

Pros:

Die Lage ist unschlagbar. Man sitzt beim Frühstück quasi direkt am Wasser. Man kann zu Fuß zu Victoria Wharf laufen (ca. 10 Min) was in Kapstadt wirklich Luxus ist. Ich hatte eine Zimmer mit Balkon zum Meer raus und war wunschlos glücklich.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind pricy. Allerdings ist alles auch von großer Qualität.

Was awesome and will definately return.
Cons:

There was a bit of confusion with our check-in as I upgraded our room, but when we were checked in we were allocated the wrong room, but it was sorted out very quickly and satisfactory.
