We had a fantastic night at the Winchester. We had a great dinner on a last night in the Cape Town in the courtyard and chilled by the pool the next day before our flight back to London. I’d definitely stay again. The room was so cosy, cute and spotless. A lovely boutique feeling hotel in the heart of sea point

Great waterfront location, good hotel

Hotel staff were very friendly & extremely helpful. Made us feel very safe & even walked us to the ATM. Hotel was nice but not a luxury hotel by any means. Room service menu & breakfast very limited pillows were giants stuffed blocks with no give.

We booked at The Winchester last minute because of canceled flights and we were thrilled we did. The staff was friendly and the included breakfast was amazing. The location in Sea Point was great. Lots of walking and decent access to restaurants and shopping. We took in the sunset every night at the hotel bar, which had wonderful food and great cocktails. We will certainly consider staying here again.
