DoubleTree by Hilton Cape Town - Upper Eastside

Staff facilitated move to another room after initially assigned to one with a filthy window that was blocked by an elevator shaft. Also liked the free hotel shuttle to the V&A waterfront. During both of our stays at the Double Tree Upper Eastside.

A solid hotel choice that is functional and clean without offering over-the-top luxury. Pretty much what you would expect from a Doubletree by Hilton. Our deal included breakfast, which was a combination of buffet and table service. It was more than adequate - well presented and fresh. The rooms are quite spacious. The hotel is not located close to the waterfront. For those wanting around-the-corner convenience to Capetown's centre, this may be an issue. The hotel does offer a regular shuttle in daylight hours to deal with this. Although it's on the fringe of town, it still lies within the orbit of most day tour operators for pick-up and drop-off. There is a tour desk adjacent to the lobby to help you explore the city, the Cape and wine regions.

A good hotel with all facilities

Good experience.

A very strange hotel. The layout is bizarre! First, the hotel is located in a largely industrial neighborhood. You drive in to the drop off area, but you would never know this is a hotel. And then you walk inside and now you REALLY think you went into the wrong place, because you have to walk a couple of hundred feet through what looks like a mall, to get to the hotel desk. The restaurant is cleverly hidden in a back corner of the lobby, and the lobby is actually broken up into 3 large (wasted space) sections. Just when you think you have seen the strangest hotel on the planet, you get to your room and see there is no wall separating the bed area from the bath area. The bed has a clear, open view of the bathtub! Hope you don't need privacy when your taking a long, hot, bath! Otherwise, it was an enjoyable stay, the staff was super nice and the room was comfortable. The wifi keeps dropping out though for some reason.

A good hotel which is decently priced. We stayed for one night. The room was small but had everything we needed. Breakfast was good for the price. It is within a 10-15 minute uber ride from the Waterfront. Staff were very helpful. I would stay again.

This was the fourth time we have stayed at this hotel over the past eight years. Let's start with the one negative....it is not centrally located. However, driving/parking in and around Cape Town is easy in our experience; UBER works really well; and the hotel itself provided excellent shuttles to and from the V&A waterfront.

The hotel and underground car park always feels very safe.

The team are all lovely - special mention to Elna who warmly welcomed us to breakfast every day as if we were part of her family.

Rooms are clean and well appointed.

The breakfast is amazing!

We plan to stay here again on our next trip to SA....what better recommendation is that!

Rooms are so basic! Not decorative
