la struttura in generale, lo staff, la pulizia e la colazione erano di ottimo livello.
menu del ristorante un pochino scarno per una struttura di questo tipo e piatti che non sempre corrispondono a quelli original

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und das Zimmer super :-)
Der Weg zur Waterfront ist zu Fuß nicht so toll und bei Dunkelheit nicht machbar, da potentiell Gefährlich
Limpieza, amabilidad del personal. Desayuno excepcional
propre personnel au top
petit dej pas extraordinaire pour un marriott
Alle medewerkers zijn bijzonder vriendelijk. Gezellige lobby.
Great service good food
We got an upgrade on arrival and the room was very spacious and clean. Team were friendly.
The room was a little cold (need some soft furnishings and a rug would have made it more comfortable. The location/ entry was strange as we were right by a train track and no idea how you cross that to get to the actual waterfront...
The welcoming staff at reception Miso, Mershannon, Genevive, Nkaviso and the breakfast team including Mande and Tiger were always smiley and so helpful. They attended to us whenever needed, even the porters including the always energetic young guy (can't remember his name - still on probation), the so knowledgeable Abraham (driver to and from V&A) services were second to none. You are all assets to the hotel and keep the level up.
Possibly the journey to the V&A is not that easy but the shuttle services do help. Also some entertainment in the evening would have been a plus.
La colazione, le stanze, la gentilezza del personale
Il caffè 😅 i letti matrimoniali alla francese quindi un po’ stretti
The place very nice
Quarto amplo e confortável. Colchão e lençóis de boa qualidade. Café da manhã excelente. Internet muito boa!!! Tudo ótimo!

スタッフが親切。設備もきれいで朝食も美味しい。ウォーターフロントまで歩ける立地とシャトルバスもあり便利だった。
We had a room with 2 double rooms that we booked for a family of 4 for a 2 night stay in Cape Town. Very comfortable beds, modern room with nice bathroom. A bit of a squeeze for 4 people but was fine for a short stay. The hotel location is good relatively near the waterfront - they offer a shuttle / canal boat that drops off at 2 different points on the waterfront. We were on b&b and the breakfast is very good / lots of choice in the buffet plus you can order some fresh cooked items from the à la carte menu. There is a small gym there as well and a pool (not heated). There is paid parking at 100 rand per night. Service is good, much like everywhere we went to in the western cape. Overall a pretty comfortable place to stay in cape town.

O staff é o ponto alto desse hotel combinado com excelente infraestrutura. Nao e tão perto a pé do waterfront mas isso nao foi problema porque o transfer funciona muito bem. O café da manhã é maravilhoso!!!
Nada. Tudo ótimo.
Our stay at the hotel was truly wonderful and memorable. From the moment we arrived, the entire team, from the door staff/attendants to the concierge and every staff member we interacted with, welcomed us with genuine warmth, kindness, and exceptional professionalism. The level of service we experienced was outstanding. Every person went above and beyond to ensure that we felt comfortable, valued, and well taken care of. The restaurant team provided exceptional service, always attentive to our needs, checking in on us regularly, and greeting us with such warmth and enthusiasm every morning. My husband, my daughter, and I stayed for seven nights, and throughout our entire stay we were treated with such care, respect, and hospitality. We have travelled to many hotels, but we have never experienced this level of genuine service and personal attention. The staff truly made us feel special and created an experience that we will always remember. A special thank you to Amaarah, Tiger, Nande, Jonathan, and the wonderful door staff, including Khanya, who all played a part in making our stay exceptional. I wish we could remember and mention every single person by name, because each one contributed to making our experience so beautiful. Thank you to the entire team for your dedication, kindness, and commitment to excellence. May God bless you all abundantly for the amazing work you do. Your hospitality is a true reflection of the heart and soul of this hotel.
We booked room 509 and 511, we had to always call to have the room temperature adjusted as it was cold..I'm sure there is a way to get guests to adjust the temperature as desired.
Conforto
Gostamos de tudo
Breakfast was the same and they don’t how to make African tea
The monotony of the breakfast
La struttura è bellissima e dotata di ogni comfort. Il personale è premuroso e molto disponibile.
La posizione purtroppo penalizza la struttura, benché offra un servizio di navetta per il Waterfront.
