Fantastic find in downtown Cape Town

Our first visit to Cape Town and so glad we found this boutique hotel. Superb service, food (Gigi restaurant) and comfort. The quality and variety of breakfast was unbeatable! Excellent location for visiting Company's Garden, castle, Bo-Kaap, District 6 museum and short taxi ride to V&A Waterfront. All staff were friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and valued. Chloe, in particular, was really helpful and even gave us a snack-pack for our drive out to Cape Point. Not your typical "tourist" hotel .... definitly in the hub of the city but we felt very safe there. For anyone travelling by hire car, they offer valet parking (which we used for one night at no extra charge). Very good value for money in every aspect.

Cute and fun

What a discovery! The hotel is really cute. Whoever was their designer did a great job. The room was spacious and well decorated and the water pressure in the bathroom was incredible. The rooftop restaurant was very stylish and the breakfast included with the stay was really good. They even packed us a breakfast takeaway bag when we had to leave at 3:30am for the airport! The hotel is in a great central location with fun vendors and a market square just outside the door. Would definitely recommend.
