Reviews and Ratings
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The service was excellent with friendly and helpful staff at reception, housekeeping, and the breakfast lounge. The location was very convenient, although it lacked privacy for residents and could have been more luxurious. The dining experience was a letdown, as I found myself in a small and uninviting room that served subpar food for the high price. The facilities were decent overall but could use some improvements.
The hotel rooms were advertised with a bath, despite signs stating it was not permitted, leading to disappointment. The decor did not match the advertised photos. On the positive side, the service for check-in and out was efficient and professional.
I had an amazing experience staying in a sea view room that was equipped for self-catering. The room had a better smell than room 512. However, it was disappointing that they did not inform us about the change to rooms without breakfast.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, although spacious and nice, had a noticeable cigarette smoke smell and felt a bit like a dorm with cold tiled floors. On the bright side, the service was friendly and helpful, despite some early morning noise. The location was stunning, right along a clean white sand beach, but there were some small drawbacks like the serving station size. The dining experience was disappointing with limited options and no tea or juice available. The facilities were decent overall.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms had a terrible smell, which led to me changing rooms twice, but the view overlooking the mountains on the other side of Gordon's Bay was breathtaking. The service, although loud and disruptive at times, was on par with what I expected. The location was perfect, offering easy access to everything I needed, although the noise from the kitchen was a downside. Dining was fair at best, with limited options and an unexpected extra cost for basic items like juice. Overall, a decent stay with some notable drawbacks.
The hotel felt more like a guest house rather than a standard hotel. While I didn't get the sea view I hoped for after flying from Gauteng, it served its purpose for a restful night, as we were mostly out during the day. The rooms were clean, but lacking heating for the winter season.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms offered beautiful views but lacked sufficient power points for convenience. The neat rooms with spectacular views were a highlight, but the room I received did not match my expectations.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a great mountain view, but there was a slight paint smell that bothered my sinuses. The service was welcoming and friendly, going out of their way to make me comfortable. The location is accessible and boasts an amazing view, even though it might lack some privacy for residents. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown when I realized breakfast was not included, and the room was not very inviting. The facilities were satisfactory with a few drawbacks.
The hotel seemed promising from the pictures but appeared outdated in reality. However, we managed to switch to a better room that suited our needs. The staff's handling of a challenging situation was a downside, but the accommodations were comfortable for our stay.
My stay at the hotel was exceptional. The rooms were fantastic, but I would have liked an ocean view as it was our anniversary. The service was really accommodating, always friendly, helpful, and professional. The location was excellent, right in the heart of everything. The dining experience had some hiccups, but overall, it was enjoyable.
