A beautiful and relaxing place to land for a few days while sightseeing in Cape Town.
Pros:

Excellent location - easy to walk into Camps Bay - but honestly the hotel grounds are so stunning it was hard to leave. Loved the swing bridge across the ravine, with views down to the ocean. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast on the porch was lovely.

Chilled Hotel a short walk from Camp’s Bay
Pros:

Great location, beautifully furnished rooms reached by a rope bridge from the property. Delicious breakfast and a short walk from the Camps Bay strip. Lovely grounds (though the unlit walk to the lower gate is difficult at night)

Cons:

Forest Spa massage is a waste of money. Massages were poor, in a badly heated tent. Hot tub not warm so we were moved to one that was then too hot. Wood fired hot tubs sounds great but does not work in practice - after 3 hours the one in our villa was also still not warm enough to use.

Cons:

Make sure you don't stay close to the road, its very noisy. Die views are great but overall value for money is not great. I like the open spaces of the property, but the room setup within the villas wasn't clear to me before we arrived. Staff very friendly, property very clean and tidy and location fantastic.

رايق مره
Pros:

اجمل فندق سكنته هدوء ومنطقة واقيه وامنه والنزلاء كذلك، الصور لاتوفيه حقه ، الإطلالات تاخذ العقل
جبال وشواطئ، اخذت غرفة الطبيعة رقم 12 ، اجمل اطلالة ممكن تشوفها يمينك سلسلة الجبال المحيطة بكامبس باي والغيوم تغطيها وامامك جبل رأس الاسد ويسارك شاطئ وغروب .

مبنى الاستقبال جميل وانتيك وخشبي يوجد به مدفأه ومكتبه وافطار لذيذ الفندق محيط بالطبيعة والاشجار وجسر خشبي جميل يربط بين مبنى الاستقبال واللوبي والافطار وبين الغرف الطاقم متعاون وودود ولطيف ، كذلك يوجد ملعب بادل دايم مشغول وسبا راقي . انصح فيه للكبلز والناس الهاديه، المنتجع جدا رايق .

Cons:

السلبية وهي متواجده باغلب الفنادق في جنوب افريقيا : لايوجد شطاف . ايضا قيمة غسيل الملابس مرتفعة جداً ، 20 قطعه تقريبا ب 650 ريال ، صدمني السعر
