Fantastic Boutique Hotel on the water of Camps Bay. Really nice rooms and the staff were great. Special mention to the staff member 'Asanda' who was absolutely lovely and did a fantastic job of making us feel welcome for our first time in Cape Town.

Lovely boutique hotel with views!
Pros:

Loved the view and location, we stayed in room 3 with full seaview and close access to the main strip but still not in the middle of the chaos. Room had good ac for hot and cold.

Cons:

The hotel is certainly more boutique feeling with only 10 rooms it feels like a converted villa. The towels don’t look/feel or smell like proper hotel towels, they had stains and smelled like old water.. only thing I can say which bothered me.

A lovely boutique style guest house we loved except for the shortages as described.
Pros:

A small guesthouse with a homely feel with a bar by a small but lovely swimming pool.The views over the beach were exceptional and the staff from the manager down could not do enough to make our stay comfortable.

Cons:

A disappointment that after a couple of days there was no butter for toast at breakfast,only margarine.Also on one day there was no marmalade only honey to spread on the toast.However a member of staff ran down to the store to buy us butter.Also there was never a spare toilet roll available and one day I had to ask Andrew at reception for another roll when urgently needed.Finally there appeared to be a shortage of regular tea and coffee sachets for the room,only decaf coffee and rooibos tea.Once again a member of staff found us the tea and coffee from a store cupboard and an unoccupied bedroom.Is this shortage of supplies a cost saving measure.

Acomodação deixou a desejar.
Pros:

Localização excelente, linda visão do mar, café da manhã muito bom.

Cons:

O quarto é grande e moderno, mas Em geral as instalações não favorecem a acomodação. Muitas escadas para acessar os quartos, a área de café e mesmo para chegar no nível da rua ( não indicaria para quem tem mobilidade reduzida). Na primeira noite tive problemas com falta de água quente no banheiro e que ninguém soube explicar/resolver, resultando em banho frio (considere-se que é inverno com temperatura 15graus).
Durante as 4 diárias, a acomodação teve problemas técnicos com WIFI ou seja, não tivemos internet…
Em resumo, o custo-benefício não valeu. Não retornaria e não indicaria a amigos.

Pros:

Localização.

Cons:

Quando chegamos estavam com problema no Wi-Fi. Mas depois foi solucionado.

As fotos no Booking dão uma sensação de que o hotel é gigante… mas na prática ele é justo.

If it was not for a beach, too pricey for what it offers
Pros:

Great location in Camps Bay and proximity to the beach

Cons:

Breakfast is only till 9:30 and they have no proper facility to make a buffet- you need to specify what you want to eat and they get it for you (god knows where from). We did not bother getting breakfast at there. Many better and tastier options 5 min walk. As it is a boutique hotel anybody going to a small pool or front of the hotel, passes by tables where people eat, get coffee, drink etc so logistics are not ideal.
Also, you need to ask for iron as it is not provided in the room -terrible state of the board and iron. Looking at how pricey rooms are, I was shocked what they gave me-check out photos (I was given a towel to cover that hole hahahaha)
