Good location in centre of town

What I liked about this hotel was the location and that there was adequate parking outside. Whilst the hotel didn't have a restaurant and we had to go outside to a local place, it wasn't any distance and the food options were what I expected

Great View at the Marina

Nice place we had a balcony overlook at the marina Staff was excellent and very accommodating Bed was comfy bathroom was nice and big Not much to do around there, though nice vendors who are selling local crafts and not in a harassing way Location was a little disappointing, though not the fault to the hotel

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was very nice although the bed had no top sheet and sleeping directly under a duvet can be rather hot. It rained on two of the days and there is no covered walkway between the hotel and the hotel restaurant. The town has become centre stage for a baboon troop and one has to dodge baboons when walking about town, shopping, or going to restaurants.

Lovely little hotel right where you need to be, clean and spacious and I was upgraded to a horbour view room 👍 I was diving off Simon’s Town and had one night as it was convenient for me due to the location of the dive centre. Loads of shops, bars and restaurants around to fill your boots 😊