早餐豐盛,有許多麵包熱食與新鮮水果。
Cleanliness of the rooms was excellent
Shower took to long for the water to get hot and pressure was low.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. It offers excellent value for money, with modern and comfortable rooms, a very clean environment, and friendly, professional staff. The breakfast was varied and of good quality, and the overall service was efficient throughout our stay. The location is also convenient, making it a great option whether you’re staying for business or as a stop before or after a flight. Overall, it exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely stay here again.
The staff was great, rooms were clean and the breakfast included was excellent. The location is great as well.
I did feel the rooms lacked character and felt a bit stale. They weren't very homey.
Good stay , was comfortable
Wished there was bidet !
do atendimento e do café da manhã.
Da localização, o local é de dificil acesso, por ruas estreitas.
Staff very friendly
Great location and atmosphere. Helpful staff and large rooms. Only thing that anoid me a bit was that we could hear the noisy guest in the room next to ours. Did not impact on our experience, so no problem. Ah, also, best breakfast we had in south africa
Its well-furnished rooms, cleanliness, location and extremely wonderful staff.
Nothing.
Wonderful location, beautiful hotel, gracious staff and welcoming atmosphere at this Marriott hotel. The rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable and ours looked out over Table Mountain while others faced the water. Their dining room has a good wine list and menu, although African game was not on it when we were there. The hotel runs a shuttle to the V&A Waterfront's numerous diversions. From check-in to check-out five days later we were greeted with smiles by everyone who worked there. We give them 5+ stars and highly recommend them
Un personnel d’une amabilité et d’un professionnalisme remarquable, toujours avec le sourire Établissement digne de son classement
La vue sur le port aux étages inférieurs n’est pas terrible mais c’est l’emplacement qui veut cela
Limpeza e cafe da manha
Tudo otimo
Atendimento excelente, quarto confortável, café da manhã maravilhoso, transfer para waterfront deixando na frente do Zeitz Museum super conveniente
Nenhuma queixa
everything was excellent , I liked the breakfast selection and curry and roti dinner meal
the pool area
Lovely modern property. Beautiful huge rooms. Friendly staff. Free shuttle very hour to the Waterfront
I felt R100 per day for parking to be a little high, especially as the parking was far from fully utilized. There are shuttles to the waterfront which was very useful but the hotel is situated directly opposite the cruise terminal and I did not find the location to be entirely convenient for our purposes but that’s not to say it is not convenient for others.
Staff very good, public areas good.
I haven't seen towels that thin since staying in country inns in Guatemala!
Nice and spacious room, good breakfast, shuttle service to Waterfront area.
The room and hotel in general wa was very clean. The location is excellent for visitors and tourists
Staff and cleanness of the hotel. However breakfast can be improved by having more varieties..
I am writing to share my appreciation for the incredible experience my family and I had at your hotel. The true heart of this establishment is undoubtedly its staff. Every interaction was exceptional, from the front-of-house team assisting with our bags and taxis to the welcoming reception staff. I would like to give a special mention to Nelson and Tiger for their hospitality, as well as the wonderful women in the restaurant who were so kind to my two young daughters. Our rooms were clean and spacious enough for a family of four, thanks to the friendly housekeeping team. We also thoroughly enjoyed the tasty breakfast each morning. A significant highlight of our stay was the concierge, Michael, who went the extra mile to help us book day trips and provided invaluable advice. Additionally, the shuttle service to the V&A Waterfront was extremely useful. Keith and the other gentleman driving the shuttle were patient, kind, and professional. While the location and price are great, it is the people who truly elevated our stay. Thank you for such a memorable visit
Tolle Lage, kostenloser Shuttlebus zur Waterfront, saubere, geräumige Zimmer, sehr umfangreiches Frühstücksbuffet.
Leider war der Rooftop-Pool während unseres Aufenthaltes wegen Renovierung geschlossen. Der Pool war mit ein Grund, wieso wir das Hotel gewält haben. Sehr schade...
Pleasant, helpful staff.
Water bottles impossible for me to open.
Some of the staff were friendly
I was served an alcoholic drink when I asked for mock tail
The room was clean and the beds very comfortable. The food was delicious. The staff very friendly.
The staff was very friendly and the food was great!
The temperature in the room was too warm, but after talking with the front desk, we were allowed to adjust it the second day.
profesional and acring staff
Food standards and service pretty good for a four star hotel. Location not on the waterfront but good to know the hotel provide a shuttle service to the waterfront area free of charge and very frequent.
There is nothing specific that we did not like. For a four star hotel the rooms, food outlets and staff service were excellent.
