Hôtels 4 étoiles à Cape de Western, Afrique du Sud

I stayed here for one night as I was transiting Cape Town with a flight the following morning. The check-in experience was pretty quick and seamless, as my booking was pre-paid. I stayed here being fully aware of the carbon-neutral moto. The hotel appeared clean and tidy. The free shuttle from the airport was trouble-free. The directions to the pick-up was simple to follow. The pick-up was on time, and it was a very short ride to the hotel - literally a matter of minutes. The room I was allocated - 233 - was spacious and clean. However, I was surprised by the bizarre layout, especially with the way the shower and bedroom is almost open plan - only a screen separate the two areas. The toilet is separated by a door, though. Other than that, I had no major issues with the room. The bed was large and comfortable, my sleep was not disturbed and it was generally a positive short stay. The shower worked fine, it took a little getting use to the water-saving feature in the sink tap. The toilet flush may have a malfunction, because it would stay stuck when pressed, and required tapping for the button to return from a pressed state. I felt safe during my stay, and was reassured by the security procedures in place when booking an Uber - drivers are asked to scan their driving licence at the gate when entering the grounds. The drive to the V&A Waterfront was about 25-30 minutes. I had a late lunch at the hotel restaurant - Nuovo. The menu was okay, but not spectacular. I visited the restaurant when it was relatively quiet with diners. However, I found staff were not particularly attentive. It took a while before someone approached me and provided a menu. The vegan burger I order was nice, even if it looked a bit dry. It was the only chargeable thing I incurred, which I put on the room (250 ZAR to pay on check-out). The breakfast is a decent buffet of hot and cold food, plus live omelette bar. There’s also pancake making facilities, automatic coffee machines and more. On check-out, to my surprise, I was informed of bills totally 600 ZAR. I explained that I only had one meal at 250 ZAR, which the reception staff accepted. However, a few days later, I received emails claiming that I had an unpaid bill for 350 ZAR, which I had to explain again in my response (I did not receive further contact after that). I think this was a case of staff incorrectly reading a room number when processing, or a guest deliberately giving the wrong room number. I caught the shuttle back to the airport after checking out, again trouble-free. All-in-all, a very good airport hotel, and one I could easily recommend to others.

A Beautiful and Peaceful Stay at Alkantmooi Private Nature Reserve, Keursee We recently stayed at Alkantmooi Private Nature Reserve, Keursee in Plettenberg Bay and had a lovely experience overall. When I booked, I didn’t realize that it was a fully self-catering property. On the booking site, it looked more like a nature resort with restaurants on-site, so it came as a surprise when we arrived and learned that we needed to bring or buy our own food. We ended up driving about 8 km into town to pick up some groceries, which turned into a fun little outing in the end. Still, it might be helpful for management to make this setup clearer on the booking sire for guests, especially those from abroad who might not be familiar with South African Travel habits. We arrived around 5:30 p.m. and were warmly welcomed by the owner, who gave us the keys and explained everything. The unit itself was amazing, very clean, modern, and well maintained, with a stunning view over the sea and Plettenberg Bay in the distance. At night, the lights from town were beautiful, and the whole area was peaceful and quiet. The environment felt safe, and we really enjoyed the fresh air and the sense of being surrounded by nature. One small note: when we arrived, the lady at reception asked my partner (who is Chinese) in Afrikaans if she spoke English or Afrikaans. It wasn’t a big issue, but it might be something to be mindful of when welcoming international guests, as not everyone understands Afrikaans and its not easy to decipher specially for those who do not speak English as a first language A few other suggestions for management: upon entering the unit, there’s a printed rule sheet. While I completely understand and respect the need for house rules, the way they’re written felt a little strict and unwelcoming. For example, it mentioned sanitizing hands every time you enter and reporting neighbors if they break rules, and more. The tone could perhaps be softened to feel friendlier and more guest-oriented. The only other drawback was the Wi-Fi, which was extremely slow during our stay. I wasn’t able to use it for basic browsing and had to rely on my phone’s international data via hotspot when I was using my laptop. Despite these small issues, I would still recommend Alkantmooi to others, especially those who enjoy self-catering and want a quiet, upmarket place surrounded by nature. It’s a wonderful place to unwind, cook your own meals, and enjoy the incredible views over Plettenberg Bay.

J'ai récemment eu le plaisir de séjourner au DoubleTree by Hilton Cape Town - Upper Eastside et je dois dire que ce fut une expérience agréable du début à la fin. La première chose qui a attiré mon attention a été la vue imprenable qu'offre l'hôtel. Que vous profitiez d'un repas au restaurant ou que vous vous détendiez dans votre chambre, le paysage est tout simplement époustouflant. L'emplacement de l'hôtel offre une perspective unique sur Le Cap et j'ai été captivé par le paysage urbain. Le personnel du DoubleTree by Hilton Cape Town - Upper Eastside est vraiment exceptionnel. Dès que j'ai franchi la porte, j'ai été accueilli avec chaleur et professionnalisme. Le niveau de service tout au long de mon séjour a été constamment excellent. Les membres du personnel étaient non seulement efficaces, mais ils ont également fait tout leur possible pour s'assurer que tous les besoins étaient satisfaits. Leur gentillesse authentique a ajouté une touche personnelle à l'expérience globale. L'une des caractéristiques les plus remarquables pour moi était le parking sécurisé. Le fait de savoir que mon véhicule était garé en toute sécurité sur place m'a apporté un sentiment de confort supplémentaire pendant mon séjour. Il est évident que l'hôtel prend la sécurité au sérieux, contribuant au sentiment général de sécurité et de tranquillité d'esprit.

