Horrible support for my situation - my wife was in a back car accident 3 days before we were to leave - and they did not show one ounce of sympathy and did not refund any of my money, They could have filled that room in an hour with the Mining Indaba going on.......but they chose to cancel my reservation, not refund my money and probably sold my room to someone else. It was pathetic empathy, sympathy and customer service. Never again - none of my company will ever go back there - and word of mouth is magical !!!!

Much to love about this hotel, especially bar and portering staff. Very disappointed with attitudes of reception staff Hotel has limited lift services. I was allocated a room as far away from reception as possible that was only accessible by stairs and I am a 70 year old man who uses a walking stick. A receptionist suggested to me that the blame lay with me, not them.

Disappointing

Whilst waiting for our rooms we used the pool area which is very small and not big enough for the amount of guests. Most concerning was seeing rodents in the pool area, they left food outside the rooms and I had to tell 4 members of staff before they removed it. ( it was not mine) The service round the pool was terrible, forgetting things and not serving everyone in the group at the same time. Would not recommend or stay again.

Amazing sunset views and staff

Amazing service - great location - dine at Azure at sunset (or cocktails at the Leopard Bar) for an awesome experience. Lulu the courtesy shuttle driver was so friendly and helpful - the shuttle stops every hour at camps bay and V&A Waterfront and makes sure you get picked up at the end of the night. The concierge is also good for organising a driver for excursions. Highly recommended and we will be back

Fantastic hotel with superb staff

We had a great stay at the 12 apostles, the staff were all fantastic, the room was beautiful & tastefully appointed. Only drawback is the pool area which is a little cramped. We would definitely return.

Unacceptable extra service charges

Very nice. The hotel staff and management ade our 12th anniversary extra special. The drawback is the R150 service charge fee and the R10 donation fee that was added to our bill. When paying top dollar per night for full 5* service, then I loath that an additional R160 is slipped onto my bill for an extra service charge. This is over and above every meals 12,5% involuntary service charge added to each bill, and then the bill makes provision for even another 10, 12, and 15% service charge. We intended to extent our stay, but then decided not to do so due to these small charges that is politely forced on patrons. Don't milk the cow dry the saying goes.

Luxury stay let down by poor attention to detail

I had contacted the hotel more than a month before to request a complimentary upgrade if available. I was told at the time that if they have availability on the day they will upgrade us. On arrival I asked again. We were told that a room is available, however it will cost R6000 (approximately €300) for the night. I declined. The room we were given was beautiful. The hotel did put out a bottle of alcohol-free bubbly, a slice of cake, some cookies and a balloon as we were celebrating an anniversary. We really appreciated this gesture. However, there was dirty crockery and cutlery in the room (clearly used and not washed). Unacceptable. The bathroom door had an issue where the door kept getting stuck in the frame. My wife used the bathroom and the door got jammed, she was locked in for a while. I called management who sent a maintenance person, who then wanted to sand and grind the door with us there, creating noise and dust. I refused and requested management come to speak to me. We were subsequently moved to another room. This second room, whilst having a sea view, was certainly not as nice as the first room. Things did work there. Breakfast was an anti-climax. I ordered the salmon Benedict. It was a single poached egg on half an English muffin. Everywhere else in the world it would be 2. Croissants were not crispy and pastries were disappointing. Overall, I expected much better from a place of this calibre. I was rather perplexed by the lack of attention to detail here.

We had a sea facing room and the views were stunning on the sunny day we were most fortunate to have. Dinner and breakfast both were very disappointing. Chicken curry wasn't up to Woolworths standards, breakfast buffet was lovely, but hot breakfast order left a lot to be desired. Chef needs to get out and about and visit other places to reacquaint themselves with great food and higher standards.
