A nice hotel. Don't be fooled by the name - it is not on the waterfront, but about a mile from it. However the hotel runs a free shuttle bus on the hour, and back on the half hour to the star of CapeTown, the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront Harbour and main shopping centre.
The breakfast is really good - spoilt for choice. Plenty of staff to bring you coffee and clear plates and tables etc.
The staff are all so friendly too.
Our room on the 14th floor had a magnificent view of the harbour area. The room was cleaned every day and the tea/coffee/milk replenished every day. Hotel bar prices are incredibly low compared to the UK, so a nice surprise.
Overall, we really enjoyed our visit to Cape Town, and the hotel was a cosy comfort from the unseasonably bad weather we experienced during the week.

Very good

The hotel was in a great location and was fanastic. Despite being only a 15 minute walk into the waterfront, there is a shuttle that can be used free of charge every hour. Drinks and food was very good and good pricing.

Superb reception and Breakfast staff.

The stay was comfortable. Reception and breakfast staff were superb. Housekeeping could be better. They knocked to clean our room before we went out for breakfast. We told them we will be out in 10 minutes. Indeed we were. We were down to breakfast only to come back to our room undone. We took a nap had a do not disturb before we went out. Went out after lunch time. Came back later still our room was not done. That was the only downside of our stay.

The staff were great. Couldnt be more helpful. Hotel was fine. Maybe due to SA power generation issues but the AC made a noise, but didnt seem to be cold. Other slight negative was that the hotel name says its at the Waterfront. But we were advised it wasnt safe to walk anywhere from hotel so had to rely extensively on Ubers. Which were very cheap. Overall would recommend.

Good Value

The breakfast and service is excellent! I just got off a cruise ship and my shower is smaller and there's no electric outlets in the bathroom. Its a good value and its a 20 minute walk to the V & A Waterfront

The hotel was ideally located for us to explore Cape Town and a very short walk from the V&A waterfront district. The hotel did offer a shuttle bus service but we wanted to walk and see everything. The breakfast and choice was excellent. The staff were very helpful, courteous and polite. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great Location.

I have stayed here a few times over the years but have not been back for a few years. The hotel is very well located at the bottom of city bowl and close to the waterfront. The rooms are well kitted out and clean. The hotel needs a little attention on upkeep generally but it is very good value. The breakfast was not a good as I remember.

Beds not Comfortable

Underwhelming and uncomfortable

Check-in was horrible, we tried to pay for an upgraded room, out of 3 rooms we had. It took 4 people and almost 30 minutes.
The rooms were small, and misleading in the advertisement. The beds were tiny and not suitable for two adults.
In addition, the food was less than average and the three vegans in the group went hungry. We had to bring our own milk and food for them.

This hotel overall was great. I think it was a good value for what I paid. It is very centrally located and the complementary shuttle to the V&A Waterfront was excellent. The breakfast was fantastic, there was a wide variety of food and beverages. The concierge service was great, they were a great help with everything from transportation to booking tours. The only thing that could have been just a little better was housekeeping services. On multiple occasions I had to individually request bathroom towels, face towels, shower gel, toilet tissue and an iron and ironing board. Those requests were made after my room was serviced for the day. Overall Cape Town is an amazing city, with very friendly and humorous people.

We loved having the concierge arrange a half day safari for us on our last day. He also helped us find a fabric store. We loved having the four star experience for the price of an average American hotel. I am sure we could have utilized his services more if only our stay had been longer. It was like having a personal assistant advising us on maximizing our trip.

The Hotel is clean and in a good location. Staff are friendly but are disorganised and don't co-ordinate. You can be waiting ages for service at breakfast or in the bar as they will get confused or simply forget. In some cases they will pass the order to someone else and then they get confused about who is supposed to be serving. Some days are better than others. I blame the management. Don't get me wrong the Hotel is not bad but be prepared for erratic and confused service.

Misrepresented

advertised as a waterfront hotel! this hotel is in the CBD of Cape Town. Total misrepresentation. The room was only big enough to take a small double bed with an uncomfortable soft mattress, no top sheet and a washed out throw at the bottom. Overpriced ..definitely not recommended, there are so many other better options.

Just don’t hesitate to stay here !!

A simply wonderful hotel made even better by the staff.
Don’t get me wrong the room was not anything special.
I would judge slightly better than a premier inn.
However the location, food, service and friendliness was exceptional. Add on the little touches like the free shuttle bus, willingness of the staff to spend time with you to give you give the best advice to ensure you get the best out of your stay and there genuine warmth & friendliness set the hotel apart.
The fact many of the aircrews stay at the Southern Sun stands testimony to the standard. It’s a 4 star hotel but I’ve certainly stayed in worse 5 star hotels !!!

A family of four, we chose the hotel through EXPEDIA (excellent hotel site and Price) for a week holidays and visited V&A, Table Mountain and Cape Point from the hotel. A free shuttle service every half an hour is provided by the hotel to the V&A waterfront and this is commendable. The main signature restaurant's food first night was quite a waste: meat not cooked properly and dessert (chocolate bomb) really bad. But, in room service is great and the food much better in terms of quality/price. Staff are overall courteous and friendly except one lady driving one of shuttle bus, whom we tried to avoid! Breakfast service can be slow but worst, staff can be unresponsive and seems that we being Mauritian (Indian origin) were apparently not treated as equal to other guests, as we had to request table tea/coffee service while others (I would not mention origin) were given priority! I would rate the overall satisfaction as around 65% BUT Customer Experience as only 30% (Net promoter Score) and probably not spontaneously recommend the hotel, that can be perceived as average value for money depending on expectations!

Great Value for Money near Waterfront and Downtown

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel conveniently located near the Waterfront and Downtown. We really appreciated the free shuttle to the Waterfront running every 15 minutes. The ride to the Waterfront is only 3 minutes. The staff did a great job customizing the room with baby essentials (crib, baby bath, baby soap, baby toys) for our little family. Breakfast was also very good and had many options. The hotel also has on-site car rental, which was very convenient. The backside of the hotel needs some refurbishment, though. Overall this hotel is great value for your money when staying in Cape Town for easy access to Waterfront and Downtown.

The concierge staff were amazing especially Melanie. We also liked Johnson. There was a guy at the front desk who was rude when we requested towels for our room. Also, I wouldn’t suggest using the cabs at the hotel. Everytime we took a cab from the hotel it was 3 times as much as getting a cab. It’s crazy because we used the same company but we paid $50 rand to go to long street and $50 rand to come back. The next day we left from the hotel to long street and were charged $150 rand.
