Hotel is centrally located in the heart of Cape Town, very nice and close to many good restaurants. Great rooftop on the 14th floor. Food is very good and prices are reasonable. Only complaint is the service is a little slow and it’s maybe because they are under staff. Overall a good hotel to spend a couple of days.
