Excellent stay! Our room was amazing with a spectacular view of Table Mountain. The hotel amenities were plentiful and the staff was top tier. Room service was excellent. Laundry services were excellent as well. When we were unable to book a massage at the spa due to unavailability, the hotel arranged a mobile spa to come directly to our room instead. We had a reservation at Fyn restaurant, and the manager had security walk my husband and I over to ensure our safety at night. When I forgot something in the room after checkout, the concierge organized a courier from the hotel to deliver it to our next hotel in Constantia. Everything was simply five stars, and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again when visiting Cape Town.
