Really good Stay Near Camps Bay Beach
helpful staffsea viewconvenient locationgood breakfast
the staff were helpful, assisting with directions and recommendations. i received a free upgrade to a luxury double room, it included a sea view (it was the nicest room i have ever stayed in!). the breakfast was good (especially the local fruits) and i found the location convenient for exploring the area.
i noticed very slight wear on some of the bathroom fixtures, it did not detract significantly from the overall experience, but it is worth noting.
Rooms

the luxury double room with a sea view included modern amenities such as a tv and an espresso machine. the room provided ample space for two people, and the bed linens were high-quality with a good selection of pillows.
Facilities

the hotel features a well-kept outdoor pool with comfortable lounge chairs and towel service (which i used every day). breakfast service was efficient and offered a wide selection of items, including fresh pastries and hot dishes, catering to various dietary needs.

The staff provided friendly service.
The face basin in the comfort room had black mould at the base. This was quite off-putting. A piece of furniture was also out of place. The toilet emitted a consistently bad smell.
