    The hotel served as a fantastic base for exploring Cape Town, being just a short walk away from Bree Street, which is filled with cool shops and eateries. The V&A Waterfront, where I caught stunning views of the harbour and Table Mountain from the nearby Cape Wheel.

    It was just an ideal choice for a flash visit in Cape Town with best value for money ratio. The pool was nice and warm during our stay, which was a pleasant surprise. Make sure to double-check your room details upon arrival.
