“Best bang for your buck”

Reviewed 23 May 2013 NEW

Given the price I was paying (quite low, for a 4 star hotel), I was expecting something that didn't actually live up to the pictures and other descriptions I read. Well, I was proved wrong. The room was very spacious, the bathrooms have both a separate shower and bath, complete with bubbles and bath crystals (I've stayed in hotels with... More

“Depends on what you are looking for”

Reviewed 15 May 2013

The decision whether to stay here is simple. If you want to literally sleep above the noisiest block of Africa's biggest party street this is the place to be. You are literally footsteps from the bars with the most consistent crowds on Long Street. No transportation required. However, the downside to this is if you are trying to get an... More

Dear Sir, Thank you for your feedback With regards to your observations on the noise, I would just like to point out that we pride ourselves on our location and in fact it is our main selling point.

“Great affordable hotel”

Reviewed 14 May 2013

A wonderful hotel with awesome staff and the greatest view ever!!! I was early in checking in and the hotel kept my luggage for me so that I did not have to take it all over Cape Town in my car. The room was spotless and extremely spacious. Long Street does get noisy in the evenings but it was great... More

“An affordable business class hotel in heart of the city”

Reviewed 13 May 2013

Stayed there this May. Clean and spacious rooms. Spacious bathrooms. Courteous and helpful staff. A four star hotel that is very affordable. My rooms (I stayed in two different rooms) and both had a good view of table mountain. Long street gets a bit noisy though in the nights. Breakfast spread is decent. At the prices offered on the internet,... More

I stayed in this hotel with my friend just a few days back, spent there quiet a long time, 10 days. We were totally disappointed. Room was not clean, we found fanta cans, dirty tissues just under the bed and hair in the bathroom. The staff is just looking bored, no enthusiasm, smiles, nothing! Only one guy, the one who... More

“This place has a tripadvisor recommendation!”

We booked online and it was advertised as having a balcony but when we arrived we found the following: 1. The room had not been cleaned as you could see dust everywhere and the shower floor had something growing on it. 2. The tv in the room had obviously fallen out of its cabinet and the corner was broken. 3.... More

“Maybe just not a party animal anymore?”

Reviewed 5 April 2013

A nice welcome and the room (deluxe queen) was a great size with an open space for the tub and a separate wet room area. There was an area for breakfast which I think doubles up as a restaurant in season. The hotel was categorised 4* but from my experience it seemed more of a 3* the quality of products... More

Dear Ma'am Thank you for your constructive feedback. I would just like to point out that we do not have double glazing on our windows, but thickened glazing, which does a good job together with the heavy black-out curtains to block out most of the street noise, however we are very open about the fact that we are situated in...

“NOISY”

Reviewed 15 February 2013

The location of this hotel is amazing. It is in the hub of all the bars and restaurants. Partying on Longstreet is world class but living in it can be frustrating. Every night of the week, the loud music and revelry goes on until 4:30am, making it extremely difficult to get any rest.
