Rating: Excellent
This hotel was just brilliant for us. We travelled with our two kids and stayed in the Two Bedroom Suite. Us parents and the kids had seperate bedrooms and the suite has a large lounge area and is very spacious.
I highly recommend this hotel with their large suites at very reasonable rates to any family or group of friends staying in Cape Town.
Also, the beaches are not far at all, can even walk, and the V&A Waterfront and the city centre are really close by.
We hope to be back!

Rating: Very Good
Wau, the pool was nice. You can swim and the ocean is just below you. The restaurant has direct ocean views. Our room was very nice looking onto the sea.
Room Tip: when you choose your room type, be aware that the hotel consists of two buildings. The main building is located on the ocean direct and these rooms have direct sea views, here is also the restaurant and the bar. The other building is across the road and has the larger suites. But take in account the street noise which you can hear on the balcony there and the views are not as perfect to the ocean.
