Travelling during COVID, this was our 4th Marriott property of our quick trip to SA. Front desk staff was amazing...super friendly, helpful and very competent. The breakfast was delicious and our wonderful waitress was so kind to us every morning. The rooms are a little funky, reminded me of a W hotel. Location was outside the tourist zone, but only about a 10 minute drive to the V & A. Pool area was perfect, pool temperature a little chilly. One huge plus is the hotel is a 2 minute drive to a drive-thru COVID testing spot which was perfect and needed for our international flight the next day. Anigen testing results came in about 90 minutes and they said PCR results would come within 24 hours.
Me and my brother had to share a room and the tiles were cracked, it was dirty, aircon remote didn't work. Next morning went for breakfast at their buffet area waited 1h30min for food which came cold.
I had the opportunity to stay at this location right before the pandemic took control world wide. The hotel in my opinion is in a quieter part of Cape Town (Century City) with a Shopping Mall just a short five minute walk behind the hotel on the Canal Walk. If you grow weary of hotel food, you can go to the mall which has multiple restaurants and fast food options or there is a bar with multiple food options within a 2 minute walk in front of the hotel. The Room I had was very comfortable as it was one of the suites (8th Floor I believe) with more than enough room to not feel cramped. The location is about a 15-20 minute drive from the Waterfront and about 30 minutes from Camps Bay depending on traffic which can be very hectic at times (just avoid the rush hours in the AM and PM and you will be fine). The personnel working at the hotel is very knowledgable and I want to give special Thanks to Joc (Travel Coordinator) and Mr. Abdul (Driver). If you want to go on a private tour of places in Cape Town and nearby and have contemporary comforts I would definitely recommend booking through the hotel. Also the time I went the weather was very ideal as it was late Summer. The one word I describe this whole trip is BEAUTIFUL.…
We normally stay here when coming to Cape Town. Good to say the standard has not changed. Checking in and out was like a breeze. Breakfast excellent and to be recommended! Parking a bit of a nuisance if you want to park your own car. Rooms fine, clean and Wifi quick. Service all round friendly, willing and helpful. Will come again while Liezel is still there and doing her job so professionally.
Attended a conference at this hotel Very friendly staff greeted with a glass of champagne and the helpful checking staff got me into my room so I could have a shower despite being too early for check in Bars and restaurant very good and staff helpful and friendly My room had a great view of Table mountain and as the name suggests big windows allow you to see across Cape Town Good place for a conference and the conference organisation and especially the food was very good Easy access by foot to the mall Overall a great hotel I shall certainly return on my next visit
