Staying at Hyatt Regency Cape Town was an absolute delight. Located right in the heart of the city, it's incredibly convenient for exploring nearby attractions—whether you're walking or hopping on the metro, everything is just a short distance away. The rooms were spotless and well-maintained, with modern amenities that made the stay feel fresh and comfortable. I especially loved the pool and steam room—they were perfect for unwinding after a busy day of sightseeing. The staff went above and beyond with their warm, friendly service; every interaction felt genuine and welcoming. While it’s not a luxury resort, the value for money is outstanding. Clean, well-kept, and thoughtfully designed, this hotel strikes the perfect balance between comfort and convenience. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Cape Town, and I’ll be back again without hesitation.
We've visited Cape Town three times now, and without a doubt, Barry Hall Apartments has been the highlight of every trip. Rita’s warm welcome makes you feel right at home—her kindness truly sets the tone for an unforgettable stay. The team, led by Felicity, goes above and beyond: rooms are spotless, beds are neatly made, and dishes are washed and ready each day—perfect after a full day exploring. For a small extra fee, they even handle your laundry, which is incredibly convenient. Located in Sea Point, it's just a 2-minute walk to Regent Street, where you'll find plenty of great restaurants, shops, and grocery stores. It’s less than 10 minutes by car to the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront and downtown Cape Town, making everything easily accessible. Table Mountain and Lion’s Head rise majestically behind the neighborhood—just look out the bedroom window and you’ll see them daily. Walking down Regent Street offers stunning views of Lion’s Head, and if you keep going, you’ll reach Camps Bay, then follow the scenic Chapman’s Peak Drive all the way to Hout Bay. Don’t miss the beachfront promenade—7km of beautiful coastline where you can watch paragliders launch from Lion’s Head, float over the ocean, and land gracefully on the sand. We’re already planning our next visit in 2026, and Barry Hall will definitely be our home away from home. One of the most memorable and enjoyable stays we’ve had while traveling the world.

Clean rooms, great service, and a warm atmosphere make this a top choice for anyone visiting Cape Town. Would definitely come back and recommend it to friends.
My fiancé and I stayed for 7 nights at 21 Nettleton and were completely blown away by every aspect of our experience. Perched atop Clifton, the hotel offers some of the most breathtaking views in Cape Town—uninterrupted vistas of Clifton Beach, Camps Bay, and the Twelve Apostles that take your breath away. The butler service is truly outstanding: requests made via the in-room iPad are handled promptly, and having a direct WhatsApp contact made it easy to get help even when we were out exploring. Staff went above and beyond—they remembered our preferences, like swapping all regular cokes in the complimentary minibar for Coke Zero after noticing our repeated orders. Special shoutout to the concierge team, especially Nathan—he arranged everything from private massages and yoga sessions to a personalized hiking tour, all delivered with top-tier quality. And let’s not forget the chef’s signature homemade berry crumble—it was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had, rich, fresh, and perfectly balanced. This place isn’t just a stay—it’s an unforgettable experience.

From the moment you arrive, you're enveloped in a rare blend of refined luxury and heartfelt warmth. The service is consistently exceptional—attentive without being intrusive, professional yet genuinely friendly. Our room was breathtaking, with panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean that truly need to be seen to be believed.

The bathroom was spacious and beautifully designed, with thoughtfully chosen toiletries. Every detail was considered—from the well-stocked minibar to the guest pantry, which offers fresh-baked treats and snacks 24/7. Breakfast on the veranda is pure joy, setting the tone for a perfect day. Cocktail hour is magical: expertly crafted drinks paired with exquisite canapés, an experience worth remembering. I found a little nook just outside the study—a sunny spot by a gentle fountain with cozy outdoor seating—where I’d love to spend hours. The gym offers jaw-dropping views, and though I didn’t visit the spa this time, I’m already looking forward to returning for another unforgettable massage. The on-site art gallery is world-class, showcasing a beautifully curated collection of South African contemporary art. The wine gallery is both an architectural gem and a tribute to local winemaking—absolutely must-see. During our stay, my partner had to leave unexpectedly due to a family emergency. The staff’s compassion and support were deeply touching—especially Marilie, whose empathy and kindness meant more than words can express. That level of humanity is what sets Ellerman apart. Dinner was as impeccable as always, paired with outstanding South African wines. Though I don’t recall the waiter’s name, he was charming and attentive. In an industry where genuine hospitality is rare, Ellerman House stands as a shining example of how it should be done. I work in a five-star hotel myself, and honestly, every property should take inspiration from this one. Can’t wait to come back.
Staying at The Glen Boutique Hotel & Spa in Cape Town was one of those rare experiences that truly elevates a trip from good to unforgettable. I've traveled extensively, but few hotels have made such a lasting impression—this one absolutely did.

It’s the kind of meal that energizes your day. By the infinity pool, the team brings cocktails and light snacks—worth every penny for the ambiance alone. And if you’re eager to explore Cape Town’s famous vineyards or nearby attractions, they’ll happily tailor a tour to fit your schedule. The location in High Point is quiet yet convenient, just a 15-minute ride to V&A Waterfront for shopping and dining. Whether you want to stay in and enjoy a delicious dinner at the hotel or venture out, there’s something great around every corner. Honestly, the only downside? Having to leave after such a perfect stay. A huge thank you to Mark and the entire team—including Takunda, Maggie, Jayden, Jason, kitchen, housekeeping, maintenance, and F&B—for creating such a memorable experience. This is not just a hotel; it’s a destination within a destination.
Staying at One&Only Cape Town was an absolute dream. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable—warm, attentive, and genuinely personalized.

The design blends modern luxury with authentic South African touches—elegant, sophisticated, and deeply rooted in local culture.

Our stay at the Taj Cape Town was nothing short of exceptional.
