6/10 Good

Service from night stuff was poor as they were not prepared for our stay, we found room dirty with other people spencer and sheets had Spains even after asking for them to be changed it was not changed. Breakfast was not served and they only refunded R300 for breakfast for 3 days which was not sufficient as we have booked for 4 people. We had to ask for microwave as other rooms had one

Not what description tells you

Hotel room was dirty, unmade room & towels were filthy. When told to reception they said it was cleaned and didn't seem to bother about the pictures I took to prove my findings. Description says breakfast included... this is WRONG, It was not given.

Hyvä sijainti Seapointissa. WiFi toimi melko heikosti, aamiainen varsin vaatimaton ja hygienia kyseenalaista.

8/10 Very good

hotel deroutant mais pres de plage

l''acces par un couloir sinistre un peu deroutant et le receptionniste mal rase mais sympa. La chambre avec une petite terrsse sans vue est tres calme et confortable bien sur ce n'ai pas le Rayton situe à 2 pas mais c'est pas le meme prix non plus. Nous avons pu nous promener sur la corniche de sea point situe à 2 pas avons diner au bar branche de rockpool pour 2 fois rien. Soiree sympa a la veille d'un retour en France

4/10 Fair

Great and friendly stuff but the luck of comfort in our room made it worse, breakfast was the same fried egg or scramble, we sleep on the mattress because there wasnt enough beds, curtain windows were also a disaster, not the best place for the price i paid.

4/10 Fair

Great location, badly managed

Staff friendly but unprofessional Flies all over at breakfast Garden service just walks onto balcony unannounced Need to leave own keys to get room service. Why they dont have extra sets of keys is beyond me 1 toilet roll supplied foe a family room ( bought our own) No complimentary soaps or just handwash 2 towels provided for a family room. When asking for more we were told they were still at the dry cleaners. When they arrived only small ones provided over an above the 2 big ones. Hot water was a problem. Can't regulate taps properly. Hot water ran out one evening only to discover they turned off the geyser. Same bland breakfast every single day. Random people manning reception - no accountability. Only spotted Shawn once after check in Badly managed place

2/10 Poor

Did not enjoy my stay

Did not enjoy this stay at all. Parking was an issue outside the hotel. By 17h30 my room had not been made up! After asking for this to be done, I was just moved to another room. On checking out at 07h30, there was nobody to assist with issuing an invoice. Overall - service does not exist.

6/10 Good

Potrebbe andare meglio!!

Hotel carino, a due passi da Sea Point, lungomare di Città del Capo. Collegato col centro città , dal porto V&A waterfront da diversi buses. Servito benissimo da ristoranti e localini simpatici e tipici. Le camere sono quasi tutte ristrutturate, forse dovrebbero avere maggiore accuratezza nella pulizia e nel servizio. La colazione NON è compresa nel prezzo, nonostante avessimo prenotato un stanza con colazione continentale. La wi- FI è gratuita ma non sempre collegata.

fine foe families

Nice staff but room cleaning was not done daily and was not cleaned thoroughly. Cheap and cheerful place to stay and worked for our family. Porch off our room was great for the children!

A simply hotel with all you need. Great location. Good value for money.

kan beter

Goed voor een 1 a 2 nachten, zeker niet langer. Donkere kamer, verouderd, personeel weet niet veel, weinig behulpzaam en komen afspraken niet na.

6/10 Good

Helt ok

Hotellet låg bra i Sea point bara 1 gata i från beachen och nära saltvattenpoolerna. Bra läge om du har bil som vi hade. Parkering på gatan utanför och hotellet höll koll på bilen, vi hade inga incidenter. Personalen var väldigt trevlig och hjälpsamma. Helt ok frukost med ägg, bacon, toast, yoghurt och kaffe. Rummet stort men utan air condition och ganska lyhört.

Pleasant Stay for a Week

For the price, we had a very nice stay. The room we had was nice and clean equipped with fresh, clean linens, TV, safety deposit box, clean towels, kettle, cups, tea and coffee, a patio. A hot breakfast was included every morning. There is paid parking on the street, which is fully covered by Casa Elena for its guests (you just have to register your vehicle at the front desk). Internet was fast. Location-wise, there are many restaurants and shops around the area. Tourists and locals alike mingle in the Seapoint area.

Netjes maar gedateerd .

Lokatie is lastig te vinden en in een rustig deel van de stad. Ruim ee uur lopen naar het Waterfront.

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect location - feel at home abroad!

Gute Lage, in sicherer Umgebung, nächst Strandpromenade, Pools. Restaurants & Läden nebenan, Zentrum etc. mit Bus sehr gut erreichbar. Mit Taxi vom/zum Flughafen ca 30 Rand (Stand Nov.15). Personal sehr freundlich & hilfsbereit. Super bequemes Bett, eigener Aussenbereich bei meinem Zimmer. Nicht alles super clean, dies ist aber okay für mich, man fühlt sich eben wie zuhause, auch wenn mal jemand Krach macht im Korridor ;-). Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Nette Eigentümer - Grüsse an alle, komme gerne wieder :-).

6/10 Good

Im guesthouse wurde renoviert. Wir erhielten bei später Ankunft ein nicht den Fotos von Expedia entsprechendes unrenoviertes Zimmer. Wand blätterte ab, Sofa verschmutzt, Teppich unsauber und an einer Seite eingerollt, also Stolperfalle....... Aufgrund unserer Beschwerde erhielten wir am darauf folgenden Tag ein neu renoviertes Zimmer. Der junge Mann an der Rezetion war sehr bemüht und freundlich, auch bei Ticketbeschaffung.

10/10 Exceptional

Sehr zu empfehlen

Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer mit eigenem Patio sauber und hübsch eingerichtet. Ideale Lage für einen Citytrip und sehr nahe an der Sea Point Promenade.
