We arrived in Cape Town, and were first amazed at the natural beauty of the city and surrounds, and then by our hotel! The staff at the Taj were excellent, they were open, friendly and honest. The room itself was excellent, the view from our bathroom of Table Mountain was better than most other hotels! The Taj's location in the... More

The Taj is situated in the heart of the Cape Town City Bowl and is a must stay for all travelers wanting something special from a hotel. I found the hotel staff to be most pleasant and helpful during my stay and special mention must be made of the friendly concierge whom arranged our complementary chaffeur driven Jaguar to Camps...

I had the priviledge of staying at The Taj, Cape Town on Monday 30th January 2012. From the moment we arrived, to the moment we left, we were treated like royalty by all staff we came in contact with. Nothing was too much, and the genuine attitude of the staff to offer assistance, was exemplary! Breakfast the next morning was... More

Spent four nights at this wonderful property late December 2011. The club rooms were large and comfortable - the bathroom was top notch with Molton Brown products. All staff members were very accommodating and helpful. The evening drinks and snacks (club floor) were nice. Had dinner at Bombay Brasserie, and the food was excellent. Had the breakfast buffet daily (included... More

I spent one night here in January in a corner suite. The hotel is still very new only a couple of years old and is still in magnificent condition and no expense has been spared with the renovation of the old buildings. Rooms come in both modern or heritage style, I preferred the modern which is a little more contemporary.... More

Stayed here with my new husband on our honeymoon for 3 nights. Our room was beautifully furnished and immaculately clean. The staff were charming and the breakfast was one of the best i've had. We very much felt 'looked after' whilst we were there- staff were very keen to help. The bed was enormous, as was the bath and shower-... More

I was excited to be staying here after all the rave reviews but my experience was far short of amazing. I couldnt get housekeeping to do a turndown service, no complimentary water left in my room, no welcome drink. Room was pretty good but for nearly double any other hotel in Capetown service seemed very poor. The Indian restaurant was... More

This hotel is a true 5 star hotel. The service was exceptional from all members of staff and we stayed for four nights and were remembered by name by reservation/concierge staff. We would not fault any part of this hotel - it is truly beautiful. Located right on the central mall in Cape Town, with the breakfast restaurant leading directly... More

The only thing I regret about my trip to capetown is not staying at the TAJ longer. It is an amazing hotel, they treated us like we were their highest spending customers which was definitely not the case. The picked us up from the airport and showed us nothing but hospitality till we left. The rooms are gorge and the... More
