A nice hotel. Don't be fooled by the name - it is not on the waterfront, but about a mile from it. However the hotel runs a free shuttle bus on the hour, and back on the half hour to the star of CapeTown, the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront Harbour and main shopping centre. The breakfast is really good - spoilt for choice. Plenty of staff to bring you coffee and clear plates and tables etc. The staff are all so friendly too. Our room on the 14th floor had a magnificent view of the harbour area. The room was cleaned every day and the tea/coffee/milk replenished every day. Hotel bar prices are incredibly low compared to the UK, so a nice surprise. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit to Cape Town, and the hotel was a cosy comfort from the unseasonably bad weather we experienced during the week.
