It was good overall. I booked a room with a double bed but got a room with 2 singles which was not great.

Best in Cape Town, so far.

A great hotel in lower downtown closish to the V&A waterfront. The quality was far better than any we had stayed at before in CT and at a great price. I highly recomment this property.

The hotel is spectacular and the staff are amazing. A huge well equipped gym, secure underground parking, amazing breakfast, nice roof top bar and pool, smart comfortable rooms. The only downside is the hotel is in town I’m not such a nice area. The area around the hotel doesn’t look nice. This isn’t a problem though as you would just drive or get an Uber where ever you want to go. You wouldn’t want to walk around outside the hotel, especially at night. I highly recommend the hotel. You get much better value staying there than some of the over priced hotels where you are mainly paying for the view. I will stay there again on future visits for sure.

The property is very new and the bed is very comfy. Location wise is fine and accessible with taxi around the city. The only minus is that the room was not properly cleaned and there are broke glasses on the carpet.

EXCELLENT STAY!!!

This was a great hotel experience. Everything from the front desk reception to the comfort of the bed was wonderful. I love the modern decor of the hotel. All of the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean. There was no outside noise from the city. I would definitely stay here again. Everything was perfect, but I have only two complaints: 1) the hotel does not provide wash cloths or face towels in the rooms. They only provided bath towels and hand towels. I had to call and request the face towels, but housekeeping brought them immediately. 2) The bath towels were full of lint, which left dust all over the bathroom and lint all over my body. See pictures of the dust in the bathroom.

Great Hotel with and Excellent Gym

Great experience at the Rockerfella. The room was spacious and well maintained. The restaurant and breakfast excellent and one of the best equipped gyms I’ve seen at a hotel. Very good value for money. Need to be a bit careful walking around the area though.
