My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while spacious with two huge beds and views of Lion Head Rock, were clean and comfortable; however, there were some issues like tired and moldy bath sealant and stained carpets. The service, on one hand, was exceptional, going above and beyond to attend to our every need over the 7-night vacation, making us feel like family. Unfortunately, there were instances where the staff seemed lazy and unresponsive to guest requests. The location, being excellent at Sea Point and close to the seafront promenade, was convenient and offered beautiful views; however, encounters with rude guests tainted the overall experience. The dining experience was a bit of a hit or miss, with some enjoyable moments but at times feeling like a school cafeteria. Despite these drawbacks, the facilities were adequate, providing the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.

The hotel needs a lot of refurbishment work for the rooms to meet modern standards, but considering the rate, it's decent. Some issues like a broken door lock and fittings, water stains, stained carpet, and a dirty balcony exist. Service needs improvement, particularly the need for better service despite the room costs. Location is excellent, close to the beach and restaurants, offering a calm environment despite some overcrowding. The dining experience lacks certain items and timely service, primarily during breakfast.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location was prime, central to all my places of interest and highly accessible, making it great for both business and vacation travelers. The service went above and beyond to take care of every need over our 7-night vacation, treating us like family with warm smiles and great recommendations. The dining experience was ample with a wide selection of delicious dishes, but the breakfast could do with a bit more variety. The rooms were excellent, with lovely views and top-notch amenities, but a bit small and not as comfortable as expected.

My stay exceeded my expectations in many ways. The rooms were not the best at the beginning with the freezing cold and an awful first experience but they quickly fixed it by changing my room twice. The service was impeccable, they treated us like family, took care of every need we had, and provided excellent recommendations. The location was superb, close to everything including the beach promenade, but they need to work on getting the basics right and fixing scratches on walls. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with good staff and tasty food but lacking variety over multiple days. Overall, a value for money hotel with some areas needing improvement.
