I'm curious why Chinese tourists don't comment on Ctrip. I stayed for four nights and would like to share with you my objective experience of staying. The room is very small. Although the family room has been upgraded, there are two small beds in each of the two separate small rooms, which basically takes up the room space. The facilities are a bit old. Although the faucet and hardware are Hansgrohe, and the toilet is also a famous brand, they are still a bit old and cannot be compared with domestic hotels of the same price. After talking about the bad points, let’s talk about the highlights: the breakfast is very good, with a variety of varieties, and the service is in place. The restaurant is on the other side of the hotel, you need to pass through the Business School of the University of Cape Town, and you can see the Victoria Pier. The location is also very convenient: it is convenient for eating, shopping, and sightseeing. It feels like it is on the edge of the business district, suitable for walking and shopping.

This is a very solid hotel in a great area for walking on the ocean at the promenade. It’s in an area called Seapoint and there’s lots of restaurants as well. The rooms are large with very comfortable beds, King,. We have a balcony with a view of the ocean, my favorite part is the superb breakfast and excellent coffee. They serve in the lobby. You really cannot go wrong here extremely happy. It was part of a tour by Gate1. finally, I’m always surprised when reviewers talk about the staff however, everyone at this hotel was so kind and friendly. There’s also an attached steakhouse which we would recommend for snacks. It’s kind of like the US diner experience.

My entire stay was stellar! The check in process couldn't be easier. The rooms are exactly as shown on the website, were immaculate and well-functioning. Security was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was amazing. We ate there almost every night of our stay! By choice!!! Every member of staff made us feel welcomed and at home. The hotel is perfectly located for walking to the Waterfront, Bo Kaap, District 6, the palace, etc.--and I am not a person who enjoys walking! While I wouldn't recommend walking the area at night (nor would I for any other major city in the world), as two female tourists, we felt perfectly safe walking throughout the CBD during the day.

This is my fourth visit to this beautiful hotel. Pam, David and Faraaz were most welcoming and efficient at the front desk. The rooms are spacious, clean and nicely appointed. The mattress was perfect...really good condition. Breakfast is full and served buffet style in the old Cape Dutch Manor House. There is a good array of cold and hot. Amanda at the egg and pancake station is warm and friendly. Funiwe, Ashley, Royston and Gail are all super attentive to your breakfast needs. You will need a car (free parking on site) or you need to uber as it is not near public transport...but is very well located near all the major onramps and so getting anywhere is quick and easy if you're driving. I love this place. It is my go to whenever I am in Cape Town

I had a January 2024 conference at Stellenbosch Business School, and our Association gave a great rate at this hotel (only 1230 ZAR, including all taxes). At the current USD exchange rate, that was only $65. Because I didn't want to spend a lot of time commuting back and forth for those conference days, and because our conference also paid for the shuttle bus between the conference hotels and the conference venue, I decided to book this hotel for two nights. There are only a handful of written/detailed reviews in the past 4 years here on TA, and so I want to add mine here. (A note to Bonvoy members: Do note that you only get one ENC per 2 nights stayed. If in doubt, feel free to google ”Protea and ENC”...) Here are the pros: (1) The price is indeed cheap. (2) The staff is very kind. (3) The breakfast is good enough, with a few different kinds of sausages, a few different kinds of cereal, a few different kinds of bread/pastry, a few different kinds of fruit; and a couple different kinds of juice. (Bonvoy members: Platinum and above gets you free breakfast buffet.) (4) The on-site restaurant's 'a la carte' is OK enough if you're hungry, but I wouldn't have two dinners in a row there. The menu is not extensive, and also my pasta was a bit overcooked. (5) The room does have a small safe. Here are the cons: (1) Half of the hotel's rooms are just 15m from the highway. On a Sunday night, you're gonna hear a lot of road noise. It was the kind of noise that my earplugs couldn't block very well. If you scroll through the pictures here on TA, you'll see some pictures of that traffic. Those pictures are basically taken *from the room's window*. The cars are really that close! So if you are a light sleeper, and you care about sleep, this hotel is basically not for you. (2) Exactly half of the rooms are on the ground floor... meaning that just about any hoodlum could readily break the glass window of your room and enter if they wanted to. If that thought gives you anxiety, then I'd think twice before booking this hotel. (3) In the evening and late night (after ~9pm), I couldn't reach any front desk staff via the room's phone. (4) In the pictures, it looks like the room is carpeted. I don't think most of the room's are carpeted; my room #145 had a wood laminate floor, and it was pretty filthy. I mean, housekeeping doesn't appear to mop the floors very well, if at all. There are no slippers provided, so on Night #2, I put one of the bathroom towels on the floor and waddled/shimmied around on top of the towel to keep my feet clean. (5) I have Titanium Marriott status, and on Tuesday morning, they wouldn't grant me any kind of late check-out. I had to check out by 11am. They told me that there would be a 300 ZAR penalty per hour, if I checked out after that. (6) There's really nothing within walking distance; go ahead and take a look at the neighborhood in Google Maps, there's nothing to do or see if you have no car. (7) There are

What a great hotel. Amazing friendly welcome on arrival day and during the stay from the lady at reception. The rooms are super spacious. Everything you need for a good night rest and relaxing time. Breakfast is available with a big selection of eggs and pastries. Very relaxing atmosphere. Inside and outside seating. Was a nice relaxing stay. Will highly recommend the hotel,staff, and location
