The gem of Camps Bay!
Pros:

Beautiful stay at the Marly. The staff were beyond accommodating, the room was beautifully clean, and the breakfast was delicious.

The location is perfect - right in the heart of Camps Bay (only a short uber from the centre of Cape Town, which are readily available, and a stone’s throw from Table Mountain!). We absolutely loved watching the sunset every night and the selection of bars and restaurants is amazing!

The spa is also exceptional - Wendy gave the best massage I have ever had!

Will be recommending to all our friends and family.

Cons:

Nothing - we didn’t want to leave!!

Best views of Table Mountain in Cape Town!
Pros:

Beautiful property with a great selection of restaurants/bars and in a great location. The rooms were presented to a high level and whilst everyone usually opts for a sea view room trust me when I say book a Mountain View room: you won’t get a better view of Table Mountain!!
The service from everyone (special mention to Mr Magnificent!) was exceptional: everyone was friendly, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again or to recommend it! The team made our stay extra special as it was our anniversary and really looked after us: thank you!

Amazing stay – the staff truly makes the difference!
Pros:

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Cape Town. The hotel itself is fantastic — modern, comfortable, with beautiful rooms and an unbeatable location right in front of the beach. Everything was perfect.

What really made our stay special, though, was the incredible staff. I truly believe that the people make all the difference, and the team here went above and beyond to make our stay perfect.

A special thank you to the Housekeeping team, who kept our room spotless throughout our stay. They were always so kind, respectful, professional, and friendly.

The Front Desk team was equally amazing — always attentive, welcoming, and genuinely concerned about making sure we had everything we needed and were enjoying our stay.

The combination of a great hotel, perfect location, beautiful rooms, and such an outstanding team made this a truly memorable experience. We felt very well taken care of from beginning to end.

Thank you to the entire team for making our stay in Cape Town so special. We would definitely stay here again!

Breathtaking experience
Pros:

Perched between timeless mountains and the endless ocean, this hotel possessed a rare kind of magic. Each morning began with the sun painting the sea in shimmering gold, while the mountains stood in silent majesty, as though guarding a secret known only to those willing to pause and truly see..I felt magic.

Perfect honeymoon stay!
Pros:

Recently stayed to celebrate our honeymoon and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Special shout out to Mac who checked us in. The staff are genuinely kind and nothing is too much for them. We were kindly upgraded to a sea facing room. The room was huge, so clean and beautiful views of camps bay for sunset. The breakfast was delicious as was the room service. We didn’t want to leave!!

Cons:

Nothing.