On peut dire sans se tromper que le petit-déjeuner à lui seul est une raison suffisante pour considérer cet hôtel pour votre séjour au Cap. Quant à la chambre, elle était tout simplement stellaire.

Pros Great location - a short drive to the waterfront and close to Table Mountain, Lions Head and the Botanical Garden where Uber will get you there quickly and for a good price. Staff were very good Breakfast was cooked very well and with good quality ingredients and a varied selection. It would be better if they had soft bread rather than the heavier one provided (althouh this could be a more European variety i havent come across before). The room was homely, as is the whole building (a bit of a British Grade 2 listed building kind of feel). Nice views over capetown in some rooms and a mountain view from the back. Room has heating and air con for all seasons. Cons As mentioned in a previous review, the room is quite dusty so if you are messing around with plugs behind the bed or tv, it's a challenge not to breathe in the dust. I think this could be a SA thing rather than the hotel itself but they only provide 1.5l of water which for a week is not enough, even for a solo traveller. You have to pay for any more. I have never come across this in 25 years of travel across 35 countries but again, i know there is a water issue in SA sometimes and I believe the tap water is drinkable (although I wouldn't attempt this as a tourist). Bathroom towels not replaced - just left to dry which doesn't work particularly well in winter. The photo of the hotel being near blue water is a little deceptive - obviously it is not near a beach and they don't suggest so but the body of water across the road is a water storage facility (currently empty) so don't expect tropical views. Having said that, if you get a city view room, the sunrise is right in front of you and a perfect time lapse opportunity as the scenery changes dramatically during the sunrise. Stunning experience. Overall, I would stay again and recommend the hotel which is in a quiet location.

Stayed twice with the hotel. I liked that everything I needed was within walking distance. Both rooms were spacious enough with kitchen and everything you might need during your stay. Despite some flaws the stay was good value. First room on the first floor was okay, clean and quiet BUT the door to the bathroom provides coverage from the eyes and NO coverage from the sounds or smells. Also no ventilation in there. We had windows open in the evening and smelled smoke from the outside. The second time around we got bigger room with beautiful view on the signal hill and neighbouring houses. The only drawback were the little tiny curly black hairs ON THE WALLS and the ceiling of the bathroom hahaha the helping stuff must had not seen it when cleaning. Mind you our hair isn’t black nor curly. Still it was a reasonably good stay.

This is not my first time visiting this place but this time I don’t want to lie I was very disappointed. I got charged 200 rand cause my pillow had oil(hair oil) I have braids on and additional to that they said there was blood on the sheets which was so weird cause I did not bleed Mind you this blood was only mentions after I told them that I will come back tomorrow cause paying 200 Rand for small smudges of oil on the pillow cash didn’t make sense then the receptionist went on to say we saw blood Then they said there was food sauces as well ..I mean I’m staying there and I was here for 2 nights ain’t no way am I going to leave the place spotless But the receptionist was just being rude which was unnecessary Like I said this wasn’t the first time coming here I always come and never have I ever gone through this even after staying for more days with friends I just think it’s drama to charge me for oil on my pillow cause I slept on it it’s bound to happen a

L'hôtel est agréable et propre, et tout le personnel est sympathique et très coopératif. La chambre est spacieuse et relaxante, mais malheureusement, il n'y a pas de bidet. L'hôtel est proche du front de mer, mais il est difficile de s'y rendre à pied car la plupart des routes sont fermées par une clôture en fer. Tout est agréable, mais c'est un peu cher, et il y a un service de navette gratuit en bus et en bateau.

Je voudrais remercier l’ensemble du personnel. Que ça soit les personnes à la réception de l’hôtel, les femmes de ménages, les cuisinières, les serveuses du restaurant et une mention spécial à madame Vava qui nous a toujours servis et préparé nos délicieux cafés chaque matin. La chambre était grande et spacieuse et le lit très confortable . L’hôtel était très bien situé et proche de toute les activités à faire à cape Town.

L'hôtel se trouve à 10 minutes à pied du centre-ville. L'hôtesse a aidé à réserver une visite aux baleines. Dormez froid, mais il y a des tapis chauds et des tapis électriques. La chambre dispose d'une micro-ondes, d'un pot de thé, d'un réfrigérateur. Le petit déjeuner est très délicieux, merci pour cela séparément. Nous avons oublié nos affaires dans l'hôtel et l'hôtel nous a immédiatement e-mailé. La ville est sûre et nous avons marqué la première fois dans 2 semaines de nuit.