Not easy to get to on foot but a fantastically run hotel. The Staff are more than just friendly, everyone in the place has a smile and a conversation. The food in the restaurant is exceptional and the breakfast superb both in terms of variety and presentation. The rooms are spacious and well thought out, the shower is massive and water pressure good. Tea coffee and hair drying facilities are in the room. The plug sockets in SA are a little different from anywhere else I've been, but a word with reception and they provide an adaptor.
Room was clean, spacious, comfortable, and tastefully furnished. Though location is not on V&A waterfront, hotel is mere 5 to 8 minutes away by car. Complimentary hourly shuttle service is available from hotel to Silo Hotel from 10am. Excellent start from delightful welcome from Grant and Anele upon arrival. Grant made great effort and patiently showed me two rooms to ensure I will be comfortable; also showed me some guest facilities. Found Grant to excel in his work though he is new to his role; he is wonderfully guest centric in his approach, pleasant, speaks well, high in civility with great interpersonal skills. Surely well positioned to make great first impression for arriving guests. Grant has great potential to excel. Always lovely to return to hotel at end of the day and warmly welcomed by Khanya and team. He always asked about my daily activities. Great effort to engage guests. Thanks to Adrien for taking great care of my drinking water supply and his generous attention. Love Grant, Adrien, Khanya. Shuttle service operator, Andre also stood out strongly. Andre is intelligent, well experienced, careful shuttle driver, speaks well and shows great care for his passengers, and keeps timely departure from hotel and pick up from Silo Hotel. Interesting to hear about his life during the short drive to and from hotel. Love Andre. Thanks Abraham also for reliable service over two days. Thanks to Shumera for facilitating visit to Robben Island museum so efficiently considering Monday morning. Shumera cared to follow up by asking about my experience/ feedback after my visit. We had few big laughs that evening. Thanks to front desk team, Miso, Geniveve, David for efficient check in/ out and warm welcome. Thanks to attentive, efficient restaurant team - Tutu, Amaarah, Onelisiwe, Sibo, Luna, Nuraan, Ngabiwa, and all others for serving breakfast well Top Bonvoy experience since joining few years ago.
The friendly staff, the amazing breakfast. The attention to detail. Cleanliness was out of this world
Really cannot complain about a thing. Small point on arrival is the waiting periid for our room but that was understandable
The staff were all exceptionally friendly and helpful. Very good breakfast and spacious, comfortable rooms.
Breakfast very mediocre and location nowhere near the Waterfront .
Rooms very poorly equipped for the price and poor location
Cafe excelente
Good breakfast. Friendly staff.
Boa localização, o serviço do shuttle para o Waterfront é muito util e a equipe é super simpatica. O cafe da manha é gostoso, com varias opçoes. Ter agua disponivel no quarto foi muito bom tambem.
A internet não é muito estavel e a TV não funcionava. As camas eram confortaveis mas muito pequenas.
Muito bom
Location was perfect. They have a van to and from the waterfront. Pillows and bedding was perfect Hotel bar is a plus Breakfast was wonderful All staff was incredibly nice

Vi likte hotell lobbyen den var med både lounge og restaurant så vi var der på kvelden etter en lang dag på reise. Veldig bra de hadde skyttelbusser inn til Waterfront. Vi kunne gå også det gjorde jo dag 2 når solen kom. Store rom, men typisk business hotell i en stor by. Personalet var meget hyggelige og imøtekommende det satte vi stor pris på. Hotellet er greit for en natt ikke noe særlig lengre.
Badebassenget og soldekket var stengt, en heis var i uorden.
Ótima localização, serviço de van, funcionários muito simpáticos e atenciosos. Cama muito confortável.
O café da manhã nao tinha muitas opções de paes. O restante estava perfeito.
Quarto amplo e muito confortável. Funcionários muito atenciosos. Café da manhã muito bom com muitas opções. Recomendo
Não tem passagem direta para o Waterfront, então você tem que ir andando pelo canal ou pegar o transfer grátis que o hotel oferece de hora em hora. Como a noite é perigoso andar a pé tem que pegar o transfer te limitando nos horários. Apesar disso, para nós foi ótimo
Nearby everywhere
Quiet and clean
Location
The shower overflow at times .
The staff was amazing specially Samira and Adil
Reception and door staff welcome was amazing. Room big and clean, close to waterfront. Shuttle to take you to and from waterfront. Big star goes to the breakfast, full buffet of everything you could want plus a menu of additional cooked options.
Run the waterfront shuttle more often, 1 per hour not enough.
