    The pool area was perfect for breakfast. Got neat and updated room with 3 beds as expected, truly enjoyed it.

    I had fab food for breakfast by the delightful music from the resident pianist. It was nicely furnished, generous sized and with 3 beds. The hotel was in a particularly good and unbeatable location just next door to all Cape Towns attractions, the V & A waterfront and the excellent aquarium at the Waterfront.

    Comfortable bed, well-appointed and well furnished room with climate control, a hair dryer, and coffee-making facilities.

    Not so helpful staff!

    The setting was quite perfect within easy reach of Bree Street.

    The bathroom was cold.

    It was in a good location with extremely helpful staff at the restaurant including the managers.

    The bed of mine was too low.

    The room I booked was clean but not maintained well and available with amazing views of Table Mountain, new aerobic equipment, all essentials. The breakfast was extensive, had a wide array of options.

    They served average breakfast, it can be much better.

    The rooms here are really nice and new. They have big comfy beds and you can control the temperature. Plus, there's coffee stuff to make a hot brew whenever you want ☕. Oh, and they have a cozy carpet too.

    Attentive staff, spotlessly clean and quiet room, great unexpected view. Staff went above and beyond, arranging transport and being available whenever needed. Gem of a room attendant. Recommended.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Cresta Grande Cape Town. It was a fantastic choice and provided a great base for exploring Cape Town. The staff at the lobby were incredibly helpful and had a "can do" attitude. We were very impressed with the delicious breakfast, which had a wide variety of tasty meals. The location of the hotel was perfect for our needs.

    The room is exlusive with nice furniture and colour combination. A window view to the high mountains on one side and a view towards the water bay on the other side gives you a exquisite taste of paradise. Sauna and Gym to keep fit at no cost, really,its a 1st class experience I must tell you. Please be there!
